The 2012 IEEE International Conference on Internet of Things (iThings)
The 2012 IEEE International Conference on Cyber, Physical, and Social 
Computing (CPSCom)
The 2012 IEEE International Conference on Green Computing and 
Communications (GreenCom)

These conferences will provide a high-profile, leading-edge forum for 
researchers, engineers and practitioners to present state-of-art 
advances and innovations in theoretical foundations, systems, 
infrastructure, tools, testbeds, and applications for the internet of 
things, cyber, physical and social computing, and green communications, 
as well as to identify emerging research topics and define the future.

iThings: The Internet of Things (iThings) is a network of 
Internet-enabled objects, which aims at increasing the ubiquity of the 
Internet by integrating every object for interaction via embedded 
systems and leads to the highly distributed network of devices 
communicating with human beings as well as other devices.  Combining 
with the infrastructures of the every heterogeneous networks including 
Internet and mobile networks, these objects can communicate with humans, 
and enable peoples to monitor and control them and enjoy their 
intelligent services in anytime and anywhere.

CPSCom: topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
- Cyber-physical systems and society
- Social computing
- Pervasive/ubiquitous computing
- Sensor/actuator networks
- Security, privacy, and trust
- Applications and services

GreenCom: Computers, communication systems and other IT infrastructure 
have been posing severe environmental problems by consuming significant 
amounts of electricity, increasing greenhouse gas emissions, and causing 
pollution during their production and disposal.  To reduce these 
environmental problems and create a sustainable environment, new models, 
algorithms, methodologies, tools and systems are needed so we can 
generate green IT systems with high energy efficiency, low greenhouse 
gas emissions, less harmful materials and easily being reused and recycled.

Authors are invited to submit original papers that MUST NOT have been 
submitted to or published in any other workshop, conference, or journal. 
   All papers must be written in English and submitted electronically 
through the Web site.  For more information please see the Web page.

Each submission should be regarded as an undertaking that, if the paper 
is accepted, at least one of the authors must attend the conference to 
present the work in order for the paper to be included in the IEEE 
Digital Library. Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of 
iThings 2011 by IEEE Computer Society (EI indexed).  Extended versions 
of selected papers will be considered for publication in several 
SCI-index international journals (check the Web site for details).
