IJPCC 2012 - International Journal of Pervasive Computing and Communication

International Journal of Pervasive Computing and Communication
(IJPCC)

Editor: Ismail Khalil, Johannes Kepler University Linz, Austria

Publisher: Emerald Group Publishing Limited (http://www.emeraldinsight.com/)

Overview
Ubiquitous computing, calm computing, universal computing, invisible
computing, context-aware computing, disappearing computing, proactive
computing, ambient intelligence, everyday computing, sentient
computing, autonomic computing and amorphous computing are but some of
the names pervasive computing goes by as a vision of the future where
computers and computing devices will be available naturally and
unobtrusively every where, anytime, and by different means in our
daily living, working, learning, business, infotainment environments.

Mission
The International journal of Pervasive computing and Communications
(IJPCC) is a refereed international journal publishes four issues per
year, providing an international premier channel to report, discuss
and exchange experimental or theoretical results, novel algorithms,
design methodologies, work-in-progress, experiences, case studies, and
trend-setting ideas in the emerging field of pervasive computing and
communications as well as potential its future directions and issues

Coverage
While IJPCC covers a broad range of topics, we are soliciting papers
that provide a perspective on all aspects of the emerging technologies
in the pervasive computing environment of the future such as wearable
computers, smart homes and smart buildings and the tools that support
these technologies. Papers submitted to IJPCC should be of a quality
that represents the latest technical developments of pervasive
computing and communications in hardware technology, software
infrastructure, novel algorithms, system considerations, physical and
human interaction and ubiquitous applications. The journal covers all
aspects of pervasive computing and communications. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:

- Pervasive Computing Architectures/ Distributed software systems
- Middleware and frameworks for Pervasive Computing
- Analysis, design, implementation and evaluation of pervasive
computing systems and environments
- RFID Technologies
- Sensors and Actuators Networks/ Computational Perception
- Smart Objects, Environments and Interactions
- New Technologies / New Materials / Small Artefacts
- Displays / Vision / Mixed Reality Systems
- Spontaneous / Wireless / Mobile Communication and Infrastructures
- Ambient Networking and Intelligent Services
- Networked Embedded Systems
- Context/Location/Situation Awareness / Self-Managing Systems
- Internet of Things
- Coordination Models and Systems
- Pervasive/multi-modal Interaction/Intelligent Management
- Interaction Models / Interaction Design
- User Interfaces (Universal/Tangible/Attentive)
- QoS in Pervasive Communications
- Emerging Industrial / Business Models
- Social / Privacy / Security Issues

Submission Guidelines
Submission should be sent to the editor at (ismail.khalil-AT-jku.at).
Each paper is reviewed by the editor and, if it is judged suitable for
this publication, it is then sent to two referees for double blind
peer review. Based on their recommendations, the editors then decides
whether the paper should be accepted as it is, revised or rejected.
