First Call for Papers
13th International Conference on Intelligent Environments (IE’17)
21-25th August 2017, Seoul, Korea

Intelligent Environments (IEs) refer to physical spaces into which IT
and other pervasive computing technology are woven and used to achieve
specific goals for the user, the environment or both. IEs have the
ultimate objective of enriching user experience, better manage, and
increase user awareness of, that environment. The 13th International
Conference on Intelligent Environments (IE’17) will be held at Seoul,
the capital and largest metropolis of the Republic of Korea.

Conference Program: The conference provides a multidisciplinary
collaborative forum for researchers and practitioners from Computer
Science, Electronic Engineering, Building Architecture, Art & Design,
Sociology, Government and Education to present theoretical and practical
results related to the development and applications of Intelligent
Environments. The event will include regular full/short papers as well
as a Doctoral Colloquium, a Posters Session and Demos & Videos Session.

Workshops Program: as in previous editions, a number of workshops during
the first two days (21-22 August) will complement the main conference
program. Papers accepted in any of the workshops sponsored by this
conference will be included in one Proceedings volume that will collect
the contributions in all workshops, see more details in the publications
section.


Publications:  All papers accepted in the main conference will be
published in internationally indexed proceedings (negotiations are
currently underway with the IEEE, who published the proceedings of
previous editions of the conference).  All papers accepted in the
Workshops program will be published as a volume of the Ambient
Intelligence and Smart Environments Series (ISI indexed) by IOS Press,
which will also be Open Access, and be made electronically available
through the ACM Digital Library.

Journal Special Issues:  a number of journal special issues will be
published subsequently, encompassing core areas of the event. We have
guarantees of special issues from the editorial boards of the Journal of
Ambient Intelligence and Smart Environments (JAISE). More special issues
will be announced.

Industrial Forum: this will be a networking event providing an
opportunity for the business sector to showcase their innovations.

Tutorials Programme: for this edition we will include a number of
tutorials by well-known colleagues on important topics.

Special Sessions: There will be a selection of “special sessions” on
particular topical themes within the main conference. These will include
sessions on "Ambient Intelligence for Elderly or Cognitively Impaired
People", on “Robotics and Intelligent Environments” and on “Advanced
Human Augmentation”.  More details will be released through the webpage
of the event.

Awards: a number of awards will recognize the best Full Paper, Short
Paper, Doctoral Colloquium paper, Demo, and Video.
