SCOPE
The 1st International Conference on “Future Internet – Infrastructures and Enablers” (FINE2016) will be held under the EAI International Conference on Future Internet and Internet of Things Applications. FINE 2016 aims at progressing and advancing on topics of high relevance with Future Internet’s impact on technology, governance, and innovation. It focuses on the contribution and role of Future Internet on the current and emerging infrastructures which largely impact shaping of cities, communities, and governance. FINE 2016 builds on the fact that Future Internet testbeds and their flourishing Future Internet enablers have radically changed the ways of interacting, living and socializing. FINE 2016 aims at offering the ground at which scientific and technical discussion will progress among technology stakeholders, academia, governance and the society on all open and emerging issues with respect to Future Internet infrastructures and enablers which radically empower to deliver services and applications able to disrupt, transform and innovate.

TOPICS
FINE 2016 invites research papers presenting new results and highlighting on Future Internet concepts which touch cross-disciplinary topics and focus on challenging and provoking ideas. Its main objective is to allow an open and productive dialogue among all disciplines relevant which the Future Internet as a technical and active system which evolves driven by its infrastructural capacity and its applications enabling potential. Based on these goals, FINE 2016 welcomes all submissions that fall in these Future Internet (FI) domains and topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:

FI based Smart Services and Applications
FI Infrastructures & Enabling Technologies
FI Context-Aware and dynamically personalized services and applications
FI Semantics and Social Concepts
FI and Social Networks Cross-Disciplines
FI enablers for Society and Innovation
FI enablers for Entrepreneurial Growth
FI for Identity, Trust and Privacy
FI Governance and Policies
FI Security and Resilience Aspects
FI Solutions for Sustainability
FI Societal Impacts
Linked Open Data in the FI: Architecture and Design Issues
(Auto-) Identification of Resources in the FI Architecture
Smart Cities and FI Testbeds
Agile and Smart Services in the FI Era
Design, Implementation, and Analysis of novel FI Platforms
Experimental Results and FI enablers capabilities
Securing the FI Infrastructure
Big Data and FI: Challenges, Limitations, and Implementations
Novel Network Analytics on the Future Internet
Collective Intelligence for FI Innovative Solutions

We invite both research papers presenting new results, and extended abstracts with provoking ideas and work-in-progress, shedding light on Future Internet from all involved disciplines and especially papers crossing rigid disciplines boundaries.

The conference will also host Workshops, industrial applications track, demos, and tutorials which will embrace and complete the main conference with blue-sky, disruptive and innovative ideas and practices.
