EAI PFSM 2021 will be held as a fully-fledged online conference
In 2020, EAI successfully launched an online conference format to ensure the safety, comfort and quality of experience for attendees and a successful course of the events, all while retaining fully live interaction, publication and indexing. Due to the unrelenting global pandemic, this will also be the case in 2021.
All matters related to publication and indexing will remain unchanged. Participants will still be able to enjoy unique interactive benefits – learn more.
Scope
PFSM – This international conference on Privacy and Forensics in Smart Mobility (PFSM) provides an excellent discussion platform for the state-of-the-art work in the areas of privacy-preserving and digital forensics for the emerging smart mobility systems and the wider Smart Cities. The purpose of this special conference programme is to highlight the cutting-edge technologies to help build privacy-aware, secure, safe and resilient smart mobility systems for smart cities. It aims to promote scientific work on the topics suggested by the conference and encourage collaboration amongst researchers and practitioners from industry and academia. It also encourages participation from members of existing associations, professionals in general, including government departments and agencies.
