Special Session on: Intelligent Systems for Smart Life (ISSL 2016)
http://egyptscience.net/AISI2016/SS2.html
Under the framework of the 2nd International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Systems and Informatics (AISI’16), http://egyptscience.net/AISI2016/
Cairo, Egypt, October 24-26, 2016
==============================================
Background:
In the modern world, each day brings facts and information and that determines the need for efficient intelligent systems that are able to tackle real-life challenges .Therefore intelligent Systems are becoming a consolidated discipline, which aims to improve various existing approaches in real world problems. Intelligent systems are emerging as a concept where every sensor, device, person, vehicle, building, and street in the areas can be used as a component to probe intelligent social space for serving people and their lives. One of the important research challenges today is to develop intelligent systems to enhance both human life and environment smartly through a recurrent process of sensing, mining, understanding, and improving. Intelligent systems and smart devices aim to understand the nature and behavior of a real world application as in healthcare, military, and environmental applications. Intelligent systems with smart devices and spaces can help the independence and executive functions, social communication as well as the security of people with special needs. This special session aims to use of artificial intelligence techniques and the concept of smart networks to support people’s daily life activities by allowing independency using intelligent systems within smart environments. The focus of this special session will be on theory, design, computational methods, techniques, and algorithms of intelligent systems in smart spaces.Original contributions, not currently under review to another journal or conference, are solicited in relevant areas including, but not limited to:

Topics of interest:
· Intelligent Systems on Mobile, and Wireless Communication

· Intelligent Systems for Social Welfare
