Call for Workshop Proposals

MobiQuitous 2022 invites proposals for workshops of the 19th International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Services, to be held as a fully-fledged online conference (with an on-site possibility), November 14-17, 2022.

We are soliciting workshop proposals on any topic relevant to Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing. All workshops will be held on 14th November 2022. Workshops are a great opportunity for community building and a forum for attendees with common interests. Accepted workshop papers are included in the adjunct proceedings of the Mobiquitous Conference and will be accessible via the Springer digital library.

Pre-proposal Submission Inquiries

Should you wish to discuss ideas for a workshop proposal, feel free to contact the Workshop Chairs: Jian Liu ([email protected]) and VP Nguyen ([email protected]).

Workshop Proposal Content

The proposal should be prepared as a document of no more than 4 pages in the official Springer proceedings format using a tighter alternate style (Word, Latex). Also, please include a Call for Papers. The document should describe the topic, rationale, and objectives for the workshop, the organizers’ backgrounds and bio, and an estimate of expected attendance. In the case of follow-up workshops, please provide statistics from any previously held workshops and a detailed plan (timeline) for conducting the workshop (including any plans for pre-workshop preparation and/or post-workshop follow-up).

Workshop Selection Process

Workshops will be reviewed based on several factors, including:

* The potential for the topic of the workshop to generate stimulating discussions and useful results.

In the case of multiple submissions on similar topics, organizers may be encouraged to merge them.
