Overview

The 2012 International Workshop on Context-Aware Computing Applications and Services via Wireless Sensor Network (CAC-WSN 2012) will be held Gwangju, Korea, September 6-8, 2012.
The CAC-WSN 2012 will be the most comprehensive workshop focused on Context-Aware Computing and Wireless Sensor Network (CAC-WSN). The Workshop will provide an opportunity for academic and industry
professionals to discuss the latest issues and progress in the area of CAC-WSN such as Ubiquitous and context-aware computing, context-awareness reasoning and representation, locations awareness
services, architectures, protocols and algorithms of WSN, energy, management and control of WSN, etc.  In addition, the workshop will publish high quality papers which are closely related to the various theories and practical applications in CAC-WSN. Furthermore, we expect that the workshop and its publications will be a trigger for further related research and technology improvements in this important subject.
