This conference is aimed at providing researchers and practitioners in this hot research area a forum for discussion and collaboration. Authors are invited to submit papers addressing, but not limited to, the following topics:

  • Network management for ubiquitous networking
  • Data management for mobile computing
  • Mobile device management
  • Performance evaluation for mobile computing and ubiquitous networking systems
  • Broadcast communications
  • Network architectures, protocols, or service models for ubiquitous networking
  • Security in mobile computing and ubiquitous networking
  • Mobile OS
  • Wireless and mobile communications
  • 4G wireless communications
  • Mobile Internetworking
  • Ad-hoc networks
  • Network mobility
  • Mesh networks
  • Sensor networks
  • Location-based services
