March 19-23, 2012 - Lugano, Switzerland

CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS
****************************************
IEEE PerCom, now  in its 10th 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 2012 Organizing Committee invites proposals for one-day  or half-day
workshops affiliated with  he 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.

Workshops  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.
