IMPORTANT DATES ---------------- • Full Paper Submission: January 10, 2010 • Acceptance Notification: March 15, 2010 • Camera-Ready Submission: May 01, 2010 • Conference Days: July 26-28, 2010
The International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks and Technologies (ANT-2010) is a leading international conference which provides an international forum for researchers, developers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government to address research challenges and to present and discuss research ideas, developments and experiences related to the ambient systems infrastructure, models, and technologies. The general aim of ambient systems is to provide an environment wherein computing devices exist anywhere and everywhere. In such systems mobile and embedded computing devices form ad hoc collaboration using different communication networks (e.g., wireless networks, RFID, etc) in order to share and exchange information and provide services. Ambient systems pose new research challenges due to the open and unreliable nature of the environment and the complexity and heterogeneity of the computing devices and the underlying communication networks. These characteristics challenge traditional techniques and demand new ways of approaching the problems related to the ambient systems.
TOPICS OF INTEREST ----------------------------- Prospective authors are invited to submit papers to the following research tracks. Details on topics of each track are available at the conference website.
