===============================================================================


Building smart cities require multi-disciplinary teams composed of researchers
and practitioners working together to solve urban computing and smart city
service problems. Coping with emerging challenges in engineering diverse
complex cyber systems for smart cities requires the use of state-of-the-art
technologies and solutions in smart sensing/devices/materials, IoT, networking,
cloud computing, big data, and mobile cloud services, to build innovative smart
city services and application systems. IEEE Smart City Innovations(IEEE SCI 2017)
is set up to provide a unique platform for multi-disciplinary researchers and
teams, industry solution vendors, and government agencies to exchange innovative
ideas, challenges, research results and solutions, as well as project experience
reports and stories. IEEE SCI 2017 will include a highly selective program of
technical papers, accompanied by workshops, demos, panel discussions and keynote
speeches. We welcome high-quality papers that describe original and unpublished
research on the real issues, challenges and needs in building smart cities for
now and future.
