EAI ICCASA 2022 will be held as an on-site conference and if needed, Accepted Authors who are unable to attend the event in person will be given an option to present remotely.

Scope
ICCASA 2022 is a place for highly original ideas about how Context-Aware Systems (CAS) are going to shape networked computing systems of the future. Hence, it focuses on rigorous approaches and cutting-edge solutions which break new ground in dealing with the properties of context-awareness. Its purpose is to make a formal basis more accessible to researchers, scientists, professionals and students as well as developers and practitioners in ICT by providing them with state-of-the-art research results, applications, opportunities and future trends. We are happy to inform you about the collocated conference EAI ICTCC 2022!

CAS is primarily inspired by the human autonomic nervous system and it is characterized by itself – facets such as self-organization, self-configuration, self-healing, self-optimization, self-protection and so on whose context awareness is used to dynamically control computing and networking functions. The overall goal of CAS is to realize nature inspired autonomic systems that can manage themselves without direct human interventions. Meeting this grand challenge of CAS requires a rigorous interdisciplinary approach to context-aware systems.

Context awareness originated as a term from ubiquitous computing or as so-called pervasive computing which sought to deal with linking changes in the environment with computer systems, which are otherwise static. The term has also been applied to business theory in relation to contextual application design and business process management issues.
