*******Announcement and Call for Papers / Submissions*******

Mobile Multimedia Communications Conference (MoMuC) 2003 The First Interdisciplinary International Conference on Mobile Business and Technology

"Opening Up New Frontiers in Mobile Business and Technology" 6-8 October 2003, Munich, Germany *******refer to www.momuc.org or see pdf-file or below*******

MoMuC 2003 is the eighth in a series of international workshops - Tokyo in 1994, Bristol in 1995, Princeton in 1996, Seoul in 1997, Berlin in 1998, San Diego in 1999 and Tokyo in 2000 - aimed at stimulating knowledge exchanges in the emerging and strategically important field of Mobile Multimedia Communications. 3G, Wireless LAN and systems and technologies "beyond 3G" have been launched or are under development.

For the first time in this series the business viewpoint of mobile technologies will be integrated to complement technological issues. During the last years it has become increasingly obvious that the technological push of new wireless technologies will not result in successful products if the opportunities are not carefully evaluated in particular from the customer point of view.

MoMuC 2003 is organized by the Center for Digital Technology and Management (CDTM) of the Ludwig-Maximilians-University and Technical University of Munich and chaired by Prof. Dr. Jorg Eberspacher and Prof. Dr. Dres. h.c. Arnold Picot.

MoMuc 2003's goal is to bring together researchers, practitioners and potential users involved in and affected by emerging wireless technologies. The workshop targets at experts in multimedia systems and mobility issues on the technological and business side. The impact of the workshop is to provide an effective forum for original and fundamental advances in Mobile Multimedia Systems and business models and to foster communication among researchers and practitioners working in a wide variety of scientific areas with a common interest in mobile multimedia communication. Also we wish to provide a timely forum for exploratory research contributions, and to promote cross-disciplinary interactions in an informal setting.
