Second International Conference on ICT for Health, Accessibility and Wellbeing (IHAW 2022)

December 5-7, 2022, Golden Bay Beach Hotel 5*, Larnaca, Cyprus

https://cyprusconferences.org/ihaw2022

ICT for Health, Accessibility and Wellbeing (IHAW 2022) is the second of the series of International Conferences on "ICT for Societal Challenges". It is a showcase for high quality oral and poster presentations and demonstrations sessions. This conference aims to be a platform for multi and interdisciplinary research at the interplay between Information and Communication Technologies, Biomedical, Neuro-cognitive, and Experimental research.

This research includes the design, experimental evaluation and standardization of new ICT scalable systems and in-silico systems for new and future inclusive and sustainable technologies that benefit all: healthy people, people with disabilities or other impairments, people having chronic diseases, etc. User-centered design and innovation, new intuitive ways of human -computer interaction, and user acceptance are the topics of particular interest.

Conference Topics

Relevant topics include (but are not limited to) the following:

Artificial Intelligence, Computation and Data Analytics

* Artificial Intelligence methods for medical device testing.
* Algorithms, methods and services for condition-specific intervention (e.g.,
diabetes, obesity, dementia, post cancer treatment, allergies, mental health).
* Algorithms, methods and services for predicting and monitoring infectious
disease.
* Crowd-sourcing and social media analysis for predicting and monitoring
infectious
disease.
* Medical Data and/or Medical Image Analysis.
* Electronic Medical Records Analysis.
* Computational methods for medical devices.

Human Computer Interaction and Cognition

* Human-Machine Interaction for healthcare and well-being.
* Cognitive Mechatronics for healthcare and well-being.
* Models for human-device interaction for medicine.
* Cobotics for healthcare and well-being.
* Model-based design and configuration tools for healthcare and well-being.

Assistive Devices

* Precision medicine.
* ICT for in-silicon trials.
* Implantable medical devices.
* Multimodal assistive ICT devices to empower people with sensory, cognitive,
motor, balance and spatial impairments.
ICT & Wellbeing

Health Infrastructure and Healthcare Operation Services

Quality in Healthcare Systems

Privacy, Security & Standardization

High-quality original submissions that address such future issues, show the
design and evaluation in (near-) real scenarios, explain how to benchmark
systems, and outline the education and training procedures for acquiring new
perceptual skills while using such systems are welcome. Research and technical
papers are expected to present significant and original contributions
validated with the targeted end-users.
Submissions should clearly state the progress beyond the existing state-of-
the-art and the expected societal benefits of the developed technology. When
possible, validate scenarios with the target user groups and well-identified
technology readiness levels
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology
readiness
level)
should be at least outlined.
Submissions
We invite Research and Technical papers, up to 15 pages, describing original
unpublished research, making a substantial contribution to the research field.
All submissions will be reviewed by the Program Committee. As was the case for
IHAW 2021, the proceedings of IHAW 2022 will be published by Springer in the
Communications in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) series
(https://www.springer.com/series/7899) and will be presented in the technical
sessions of the conference.
As was also the case for IHAW 2021, the authors of the best papers accepted for
IHAW2022 will be invited to submit extended versions for a special issue in a
high quality journal (currently under negotiation).
Submissions of all types should be carefully formatted according to the
Springer format for conference proceedings:
https://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines .
The submission process will be handled through Easy Chair and the
submission link is: https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=icihaw2022 .
