                    Call for Papers
              Symposium on Mobile Computing
  http://www.csee.umbc.edu/~younis/WC_MobCom05.htm
                       as part of 
                IEEE WirelessCom 2005
Sheraton Maui Resort, Kaanapali Beach, Maui, Hawaii, USA

                   June 13-16, 2005
  Technical Sponsorship: IEEE TCCC, TCPC, and SSCTC


Recent years have witnessed an enormous growth in the development and
applications of mobile computing environments and devices. Many
practitioners envision a future empowered with context and location aware
computation and communication infrastructure that allow users to access data
and receive service at any place and any time. Compared to conventional
platforms, the mobility of computing nodes introduces many challenges to the
design of almost all systems components. 

This symposium will foster a forum for discussing and presenting recent
research results on mobile computer systems. Original papers are invited in
the broader area of mobile computing. Papers must report high-quality and
previously unpublished work. Topics of interest include, but are not limited
to, the following:

* Architecture and infrastructure support	
* Middleware and operating systems services
* Development platforms and environments
* Adaptive resource management schemes
* Pervasive and Context-aware Computing
* Performance metrics and studies
* Power aware computation and communication
* Data consistency and synchronization protocols
* Fault-tolerant architectural and operation models
* Wearable computing devices and systems
* Time constrained mobile systems
* Robust ad-hoc networking techniques
* Efficient localization techniques
* Wireless sensor networks
* Mobile peer to peer systems
* Quality of service provisioning
* Context-conscious computing
* Web caching and services
* Emerging applications and systems
* Mobile agents
* Mobile commerce
* Security and privacy issues


Submission Guidelines
---------------------
Original papers are solicited and must represent high-quality and previously
unpublished work, not currently under review by another conference or
journal. Prospective authors should submit their paper electronically
through https://msrcmt.research.microsoft.com/WirelessCom2005. All papers
are limited to 6 pages in standard IEEE double-column format.
