Scope of the MUCS Workshop ++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Ubiquitous Communications and Services, as evidenced in pervasive computing and smart space applications, present significant management challenges for successful delivery of highly adaptive services across heterogeneous networks, mobile networks, ad-hoc networks, middleware, applications and devices. Such challenges include: managing user centric services and context services, extreme distribution and scalability, extensive system & network & semantic heterogeneity, ad hoc formation and disassociation of systems and services, intelligent support for user centric applications. Today’s management systems need to keep pace with the complexity, heterogeneity and automation required by the pervasive computing vision.

Since 2003, the MUCS workshop (both independently and aligned with major conferences) has provided a very successful forum for researchers and practitioners to explore the theoretic, technological and organizational challenges, and to present advances in management techniques and technologies, for pervasive computing and smart space applications.

The workshop provides a single-track scientific programme containing a blend of keynote presentations from leaders in research in this area, peer-reviewed papers and a small selection of invited presentations. The goal of the workshop is to investigate the state of the art in managing pervasive/smart space applications from a broad perspective.

Topics ++++++ - Context Aware Management and Configuration - Knowledge Representation Techniques and Ontologies for Management of Pervasive Services - Security, Privacy, and Trust Management in Pervasive Computing/Smart Spaces - Context Identification, Retrieval, Prediction and Management - Adaptive technologies and techniques for Services and Management - Service and Network Management for Optimised Personalisation - Management and Control of Mobile Ad-hoc and Wireless Sensor Networks - Distributed Management & Collaborative Governance - Provisioning and Maintenance of Quality of Service in ubiquitous computing environments - User Interaction with Management of UbiComp and Pervasive Systems - Managing Collaborative Pervasive Computing and smart space applications - Policy Based Management - Autonomic Management of Services and Communications - Content Oriented Network & Service Management - Management of Smart Spaces and Applications

Paper Submission ++++++++++++++++ Paper submissions must present original, unpublished research or experiences. Late-breaking advances and work-in-progress reports from ongoing research are also encouraged to be submitted to MUCS 2010.

Authors are requested to submit papers limited to 6 pages in IEEE 8.5x11 conference format, and formatted in accordance with the IEEE Computer Society author guidelines. The link for the templates can be found at: http://www.computer.org/portal/site/cscps/menuitem.02df7cde46985ea21618fc2e6...

Submission link: https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=8157

No-shows of accepted papers at the workshop will result in those papers NOT being included in the IEEE Digital Library.

Proceedings +++++++++++ - Electronic proceedings will be included and indexed in the IEEE digital libraries (Xplore). - Hardcopy proceedings will be published through the Multicon Lecture Notes series with ISBN.
