The mobile sensing and networking capabilities of smartphones create a unique platform for building cyber-physical and other applications that sense and respond to the environment. Moreover, social networking capabilities of these platforms offer new paradigms for dissemination of knowledge, harvesting of user relationship information, and following current events. For example, recent research has yielded cyber-physical applications and cloud services to track patients lifestyle choices for health purposes, monitor CO2 emissions around smartphone users, predict and respond to traffic accidents, measure traffic and derive road quality, and monitor cardiac patients. This workshop aims to investigate the key research challenges in this domain, such as software design impact on power consumption, synchronization of data with the cloud, and challenges of utilizing these services for mission-critical applications. The workshop will also investigate novel new methodologies for applying these computing paradigms to problems of societal importance.
