Call For Papers
Recent advances in cloud computing and mobile networks have triggered interest 
in a new computing paradigm called mobile cloud computing. Smart devices and 
Internet play vital role in deploying a wide variety of applications using 
mobile cloud computing. The mobile phones, for example, are not just an 
entertaining system any more  as the technology grows every day, all handhold 
gadgets are getting smarter enough to handle time and mission critical 
applications which are, indeed, important for human life. On the other side, 
cloud computing has made a revolution on the computing world by using the 
non-traditional devices and mechanisms for computing purposes. When these two 
fields converge, it can be used to address many real-life problems. 
Consequently, currently, a variety of applications are being ported on mobile 
devices and integrated with the clod infrastructure successfully. Health 
applications and systems are gaining huge attention from various
communities and mobile cloud computing helps in meeting the challenges of 
pervasive heath care environment. However, the limited capabilities of mobile 
devices require the support of cloud services to cater to the demands of health 
applications. The emerging mobile cloud computing technology offers promising 
solutions to develop health related applications. This workshop is aimed at 
addressing issues related to the development of mobile cloud computing based 
architectures, deployment models, application development, and tools and 
techniques that would contribute to the development of next generation of 
health care systems. This workshop invites high quality unpublished research 
papers that consist of the state-of-the-art research and development of mobile 
cloud computing for health related applications. 

Topics of interest include, but not limited to:

    Design of Methods and Protocols
    Architectures and deployment models
    Channel allocation, scheduling and bandwidth management policies 
    Modeling, simulation studies on health related applications
    Methods, Tools and Techniques for mobile cloud based health applications
    QoS, QoE models and performance issues
    Studies on Virtualization and cloud infrastructure
    data and storage architectures 
    Studies on impacts of social media and network analysis with a focus on 
health applications

Submission
Perspective authors are invited to submit their papers using EDAS System 
(http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=14603). A full paper should not have more than 
five (5) IEEE style pages including results, figures and references. Papers 
will be reviewed with the standard reviewing procedure (with at least 3 
independent anonymous reviews). Accepted papers will be published on IEEExplore 
(http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/).
