OVERVIEW
=========================
With the proliferation of wireless technologies and electronic devices, there is
a fast growing interest in Ubiquitous and Pervasive Computing (UPC). UPC enables
to create a human-oriented computing environment where computer chips are embedded
in everyday objects and interact with physical world. Through UPC, people can get
online even while moving around, thus having almost permanent access to their
preferred services. With a great potential to revolutionize our lives, UPC also
poses new research challenges. IMIS International Conference will focus on the
challenges and solutions for UPC with an emphasis on innovative, mobile and internet
services. The conference will provide an opportunity for academic and industry
professionals to discuss the latest issues and progress in the area of UPC.
The conference will publish high quality papers, which are closely related to the
various theories and practical applications in UPC. In addition, we expect that
the conference and its publications will be a trigger for further related research
and technology improvements in this important subject.
Topics (included, but are not limited to):
-Theoretical foundations for UPC
-Algorithmic paradigms, models and analysis for UPC
-Context-aware scheme
-Smart spaces and intelligent environments
-Embedded systems and wearable computers
-Middleware and agent technologies
-Programming paradigms for pervasive and ubiquitous computing applications
-Knowledge-based Systems
-Mobile Internet and mobility management
-Wireless sensors, ad-hoc and mesh networks
-Security issues and protocols
-Security threats and model
-Authentication and Access control
-Privacy and trust
-Ubiquitous Computing Applications
-Business model and protocols for ubiquitous services
-Emerging standards and technologies
