[Jaime Lloret Mauri]

Call for Papers for
Symposium on Selected Areas in Communications - eHealth Track,
2016 IEEE Global Communications Conference (Globecom 2016)

Scope and Motivation

O The Symposium on Selected Areas in Communications - eHealth Track provides a forum for discussion of recent developments, bringing together researchers, scientists, engineers, academicians and students all around the world to share the latest updates on new technologies and applications that would shape the next generation of networks and systems related with medicine and healthcare. eHealth technologies play an important role in medical solutions and healthcare. New solutions continue to be developed to create safer health care environments. The rapid growth of using such devices and technologies in medical fields has created new opportunities for emerging application development. However, enormous challenges still remain to be resolved in order to develop flexible, reliable, secure, and power-efficient networks suitable for medical needs. 

This track invites participation from both academic and industry researchers working in any aspect related to eHealth. Authors are invited to submit original technical papers on any of the following main topics of interest (but are not limited to):

•	Autonomic Diagnosis and Situation Awareness (Fall, Activity, etc.)
•	Biomedical and biosensors engineering
•	Body sensor networks and wearable sensor systems
•	Clinical biofeedback
•	Clinical decision support systems and tools
•	Context Awareness and Autonomous Computing for AAL (Ambient Assisted Living)
•	eHealth information and network Infrastructure
•	eHealth oriented Software Architectures (Agent, SOA, Middleware, etc.)
•	eHealth virtual and augmented reality
•	Emerging eHealth applications
•	Health grid and health cloud
•	Health monitoring and traffic characterization
•	Healthcare management
•	ICT-enabled personal health system
•	Image and video processing on eHealth
•	Molecular Sensor Communications
•	Pervasive and ubiquitous computing on eHealth
•	Security, trust, and privacy on eHealth
•	Social aspects of eHealth
•	Telemedicine and mobile telemedicine
•	Usability and Acceptability
•	Wireless medical device systems and effectiveness
•	Communication protocols and algorithms for eHealth
