*HotPlanet 2016 - 7th International Workshop on Hot Topics in Planet-Scale
Measurement*


*Workshop @ Ubicomp <http://ubicomp.org/ubicomp2016/> / ISWC 2016*
*September 12-16, Heidelberg, Germany*


The last decade has seen a rapid, planet-scale growth in deployment and
usage of smart mobile devices, ambient sensors, smartphone applications and
advanced communication technologies. This era has prompted for large-scale,
planet-wide data collection, storage, processing and dissemination
technologies, advancing our knowledge about human behaviour and
interactions at a planetary scale. Evolution of such technologies and
methodologies, in addition to the high investments in Internet of things
(IoT) deployments, has inherently led to a number of security, privacy and
ethical issues as well as new systems, networking, and application
challenges.

This 7th HotPlanet workshop will bring together networking, wireless,
mobile computing and systems research to understand the challenges ahead
and advance the dialogue on topics related to large-scale measurements and
big data analytics centred on individuals. It aims to attract publications
on data collection and analysis, such as knowledge-discovery methodologies,
large-scale data mining, and big social media data and location traces
analytics, but also on deployment challenges, such as innovative real-world
measurement technologies, end-user applications, large-scale deployment
experiences, and innovative large-scale mobile sensing systems. Topics of
interest include:

·         Big data analytics (social media, mobility traces, prediction
techniques, etc.)

·         Mobile sensing systems

·         Big data privacy & security

·         Large scale measurement methodologies

·         Novel social & sensing application

·         Open source and virtualized sensing infrastructure

·         Cloud computing paradigms for decentralized analysis

·         Incentive models for encouraging users and businesses to collect
and contribute data

·         Profiling, personalisation, geo-targeting

·         Programming paradigms for large scale data collection

·         Data quality issues

·         Internet of Things

·         Smart energy-aware systems

·         Large scale mobile application and market experience

·         Regulatory, legal and ethical issues in planet-wide data
collection
