SCOPE

The strong growth in mobile devices, networked embedded systems and wireless sensors provides a flexible and cheap infrastructure for collecting and monitoring real-world data nearly everywhere. This is complemented by the ever increasing information and computing power offered by computing clusters and information services over stationary networks The integration of network computing and mobile systems presents new challenges especially with respect to the dependability of integrated applications: accepted measures of availability, costs, and quality of service for high-bandwidth, high-quality stationary systems have to be re-thought facing possibly new dependability paradigms for cheap, resource restricted, unreliable mobile systems with low-bandwidth communication facilities, being embedded and subject to the conditions in the physical world.

TOPICS

This workshop solicits papers addressing dependability issues related to the design, analysis, and implementation, of infrastructures, systems, architectures, algorithms and protocols that deal with network computing and mobile/ ubiquitous systems.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Wireless communication protocols and mobile networks
  • Sensor networks
  • Architectures and middleware for mobile device integration
  • Location-based computing and data analysis
  • Intelligent sensors in networked environments
  • Cluster computing, ubiquitous computing, and grid computing for mobile applications
  • Distributed data mining for mobile applications
  • Ubiquitous knowledge discovery
  • Applications such as cooperative mobile robots, embedded applications, …
  • Hardware security methods for mobile applications
  • Security methods for network computing and mobile systems
  • Intelligent mobile systems
