TheWorldConferenceonInformationSystemsandTechnologies(WorldCIST)
is a global forum for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss recent
results andinnovations, currenttrends, professionalexperiences, andchallenges of
moderninformationsystemsandtechnologiesresearch,technologicaldevelopment,
and applications. One of its main aims is to strengthen the drive towards a holistic
symbiosis between academy, society and industry. WorldCIST’17 built on the
successesofWorldCIST’13,heldatOlhão,Algarve,Portugal;WorldCIST’14held
at Funchal, Madeira, Portugal; WorldCIST’15 held at São Miguel, Azores,
Portugal; and WorldCIST’16 which took place at Recife, Pernambuco, Brazil.

Interoperability, Security and Efficiency, (ix) New Pedagogical Approaches with
Technologies, (x) ICT solutions with Unmanned Aircraft Vehicles, (xi) Internet of
ThingsforHealth,(xii)PervasiveInformationSystems.
WorldCIST’17 received about 400 contributions from 51 countries around the
world. The papers accepted for presentation and discussion at the Conference are
published by Springer (this book) and by AISTI (one issue in the Journal of
Information Systems Engineering & Management) and will be submitted for
indexing by ISI, EI-Compendex, Scopus, DBLP and/or Google Scholar, among
others. Extended versions of selected best papers will be published in relevant
journals, mainly SCI/SSCI and Scopus indexed journals.
