By 2050, urban population internationally will have increased by 2.8 billion
people. Moreover, at the current rate of carbon emissions, global temperatures
will have risen by 2℃ from pre-industrial levels. Therefore, there is an
urgent need to plan the cities of the future for sustainability. As a major
agent for promoting a quality of life compatible with a resource efficient
economy, the smart city phenomenon has recently captured the imagination of the
academia and the industry alike. Since the Internet of things (IoT) is expected
to be a primary driving force for future cities, advanced communication
techniques will play a pivotal role in facilitating real-time data acquisition
and utilization from distributed sensors. However, future cities will also have
to operate within the constraints of the national economy and available power
resources. Consequently, the challenges in the realization of smart cities are
many and varied, such as low energy consumption requirement, constrained
bandwidth and budgetary limitations. In order to overcome these hurdles, it is
essential that new concepts and theories for optimizing the network in energy,
spectral and monetary terms are presented to achieve a robust environment
monitoring and sustainable transportation network, among other provisions. This
workshop is aimed at furthering this effort by forging collaborations through
the presentation of state-of-the-art research endeavors by scholars from across
the globe. The participants will have the opportunity to share their findings
with the academic community at large as well as to form collaborations to
jointly investigate new aspects of smart cities. The topics for the workshop
include, but are not limited to,
