    *****Apologies for Cross Posting*****

     

    Dear Colleagues,

     

    We invite you to submit a paper to the 3rd ACM SIGSPATIAL International Workshop on Advances in Resilient and Intelligent Cities (ARIC 2020) by September 11th, 2020. The workshop will be held Virtually on November 3rd, 2020. 

     

    Workshop Website: https://urbands.github.io/aric2020/

     

    This workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners from  different disciplines to address the challenges of integrating computing, analytics, urban design, public health research/epidemiology, infrastructure resilience modeling, among others to build intelligent and resilient cities that can withstand the impacts of future pandemics and extreme events. This year's workshop invites papers in the following areas:

     

    • Analytics integrating heterogeneous spatio-temporal data for prediction, detection of anomalies and unusual patterns.
    • Real-time analytics of dynamic and distributed data
    • Edge and distributed computing and resilience assessment of cyber-physical systems
    • Human dynamics in the Age of Smart/Intelligent Systems
    • Spatial social network analytics in the built environment
    • Theoretical and practical applications of Internet of Things in urban settings 
    • Optimization of sensor locations for urban resilience in the context of design and planning
    • Urban mobility data management and visualization
    • Using augmented reality, simulations and 3D-Geovisualization for urban planning and decision making
    • Development of urban digital twins for smart and resilient cities
    • Deep learning technologies for urban systems planning and management 
    • Case studies of successful deployment of smart and resilient cities
    • Policies and theoretical framework for successful deployment of intelligent and resilient cities
    • Existing state-of-the-art and future directions in achieving both smart and resilient cities

     

    Specific attention will be given to papers that focus on resilience (community and infrastructure) in the context of COVID-19 and integrate heterogeneous data and real-time computing/analytics/visualization to aid with the pandemic and other co-occurring hazards. 

     

    Paper Format

    • Full research paper: 8-10 pages
