OVERVIEW
The future smart and sustainable cities need to solve many challenges at different levels: social, political, environmental, economical and technical. Cities around the world are becoming connected cities, becoming ground of experiments for different actors such as industries and public administrations, but also a new object of the urban policies. The use of Information and Communication Technologies is growing every day in the north as well as in the south, in rich countries as well as in poor countries; yet humans, society and environment have to be kept in the loop. A multidisciplinary approach of Smart Cities challenges is therefore mandatory to ensure that citizens are at the center, and actors engaged in the various experiments involved in different projects.
This year, the main topic of the workshop on Smart and Sustainable Cities will focus on the roles of citizens and inhabitants or end-users in the challenges of future smart and sustainable cities and their impacts at different levels, from social dimension to technological innovations. The role of this categories changes radically with the massive use of new technologies. Yesterday, the end-user was only a passive user. Nowadays, the inhabitants, the citizens, the workers are discreet actors of the Smart and Sustainable City. The different projects developed by the municipalities or the big economic and industrial actors require the transformation the transformation from passive users to discreet actors.
The workshop aims to bring together researchers/academics/industries from different disciplines to discuss smart and sustainable cities applications, from their societal and technological impacts to their design and deployment. Multi- and inter-disciplinary works written with a broad interdisciplinary audience in mind are appreciated.

SUBMISSION
Submitted papers will follow the same size and organization than the main event. Information are available here: http://cse.stfx.ca/~smartworld/2017/smartworld/ps.php
Submission will be managed through easychair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ieeeswc2017 in the Smart and Sustainable City track.
Accepted papers by both workshops & special sessions will be included in the SmartWorld 2017 proceedings published by IEEE (submitted to the IEEE-DL and EI index).
Each submission should be regarded as an undertaking that if the paper is accepted, then at least one of the authors must register to the conference and present the work for the paper to be included in the IEEE Digital Library.
Best Workshop Paper Awards will be presented to high quality workshop papers, selected from all workshops in conjunction withSmartWorld 2017.
Extended versions of papers will be considered for publication in special issues of several journals.
