Introduction
The technologies of computing and
communications have undergone a
series of evolutionary innovation
over the past decades and improved
the quality of human life
significantly. Computing and
communications in the 21st century
faces an ever-increasing number of
great challenges and revolutionary
developments. Ubiquitous Computing
and Communications is a
revolutionary paradigm that aims to
provide pervasive and reliable
computing solutions and
communication services anytime and
anywhere. This emerging technology
is built upon the rapid research and
development advances in a wide range
of key areas including wireless and
sensor networks, mobile and
distributed computing, embedded
systems, agent technologies,
autonomic communication, and
information security. Ubiquitous
Computing and Communications has
drawn significant interests from
both academia and industry and
continues to attract tremendous
research efforts due to its
promising new business opportunity
in information technology and
engineering.
The conference offers an important
international platform and brings
together the scientists, engineers,
researchers, and students from
academy and industry all over the
world to share their latest work,
exchange experiences and discuss the
state-of-the-art challenges of
ubiquitous computing and
communications. IUCC 2018 is
soliciting original and previously
unpublished papers addressing
research challenges and advances
towards the design, implementation
and evaluation of ubiquitous
computing and communications
technologies, systems and
applications. IUCC 2018 follows the
tradition of a successful series of
conferences that have been held all
along the world, in places as
Guangzhou in 2017, Granada(Spain) in
2016, Liverpool (UK) in 2015,
Chengdu (China) in 2014, or
Melbourne (Australia) in 2013.

Submission Guidelines
Submissions must include an
abstract, keywords, the e-mail
address of the corresponding author
and should not exceed 8 pages for
main conference, including tables
and figures in IEEE CS format. The
template files for LATEX or WORD can
be downloaded
here. All paper submissions must
represent original and unpublished
work. Each submission will be peer
reviewed by at least three program
committee members. Submission of a
paper should be regarded as an
undertaking that, should the paper
be accepted, at least one of the
authors will register for the
conference and present the work.
Submit your paper(s) in PDF file at
the submission site: http://www.swinflow.org/confs/2018/iucc/submission.htm.
Publications
Accepted and presented papers will
be included into the
symposium
proceedings. Distinguished papers presented at
the conference, after further
revision, will be published in
special issues of
selected journals.
