Call for Papers
The ACM International Conference on Pervasive Services
July 13-17, 2009
Imperial College, London, UK
**********************************************************************
The International Conference on Pervasive Services is a forum for the presentation and discussion of approaches, research findings, applications and experiences in the area of pervasive computing. The ultimate goal is to envision new trends and ideas about practical aspects of designing, implementing, and evaluating new paradigms/systems for all aspects of pervasive computing including bbdistributed and mobile computing, where services built out of pervasive infrastructure and information, and are seamlessly available anywhere, anytime, and in any format. The conference's technical program will consist of high-quality papers that are selected by the program committee for presentation and publication. ICPS 2009 welcomes paper and poster submissions on innovative work from researchers in academia, industry and government describing boriginal research in the field of cluster computing. Topics of interest include (but not limited to):
- Programming paradigms and architectures pervasive systems,
- Wearable and mobile computing,
- Digital devices, Wi-Fi and sensor networks,
- Programmable and active networks,
- Middleware support for pervasive and mobile computing,
- Pervasive computing administration and management,
- Speech and language processing,
- Advanced computer vision and virtualization,
- User interfaces and interaction models,
- Positioning and tracking technologies,
- Service dissemination and discovery protocols,
- Environments and algorithms for pervasive application development,
- Runtime support for intelligent and adaptive agents,
- Security services for applications in pervasive environments,
- Pervasive computing applications requirements,
- Applications of pervasive services,
- Modelling, benchmarking, and performance of pervasive systems,
- Web 2.0-based services and technologies,
- Future generation pervasive services.
ICPS'2009 invites authors to submit original and unpublished work. Please submit papers (10 pages maximum in double-column format). Paper submission should be electronic in PS or PDF format. Questions concerning hardcopy submissions or any other issues may be directed to the Program Co-Chairs.
