2017 - 3th International Forum on Research and Technologies for Society and Industry

Smart cities can be considered complex digital ecosystems, where the recent advances on Information and Communication technologies (ICT) foster new applications and services for citizens and industries. The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the main enabler of the smart city, since it provides the technologies to sense the environment, to connect physical devices and to gather data all over the scenario. Similarly, several mobile applications have been deployed today in order to visual such data, to implement crowd-sensing techniques, and to translate the gathered (big) data into ICT services that can be accessed pervasively. This technical session aims to bring together researchers and practitioners interested in discussing and presenting the most recent research activities in the field of mobile and IoT applications which can result into novel services for citizens and industries in next smart cities.
