Preface
It is a pleasure to welcome everyone to the proceedings of the GOODTECHS 2017
Conference. This was the third edition of the conference and we believe that this
conferencecouldbecomeapointofattractionforresearchersworkinginthisarea.This
year the conference was held in Pisa, a historical academic and cultural center.
The main focus of GOODTECHS is the design, implementation, deployment,
andevaluationofsmartobjectsandtechnologiesforsocialgood.Clearly,weconsider
not only these scenarios, but also significant areas where ICT is currently less wide-
spread, hoping that it may represent a societal development opportunity rather than a
source for further digital divide.
The conference program comprised technical papers selected through peer reviews
by the Technical Program Committee members. After the evaluation process we
selected 38 full papers (i.e., a selection rate of 54%). Moreover, we would like to
emphasize that GOODTECHS 2017 included two keynote lectures, delivered by
experts in their fields: David Plans (University of Surrey, UK) and Stefano Ferretti
(University of Bologna, Italy).
We would like to thank the EAI for the support and all the members of the con-
ferencecommitteesandthereviewersfortheirdedicatedandpassionatework.Noneof
this would happened without the support and curiosity of the authors who sent their
papers to this event.
Finally,wewouldliketoencouragecurrentandfutureauthorstocontinueworking
in this direction and to participate in events like this conference in order to exchange
knowledge and experiences and to make ICT helpful to society.
