Dear all,

please allow me to draw your attention to the car-to-car related workshop "Ubiquitous Inter- and Intra-Vehicular Computing". The workshop is jointly organized by Christian Wewetzer, Susumu Matsui, Paul Holleis, and Matthias Kranz,

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Best regards, Matthias Kranz DLR

Call for Papers Ubiquitous Inter- and Intra-Vehicular Computing Workshop at 10th International Conference on Ubiquitous Computing COEX, Seoul, South Korea September 21 - 24, 2008 http://www.hcilab.org/events/uiivc

Workshop Overview: ------------------ Vehicles are an interesting space for ubiquitous computing! - They can be host to mobile devices (e.g. PDAs, PNAs, mobile phones). Interaction with these devices in vehicular environments includes computer-computer interaction (e.g. exchanging data between vehicle and mobile device) and human-computer interaction involving voice, gesture and text input and output with their respective technologies. - Vehicles themselves are mobile networked sensing systems. They have a significant number of intra-vehicle communication systems such as busses connecting hundreds of sensors and delivering information at high data rates, both to other digital systems and to the driver. - The sensor density in modern cars is comparable to ubiquitous computing environments. Interconnecting sensor-equipped vehicles enables novel types of applications. Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication provide vehicles with information about their vicinity, allowing vehicle systems to augment the driver's perception of the environment, thereby increasing road safety, traffic efficiency and comfort.

Workshop Topics: ---------------- - networked sensing systems integrated in vehicles, infra-structure or used by other traffic participants (pedestrians, cyclists, ...) - multi-modal human-machine interaction in vehicular environments; combinations of vehicle-integrated and mobile user interfaces - machine-machine interaction and information fusion for (seamless) integration of mobile devices into vehicular environments - mobile vehicular services and service management - new concepts for driving interfaces, driver assistance systems and driving assistance systems - methods and tools for automotive user interfaces and application research and their evaluation - novel multimedia interfaces and in-car entertainment - input and output technologies and systems while driving (text, speech, touch, ...) - user interfaces for on-the-road information exchange, navigation and inter-vehicle communication - detection, estimation and modeling of user intentions, vehicle context and traffic situation - application frameworks, toolkits or models for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication - applications, services, user interfaces and toolkits for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication

Important Dates: ---------------- Fri, 27 Jun - Submission deadline Fri, 25 Jul - Acceptance notification Sun, 21 Sep - Day of workshop
