Deadlines Extended
Society 5.0 2023
Human centeredness in a cyber-physical society
3rd Conference - 5th to 7th  June 2023
Venue: Conference Centre Future Africa, University of Pretoria, South Africa

Following an era of fast-paced evolution of digital technologies, digital disruption and digital transformation, Society 5.0 refers to "A human-centered society that balances economic advancement with the resolution of social problems by a system that highly integrates cyberspace and physical space". As Society 5.0 aims to tackle social challenges and achieve a sustainable, inclusive, people-oriented society, it also contributes to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. Society 5.0 advocates the adoption of digital technologies to increase global prosperity. The cyber-physical space consists of interconnected systems and devices, collecting and sending data. A human-centred society demands the inclusion of the human when considering applications and interactions in the cyber-physical space. This special issue focuses on aspects of interconnectedness and interaction - where the human in this potentially complex interaction is investigated and considered through the application of different lenses and interdisciplinary fields. The aim of this enquiry is to design and develop technological products and services that not only meet human needs, but that also consider the human experience when engaging in the cyber-physical space and that contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals.

All research submissions will go through a double-blind review process conducted by an international review panel. Your submission will be assessed anonymously by at least two reviewers and managed by the track chairs and program committee. Practice track submissions will be handled by the conference chairs.

The accepted full research papers will be included in a volume of EPiC Computing as the Society 5.0 proceedings - see https://easychair.org/publications/EPiC/Computing. The Society 5.0 2022 proceedings are available at https://easychair.org/publications/volume/Society_5.0-2022.

We look forward to receiving your full papers documenting original research aligned with the Society 5.0 themes in the research track, or practice submissions for the practice track. Submissions should not be submitted or published elsewhere, should adhere to the EPiC format and not exceed 12 pages. Instructions for EPiC authors are available at https://easychair.org/publications/for_authors.

Cases describe problems or challenges of organizations (private or public), relate them to the wider domain of Society 5.0, and provide useful insights to practitioners and scholars. Submissions to the Practice Track will be peer-reviewed.
