================================================================== Call for Papers

The First International Workshop on Mobile Urban Sensing (MobiUS09) May 18-21, 2009, Taipei, Taiwan http://nrl.iis.sinica.edu.tw/MobiUS09/

To be held in conjunction with the 10th International Conference on Mobile Data Management: Systems, Services and Middleware (MDM 2009)

==================================================================

With wireless networking technologies permeating nearly every aspect of our working and living environments, WSN applications are going mobile, people-centric, pervasive, and ubiquitous. Aggregating mobile and wireless sensors into sophisticated sensing, computational, and communication infrastructures will have a significant impact on a wide array of applications ranging from military, to scientific, industrial, health-care and domestic, establishing ubiquitous computing that will pervade society redefining the way in which we live and work.

The goal of this workshop is to present and discuss recent advances in the development of mobile urban sensing technologies. This is a very challenging task, as it involves several technical issues (e.g., data mining, machine learning, software design, mobility management, performance modeling, resource control, and security), as well as the socio-economic issues (e.g., business model, cyber-physical interaction, human-machine interaction and social networking). The objective of the workshop is to provide a forum to exchange ideas, discuss solutions, and share experiences among researchers, professionals, and application developers both from the industry and academia. Original papers addressing applications and architecture, systems and protocols design, and development and analysis, in all areas related to Mobile Urban Sensing are solicited. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Submissions and Proceedings ------------------------------ Authors are invited to submit an electronic version of original, unpublished manuscripts via the website:

http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mobius09

The manuscript should be written in English and follow IEEE two-column format with single-spaced, ten-point font in the text. The maximum manuscript length is six (6) pages including figures and references. All submitted papers will be refereed by reviewers in terms of correctness, originality, technical strength, significance and quality of presentation. The proceedings will be a single CD-ROM combining the proceedings of the main conference and the workshops, and will be archieved in IEEE Xplore and IEEE Computer Society (CSDL) digital libraries.

Important Dates --------------- Submission deadline: Dec. 8, 2008 Notification of acceptance: Feb. 01, 2009 Camera-ready version: Mar. 15, 2009

General Co-Chairs Mario Gerla, University of California at Los Angeles, USA Ling-Jyh Chen, Academia Sinica, Taiwan
