=============</span></p>
<p style="margin:0cm;text-align:justify;text-indent:22.7pt;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Smart cities (also
smarter cities) use digital technologies to enhance performance and wellbeing,
to reduce costs and resource consumption, and to engage more effectively and
actively with its citizens. Developing a smart city to better support growing
urban population is a global and complex challenge and involves
interdisciplinary fields. Key ‘smart’ sectors include transportation, smart
building, energy, health care, and water systems. SmartCity-2025 is aiming to
be a premier international conference in smart city. This conference is to
bring together computer scientists, industrial engineers and researchers to
discuss and exchange experimental or theoretical results, novel designs,
work-in-progress, experience, case studies, and trend-setting ideas in the area
of smart city.</p>
<p style="margin:0cm;text-align:justify;text-indent:22.7pt;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"><span style="font-size:11pt">SmartCity-2025 will be hosted in Exeter, the capital
city of Devon and provides the county with a central base for education,
medicine, religion, commerce and culture. Prospective authors are invited to
submit their papers to SmartCity-2025. All accepted papers are expected to be
included in IEEE Xplore and will be indexed by Engineering Index (EI). The
authors of selected best papers will be invited post conference to extend their
contributions for special issues of prestigious journals to be planned in conjunction
with the conference.</span></p>
