URBANCOMPUTING 2016 - International Symposium on Emerging Frontiers of Urban Computing and Smart Cities

City complexity, citizen mobility, diversity of citizen-oriented services and smart technologies represent new aspects in developing urban-related applications. While smart devices and methodologies are the basis for city environments, fundamentals on city navigation and generalization of Internet of Things, metering, data gathering, and urban computing raise challenging aspects.
URBAN COMPUTING 2016, The International Symposium on Emerging Frontiers of Urban Computing and Smart Cities, is dedicated to advances and challenges on the following urban computing and gathering city data.
Topics:
COMPUTING
Navigating the Urban jungle with SmartPhones
Crowdsourced data acquisition in the City
Enhancing City quality of life through mobile services
Urban computing and the Internet of Things
User-data interaction (interfaces, tools, other “sense-making” applications for users to use, mesh or create data)
Using data in heterogeneous environments (towards standard on system integration in Urban computing)
Urban Computing and Smart Cities
METERING
Metering infrastructure and Smart Cites
Architectures and protocols for (wireless) smart metering
