We solicit full technical papers which present previously unpublished, original research. Papers will be peer-reviewed by members of the TPC and additional experts from relevant research areas. Papers must be formatted using the standard ACM template sig-alternate.cls and must not exceed 6 pages in PDF format including everything (references, figures, tables, appendices,...). The template is available at http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates. Papers must be submitted via the EDAS interface at: http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=10349
Accepted papers will be included in the electronic proceedings distribued at the workshop. Depending on the quantity and quality of accepted papers we will organize a special edition of a journal or book.
Mobile computing is a related area of pervasive computing. Mobile applications are rapidly developing and becoming more and more important. They consist of software that runs on a smart phone or tablet and perform certain tasks for the user of the cellular phone. In this way, the user can use the application in its personal situation and can take advantage of the mobile phone’s capabilities, such as the camera, positioning and navigation or network access.
Now, mobile devices are becoming even smarter. They are computer networked and user reconfigurable. A device can be seen as part of a cloud or operate autonomously. It is a device, that consists of CPU, storage and network access and has the intelligence to perform services both reactive and proactive. It can also be seen as a part of a smart environment, i.e. interact with a physical world consisting of sensors and actuators, displays and computational elements that are connected through a continuous network.
Currently, smartphones with more advanced computing capabilities and connectivity than classic mobile phones offer more functionalities and run smarter applications. Mobile platforms comprise an increasing number of different sensors such as cameras, accelerometers, gyroscopes etc, thus allowing sophisticated contextualized applications. In addition, users as well as developers benefit from an increasing number of market places and online stores for mobile applications. The concept of a mobile "app" that can be purchased via centralized hubs is already very common among the growing number of users.
Specifically, we solicit original research contributions in the following areas:
