CALL FOR PAPERS PERVASIVE 2006

The 4th International Conference on Pervasive Computing

Dublin, Ireland May 7--10, 2006

v The PERVASIVE 2006 Chairs and Organising Committee are pleased to announce the call for papers for the 4th International Conference on Pervasive Computing to be held in Dublin Ireland from the 7th to the 10th of May 2006 in the Burlington Hotel.

PERVASIVE is an international conference held annually which aims to present significant research contributions in the area of pervasive computing technologies, systems and applications. The last three conferences in this series were held in Munich (May 2005), Linz/Vienna (April 2004) and Zurich (August 2002). It provides a forum for researchers, developers, and users throughout the world to present advances in computing technology toward new modes of operation (ubiquitous, continuous, and self-organised) and toward new usage models (ambient, context-aware, and closely integrated into human activities and environments). In addition to a highly selective single-track program for technical papers, PERVASIVE 2006 will include a keynote address, late breaking results, videos, poster presentations, workshops, demonstrations, an outreach public lecture and a doctoral colloquium.

Authors are invited to submit manuscripts of original unpublished research work in all areas. Relevant topics include (but are not limited to) the following:

* Device, communication, and interaction technologies for pervasive computing * Pervasive sensing, perception and inference for context technologies * Software infrastructure, middleware and frameworks for pervasive computing systems and environments * Analysis, design, implementation and evaluation of pervasive systems and applications * Deployment and management of pervasive systems and services and emerging industrial scenarios * Pervasive computing interaction models, user interfaces and user experience * Privacy, security and trust in pervasive computing.

Important Dates: September 30, 2005 : Paper Submission Deadline December 16, 2005 : Notification of Acceptance/Rejection February 10, 2006 : Camera-Ready Paper Deadline May 7, 2006 : Workshops May 8 - 9, 2006 : Main Conference May 10, 2006 : Doctoral Colloquium
