April 26 - 28, 2010 in Seattle, U.S.A.

Call for Papers

Mobile computing aims at ubiquitous user access to computer application. To make it possible, networking technology which enables Internet access anytime and everywhere, i.e. ubiquitous networking is necessary. It is obvious that with the accelerating trends towards mobile networks, ad-hoc networks, and wireless networks, mobile computing and ubiquitous networking will play an important role in future network. ICMU2010 is aimed at providing a forum to researchers for discussion and collaboration in this hot research area.

The special focus of ICMU2010 is on "Green Computing" in ubiquitous network systems, such as energy efficiency maximization and carbon dioxide reduction. Authors are invited to submit papers addressing, but not limited to, the following topics:

Network architectures, applications, and service models MAC and routing protocols Resource and mobility managements QoS issues Security issues Performance evaluation Wireless and mobile communications Broadcast communications Soft defined radio

Cognitive radio Heterogeneous networks Cellular networks, WiFi, and WiMax Ad hoc, sensor, and mesh networks Peer-to-peer communications Vehicle communications Internetworking Location-based services Data managements

Some selected papers from the proceedings will be recommended to submit to the IPSJ Journal. The best paper award with prize money will be given to the most reputable paper.

Papers are solicited as full papers of no more than 8 pages, each of which will be subject to a full review process. Submission must follow the submission guide for full papers as specified in the web site. An electronic, PDF-based submission of papers is mandatory.
