ICCSE’17 – Smart and Crowd: Building City of Wisdom
CALL FOR PAPERS
Crowd Science refers to the science that underlies online
crowd-powered ecosystems. It focuses on the design and analysis of
information processing systems in which humans participate to contribute
their intelligence, effort, time and/or resources.
In 2016, the first International Conference on Crowd Science and
Engineering (ICCSE) was held on the beautiful campus of The University
of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. This conference received 100
paper submissions from 12 countries. Among the 100 submissions, 27
papers have been selected as full papers to be presented at the
conference. ICCSE’16 offered great opportunities for delegates to
interact and connect at daily luncheons, morning and afternoon coffee
breaks, and a conference banquet on July 28, 2016.
In 2017, ICCSE will take place from 6 to 9 July 2017 at Tsinghua
University, Beijing, China. In this conference, academics, industry
practitioners and policy makers will gather to explore the
transformative potential of crowd science research and how to engineer
efficient systems that combine the respective strengths of humans and
machines to open up new possibilities.
ICCSE’17 now invites you to participate and contribute to this
international forum for the dissemination and exchange of up-to-date
scientific information on theoretical and applied areas of CSE, through
the following modes of communication: Plenary/Keynote Presentation,
Technical Sessions and Demo/Poster Sessions.

selected number of top quality papers will be invited to extend their
papers for further review and possible publication in special issues of
the International Journal of Crowd Science and IEEE journals (such as
IEEE Access, IEEE Internet of Things, IEEE Big Data etc.).
ICCSE’17 will be jointly organized with three other conferences: The
2017 International Conference on Agents (ICA’17), the 2017
International Conference on Ageless Aging (ICAA’17), and the 2017
International Conference on Wearable Healthy (ICWH’17).
We look forward to seeing you in beautiful Beijing!
