==================================================================== The 1st International Workshop on Mobile Peer-to-Peer Information Services (MP2PIS)

In conjunction with the 10th International Conference on Mobile Data Mangement (MDM'09) Taipei, Taiwan, May 18-21, 2009

***** CALL FOR PAPERS *****

Theme of the Workshop =====================

Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks undoubtedly receive wide attention because of their broad applications such as file sharing and media streaming services. Substantial research efforts have contributed to the success of P2P paradigms in the wired network environments. As broadband wireless connections (e.g., WLAN, WiMAX, 3G, 3.5G, and emerging 4G) become affordable and popular, mobile users now have increasing interests to participate in P2P services anywhere, anytime through their handheld devices.

The special characteristics of wireless mobile environment such as highly variable connectivity, energy and resource sensitivity, and communication asymmetry render new challenges, problems and issues for research in mobile P2P computing. The techniques developed for the wired P2P networks may not be applied directly in such environments. New derivatives or modification to present P2P data dissemination and management strategies are required. As a result, research works should propose promising solutions that enable efficient and reliable mobile P2P information services in the province of mobile P2P computing.

Workshop Goals ==============

Mobile P2P is a cross cutting area as it crosses communications, networking, information dissemination, databases, and security. The main goal of the workshop is to gather scientists from these areas together to foster the collaboration among such interdisciplinary areas and sparkle discussion on open topics related to mobile P2P.

Workshop Scope ==============

The scope of this workshop includes but is not limited to the following topics:

- Peer-to-peer overlays for wireless and mobile networks - Hybrid P2P service architectures for integrated fixed and mobile wide-area networks - Large-scale mobile P2P systems - MP2P Data management (Schedule/Cache/Replica/Index/Query) - Impact of network mobility on P2P information services - P2P-based Information sensing and fusion - Data broadcast, dissemination in MP2P - Publish/Subscribe in MP2P - File Sharing in MP2P - Media Streaming in MP2P - Resource and service discovery in MP2P - Peer access and control in mobile environment - MP2P messaging systems, monitoring systems, searching systems, etc. - Location dependent MP2P services - Novel MP2P applications & services

Paper Submissions =================

All submissions must be original unpublished work written in English that is currently not under review at another venue. Papers submitted must be no longer than 8 pages in IEEE conference style format.
