Special Issue on Personalization and Situation Awareness in Smart Environments
Springer (ISSN 1868-5145)   

Call for Papers

A smart environment is a digitally augmented physical ecosystem in which 
pervasive and non-invasive instrumented
objects are intelligently perceptive and responsive to its inhabitants state. 
Smart infrastructures enable the extraction of
knowledge from users and systems, by relying on non-intrusively acquired data 
coming from ubiquitous sensing
devices. On top of this knowledge, user-centric paradigms aim at getting to 
know and learning about the users, to adapt
and personalize services and applications to their preferences and needs. In a 
complementary way, environment-centric
paradigms exploit information pursuing the holistic understanding of the smart 
spaces status and its evolution, through
situation analysis techniques, to enhance perception and decision making of 
global management services.

This Special Issue aims at gathering recent technology trends and advances in 
the supportive technologies for
personalization and situation awareness in smart spaces. In particular, we 
invite the submission of high-quality papers
reporting late-breaking research on:
 Methodologies and tools for end-user creation of personalized smart 
environments.
 Machine learning techniques to automatically detect users needs and 
objectives.
 Sensors, actuators and smart objects for personalization: devices and 
infrastructures.
 Data fusion, reasoning and forecasting tools for situational awareness in 
smart environments.
 Situation awareness through mobile social and participatory technologies.
 Novel concepts of situation-aware services in the smart city (e.g. energy, 
traffic and public transportation,
public services, event management, emergencies, etc.).
 Use of personalization in smart persuasive applications in different domains 
(e.g. personal health, assisted
living, tourism, etc.).
 Test-beds and real-world deployments and user evaluation of smart services 
based on personalization features
or situational awareness.
 Value co-creation processes for smart service design.
