AIMS 2018 Call for Papers
The 7th International Conference on AI & Mobile Services (AIMS 2018)
AIMS 2018 organizing committee invites you to participate in the 7th edition of
AIMS, to be held on June 25-June 30 2018, Seattle, USA.
Regular Theme of AIMS 2018: Mobile and AI applications
AI has revolutionized the computing paradigm in multiple domains, such as
economics, finance, e-commence,etc. AI provide the abilities to link cyberspace
and physcial space, and social space. AI as a service will greatly reshape
current techonglogies. Also wireless and ubiquitous connectivity have enabled
mobile computing and Internet access on the go as a life-enhancing and
indispensable experience of modern life. More than 50 billion devices, in more
than 200 device types, will likely be connected to the Internet by 2020 as integral
components of a new generation of high-value application services for consumers
and enterprises. API-defined mobile services have become essential ubiquitous
services consumption and delivery enablers for many industries and government
organizations worldwide.
The 2018 International Conference on AI & Mobile Services (AIMS) aims at
providing an international forum that is dedicated to exploring different
aspects of AI( from technologies to approaches and algorithms) and mobile
services (from business management to computing systems, algorithms, and
applications) and to promoting technological innovations in research and
development of AI and mobile services, including, but not limited to, wireless
& sensor networks, mobile & wearable computing, mobile enterprise &
eCommerce, ubiquitous collaborative & social services, machine-to-machine
& Internet-of-things clouds, cyber-physical integration, big data analytics
for mobility-enabled services, and AI & machine learning theory, algorithms
& applications.
AI and Mobile Services have been driving Internet innovations and transforming
traditional businesses since iOS, Andriod, Windows Phone, and other mobile
operating systems were introduced. We are leveraging AI and mobile platforms
such as WeChat, QQ, Facebook, Twitter, and others to analyze business
opportunities, play games, conduct transactions, collaborate with team members,
sell products, build relationships with e-commerce partners, create
friend-circles, and manage projects as well as tasks. As an open platform, The
HotTopics of the 2018 International Conference on AI & Mobile Services
(AIMS 2018) is created to promote real-world solutions and growing
ecosystems.
The Hot Topics of AIMS 2018 invites you to submit practical innovations,
solutions, and case studies which include but not limited to the following

services. Track papers MUST clearly indicate their contributions to the field
and properly cite related work in the field, such as those published in the
proceedings of ICWS, SCC, CLOUD, SE, SERVICES, APSCC, ECOWS, and related
journals including TSC, JWSR, and IJBPIM.
All submitted manuscripts will be peer-reviewed by at least 3 program committee
members. Accepted and presented papers from all AIMS tracks will appear in the
conference proceedings published by SCF. Extended versions of selected research
track papers will be invited for potential publication in the IEEE Transactions
on Services Computing (TSC), International Journal of Web Services Research
(JWSR), and International Journal of Business Process Integration and
Management (IJBPIM). Both TSC and JWSR are indexed by SCI and EI [Link].

limited to 8 (SCF Proceedings style) pages and REQUIRED to be formatted using
the SCF Proceedings template (WORD, Latex). Submitted Short Paper track
manuscripts will be limited to 4 (SCF Proceedings style) pages. Unformatted papers
and papers beyond the page limit will not be reviewed. Electronic submission of
manuscripts (in PDF or Word format) is required. Detailed instructions for
electronic paper preparation and submission, panel proposals, tutorial

SCF Policy and professional ethics require that referees treat the contents of
papers under review as privileged information not to be disclosed to others
before publication. It is expected that no one with access to a paper under
review will make any inappropriate use of the special knowledge, which that
access provides. Contents of abstracts submitted to conference program
committees should be regarded as privileged as well, and handled in the same
manner. The Conference Publications Chair shall ensure that referees adhere to
this practice.
Organizers of SCF conferences are expected to provide an appropriate forum for
the oral presentation and discussion of all accepted papers. An author, in
offering a paper for presentation at a SCF conference, or accepting an
invitation to present a paper, is expected to be present at the meeting to
deliver the paper. In the event that circumstances unknown at the time of
submission of a paper preclude its presentation by an author, the program chair
should be informed on time, and appropriate substitute arrangements should be
made. In some cases it may help reduce no-shows for the Conference to require
advance registration together with the submission of the final
manuscript.
