SuCDA’22: 6th Workshop on Smart Ubiquitous Context: Service Discovery & Adaptation

Paper submission deadline: November 1, 2021

In conjunction with the 13th International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks and Technologies
ANT 2022
Porto, Portugal (March 22 - 25, 2022)

The Smart Ubiquitous domain has become a major paradigm for distributed smart applications and services running over wireless networks of embedded mobile devices. Their ever growing interest and the evolution in uses bring new challenges and practical research problems. In particular, the massive adoption of mobile and wireless devices, and the evolution of mobile environments, raise more and more attention to smart context-aware cloud service discovery and adaptation. Such fully smart context-aware and user-centric systems in terms of architecture and applications face many challenges and call for new designs, algorithms, protocols, web and cloud technologies, privacy models, cloud services and distributed applications. The goal of the SuCDA 2022 workshop is to serve as a forum for researchers or professionals from both academia and industry to exchange new ideas, discuss new solutions, and share their experiences in the design, implementation, analysis, experiment or measurement related to Internet of Things, and Service Discovery and Adaptation.

Important dates
