CDS 2023

Goal of the Workshop:

The aim of this workshop is to discuss and advance the state-of-the-art, research and development in the area of consumer devices, systems and services, and to promote the study of both fundamental and practical aspects of such devices, systems and services. The workshop addresses researchers from different disciplines in academia and industry, as well as practitioners, who share interests in consumer devices, systems and services. The focus will be on novel consumer devices, systems and services, experiences drawn from development of such devices, systems and services, and emerging technologies for such devices, systems and services.

Workshop Theme:

Consumer devices, systems and services have been smarter than before rapidly. Such devices include AV devices, home appliances, home gateways, smart phones, healthcare devices, wearable devices, robots, drones, and other devices so called IoT (Internet of Things) or IoE (Internet of Everything). Such devices have computing and communication functions, and communicate with each other. Networks for consumer devices are also emerging rapidly. However, such networks suffer from incompatibility in many cases. Integrated architecture, protocols and middleware for consumer networks are required for advanced consumer systems, which include lifestyle computing, wellness, sport/fitness, entertainment, communication, medical, security/safety for social network services, and so on. Recently, much attention has been paid to smart home and smart city, and cloud/edge computing supports such applications. The purpose of this workshop is to provide a forum for researchers and engineers to present research results in this area.

Scope of the Workshop:

Any submission whose content is relevant to the area of consumer devices, systems and services will be considered, but any submission whose subject matter is related to one of the following topics will be particularly welcome:

• Smart Consumer Devices, Systems and Services
• Novel Architecture, Protocols and Middleware for Consumer Networks
• Novel Systems and Applications for Consumer Devices
• IoT and IoE for Smart Home and Smart City
• Security, Safety and Management Issues for Consumer Devices, Systems and Services
• IoT Communications for Consumer Devices and Networks
• Social Network Services for Consumer Devices
• Emerging Technologies for Consumer Devices, Systems and Services (e.g. Cloud/Edge Computing)

Recommendation to IPSJ CDS Transaction:

A few excellent papers will be selected for recommendation as a “Recommendation Paper” to the IPSJ CDS Transactions by the workshop organizers.
