Aims and Scope
The 2018 report from the World Economic Forum Global Risks highlights that the continued deterioration of the global environment is increasingly dominant to be one of the biggest threats to humanity. Environment monitoring is one of the key solutions to characterize and monitor the quality of the environment. Therefore, it is feasible to prepare environmental impact assessments and investigate the impact of human activities which may carry a risk of harmful effects on the natural environment. This workshop aims to publish new research and reviews in the use of IoT technology and LLM for environmental monitoring for smart cities. The scope of the workshop also includes emerging communication technologies such as 5G/6G data communication, fog/edge/cloud computing, data fusion, big data analytics, and data science methods such as data mining and machine learning for processing and analyzing environmental data. Any innovative and novel ideas related to environmental monitoring are also highly appreciated and to be considered in this workshop call. EnvSys 24 is co-located with ACM MobiSys 2024. The accepted papers will be included with the MobiSys proceedings and posted in the ACM Digital Library.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Distributed sensing, inference and wireless computation for environmental monitoring
- Edge/Fog/Cloud Intelligence and semantic communications for environmental systems
- Artificial intelligence for optimizing environment sensing systems
- Data sciences and data mining for environmental data analytics
- Large Language models (LLM) for environmental monitoring systems
- Air, water, and soil pollution sensing systems and their applications
