INTRODUCTION

Over the last fifty years, computational intelligence has evolved from
artificial intelligence, nature-inspired computing, and
social-oriented technology to cyber-physical integrated ubiquitous
intelligence towards Pervasive Intelligence (PI). The IEEE
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-2023
is the conference on Pervasive Intelligence and Computing. 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 testbeds in the important areas of
Pervasive Intelligence and Computing. PICom 2023 invites original
papers addressing all aspects related to Pervasive Intelligence and
Computing.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:

Deep Learning and Deep Computation
Big Data and Smart Data
Brain-inspired Computing
Crowdsourcing and Social Computing
Collective Intelligence
Agent-based Computing
Ubiquitous Intelligence
Cyber-Physical Computing
The Internet of Things
Edge Intelligence
Embedded HW, SW and Systems
Pervasive Devices and RFIDs
Wearable Devices and Applications
Sensor Technology and Networks
Pervasive Networks/Communications
Edge and Fog Computing
Device Virtualization
Privacy, Security and Trust
Context-Aware Computing
Mobile Data Mining
Ubiquitous Data Mining
Activity Recognition
Intelligent Cloud Computing
Services for Pervasive Computing
Smart Cities and Smart Homes
Intelligent Social Networking
Pervasive Technologies for ITS
HCI for Pervasive Computing
Middleware for Pervasive Computing
Intelligent/Smart IoT
Programming Abstractions for IoT

The 2023 edition of IEEE PICom will be organized in research tracks.
Therefore, papers should be submitted to a single track, the one that
better fits their subject, from the following:

Track 1: Computational Intelligence

Track 2: Intelligent Networks, Middleware and Applications

Track 3: Pervasive Computing and Activity/Affect Recognition

Track 4: Smart Object, Environment, System and City

Track 5: Edge Intelligence

 In addition to the Technical sessions, we will have a workshop and a
special session on highly relevant and timely topics. Calls for papers
for the workshop and technical session are on their respective
websites:

 Special Session on Distributed Machine Learning for Edge/Fog
Computing: Challenges and Future Directions –

 =====================IMPORTANT DATES=============================
Main Conference Papers
Paper Submission Due: (Final) 21 August, 2023
Authors Notification: 15 September, 2023
Camera-ready Submission: 30 September, 2023

=====================SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS======================

Authors are invited to submit their original research work that has
not previously been submitted or published in any other venue.
Regular, work-in-progress (WiP), workshop/special session, and poster
papers need to be submitted via Easychair
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dascpicomcbdcomcyber0

Please select the respective track/WS/SS when submitting the paper.

 Papers should be prepared in IEEE CS Proceedings format. IEEE
formatting information:
http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html

 Regular Papers: 6-8 pages

WiP/Workshop/Special Session Papers: 4-6 pages

Posters: 2-4 pages

All accepted papers in the main tracks, workshops, special sessions
and demos/posters will be published in an IEEE Computer Society
proceedings (IEEE-DL and EI indexed). Best Paper Awards will be
presented to high quality papers.

Some papers originally submitted as full papers 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. If it is not
possible for any of the authors to present the paper in person, online
presentation or video recording will be allowed.
