IoT for Smart Cities + R&D Projects on smart {cities, buildings, education and health}
Summer with Science Trainning
Description
Based on the experience of the previous editions of summer and winter schools at ISCTE:
http://istar.iscte-iul.pt/summerschool2019/ and https://istar.iscte-iul.pt/winterschool2020/ the  summer 2020 edition focus on new challenges on Smart Anything, like Smart {Cities, Buildings, Health, and Education}. Using IoT laboratory we will develop in a short time a set of research projects where students will have a strong participation. The summer school will bring knowledge on IoT systems, and research challenges will go prompt through a set of applied use cases. Simoultaneously, the PhD and master students of the Master in Integrated Business Intelligence Systems (MIBIS) will have the opportunity to continue their running projects. The group of PhD students will share their research data and knowledge, supporting data analytics and artificial intelligence approaches in the following fields :
1) Smart Budings, IoT, 3D data representation and user interaction to save energy on shared space at buildings. Associated to the running project Social IoT . 
2) Smart Health, with remote sensing for COVID. The aim of this research is to identify knowledge from sensors and available information.
3) Smart Education. The aim is to extract knowledge from social media data, integrating both qualitative analysis and large-scale data mining techniques, to explore students’ informal conversations and statements on social networks.
4) Smart Cities, with connection to open data laboratory of CMLisboa (https://lisboainteligente.cm-lisboa.pt/lxdatalab/). The goal is to use Lisbon mobility data towards knowledge extraction for the challengers provided by CMLisboa.
The Summer School will last for 13 weeks (W) beginning at July 27, with full time classes in the W1 & W13. The projects will run in the IoT Laboratory facilities from W2-W12, with weekly meetings and 3 evaluations periods (W2, W7 and W12). 
Approach

The students were invited to develop a project in one of the following themes:

Smart Health #1 – COVID Information extraction from text at Hospital and Social Network Smart Health #2 - COVID Image Information Extraction Smart Health #3 - COVID Remote monitor process Smart Building #1 –Things2People – Local Building IoT data in 3D BIM models Smart Building #2 –People2People – 3D users avatars to understand and change user behaviour Smart Education #1- Extract knowledge from student's coments and publications in social media Smart Cities #1 - Id patterns in bike-sharing data (sustainability patterns in the city) Smart Cities #2 Id Lisbon traffic patterns from Waze (How people move in the city)
