[NZIRF] Deadline 28 Sep. - CFP: ITNAC 2017 Workshop on Data Intensive Computing and Communications for Sustainable Development (DICC4SD), Melbourne Australia

[William Liu]

*Workshop Objectives and Scope*
The recent advancements in Information and Communications Technology (ICT)
such as 5G, Internet of Things, Cloud and Crowd Computing as well as the
rapid growth of the Internet and World Wide Web led to vast amounts of
information available anywhere. In addition, business and government
organizations create large amounts of both structured and unstructured
information which needs to be collected, transmitted, processed, analyzed,
and networked. The storing, managing, transmitting, accessing, processing
and networking of these vast amount of data represent fundamental research
challenge in order to satisfy needs to search, acquire, transmit, analyze,
mine, and visualize this data as information. The new research disciplines
of data-intensive computing and communications (DICC) are intended to
address these challenges. This workshop dedicates itself to explore the
role and impact of the DICC for making our world more sustainability
developing: creating research and development, and also innovation for
economic growth, reducing energy and material resources consumption,
increasing quality of life for ever more people without compromising future
generations' ability to meet their needs.

*Related Topics*

Papers related to DICC for sustainable development in a broad sense such as
sustainable development by DICC, sustainable development in DICC and their
overarching aspects are all welcome.

Topics include (but are not limited to) the following examples that all
ought to discuss DICC research and their implications in sustainable
development:

   - DICC for energy efficiency of smart homes, buildings and cities
   - DICC for energy efficient industrial environments and processes
   - DICC for sustainable mobility, transport, and logistics
   - DICC for smart power grids and energy systems
   - DICC for water, agriculture, food distribution and logistics, waste
   reduction, tracking and provenance
   - DICC for healthcare include health monitoring and healthy lifestyle
   support systems, disease detection and monitoring, assistive technologies,
   health care information systems
   - DICC for underwater monitoring and communications
   - DICC in disaster monitoring, rescue and recovery
   - DICC for monitoring and conservation of biodiversity
   - DICC for geo-hazard monitoring e.g., landslides, earthquakes and
   tsunami
   - DICC of crowdsourcing solutions for sustainable development
   - DICC for urban, rural or low-income zones’ sustainable development
   - DICC for e-Education applications in rural or low-income zones’
   challenged networks
