Journal Guide

The purpose of JAIHC is to provide a high profile, leading edge forum for academics, industrial professionals, educators and policy makers involved in the field to contribute, to disseminate the most innovative researches and developments of all aspects of ambient intelligence and humanized computing, such as intelligent/smart objects, environments/spaces, and systems. The journal discusses various technical, safety, personal, social, physical, political, artistic and economic issues. The research topics covered by the journal are (but not limited to): Pervasive/Ubiquitous Computing and Applications Cognitive wireless sensor network Embedded Systems and Software Mobile Computing and Wireless Communications Next Generation Multimedia Systems Security, Privacy and Trust Service and Semantic Computing Advanced Networking Architectures Dependable, Reliable and Autonomic Computing Embedded Smart Agents Context awareness, social sensing and inference Multi modal interaction design Ergonomics and product prototyping Intelligent and self-organizing transportation networks & services Healthcare Systems Virtual Humans & Virtual Worlds Wearables sensors and actuators

The Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Smart Environments (JAISE) serves as a forum to discuss the latest developments on Ambient Intelligence (AmI) and Smart Environments (SmE). Given the multi-disciplinary nature of the areas involved, the journal aims to promote participation from several different communities covering topics ranging from enabling technologies such as multi-modal sensing and vision processing, to algorithmic aspects in interpretive and reasoning domains, to application-oriented efforts in human-centered services, as well as contributions from the fields of robotics, networking, HCI, mobile, collaborative and pervasive computing. This diversity stems from the fact that smart environments can be defined with a variety of different characteristics based on the applications they serve, their interaction models with humans, the practical system design aspects, as well as the multi-faceted conceptual and algorithmic considerations that would enable them to operate seamlessly and unobtrusively. The Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Smart Environments will focus on both the technical and application aspects of these.
