**********************************************************************************

SMARTCOMP 2021, the 7th edition of the conference, will be held in Irvine, 
Orange County, California, USA. SMARTCOMP is the premier conference on smart 
computing. Smart computing, a multidisciplinary domain is based on the 
synergistic influence of advances in Sensor-based technologies, the Internet of 
Things (IoT), Cyber-Physical Systems, Edge computing, Big Data analytics, 
Machine Learning, Cognitive Computing, and Artificial Intelligence.

Applications of smart computing can be found in different societal domains 
including, but not limited to, transportation, energy, environmental 
protection, smart and connected communities, healthcare, banking, 
entertainment, and social media. Algorithmic and system advancements of cloud 
computing, mobile/pervasive computing, cyber-physical systems, sensor 
networking and social computing are taking smart computing to a new dimension 
and improving our ways of living. Selected papers from SMARTCOMP 2021 will be 
considered for publication in Elsevier’s Journal of Pervasive and Mobile 
Computing.

It is planned to have the conference in Irvine, Orange County, California, USA. 
However, there is a possibility of moving to either a hybrid or fully online 
mode depending on the pandemic situation.


TOPICS
SMARTCOMP 2021 solicits submissions that address the fundamental questions of 
smart computing, namely how to design and build scalable and reliable smart 
computing systems, and how to use computing technology for resource 
sustainability to improve the human experience. Topics include, but not limited 
to the following:

* Future Smart Computing Paradigms
* Models of Smart Environments
* Algorithms for Smart Computing
* AI and Machine Learning in Smart Computing
* Security, Privacy, and Trust issues in Smart Computing
* Fairness and Socio-technical issues of Smart Computing
* Cyber-physical System Platforms for Smart Environments
* Middleware Platforms for Smart Environments
* Mobile and Ubiquitous Platforms for Smart Environments
* Cloud, Edge and Fog Computing Platforms for Smart Systems
* Data Architectures and Analytics for Smart Computing
* Applications of Smart Computing

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Paper submissions must be no longer than 8 pages (the page count limit includes 
the references list) and formatted according to the two-column IEEE proceedings 
template. IEEE provides corresponding formatting templates at *IEEE conference 
template*. Make sure to use the conference mode of the template, i.e., LaTeX 
users must use the conference option of the IEEEtran document class.

Papers must be submitted electronically as a single PDF file on US Letter size

that), through EDAS.

All submitted papers will be subject to peer reviews by Technical Program 
Committee members and other experts in the field. All presented papers will be 
published in the conference proceedings and submitted to the IEEE Xplore 
Digital Library.

Extended versions of selected high quality papers accepted in IEEE SMARTCOMP 
2021 will be considered for publication in the Elsevier's Pervasive and Mobile 
Computing journal.
