SCOPE

Pervasive and parallel computing and communication aim at providing effective computing solutions and communication services. Sensors and intelligent data processing are the counterpart of current semi-autonomous systems. With the advent of Industry 4.0 and IoT this interdisciplinary field brings together R&D and real-world applications, using intelligent data analysis, signal processing and software technologies, over pervasive, wireless, wearable and/or mobile systems. Applications range from ambient intelligence, to industrial automation, from ubiquitous multimedia to multidimensional signal processing, from robotics to integrated systems and nanotechnologies.
