The relentless development of wireless technology paves the way to novel applications, based on sensor networks or wireless systems. This workshop aims at bringing together specialists of application areas along with researchers of mobile computing and networking. A first goal of the workshop is to exchange information about the most promising upcoming applications. A second goal is to identify the research challenges raised by these applications.

The topics covered by the workshop include, but are not limited to:

- Environmental monitoring, including pollution, wildlife, water, etc. - Smart factories, supply chains, retail systems (including those based on RFID) - Intelligent Transportation Systems, automotive applications - Aerospace applications - Mobile systems for disabled or elderly people - Smart buildings, smart homes

The ideal submission should describe an existing or a potential application; it should also discuss the technical challenges raised by this application, with an emphasis on those related to mobile computing and networking. Please feel free to contact the workshop co-chairs Jean-Pierre.Hubaux@epfl.ch and Mani Srivastava ( mbs@ee.ucla.edu ) to determine appropriateness.

A submission should contain at most 3 pages and be typed in at least font 10, with reasonable margins; both US letter and A4 formats are eligible; the document must be a pdf or a ps. There will be no published proceedings. The accepted contributions will be presented during the workshop in a talk of 25 minutes each + 5 minutes for questions; the final version of the abstract will be posted on the Web site of the workshop.
