Today With the development of smart sensors, things, cloud computing, and the next-generation wireless networking technologies, “Smart Connected Living” is getting noteworthy consideration from the academia, the industry, and from the smart world community. Recently, the Internet of Things (IoT) has brought the vision of the connected world into reality with a massive amount of data and numerous services. Cloud computing fits well as an enabling technology in this scenario as it presents a flexible stack of computing, storage and software services at low cost. The cloud-based services can provide a high quality of experience to a range of connected applications anytime and from anywhere seamlessly. However, the combination of IoT and cloud can unleash new opportunities for both technologies.

This workshop aims to report high quality research on recent advances in various aspects of smart connected living, more specifically to the state-of-the-art approaches, methodologies and systems in the design, development, deployment and innovative use of networked services, tools and technologies for smart connected living. Authors are solicited to submit complete unpublished papers in the following, but not limited to the following topics of interest.:

Mobile Edge Computing for smart connected living
Converged big data communication, cloud and IoT technologies for smart connected living
IoT-Cloud convergence for connected or smart transportation
