IEEE/IFIP- MATA'2005 2nd International Workshop on Mobility Aware Technologies and Applications "Service Delivery Platforms for Next Generation Networks" October 17-19, 2005, Montreal, Canada http://www.congresbcu.com/mata2005/
Scope ===== In face of the emerging notion of seamless services and next generation networks (NGNs) driven by the convergence of the mobile internet and fixed / mobile telecommunication networks, mobility aware technologies and middleware play an important role. The aim of the workshop is to provide an opportunity for academic and industrial researchers and developers from the IT, internet and telecommunications domains, as well as network operators, and service providers to discuss the advances in mobility aware technologies and their applications in the field of NGN. The workshop will focus on new concepts, protocols and architectures as well as recent developments of mobility aware middleware, service delivery platform technologies and related applications within the fields of terminal, network and service provisioning and management, service control for multimedia services, policy-based service control and management, adaptable telecommunication systems and applications, programmable networks and devices / autonomic communications, ambient networks, intelligent appliances, smart end systems and smart environments, Emphasis will be given to specific MATA aspects, such as security, interoperability, performance, context awareness, mobility and presence management, as well as new mobile application fields, business models and related topics.
Full Papers ========== Authors are invited to submit a full paper of up to 10 pages including figures, tables, references and annexes. The proceedings of the conference will be published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes on Computer Science series. A special issue featuring the best papers is planned as well. Submissions should follow the LNCS style. The document must be in Acrobat PDF or MS-Word format. Further details on submission can be found at: http://www.congresbcu.com/mata2005/
Short Papers and Posters ======================== Authors are invited to submit an extended abstract of maximum two pages for a short paper and one page for a Poster.
