Call for Papers
-----------------
The fields of both embedded computing and ubiquitous systems have seen considerable growth over the past few years. Given the advances in these fields, and also those in the areas of distributed computing, sensor networks, middleware, etc., the area of ubiquitous embedded computing is now being envisioned as the way of the future.
The systems and technologies that will arise in support of ubiquitous embedded computing
will undoubtedly need to arise a variety of issues, including dependability, real-time,
human-computer interaction, autonomy, resource constraints, etc. All of these requirements pose a challenge to the research community.

SEUS 2014 will be a forum where researchers and practitioners with substantial experiences and interests in advancing the state-of-the-art and the state-of-practice
in the field of embedded and ubiquitous computing systems gather with the goal of fostering new ideas, collaborations, and technologies.

We invite contributions that present advances in integrating the fields of embedded computing and ubiquitous systems. Industrial applications in the field are also encouraged. Papers can be of conceptual, theoretical, application-oriented, standards-driving, innovative design or experimental nature, and should represent technological or
scientific advances.

The main goal is to bring together researchers from all over the world, to foster a stimulating and fruitful exchange amongst people working on similar topics, to discuss ideas, exchange field experiences and to find solutions together to the problems facing software and hardware technologies for embedded and ubiquitous systems.

-----------------
Topics
-----------------
Suggested topics of interest include (but are not restricted to) the following:
- Applications, Components, Services
- Programming Languages, Models and Tools
- Model Based Engineering, Model Driven Engineering
- Requirement Specification and Methodologies
- Middleware and Operating Systems
- Software Architectures and Software Engineering
- Communication Networks
- Wireless Sensor Networks and Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
- Smart Phones, Smart TVs, and Smart Devices
- Wearable Computing, Next Generation Computing
- Cloud Computing
- Social Computing
- Computer Architecture
- Embedded Systems
- Programming Paradigm for Multicores and Manycores

------------------
Paper Submission
------------------
Accepted papers will be published in IEEE proceedings. Papers must be written in English, submitted in PDF format with 8 pages in limit (including all text, figures,
references and appendices), and adhering to the IEEE paper format. Submission implies the willingness of the senior author to present his/her paper at the Workshop.
