Call for Papers


The first International Workshop on Mobile Systems, Applications, and Services for Healthcare solicits innovative and original research papers related to mobile systems as applied to healthcare and wellness. We explicitly encourage submissions related to real deployments and experiences with practical systems. We are interested in, but not limited to, the following research topics on healthcare:

Wearable sensors
Mobile sensing devices
Limitations of sensing (e.g. sampling rate, types of sensing related to healthcare and wellness monitoring)
Energy issues
Security and privacy issues
Communication challenges (in healthcare based mobile systems)
Data quality monitoring and robustness (in the mobile environments)
Realtime sensor data processing on mobile devices
Sensor data analytics
Healthcare and wellness applications on mobile devices
User (patient/medical professional) needs and its impact on system design
Real-life deployments/practical experiences

Accepted papers will appear electronically in the ACM proceedings.

Call for Demos


We are also soliciting demos that showcase innovative and novel mobile sensor systems for healthcare. The scope of work is described above. Demo submissions should be up to 2 pages (including Tables, Figures, and References). Submissions should describe innovative ideas and systems related to mobile systems, applications, and services for healthcare. Detailed description of the demo is expected.

Accepted demos will appear electronically in the ACM proceedings.
