CFP -- Smart and Connected Health (SCH) Symposium @ COMPSAC 2019,
Milwaukee, USA; Submissions Due 21 January 2019
https://ieeecompsac.computer.org/2019/477-2/

The goal of the Smart and Connected Health (SCH) symposium is to provide
an international forum connecting data, people and systems towards the
development and integration of innovative computer, software and
applications supporting the transformation of health and medicine.
Advances in communications, computer, and medical technology have
facilitated the practice of personalized health, which utilizes sensory
computational communication systems to support improved and more
personalized healthcare and healthy lifestyle choices. The proliferation
of broadband wireless services, along with more powerful and convenient
handheld devices, is helping to introduce real-time monitoring and
guidance for a wide array of patients. Research community and industry are
now connecting medical care with technology developers, vendors of
wireless and sensing hardware systems, network service providers, and data
management communities.

The symposium encourages research and breakthrough ideas in areas of smart
and connected health such as networking, pervasive computing, analytics,
sensor integration, privacy and security, socio-behavioral models, and
cognitive processes and system and process modeling. The forum will
increase more awareness of the constraints arising from clinical and
medical needs, barriers to change, heterogeneity of data, semantic
mismatch and limitations of current cyber-physical systems and an aging
population.

The SCH symposium seeks inter-disciplinary collaborative research that
leads to new fundamental insights; and encourages empirical validation of
new concepts through research prototypes, ranging from specific components
to entire systems. It will open collaborations between academic, industry,
and other organizations to establish better linkages between fundamental
science, medicine and healthcare practice and technology development,
deployment and use.


Submissions could consist of theoretical/applied research in topics
including, but not limited to:
•	Smart intervention for prevention of diseases
•	Smart and Connected Health –Wellness and Prevention to Acute and Chronic
Care
