Calls for Papers: International Journal of Handheld Computing Research (IJHCR)
The Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Handheld Computing Research (IJHCR) would like to invite you to consider submitting a manuscript for inclusion in this scholarly journal. The following describes the mission, coverage, and guidelines for submission to IJHCR. Mission Mobile handheld devices such as smartphones and PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants) are extremely popular these days. People carry handheld devices anytime, anywhere and use them to perform daily activities like making phone calls, checking emails and schedules, and browsing the mobile Web. According to several market research reports, the sales of mobile phones, smart phones, and PCs (including desktops, servers, and laptops) were 291.6, 32.2, and 69.5 million units in Q1 2008, respectively. The unit sales of PCs were slightly more than twice of smart phones and it is expected that the gap will shrink quickly. Though handheld devices prevail, the technologies used by them are mostly unknown to users because they involve various complicated, fast-evolving disciplines such as wireless and mobile networks and mobile operating systems. The International Journal of Handheld Computing Research (IJHCR) seeks to explore the recent advances related to handheld computing by bringing together researchers and practitioners who work on the tools, methodologies, technologies, designs, software, standards, and applications in this area. Coverage A comprehensive study of the handheld computing is given in this journal, which includes three themes: (i) mobile handheld devices, (ii) handheld computing and programming, and (iii) mobile commerce and applications using handheld devices. The editor encourages the submissions of quality papers dealing with (but not limited to) the following topics: Android systems, computing, applications, and programming BREW systems, computing, applications, and programming Browsing the mobile Web Client-side mobile-commerce computing, applications, and programming Context/location-based services, computing, and applications Embedded systems, computing, and applications Energy saving Handheld components such as microbrowsers, cameras, scanners, data synchronization like infrared and Bluetooth wireless communication, and batteries Handheld devices, architecture, and systems Handheld hardware and software integration Handheld input and output methods and components and peripherals Handheld specifications, standards, guidelines, software, and tools iPhone systems, computing, applications, and programming Java ME systems, computing, applications, and programming Mobile advertising and sales Mobile and wireless networks Mobile commerce applications and systems Mobile commerce, business, and banking Mobile instructions and classrooms Mobile inventory management and resource planning Mobile messaging, emailing, broadcasting, and blogging Mobile offices, management, and services Mobile semantic and intelligent Web Mobile social networks and virtual communities Mobile traffic, travel, and weather reports Mobile Web 2.0 and plus Mobile Web and data mining Mobile Web and Internet Mobile/handheld algorithms and methodologies Mobile/handheld data management Mobile/handheld entertainment and gaming Mobile/handheld human computer interface and user interface design and implementation Mobile/handheld operating systems and platforms Mobile/handheld security and payment methods Mobile/handheld/embedded database systems Palm OS systems, computing, applications, and programming Remote intranet access Server-side mobile-commerce computing, applications, and programming Symbian systems, computing, applications, and programming Windows Mobile systems, computing, applications, and programming Submission Prospective authors should note that only original and previously unpublished articles will be considered. Interested authors must consult the journal’s guidelines for manuscript submissions at http://www.igi-global.com/publish/contributor-resources/ prior to submission. All article submissions will be forwarded to at least 3 members of the Editorial Review Board of the journal for double-blind, peer review. Final decision regarding acceptance/revision/rejection will be based on the reviews received from the reviewers. All submissions must be forwarded electronically.
