CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS AND WORKSHOPS
Second IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and
Communications
PerCom 2004 (http//www.percom.org)
March 14-17, 2004
Orlando, FLORIDA
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**** Paper Submission Deadline --- September 1, 2003 ****
**** Workshop Proposals Deadline --- June 1, 2003 ****
Sponsored by The IEEE Computer Society and
The University of Texas at Arlington
Cosponsored by the IEEE TCCC and the IEEE TCPP
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IEEE PerCom 2004 will be the second annual conference on the emerging
area
of
pervasive computing and communications aimed at providing an exciting
platform
and paradigm for all the time, everywhere services. This emergence is a
natural
outcome of the tremendous advances in wireless networks, mobile
computing,
sensor networks, distributed computing, and agent technologies. PerCom
2004
will
provide a high profile, leading edge forum for researchers and
engineers
alike
to present their latest research in the field of pervasive
computing
and
communications. As in PerCom 2003, the Mark Weiser Best Paper Award
will
be
given to the best paper judged by the award subcommittee. Also, as in
PerCom
2003, a special issue of a leading journal will be published out of the
selected
papers.
Proposals to organize Workshops are also invited. PerCom 2004 will also
feature
industry exhibits and demonstrations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Feature Topics:
----------------
Contributions are solicited in all areas and topics pertaining to
pervasive
computing research and applications. These include, but are not limited
to,
the
following topics:
* Pervasive computing architectures
* Intelligent environments
* Wearable computers
* Smart devices and smart spaces
* Location-dependent / personalized applications
* Service discovery mechanisms
* Agent technologies

Submission Guidelines:
----------------------------------
Submitted papers must be unpublished and not currently under
consideration
elsewhere for publication. Only electronic submissions (PS or PDF)
will
be
considered. Page limit is 12 pages (single column, 11 pt fonts and

be
available at http://www.percom.org. All submitted papers will undergo a
rigorous
review process managed by the technical program committee. IEEE Computer
Society
Press will publish the conference proceedings. Papers of particular
merit
will
be considered for a special issue of a journal.
For organizing a workshop at PerCom'2004, please contact the Workshop
Chairs.
A
