CALL FOR PAPERS
[Scope]
Ambient media and systems culminate from the emergence of mobile
communications, sensor-actuator technology, virtual environments, and
interactive computing. They represent the vision of an all-encompassing
multimedia networking environment with human interaction at its core.
Advances in computer and communication technologies have the potential
to offer people an unprecedented level of convenience and flexibility
for living and working. Such technologies need to be closely integrated
with human interactions and activity, allowing greater support for smart
solutions that improve quality of life, productivity, understanding and
intelligence within their situated environment. Ambi-sys focuses on
emerging technologies, services and solutions for new, human-centric
intelligent ambient environments.
The conference will explore such techniques, and aims to serve as a
premier international forum for discussions, bringing together academic
and industrial researchers, practitioners, and students interested in
future techniques relating to the emergence of mobile communications,
sensor-actuator technology, virtual environments, and interactive
computing, networking, technologies, systems, and applications.
[Topics]
The conference will consist of the following major areas or tracks:
- Communications and Networking, which will be covering Wireless
communications, Heterogeneous and Body Area networks, Ambient sensors,
actuators and networking, Quality of service and system performance,
