Call for Papers  PhD Forum  ULOOP/NEMPS Summer School 2013 (UNPF2013)

The ULOOP/NEMPS Summer School 2013 PhD Forum provides an environment for 
doctoral students to present and discuss their ongoing research both with peers 
and experts from academia and industry. The Forum provides students with an 
opportunity to get feedback on their ongoing work, as well as to get acquainted 
with new advances in the field. The forum gives students worldwide the 
opportunity to mingle with peers, as well as with senior researchers coming 
from industry and from academia. This is a unique opportunity for the exchange 
of know-how; to get feedback from experts concerning the research being 
developed, as well as to get a better perspective on future opportunities.

The ULOOP/NEMPS Summer School 2013 has as main motivation to disseminate and to 
provide know-how concerning aspects related to pervasive systems. In regards to 
pervasive systems we provide lectures by international experts in the following 
topics: user-centric wireless network aspects such as social trust management 
and cooperation incentives; mobility estimation and management; intelligent 
resource management. Moreover, the Summer School shall also give insight into 
three new exciting applicability fields: people-centric services; cooperative 
ITS; machine-to-machine communications.

The PhD Forum is hosted by SITILabs, University Lusfona, and is supported by 
the European project ULOOP  User-centric Wireless Local Loop  and by the PhD 
programme NEMPS (New Media and Pervasive Systems) of University Lusfona. 

The PhD Forum takes place on day 4 (04.07.2012) of the ULOOP/NEMPS Summer 
School, from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm.

The students selected shall provide an extended abstract (maximum 2 pages,

dissertation work. Posters shall be grouped accordingly to the different topics 
of the ULOOP summer school, namely:

Community detection and social interaction Dynamic trust management models and 
cooperation incentive models Distributed mobility management Human behavior and 
mobility prediction Virtual currency architectures and models Resource 
management in spontaneous environments Cooperative networking
