COMPUTER COMMUNICATIONS - SPECIAL ISSUE ON ADVANCED LOCATION-BASED SERVICES
****************************************************************************
Advances in end-system devices, localization techniques and availability of positioning data, information technology, mobile cellular networks, and the Internet are allowing innovative applications and services that may have been unattainable only a few years ago. At the same time, the proliferation of powerful and handy mobile devices makes these innovations more convenient than ever. This special issue of Computer Communications will provide researchers from academia and industry an avenue to present their possible solutions on the development, deployment, and application of advanced Location-Based Services (LBS). The focus of this issue is on advanced LBS and the regulatory and technical platforms that are needed to make them possible.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Advanced indoor and outdoor location-based applications: real-time tracking, multimedia, bidirectional, proactive applications Protocols, architectures and middleware in support of LBS New positioning techniques in support of LBS (indoor, cellular, satellite, hybrid) Standards and guidelines LBS based on integrated cellular, ad hoc, RFID, and sensor networks IP-based location services Position and location management Quality of location data Location representation, ontology, management, and distribution Geographic Information Systems for supporting LBS Algorithms and solutions for LBS-related functions (geocoding, reverse geocoding, ...) LBS applications for national security and community services Profiling using location information LBS regulatory, policy, and privacy issues and solutions LBS value chain and stakeholder management
Papers describing current research are solicited. Survey, tutorial, industry experience, and business models and case study papers are also solicited.
Important Dates: Deadline for title and abstract: 1 March 2007 Deadline for submission: 1 June 2007 Notification of acceptance: 1 November 2007 Publication: Spring 2008
Submission Guidelines: Guidelines on how to present your paper are given at http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/525440/authorin structions. Authors are invited to submit full original papers in electronic form (PDF or postscript) to the either of the guest editors given below.
