Call For Papers - CFP

Researchers and engineers face new challenges stemming from consumer

habits that continue to shift to encompass both a desktop-centric work

environment as well as a smartphone-centric lifestyle. MobiCASE, the

International Conference on Mobile Computing, Applications, and Services,

will be where theory meets practice in the mobile wireless computing

community. The conference will allow scientists and practitioners from

both academia and industry to highlight their best work in mobile

applications and service provisioning.

We seek novel submissions in mobile applications and systems research in

domain topics above the OSI transport layer with an emphasis on

complete end-to-end systems and their components. The conference will

be organized into two broad categories, with topics of interest including,

but not limited to:

Mobile applications:

* Mobile social networking, such as crowd-sourcing or twittering

* Healthcare, such as emergency notification or body monitoring systems

* Transportation, such as nav-sat systems or traffic congestion management

* Applications for enterprise environments

* Personalization and context-aware applications

* Online mobile targeted advertising

* Novel user experience and interfaces

* Mobile Web 2.0 and mobile web application frameworks (such as Mobile

Ajax, Mobile Flash, J2ME, and others)

* Supporting toolkits, programming languages, or libraries

* Use of hardware features such as accelerometers, touch sensing, and GPS

Service provisioning for mobile users:

* Application lifecycle management and distribution models

* Smartphone platforms (Windows Mobile, Symbian, Android, and others)

* Adaptive, self-configuring applications

* Context-modeling and ontologies

* Support for large-scale, scalable messaging and event processing

* End-user network monitoring and management

* Middleware and distributed systems in support of mobile applications

In addition to scientific research papers, MobiCASE will also host an

industry paper track where industry product groups in mobile computing

can share best practices, real-world observations, and projected near- and

long-term expectations that will hopefully help guide and focus all

attending researchers and practitioners. Research papers should focus on

the design, implementation, and evaluation of complete systems and

components. Papers will be limited to 10 single-spaced, double-column,

8.5" x 11" pages with 10-point font. Industry papers are limited to 8 pages.

MobiCASE requires that all papers (both research and industry) describe

novel, unpublished work, not concurrently under review elsewhere.
