[Scope]

The Ninth Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems:
Computing, Networking and Services (MobiQuitous 2012) will provide a forum
for practitioners and researchers from diverse backgrounds to interact and
exchange experiences about the design and implementation of mobile and
ubiquitous systems. Areas addressed by the conference include systems,
applications, social networks, middleware, networking, data management and
services, all with special focus on mobility and ubiquitous computing.

[Topics]

We solicit technical papers describing original, previously unpublished
research, not currently under review by another conference or journal.
Submissions should clearly identify how they relate to issues on mobile and
ubiquitous systems. Contributions describing an overall working system are
particularly of interest. Topics include, but are not limited to, the
following:

- Architectures, systems and applications
- Wearable computing
- Personal area networks
- Wireless technologies (Bluetooth, ZigBee, 802.15.x, WiFi, WiMAX)
- Wireless Internet access in ubiquitous systems
- Ad hoc and sensor network support for ubiquitous computing
- Reconfigurability and personalization
- Wireless/mobile service management and delivery
- Security and privacy
- Social networks
- Trust Computation, Propagation and Use
- Community based computing
- Service and knowledge discovery, matching and composition mechanisms
- Localization and tracking
- Context- and location-aware applications and services
- Agent technologies in ubiquitous, wearable, and mobile systems
- Toolkits, testbed, development environments, and languages for ubiquitous
computing
- Rapid prototyping of ubiquitous applications
- Mobile and ubiquitous data management and processing
- Queries, transactions and workflows in mobile and ubiquitous environments
- Multimodal interfaces (speech, video kinetic, tactile)
- User generated content Mixed (virtual/real) world infrastructures
- Energy efficient in communications and networking
- Energy efficient algorithms
- Energy-aware mechanisms
- Modeling and simulation on green communications and networking

[Publications]

Papers will be rigorously reviewed by the international technical program
committee. Accepted papers will be published by Springer in the Lecture
Notes of the Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and
Telecommunications Engineering (LNICST) series. LNICST volumes are
submitted for inclusion to leading indexing services, including DBLP,
Google Scholar, ACM Digital Library, ISI Proceedings, EI Engineering Index,
CrossRef, Scopus.

[Paper submission]

Paper submission will be handled electronically (see the instructions).
Authors should prepare an Adobe Acrobat PDF version of their full paper.
Papers must not exceed 12 pages single column (US Letter size, 8.5 x 11
inches) including text, figures and references. The font size must be at
least 10 points.

[Workshop proposals]

Proposals for workshops are solicited. Potential instructors are requested
to submit a workshop proposal of at most 5 pages, including biographical
sketch of each organizers, to the Workshop Chairs by June 1st, 2012.
Evaluation of workshop proposals will be based on the expertise and
experience of the organizers and the relevance of the subject matter.
