CALL FOR PAPERS
ICUFN 2010
The Second International Conference on Ubiquitous and Future Networks
June 16-18, 2010, Jeju Island, Korea
http://www.icufn.org

- Technical co-sponsorship by IEEE Communication Society
- Special issue of Wireless Personal Communications journal(SCIE-indexed)


GENERAL INFORMATION

During the last decade, we have witnessed fast developments of various networking technologies, and many forms of networking are core parts of our daily lives now. With the proliferation of future wireless technologies and electronic devices, there is a fast growing interest in ubiquitous and future networks. In the days to come, we expect that the ubiquitous communication and networking technologies will become ubiquitous along with the emergence of many future networking technologies. The ubiquitous and future network will offer multiservice, multimedia services convergence, mobility, service ubiquity and context awareness, fixed-mobile convergence, quality of service, variable connectivity, spontaneous networking, autonomic networking and other capabilities as the norm. Building on the success of the First International Conference on Ubiquitous and Future Networks (ICUFN 2009), which took place in Hong Kong, June 2009, the Second International Conference on Ubiquitous and Future Networks (ICUFN 2010) aims at addressing advances in research on ubiquitous and future networks, covering topics ranging from technology issues to applications and test-bed developments. ICUFN 2010 solicits original, unpublished contributions in all aspects of ubiquitous and future networking. Submitted articles must not be concurrently considered elsewhere for publication. The conference is organized by KICS, Korea, with the technical co-sponsorship of IEEE Communications Society(Pending). All accepted papers will be published in the proceedings with assigned IEEE ISBN number and will also be included in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

All submissions must be submitted electronically, in PDF format and uploaded on EDAS. The direct link for paper submission is http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=8365&. There are two options for the submissions, either a full paper or an extended abstract. We decided to allow the submission of extended abstracts in order to accommodate the most recent research outcomes. The submissions should be formatted with single-spaced, double-column pages using at least 10 pt (or higher) size fonts on A4 or letter pages in IEEE style format. The maximum page numbers are 6 for full papers. Authors should submit 2-page two-column manuscript for extended abstracts. The camera-ready version for an accepted paper cannot exceed 6 pages. Detailed formatting and submission instructions will be available on the conference web site (http://www.icufn.org).


PUBLICATION SCHEDULE

All accepted papers will be appeared in IEEEXplore Digital library only if at least one of the authors attends to present the paper. Also, some of selected papers will be invited for the special issue of Wireless Personal Communications journal (SCIE-indexed) after further revision(http://www.springer.com/engineering/signals/journal/11277).


BEST PAPER AWARDS

Some best papers will be selected by technical program committee members among regular papers presented at ICUFN 2010.
