Human Computer Communications and Internet of Things

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite you to submit contributions to the Special Issue on “Human Computer Communications and the Internet of Things”.

With successful development of light-weight handheld devices and the deployment of wireless (cellular and Wi-Fi) networks in the past few decades, we have seen growing numbers of smart devices/things connected to the Internet, leading to the Internet of Things (IoT). However, human computer interaction in the Internet of Things era is in its early stages.

Our aim is to promote the development of human computer interaction in the Internet of Things era by creating intelligent frameworks, protocols and algorithms. The proposed Special Issue will serve as a forum for researchers from academia, government and industries to exchange ideas and present new results and provide future visions on human computer interaction in the Internet of Things. 

For this Special Issue, we will consider manuscripts across a broad area, concerning such topics, but not limited to:

  • Information Visualization
  • Big data analytics
  • Privacy and Security Challenges
  • Smart Interactions for Smart Things
  • HCI for IoT enabled systems
  • HCI for Cyber Physical Systems
  • Human in the loop
  • Internet of Battlefield Things.
  • Testbed, use cases and standardization

Prof. Danda B. Rawat
Guest Editor
