== Call for Papers for i-Cities 2025 ==
We are pleased to announce the first Call for Papers for i-Cities 2025: The 11th CINI Annual Conference on ICT for Smart Cities & Communities.
i-Cities 2025 will organized in Gaeta (Italy), from September 17 to September 19, 2025 (
https://icities25.unicas.it/) by the University of Cassino and Southern Lazio
The eleventh edition of the i-Cities conference continues its tradition of integrating key ICT technologies within a multidisciplinary approach to Smart Cities and Communities. The conference aims to bring together academia, industry, and public institutions to share and discuss research advances, innovative solutions, and real-world applications addressing urban challenges. It provides a platform to foster collaborations, exchange ideas, and explore opportunities for new projects at national and international levels.
Authors are invited to submit work demonstrating practical implementations, advancing theoretical foundations, or exploring new methodologies.
This year, the conference emphasizes academic research contributions that will be discussed in scientific workshops hosted by the conference.
Therefore, authors can submit extended abstracts related to either scientific contributions, which will be extended to become full papers, or preliminary works, which will only be presented through short pitches.
Full papers will be published in Scopus-indexed proceedings (such as CEUR-WS).
Contributions are encouraged across a wide range of topics related to ICT-based solutions for smart cities and communities, including but not limited to:
● Civic Engagement
● Climate & Environment Management
● Context & Situation Awareness
● Cultural Heritage & IoT
● Digital Humanities
● E-Culture
