SPECIAL SESSION: Mission Critical Applications over LTE
The 7th International Conference on Next Generation Mobile Applications, Services and Technologies (NGMAST2013) will be hosted by the Czech Technical University in the beautiful city of Prague following the significant success of previous conferences in Paris (2012), Cardiff (2007, 08,09,11) and Amman (2010).
Following the established tradition, NGMAST'13 will focus on all novel aspects of technology, application and service development within the Mobile and Wireless Communications community. It aims to bring together a wide spectrum of international experts from the fields of research, business and policy, to facilitate a creative forum for the promotion of collaboration and knowledge transfer. In particular it will facilitate a dialogue between Government, SMEs, major industry players and academia to help create pathways for the development of common goals in a convergent network environment.
The three day conference programme will combine keynote speakers from both industry and academia with a multi-track technical programme. There will be opportunities to attend interactive, high quality, peer reviewed sessions which will provide detailed insights from forward thinkers working in the themes of the conference. The conference will include a number of specialised workshops as well. Additionally there will be an exhibition for both international business and niche market SMEs to display their latest products and services and to undertake a range of networking opportunities.
The conference is hosted by the Czech Technical University in Prague and organised jointly by the Centre of Excellence in Mobile Applications and Services (CEMAS) and it partners in the Mobile Innovation Network (MINE), UK
