The 1st International Workshop
on Integrated Sensing, Communication, and Computing
in IoT Systems
(ISCC-IoT 2024)
Workshop Scope:
As communication and networking technologies evolve, a myriad of smart-world systems driven by Internet of Things (IoT) technology are being developed and deployed across diverse sectors, such as energy, transportation, manufacturing, urban infrastructure, and healthcare, among others. In such smart-world IoT systems, sensing, communication, and computing are essential components, which allow devices to collect data that can reflect the status of physical things, provide effective means to deliver sensing data and actuation commands across devices, and offer data processing and analysis capability to facilitate the operations and decision making. Many new emerging IoT applications, such as autonomous vehicles, industrial IoT (IIoT), health monitoring, augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR), require real-time processing, large throughput data transmission, low latency, reliability, and security and privacy. To meet the demanding performance requirements of these emerging IoT applications, a joint design of sensing, communication, and computing is pivotal, which enables the components to better share resources, enhance communication efficiency through sensing-assisted communication and edge computing, improve situational awareness by leveraging pervasive wireless devices, and more.
This workshop aims to bring academia, industry, and government together to develop viable solutions to address challenging issues on sensing, communication, and computing design in IoT Systems. The papers in this proposed workshop address the aforementioned challenges and propose solutions spanning different components and layers and the interworking between them.
We invite original research papers that focus on, but are not limited to, the following topics related to smart systems:
● Design architecture and frameworks of sensing, communication, and/or computing
● Algorithm of sensing, communication, or computing
● Design of sensing, communication, and computing components
● Cross-component and cross-layer design and optimization
● AI-assisted design of sensing, communication, and computing components
● Modeling and simulation environments for evaluating design methodologies
● Security and privacy in the design and integration of IoT systems
● Data science, engineering, and practice in the design and integration of IoT systems
● Machine learning models and architectures in the design and integration of IoT systems
● Resource management in IoT systems
● Collaborative sensing and multi-sensor data fusion in IoT systems
● Sensing-assisted communication and wireless/RF sensing
● Software Defined Network (SDN) and Edge computing enabled wireless sensing
● Machine learning and data analytics for RF sensing
● Standardization on integrated sensing and communication (ISAC)
Submission Guidelines:
Authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting original unpublished research and recent developments in the topics related to the workshop. Submissions should include an abstract, keywords, and the e-mail address of the corresponding author. The length of the papers should be limited to 6 pages in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font). Detailed submission instructions will be posted on the workshop webpage. Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register and attend the workshop to present the work.
Instructions for Authors:
Submitted manuscripts must be formatted in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font) and must be submitted via EDAS (http://edas.info/) as PDF files (formatted for 8.5x11-inch paper). The manuscripts should be no longer than 6 pages. No extra pages will be allowed. Submitted papers cannot have been previously published in or be under consideration for publication in another journal or conference. The workshop program committee reserves the right to not review papers that either exceed the length specification or have been submitted or published elsewhere. Submissions must include a title, abstract, keywords, author(s), and affiliation(s) with postal and e-mail address(es).
Review and Publication of Manuscripts:
Submitted papers will be reviewed by the workshop program committee and judged on originality, technical correctness, relevance, and quality of presentation. An accepted paper must be presented at the ICCCN 2024 venue by one of the authors registered at the full registration rate. Each workshop registration covers up to two workshop papers by an author.
ICCCN 2024 Paper Submission Terms and Conditions:
1. Authors declare that the submission is original and has not been submitted to other venue or under consideration by other venues.
2. Paper titles and/or author names cannot be changed and/or added to the papers once papers are submitted to ICCCN 2024 for review and in the final camera-ready manuscript.
3. If the paper is accepted, at least one of the authors must register at full rate and present it in person at the conference. Accepted and paid paper(s) but not presented onsite by the registered author(s) (for any reason, including visa issues, travel problems, etc.) will be published in the conference proceedings only. We strongly encourage that all authors of accepted papers apply for entry visa to USA in case one author cannot get the entry visa.
