ICTS4eHealth
2018 - 3rd edition of the IEEE International Workshop on ICT
Solutions for e-Health
Praiamar
Natal Hotel & Convention, Natal, Brazil
June
25-28 2018 - www.icts4ehealth.icar.cnr.it
in
conjunction with the Twenty-Third IEEE Symposium on Computers
and Communications
MISSION:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
e-Health
is one of the major research topics that have been attracting
cross-disciplinary research groups. The deployment of new
emerging ICT technologies for Health, especially based on
Cloud computing, Internet of Things (IoT), and Computational
Intelligence, is attracting the interest of many researchers.
The
use of Cloud computing, IoT technologies, and methods typical
of Soft Computing and Computational Intelligence have been
very prominent recently and can be of great help in finding
good solutions to many practical healthcare applications.
For
instance, health monitoring, health data storage, health data
collection, mobile health, pervasive health, healthcare
monitoring, telemedicine, context-aware computing, ubiquitous
computing, processing health data in the cloud, securing
health data in the cloud and Assistive Technology (AT) are
areas of interest that are being addressed using cloud
computing and IoT techniques. On the other hand, several
challenging issues have raised due to the adoption of such
emerging technologies. These include the quality of health
data, the ability to retrieve information and use it in health
context, as for example in tasks related to machine learning,
knowledge discovery, decision support, regression,
forecasting, optimization, feature selection, and additionally
privacy and security issues of health data while being
processed in the cloud, availability of health data, models of
context and tele-monitoring of contextual applications.
ICTS4eHealth
2018 is the third edition of the International IEEE Workshop
dedicated to ICT solutions for e-Health, especially based on
Cloud computing, Internet of Things (IoT), and Computational
Intelligence.
The
workshop will bring together researchers from academia,
industry, government, and medical centers in order to present
the state of the art in the emerging area of the use of cloud
systems in connected health infrastructure and applications,
and the use of IoT and Computational Intelligence technique in
the area of eHealth.

PAPER
SUBMISSION:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Authors
are invited to submit their papers written in English in IEEE
double-column format (IEEE standard conference templates).
Papers can be either full, with a maximum length of six (6)
printed pages, or short, with a maximum length of four (4)
printed pages. In both cases, the number of pages includes
figures, tables & references. Submissions should contain
original material and not be previously published, or
currently submitted for consideration elsewhere. All papers
will be reviewed for scientific quality by the Technical
Program Committee.
All
papers should be submitted via EDAS. The link for the
submission is:
https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=24652
Paper
submission implies the willingness of at least one author to
register, at the regular rate (non-student), and present the
paper. The Workshop Proceedings will be part of the ISCC 2018
Proceedings and will be submitted for inclusion in IEEE Xplore
Digital Library. The IEEE ICTS4eHealth 2018 Workshop is using
the EDAS Conference Management System to manage the paper
submission process.
BEST
PAPER AWARD:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A
"Best Paper Award" Certificate will be conferred on the
author(s) of a paper presented at the workshop, selected by
the Chairs based on scientific significance, originality and
outstanding technical quality of the paper, as assessed also
by the evaluations of the members of the Program Committee.
IMPORTANT
DATES:
