Call for Workshop Proposals
Introduction
The EAI MobiQuitous 2026 Industry Track invites submissions of high-quality papers focusing on the intersection of academic research and industrial application in mobile and ubiquitous systems. This track provides a unique forum for researchers and practitioners from both industry and academia to present and discuss experimental research using real-world data, case studies, and deployed systems. We encourage submissions on novel, cross-cutting themes that demonstrate practical value and real-world impact. Submissions from international and multidisciplinary teams are strongly encouraged to foster diverse perspectives.
