Scope

Awareness is the ability to be conscious of, feel or perceive (Wikipedia). It implies vigilance in observing or alertness in drawing inferences from what one experiences (Merriam-Webster). The ultimate goal of aware computing is to create a computing machine/system that is able to be aware. Application examples include context awareness, situation/background awareness, power awareness, location/position awareness, weakness/risk/danger awareness, safety/security awareness, chance/opportunity awareness, etc. An aware system may not be as intelligent as a human, but it will certainly be more autonomous and more human-like than conventional systems. This workshop provides a forum for engineers, researchers, and scientists to exchange the latest results in this emerging new field. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:

Context/situation/background aware computing

Intention/emotion/preference aware computing

Location/position aware computing

Power/capability aware computing

Weakness/risk/danger aware computing

Safety/security aware computing

Chance/opportunity aware computing

Important Dates

May 15, 2009 (Fri):

Deadline for submission of 1,000 word extended summary

June 19, 2009 (Fri):

Notification of acceptance

July 17, 2009 (Fri):

Submission of final camera-ready papers

Paper Submission and Publication

Acceptance of papers will be decided based on a 1,000 word extended summary. The final camera-ready papers should not exceed 6 pages. All accepted papers will be published in the proceeding of the FAN09 symposium. Well presented papers at IWAC09 will be asked to be revised, and recommended to be published in a special issue of International Journal of Innovative Computing, Information and Control (http://www.ijicic.org, indexed by SCI) on Aware Computing.
