Aims and Scope
The second series of the International Workshop on Situated Computing for Pervasive Environments (SCOPE-2012) is dedicated to the dissemination of original works that are related to the theories of emerging paradigms yet most importantly of their applicability towards autonomous adaptation to complex environments caused from highly dynamic user contexts. In particular, SCOPE-2012 will discuss advances in situated and pervasive computing, that is to say about technologies for, and computational devices having the autonomous ability of adapting, detecting, interpreting and responding to the personalized future smart environments.
Topics
Topics of interest include (but not limited to):
Autonomous Adaptation and Personalized Environments
Changing Network Environments and Recommender Systems
Distributed Environments, Crowd and Collaborative Computing
