Call for Work in Progress Reports

2006 will witness the fourth year of the IEEE PerCom conference on the emerging area of pervasive computing and communications aimed at providing an exciting platform and paradigm for anytime, anywhere services. PerCom 2006 will feature a work in progress session in order to present and discuss emerging results, and novel research questions, approaches, and directions. The specific aim of this session is to provide a forum for early feedback on ongoing research and for discussion of controversial and thought provoking ideas. Selected papers will be presented as posters.

Contributions are solicited in all areas of pervasive computing research and applications. Topics include, but not limited to:

• Pervasive computing and communication architectures
• Intelligent environments
• Service composition and application adaptation
• Smart devices and smart spaces
• Middleware services
• Mobile/Wireless computing systems and services
• Context aware computing
• Autonomic computing and communications
• Programming paradigms for pervasive systems
• User interfaces and interaction models
• End user programming and end user tools
• Wireless/mobile service management and delivery
• Resource management in pervasive computing
• Trust, security and privacy issues

Submission Instructions:

Submissions of original, unpublished work are solicited from all areas of Pervasive Computing. Submissions may not be under review at another conference, workshop, or journal. The length may not exceed four pages in IEEE standard format including references, tables, figures, etc.
