https://smartcomp.isis.vanderbilt.edu/
June 26-30, 2023, Nashville, Tennessee

***** DEADLINE EXTENSION: 29 NOVEMBER 2022 *****

SMARTCOMP 2023 is the 9th edition of the premier conference on Smart Computing and will be
held in Nashville, Tennessee, hosted by Vanderbilt University, hopefully as a fully in
presence event.

Smart Computing is a multidisciplinary domain based on the synergistic influence of
advances in sensor-based technologies, Internet of Things, 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, industrial systems, entertainment, and social media.
SMARTCOMP 2023 will provide an international technical forum for experts from industry
and academia to exchange ideas and present results of on-going research in most
state-of-the-art areas of computing, sensing, and communications in heterogeneous
application domains.

The Workshops co-chairs of SMARTCOMP 2023 invite proposals for half or full day workshops
affiliated with the conference, held in Nashville, Tennessee during June 26-30, 2023.
The purpose of the workshops is to stimulate discussions on state-of-the-art, emerging,
visionary, and also controversial topics in the area of Smart Computing, and to create new
opportunities for attendees' interactions in a less formal and more sharply focused context
than at the conference itself. Therefore, workshops should be organized to promote lively
interactions, and appropriate plans should be described in the written workshop proposals.
Papers presented in the SMARTCOMP 2023 workshops will be included in the conference proceedings
and in IEEE Xplore.

The organizers of the accepted workshops are required to publicize the workshop through
disseminating the call for papers, soliciting submissions, organizing the review process,
and deciding upon the final workshop program. At least one organizer should be physically
present at the workshop in the case of SMARTCOMP will take place at least partially in
presence and there will be no travel restrictions due to the pandemic situation.
