SCOPE
Despite the considerable research effort in the area of Ubiquitous Computing in the past decade, and the maturity of some of its base technologies, many challenges persist. The goal of the 13th Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Services (MobiQuitous 2016) is to provide a forum for presenting and discussing high-quality research in the field at international level, involving practitioners and researchers from diverse backgrounds. MobiQuitous 2016 will thus foster research collaboration through focused discussions, interaction and exchange of experiences that will designate future research efforts and directions. Areas addressed by the conference include systems, applications, social networks, middleware, networking, data management and services, all with special focus on mobility and ubiquitous computing.
TOPICS
We solicit technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by another conference or journal, pertaining to the Internet of Things and Ubiquitous Systems, broadly conceived. Submissions should clearly identify how they relate to issues on mobile and ubiquitous systems. Contributions describing an overall working system and reporting real world deployment experiences are particularly of interest.
Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
· Wireless Access Technologies
· Networked Sensing, and Applications
· Mobile Device Architectures
· Mobile Systems and Applications
· Mobile Data Management and Analytics
· Mobile Multimedia
· Mobile User Interfaces and Interaction Technologies
· Mobile User Experience
· Toolkit and Languages for Mobile Computing
· Energy Aware Mobile Computing
· Mobile Cloud Computing
· Semantic Web Technologies
· Localization and Tracking
· Internet of Things – Systems, Data Analytics, and Applications
· Crowdsourcing – Platforms and Applications
· Participatory Sensing
· Social Network Applications to Mobile Computing
· Context and Location Aware Applications and Services
· Wearable Computing
· Body Area Networks
· Security and Privacy
PUBLICATIONS
We reserve the right to exclude papers accepted but not presented from the conference proceedings submitted for archiving and indexing.
The authors of the best papers will be invited to submit an extended version of their work to a special issue in the Mobile Networks & Applications (MONET) journal. More information: [pdf]
In addition, any authors who presented their papers in Mobiquitous 2016 can submit the extended versions to the IEEE Access Special Section (More information: [pdf]) or EAI endorsed transactions (More information available here: https://eai.eu/transactions
Proceedings are submitted for inclusion to the leading indexing services: EI, ISI Thomson's Scientific and Technical Proceedings at Web of Science, Scopus, CrossRef, Google Scholar, DBLP, MAS, EBSCO, as well as EAI's own EU Digital Library (EUDL).
