Call for Research Papers (CFP flyer)
Rapid advances in mobile computing and wireless communication technologies along with the proliferation of next generation of devices such as smart phones, portable tablets, and wearable devices provide a technical infrastructure that enables a broad range of wireless services and applications. These include seamless access to mobile computing infrastructure and interaction, sharing and management of data among potable devices in mobile ad hoc and other wireless networks. Continued miniaturization of computing devices along with improvements in wireless network performance enable new mobile services and applications such as location-based services, ubiquitous computing applications, secure mobile data sharing and processing in sensing networks, environmental monitoring and transportation, etc. Although substantial research has been conducted, several areas in mobile data management remain ripe with open research challenges.

The aim of this conference is to focus on research contributions related to data management in mobile, ubiquitous, and pervasive computing.

This year’s theme is the Internet of Things (IoT) and Mobile Cloud Computing.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

Adaptability and stability of pervasive computing systems
Context-aware computing and location-based services
Mobile Social Networking
Data management in sensor and mobile ad hoc networks
Data management in mobile peer-to-peer networks and incentives
Data mining for mobile applications
Data presentation, scripting and exchange languages
Data replication, migration and dissemination in mobile environments
Data stream processing in mobile/sensor networks
Indexing and query processing for moving objects
Location and mobility semantics
