PerCom 2013 - 11th IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications

IEEE PerCom 2013
11th IEEE Int. Conf. on Pervasive Computing and Communications
March 18-22, 2013 - San Diego, CA, USA
CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS
IEEE PerCom, now in its 11th edition, is the premier conference for presenting
scholarly research in pervasive computing and communications. Advances in this
field are leading to innovative platforms, protocols, systems and applications
for always-on, always-connected services.
The PerCom 2013 Organizing Committee invites proposals for one-day or half-day
workshops affiliated with the conference. The workshops will be held prior to,
or immediately after, the main conference. The purpose of these workshops is to
provide a venue for presenting novel ideas in a less formal and typically more
focused area than at the conference itself.
Please visit http://www.percom.org to learn about earlier PerCom workshops.
Note that PerCom workshops are expected to enable stimulating discussions of
state-of-the-art, emerging, visionary, and perhaps controversial topics.
Workshops should be organized to promote such lively interaction. Plans to
promote interaction and discussion should be clearly addressed in workshop
proposals.
Workshop proposals are solicited in all areas and topics pertaining to
pervasive computing and communications research and applications. Workshops
addressing new emerging research directions in pervasive computing and
communication are especially welcome.
Proposal Submission Guidelines:
Each workshop proposal must include:
- The name of the workshop.
- The preferred date of the workshop (Monday or Friday).
- The names, addresses, and a short bio (up to 200 words) of the organizers (up

- A brief description (up to 1 page) of the technical issues that the workshop
will address and the reasons why the workshop is of interest at this time.
Please also include a short discussion of related workshops and conferences
and outline why the proposed workshop is unique.
- The names of potential program committee members, and some consideration on
the communities/groups it intends to attract.

and interactive discussions.
