SmartCity 2019 - 17th IEEE International Conference on Smart City (SmartCity-2019)

A smart city (also smarter city) uses digital technologies to enhance performance and wellbeing, to reduce costs and resource consumption, and to engage more effectively and actively with its citizens. Developing a smart city to better support growing urban population is a global and complex challenge and involves interdisciplinary fields. Key ‘smart’ sectors include transportation, cloud computing, networking, smart building, energy, health care, and water systems.
IEEE SmartCity-2019 is aiming to be a premier international conference in smart city. This conference is to bring together computer scientists, industrial engineers and researchers to discuss and exchange experimental or theoretical results, novel designs, work-in-progress, experience, case studies, and trend-setting ideas in the area of smart city include all aspects of smart city with emphasis on algorithms, systems, models, compilers, architectures, tools, design methodologies, test and applications. Extended versions of selected best papers will appear in SCIE-indexed international journals, such as IEEE Internet of Things Journal (IF:5.863), IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics (IF:5.43), Information Sciences (IF:4.305), Neurocomputing (IF:3.241) and Software: Practice and Experience (IF:1.338).
SmartCity-2019 will be hosted in Zhangjiajie. It is the first national forest park in China and one of the most important tourist cities in China.It is located in the northwest of Hunan province, about 400 kilometers away from Changsha, the capital of Hunan province, covering a total area of 9,563 square kilometers, of which 76% are mountainous area. Zhangjiajie was listed into the World Natural Heritage Catalogue by the UNESCO in 1992. Zhangjiajie was awarded the title of “World Geological Park” in 2004.
Prospective authors are invited to submit their papers to SmartCity-2019. All accepted papers are expected to be included in IEEE Xplore and will be indexed by Engineering Index (EI). The authors of selected best papers will be invited post conference to extend their contributions for special issues of prestigious journals to be planned in conjunction with the conference.
