The success of M-Commerce is basically dependent on the development and acceptance of new wireless technologies over 3G and 4G networks as well as intelligent service platforms on mobile devices. However, to fully exploit the high growth potentials of M-commerce there is a strong need to adopt existing E-commerce approaches for wireless networks and to develop new sophisticated mobile applications to meet the needs of mobile subscribers, for example in the areas of financial transactions, mobile marketing and gaming, as well as location and context-aware services. Compared with the traditional wired E-commerce, wireless networks and mobile devices impose additional constraints, challenges, and requirements on building M-commerce platforms and applications, for example content adaptation, security and privacy issues, and mobile payment mechanisms. The Second IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Commerce and Services (WMCS) brings together researchers, scientists, software architects, and industry professionals with the aim of discussing and exchanging innovative ideas and research work in M-commerce and services. The topics for submissions include but are not limited to the following fields: - Novel M-commerce applications and services - Location and context-aware M-commerce services - Service platforms for supporting M-commerce (mobile web enterprise) - Brokerage and service discovery mechanisms - Middleware, mobile components, and agent technologies supporting M-commerce - Platforms for client applications in mobile devices (J2ME, Symbian) - Digital Rights Management - Wireless security problems & solutions, and mobile privacy - Mobile payment solutions, systems and platforms - New wireless multimedia technologies and platforms for M-commerce (e.g., DVB-H) - Inter-organizational service provisioning (business models and their realization) - Wireless advertising solutions, systems and platforms - Mobile entertainment applications, services and platforms for digital mu-sic, videos and games - Case-studies and experiences (experience reports) Submissions ----------- Authors are invited to submit original and significant research contributions in the aforementioned areas. All submissions will be peer-reviewed by the members of the international program committee. It is planned to publish the proceedings in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science ( http://www.springeronline.de). In addition, a selection of the best papers will be published in a special issue of "Electronic Commerce Research and Applications". Full papers must not exceed 16 pages and conform to the LNCS style. We accept papers in PDF and PS format. Authors should submit a full paper via EDAS, see http://www.wmcs2005.org/ and http://edas.info/home.cgi?c=4440 for details.

apologies for possible multiple copies of this message] we are pleased to inform you that the *Thirteenth International Workshop on Quality of Service (IWQoS 2005)* * *will be held in the University of Pasau, Germany, on June 21-23, 2005 Call for papers (full version pdf-file: see appendix) IWQoS has emerged as the prime annual event on Quality-of-Service (QoS)-related research and technologies. Building on the successes of previous workshops, the objective of the workshop is to bring together researchers, developers, and practitioners working in this area to discuss recent and innovative results, and identify future directions and challenges. IWQoS has a long standing tradition of being highly interactive while maintaining highest standards of competitiveness and excellence. This characteristic will be re-emphasized by intercepting the regular paper sessions with stimulating discussion events about controversial and cutting edge topics. The program will include the following highlights: * Key Note by Industrial Speaker * A Panel on "Self-Organization and QoS" by David Hutchison, Lancaster Univ, U.K. * A Position Paper Session on "The Impact of QoS: Where Industry meets Academia" by Francois Le Faucheur, Cicso Systems France and Georgios Karagiannis, Twente Univ., The Netherlands. * A Works in Progress Session focusing on emerging research * Key Note and Invited Paper by Randy Katz, UC Berkeley, U.S.A. * Industrial Exhibition and Demonstration of Tools and Methods related to Quality of Communication <http://www.fmi.uni-passau.de/lehrstuehle/demeer/iwqos/cfexhib.html> by Jan de Meer, Institute for High-performance Microelectronics GmbH, Frankfurt (Oder), Germany The panel and the short paper sessions will be highly interactive and leave much time and space for the audience to get involved. The position and short papers will go through the general reviewing process but the papers must specifically be submitted to fit the track. Short versions of regular technical papers will not be accepted here. It is rather encouraged to submit work that is either stimulating with a long term vision or that points to immediate relevance with need for controversial debate to address the foremost experts at the venue. Technical Program Quality of Service principles can be applied to a large number of domains. Our goal is to broaden the areas that QoS research can be pulled from by recognizing the multi-disciplinary aspect to much of the research. In addition to the traditional areas, the call for papers does solicit, but is not limited to, papers in such areas as: * QoS in mobile/wireless environments, Sensor networks, 4G (IP for 3G) * QoS in overlays and peer-to-peer networks * QoS in GRID environments * SLA: end-to-end QoS, QoS in large scale, heterogeneous environments * QoS-aware software components: QoS for Web Services * QoS and self-organizing systems * New frontiers of QoS * QoS measurement versus control * QoS adaptation versus resource reservation * Hidden QoS issues, have we just learned to ignore QoS problems? * QoS in context aware systems (also related to mobility) * User perception/user interfaces for QoS * QoS and distributed systems * QoS and middleware * Fault tolerance and QoS * QoS in ad hoc networks * Economics and QoS * Security, trust and QoS * QoS in the home and everywhere * QoS and new media * QoS and haptics , virtual environments * QoS in buisiness processes, workflows IWQoS aims to allow rapid dissemination of research results and to provide fast turnaround. The deadline for papers is therefore as close to the conference as the publishers allow. The workshop is a single-track forum spanning two and a half days. It values both theoretical contributions and practical experience. Web Site: http://www.fmi.uni-passau.de/iwqos Best Student Paper Award Award will be given at the conference to the best student paper, whose first author is a current student. Paper Submission IWQoS invites submission of manuscripts that present original research results, and that have not been previously published or currently under review by another conference