================================================================
2nd EAI International Conference on
Smart Objects and Technologies for Social Good (GOODTECHS 2016)
NOVEMBER 30-DECEMBER 1, 2016 | VENICE, ITALY
http://goodtechs.eu/
================================================================
In GOODTECHS we are interested in experiences with the design,
implementation, deployment, operation and evaluation of smart objects
and technologies for social good. Clearly, we are not considering only
the so called first world as the scenario for this evolution; we also
refer to those areas where ICT is currently less widespread, hoping that
it may represent a societal development opportunity rather than a source
for further divide.
Authors are solicited to submit original, previously unpublished papers
in the following, but not limited to, topic areas:
* App concepts and technologies for different mobile platforms
* E-learning solutions
* Smart governance and e-administration
* Smart economy solutions
* Smart living and E-health
* Data collection, organization and dissemination methods
* Delay-tolerant aerial networks and ferrying approaches
* Deployment and field-testing
* Experimental results of communication testbeds
* Game, entertainment, and multimedia applications
* Human-object interaction
* Mobile service architectures and frameworks
* Pervasive and ubiquitous services in cloud and IoT
* Platforms and frameworks for mobile devices
* Security, Privacy and Anonymity
* Smart cities and transportation
* ICT for development
* Digital tools for art and feelings
* Technology addressing the digital divide
* Environment sensing, monitoring and preservation
