CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
======================================================

Smart spaces, such as smart cities, are proliferating into a massive scale, thereby, IoT data, services and applications are being pressed to move to the Cloud. IoT Cloud integration has been recently extended from the core of the network to the edge of the network (i.e., Fog Computing) to address better mobility support, location-awareness and low latency. Developing applications using cloud and fog computing resources introduces
many challenges with respect to programming, networking, and service abstraction and distribution. In particular, in large-scale IoT applications with massive number of services, the way to model, develop and distributed services at device-, fog-, and cloud-levels is a top priority design challenge in this area. Topics include but are not limited to:

- Fog computing distributed architectures and frameworks
- Programming models and abstractions for Fog
- Dynamic programming models for Fog
- Fog-level task and service modeling and distribution
- Large-scale deployments and Fog
- Distributed resource management models for Fog
- Cloud and Fog integration
- Middleware for Fog infrastructures
- Fog mobility
- Performance (low latency and scalability)
- Heterogeneity and Interoperability of Fog devices
