Call for Papers (PDF)
Recent years have witnessed an enormous growth in the development and applications of mobile computing environments and devices. Many practitioners envision a future empowered with context and location aware computation and communication infrastructure that allow users to access data and receive service at any place and any time. Compared to conventional platforms, the mobility of computing nodes introduces many challenges to the design of almost all systems components.
This symposium will foster a forum for discussing and presenting recent research results on mobile computer systems. Original papers are invited in the broader area of mobile computing. Papers must report high-quality and previously unpublished work. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
Architecture and infrastructure support
Middleware and operating systems services
Development platforms and environments
Adaptive resource management schemes
Pervasive and Context-aware Computing
Performance metrics and studies
Power aware computation and communication
Data consistency and synchronization protocols
Fault-tolerant architectural and operation models
Wearable computing devices and systems
Robust ad-hoc networking techniques
Efficient localization techniques
Wireless sensor networks
Mobile peer to peer systems
Quality of service provisioning
Context-conscious computing
Web caching and services
Emerging applications and systems
Mobile agents
Mobile commerce
