The Urb-IoT conference aims to explore the dynamics within the scope of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the new science of cities. Urb-IoT 2018 is the 3rd edition of this conference, after two successful events in Rome (2014) and Tokyo (2016).In 2018, Urb-IoT is a co-located conference to 4thannual Smart City 360˚Summit, providing even more opportunities for networking and exchange of novel ideas on smart cities.Other co-llocated events are:SMARTGOV 2018,Future5V 2018, GreeNets 2018, MobilityIoT 2018, Intetain2018, INTSYS 2018,HealthyIoT 2018, and MindCare 2018, taking place inGuimarães, Portugal from November 21 to November 23.We are pleased to invite you to submit your paper toUrb-IoT2018.
