COINS: International Conference on Omni-layer Intelligent systems

IoT | Artificial Intelligence | Machine Learning | Big Data | Cloud | Sensor | Embedded Systems | Computer Architecture | EDA

Vertical Topics (Health | Smart City | Automotive | Industry 4.0 | Agriculture)

The Intelligent Internet of Things (IoT) tsunami is affecting every aspect of our daily lives, ranging from smart cars, smart homes, smart cities, smart factories to smart health, and smart environments. Although IoT vastly expanded the possibilities to fulfill many of our needs, numerous challenges still should to be addressed in order to develop smart, consistent, suitable, safe, flexible and power-efficient systems. To enable this transformation and to better understand the untapped opportunities, the interdisciplinary landscape of IoT demands a large number of significant technological advancements in the hardware and software communities to come together and to synergize their efforts. COINS focuses on novel omni-layer techniques for smart IoT systems, by identifying new perspectives and highlighting impending research issues and challenges. In particular, this conference addresses all-important aspects of novel IoT technologies from Connected Devices, to Edge/Fog, Cloud, and application, covering manufacturing, materials, CMOS and beyond-CMOS devices, architecture, embedded systems, reconfigurable hardware, network, cloud, Omni-layer artificial intelligence and machine learning, big data, emerging applications, as well as human-machine interaction. COINS also discusses the associated challenges that need to be overcome for achieving the goal of accuracy, privacy, reliability and security. The three-day COINS event consists of a conference with plenary keynote speakers, invited papers, regular papers, panels, special hot-topic sessions, and workshops.

Within the scope of the conference, the main areas of interest are organised in the following tracks. Submissions can be made to any of the track topics. In addition, several Special Sessions (with their own coordinators and subprogram committees) do also welcome contributions in specific themes of particular interest (see CfPs). All papers are reviewed following guidelines, quality requirements and thresholds that are common to all committees.

COINS Executive Committee is pleased to announce registration grants for highly skilled students who have an accepted paper. The number of grants is limited, therefore the funding is awarded on a competition basis. We are especially looking forward to applications from Middle East, and ASIA. Please do not hesitate to contact and apply to the COINS Organization (Dr.-Ing. Farshad Firouzi) via email: [email protected].

Doctoral Symposium

Doctoral Symposium provides doctoral students at different stages in their research an opportunity to present their problem statement, goals, methods, and results to receive constructive feedback on their current research and future research directions. Paper on PhD research project (max. 2-4 pages) should conform to the ACM or IEEE format.

Deadline for Doctoral Symposium: January 15, 2019

Proceeding

COINS is sponsored by IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA). Moreover, the proceeding will be published in ACM. Accepted papers are allowed six pages in the conference proceedings free of charge. Each additional page beyond six pages is subject to the page charge at 150 Euro per page up to the eight-page limit. ACM will hold the copyright for COINS proceedings. Authors of accepted papers must sign an ACM copyright release form for their paper.

Extended versions of selected best papers will be published in a special issue of the ISI indexed Elsevier journal “Microprocessors and Microsystems: Embedded Hardware Design” (MICPRO) having the 2016 Impact Factor as high as 1.025

Crete is the largest and most populous of the Greek islands, the 88th largest island in the world and the fifth largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, after Sicily, Sardinia, Cyprus, and Corsica. The mystery of Crete runs deep. Whoever sets foot on this island senses a mysterious force coursing warmly and beneficently through their veins, sensing their soul beginning to grow” wrote Nikos Kazantzakis, Crete’s most celebrated author, in Report to Greco. On the south side of the Aegean is an island that is mystical, warm and welcoming, pure and generous. Crete captures the spirit of Greece, and enchants everyone who visits it. Heraklion, Rethymno, Chania, Agios Nikolaos, Elounda, Ierapetra, Malia, Hersonissos, Sitia, Sfakia: an island with numerous destinations and thousands of vibrant images. Crete captivates and seduces the senses with its impressive and majestic landscape, with its open-hearted and vivacious spirit, its rich history, its world-famous cuisine and its hospitable people.
