Just as a note. The deadline is noon EDT on Monday. Which means 9am in
Vancouver! I reached out and suggested they extend it until the end of the
day, but they said they have received too much criticism for changing
deadlines.

# CALL FOR PAPERS
Submission Deadline: November 15th, 2014
Link: http://goo.gl/vUejYf

# Scope
The establishment of innovative technologies related to mobile wearable
computing and smart city infrastructures led to the generation of massive
heterogeneous data streams. For example, sensors established in junctions
can estimate the volume of traffic at a specific area. These sensors form
networks that are able to track the vehicle flow of an entire city.
Moreover, GPS sensors installed on public transport (e.g. buses) can create
similar city pictures since delays can be tracked and utilized to monitor
problems around the city. In addition, citizens constantly interact with
mobile sensors in their smart-phones or use wearable technologies (e.g. in
shoes) that track their activity. At the same time micro-blogging
applications like Twitter provide a new stream of information that can be
utilized to capture events, trends or sentiment. The purpose of this special
issue to discuss the research challenges that arise due to the introduction
of such data.

# Topics of Interest
Researchers are encouraged to submit papers focusing on the context of
"smart cities". Indicatively topics of interest are the following:
- Mining Streaming and Heterogeneous Data
- Big Data Management
- Mobile Data Management
- Sensor and Vehicular Networks
- Information Fusion
- Mining Mirco-blogs
- Noise, Uncertainty and Crowdsourcing
- Social Network Analysis
- Spatial Analysis and Visual Analytics

# Applications
- Disaster Management and Emergency Response
- Public Transport
- Energy Efficiency
- Event Detection
- Enabling and Improving Smart Cities
- Health
- Security

# Submission Guidelines
Authors should prepare their manuscript according to the Guide for Authors
available from the online submission page of the Information Systems at
http://ees.elsevier.com/is/. Authors must select "Mining Urban Data" when
they reach the "Article Type" step in the submission process. All papers
will be peer-reviewed following the Information Systems reviewing
procedures.

Open North submitted its comment this morning, which I expect will show up
on their page shortly. You can read it over on the OpenDataBC list for now:
