Welcome to MobiQuitous 2009

The Sixth Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Services

July 13 -16, 2009 (tentative) - Toronto, Canada.

Sponsored by ICST

Technically-sponsored by Create-Net, ACM-SIGMOBILE (pending),
IEEE Computer Society (pending) and IEEE Communication Society (pending)

Scope

The Sixth Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Services (MobiQuitous 2009) will provide a forum for practitioners and researchers from diverse backgrounds to interact and exchange experiences about the design and implementation of mobile and ubiquitous systems. 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.

Papers

We solicit technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by another conference or journal. Submissions should clearly identify how they relate to issues on mobile and ubiquitous systems. Contributions describing an overall working system are particularly of interest. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

Ubiquitous architectures, systems and applications
Wearable computing and personal area networks
Wireless technologies (Bluetooth, ZigBee, 802.15.x, WiFi, WiMAX)
Wireless Internet access in ubiquitous systems
Ad hoc and sensor network support for ubiquitous computing
Reconfigurability and personalization of wireless networks
Wireless/mobile service management and delivery
Security and privacy of mobile and ubiquitous systems
Social Networks
Trust Computation, Propagation and Use
Community based computing
Service and knowledge discovery, matching and composition mechanisms

Location-based services and tracking in ubiquitous environments
Context- and location-aware applications
Agent technologies in ubiquitous, wearable, and mobile systems
Energy efficiency and awareness
Toolkits, testbeds, development environments, and languages for ubiquitous computing
Rapid prototyping of ubiquitous applications
Mobile and ubiquitous data management and processing
Data replication, migration and dissemination in ubiquitous environments
Queries, transactions and workflows in mobile and ubiquitous environments
Multimodal interfaces (speech, video kinetic, tactile)
Mixed (virtual/real) world infrastructures
