After the successful of the previous 1stedition (1stInternational Workshop on Human-Centric Smart Environments for Health and Well-being IHSH’2018) held at Medea, Algeria on 24th-25th November 2018 in marge of the International Conference on Applied Smart Systems (ICASS2018), and the 2nd edition held at Boumerdes, Algeria on 9th-10th February 2021, The new 2022 edition is promoted to the rank of conference titled “The 2022 International Conference on Human-centric Smart environments for Health and well-being (IHSH’2022)” will be organized by the University of Quebec at Rimouski (UQAR, Qc, Canada) in collaboration wtith the University of Sciences and Technology Houari Boumediene (Algeria). It will be held at UQAR on October 26th, 27th, and 28th 2022.

Smart environment for health and well-being may be defined as “a world that is richly and invisibly interwoven with smart devices (sensors, actuators, displays, etc.) that are continuously working to make humans’ lives more comfortable and to improve their health and well-being”.

The aim of the IEEE Sponsored Conference IHSH’2022 is to contribute to the scientific knowledge of building smart environments for health and well-being. This Conference will provide an interesting multi-disciplinary collaborative forum for the active community of academics, researchers, and industrials from computer science, information technology, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, and telecommunication.

The conference invites authors for presenting original works describing research results, theoretical, practical, or industrial solutions (prototype, formal modeling, augmented reality, machine learning, big data, web & internet of things, system theory, optimization, robotics, etc.) and discussing innovative ideas that have potentials to build human-centric smart environments for health and the well-being. The conference will include a plenary talk and oral/poster sessions.

Because of uncertainties related to Covid 19, IHSH'2022 is planned as a hybrid event: some sessions in-person and some over the Internet. If the pandemic worsens, the conference will be completely virtual.