or journal. Any previous or simultaneous publication of related material should be explicitly noted in the submission. Submissions should be full-length papers that are no longer than 20 double-spaced single-column pages with font sizes of 11 or larger, including all figures and references, and must include an abstract of 100 -- 150 words. All papers must be submitted in either Postscript or the Adobe PDF format, and no other formats are accepted by the paper submission web site. Submissions will be judged on originality, significance, interest, clarity, relevance, and correctness. At least one of the authors of each accepted paper must present the paper at IWQoS 2004. The paper submission can be done here <http://www.net.fmi.uni-passau.de/crp>. Short Position Papers for Industry Session and Works in Progress We solicit submissions of short papers for the two sessions outlined above. The short papers are limited to three single-spaced pages. Accepted papers will be presented in a 15-minute time period, and will be included in the conference proceedings. Important Dates: * Paper abstract deadline: February 16th , 2005, 11:59pm CET * Full paper submission deadline: February 22th , 2005, 11:59pm CET * Short paper submission deadline: March 7th, 2005, 11:59pm CET * Notification of acceptance: March 24th , 2005 * Camera-ready papers due: April 8, 2005 * Hotel reservation cut-off date: May 19th , 2005 * Early registration deadline: April 8th, 2005 * Workshop dates: June 21-23 , 2005 * Workshop reception and welcome party: June 20th, 2005 Organizational Objectives Among strong industrial and academic support the 13th IWQoS is supported by the three organizing institutions: * University of Passau, Germany * HP Laboratories Palo Alto, California USA * IHP Institute on Microelectronics GmbH, Brandenburg Germany The University of Passau will host the all conference activities; it provides excellent conference support for up to 1,000 participants. Features of university support include: * Support desk in the conference area with professional team to handle technical and logistical issues. * Lecture room with 180 seats, video projector, internet access * WLAN connection * Reserved lunch area on the Inn river banks * Exhibition space *Program Chairs: *Hermann De Meer University of Passau Passau, Germany mail: demeer(a)fmi.uni-passau.de <mailto:demeer@fmi.uni-passau.de> Nina Bhatti Hewlett Packard Laboratories Palo Alto, California USA email: nina.bhatti(a)hp.com <mailto:nina.bhatti@hp.com>

The flow of user/control information, as a result of a large number of users, typically experiences a stochastic nature. Teletraffic Science is a well-established field. It is based on the theory and on methods of probability and stochastic processes on one hand, and on methods for control such as scheduling, synchronization of concurrent processes and queuing, on the other hand. Teletraffic Science is therefore strongly related to subjects as performance modeling, queuing theory, operations research, computer science and telecommunications. Teletraffic Engineering is based on the knowledge of the organization and technology of modern, computer controlled telecommunication systems such as switching systems, computer networks, broadband and mobile communications systems, for the integration of a broad spectrum of telecommunication services such as voice, audio, graphics, video, individually or in combination (multimedia), and all kinds of computer and data base applications. Teletraffic Engineering comprises methods and tools for modeling of telecommunication systems and services, performance evaluation, resource dimensioning, cost optimization, forecasting, planning and network management. The International Teletraffic Congress (ITC) has a long tradition. It was founded in 1955; since then, 18 ITC World Congresses, 16 ITC Specialist Seminars and 18 Regional Seminars have been held. ITC covers topics from networking technologies (telecommunication networks, mobile communication networks, internet), architectures and protocols, teletraffic measurements and traffic modeling, queuing theory and performance evaluation, traffic engineering, network planning and network management. ITC has strong links with ITU, both with the ITU-T (Telecommunication Standardization) and ITU-D (Development Sector, BDT), and supports training in Telecommunication and Teletraffic Engineering. ITC is guided by the International Advisory Council (IAC), which is supported by associated members and experts from research, development and network operations and standards organizations (ITU-TS, ETSI, and IETF). The IAC is proud that ITC19 will be hosted by China . On behalf of the IAC, I would like to invite experts and research students from all mentioned fields to contribute to ITC19 in order to make it a great event. Paul J. Kuehn Chairman, IAC of ITC University of Stuttgart, Germany -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INVITATION FROM CHAIRMAN The 19th International Teletraffic Congress (ITC19) will be held in Beijing , P. R. China, from August 29 to September 2, 2005. On behalf of China Institute of Communications (CIC) and Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT), we would like to extend our warm welcome to professionals, engineers, entrepreneurs and friends working in the fields of teletraffic theory and its applications to come to Beijing and participate in ITC19. Participants will be able to take this opportunity to exchange ideas and experiences, and share with us new progress and achievements in IT and telecommunications field. Since the first International Seminar on Teletraffic and Network (ISTN), which was the branch of ITC in China , initiated by us in 1988, we have witnessed a steadily increasing activity in China in telecommunications network and technologies. China has gained a leading status today in information communication science and technology, with the developments of IT and telecommunications around the world. Hundreds of experts, scholars, entrepreneurs, as well as graduate and postgraduate students in the relevant areas will be expected to attend this congress. As the host and sponsor of the congress, we will do our utmost to put the ITC19 into a success. Beijing is the capital of the P. R. China. It has been the capital of six feudal dynasties in the Chinese history. The Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace and Zhoukou Dian Site of Beijing ape-man, are only a few of the famous spots of the long history of Beijing. They are also the epitome of the splendid Chinese culture, with large amount of cultural relics and historical wonders, which are listed by the UNESCO as world natural and cultural heritages. On behalf of the organizing committee of ITC19, we sincerely welcome you and your family to Beijing. We believe you will have an enjoyable and fruitful trip in both technical and leisure aspects.
