Introduction
Computers are now available anytime, anywhere, by different means, and
distributed unobtrusively throughout everyday environments in which
physical objects/artifacts embedded with invisible computers are sensible
and networked locally and globally. Such "any" computers open tremendous
opportunities to provide numerous novel services/applications in both real
world and cyber spaces, and exist ubiquitously in our daily life, working,
learning, traveling, entertainment, medicine, etc. Although it is yet
unclear what exactly the real-cyber integrated worlds would be, there is no
doubt that they must be safe.
The 4th IEEE International Symposium on Ubisafe Computing (UbiSafe-12) will
be held in conjunction with "The 11th IEEE International Conference on
Trust, Security and Privacy in Computing and Communications (IEEE
TrustCom-12)". It follows the success of UbiSafe-11 in Changsha, China. It
aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners in the world
working on theories and technologies for ubiquitous artifacts to function
safely for different purposes; for ubiquitous systems to work safely in
various situations; and for ubiquitous environments to behave safely with
all people.
Scope and Interests
IEEE UbiSafe-12 is an international symposium for presenting and discussing
emerging ideas and trends in aspects of UbiSafe computing, but are not
limited to:
(1) Fundamentals
UbiSafe concepts, definitions, basic elements, models, frameworks and
methodologies, human-centric paradigms,
multi-disciplinary/inter-disciplinary/trans-disciplinary approaches,
semantics, ontologies, UbiSafe requirements and formal specifications and
validations, information assurance, etc.
(2) Technologies
Security and privacy protection, reliability and fault tolerance, risk
analysis, uncertainty and exception handling, socially intelligent agents,
intuitive/natural user interface, interaction design, context-awareness,
intelligent computing, service-oriented computing, hardware, software,
middleware, etc.
(3) Systems
Embedded systems, wearable systems, augmented systems, context-based
systems, communication systems, safety-critical systems, survivable
systems, persistent systems, autonomous/autonomic systems, proactive
systems, network infrastructure, sensor networks, etc.
(4) Applications
Smart objects, smart environments, information appliance and artifacts,
everyday gadgets, robots, safety care, healthcare, medical care and
services, working, learning, traveling, entertainment, case studies, etc.
(5) Measures and Assessments
UbiSafe attributes and measures for safety, trust, faith, amenity,
easiness, comfort, satisfaction and worry, UbiSafe levels and relations,
UbiSafe quality, assessment criteria and authority, subjective and
objective assessment standards, evaluation methodologies, testing,
measuring and monitoring tools, etc.
(6) Human Factors and Social Issues
Human and social aspects of UbiSafe, UbiSafe sources and factors, social
rules, regulations and laws, human factors, human behavior analysis,
modeling of human feelings, traditional and cultural issues, ethical
issues, etc.
Submission and Publication Information
The accepted papers from this symposium will be published by IEEE Computer
Society in IEEE TrustCom-12 conference proceedings (indexed by EI
Compendex). Papers should be written in English conforming to the IEEE
conference proceedings format (8.5" x 11", Two-Column). Papers should be
submitted through the paper submission system at the symposium website.
Each paper is limited to 6 pages (or 8 pages with the over length charge).
Distinguished papers, after further revisions, will be published in special
issues indexed by SCI and EI. Submitting a paper to the symposium means
that, if the paper is accepted, at least one author should attend the
symposium and present the paper.
Important Dates
(1) Submission Deadline: 01 March, 2012
(2) Authors Notification: 08 April, 2012
(3) Final Manuscript Due: 08 May, 2012
(4) Registration Due: 08 May, 2012
(5) Conference Dates: 25-27 June, 2012
