INTRODUCTION
=============

Over the last fifty years, computational intelligence has evolved from
logic-based artificial intelligence, nature-inspired soft computing,
and social-oriented agent technology to cyber-physical integrated
ubiquitous intelligence towards Pervasive Intelligence (PI). The
International Conference on Pervasive Intelligence and Computing is
intended to cover all kinds of these intelligent paradigms as well as
their applications in various pervasive computing domains. PICom-2018
is the conference on Pervasive Intelligence and Computing, previously
held as PCC (Las Vegas, USA, 2003 and 2004), PSC (Las Vegas, USA,
2005), PCAC (Vienna, Austria, 2006, and Niagara Falls, Canada, 2007),
IPC-2007 (Jeju, Korea, December 2007), IPC-2008 (Sydney, Australia,
December 2008), and since 2009 as the name PICom. IEEE PICom 2018 will
be held on 12-15 August 2018 in Athens, Greece, co-located with IEEE
CyberSciTech 2018, IEEE DASC 2018 and DataCom 2018. It aims to bring
together computer scientists and engineers, to discuss and exchange
experimental and theoretical results, work-in-progress, novel designs,
and test-environments or test-beds in the important areas of Pervasive
Intelligence and Computing.

PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINE
==========================

Authors are invited to submit their original research work that has
not previously been published or under review in any other venue.
Papers should be prepared in IEEE CS Proceedings format and submitted
via EDAS systems (https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=24494). Research
papers should explore a specific technology problem and propose a
complete solution to it, with experimental results. A regular (full)
paper is between 6-8 pages. A WiP, workshop, or special session paper
should be between 4-6 pages and a poster paper should be between 2-4
pages. Some papers originally submitted as full can be accepted as
short papers or posters during the review process. In such cases, the
authors will need to reduce the paper accordingly when preparing the
camera-ready version. At least one of the authors of any accepted
paper is requested to register and present the paper at the
conference.



SPECIAL ISSUES
==========================
Extended versions of selected excellent papers will be considered for
fast-track publication in regular or special issues of prestigious
journals. The following journals are already confirmed:

1 - Information Fusion - Elsevier - Impact Factor: 5.667
(https://www.journals.elsevier.com/information-fusion/)
2 - World Wide Web journal - Springer (www.Springer.com/11280 ) -
Special Issue on Smart Computing and Cyber Technology for Cyberization
3 - MDPI Sensors
(http://www.mdpi.com/journal/sensors/special_issues/Pervasive_Intelligence_Computing)
-  Special Issue on "Pervasive Intelligence and Computing"
