Both the requirements and expectations from various perspectives (i.e., networking, middleware and application level) were presented and analyzed. NGNM05 held on May 2005, in conjunction with Networking 2005 conference in Waterloo, Canada, focused on the identification of composite business services running on an Internet middleware platform that allows enterprises/networking actors to publish the services they provide, use services available globally in a secure manner and automatically compile the various services descriptions into executable processes. The special issue on Emerging Middleware for Next Generation Networks of Computer Communications journal complemented the success of NGNM04 and NGNM05. NGNM06 targets to address the challenges of middleware platforms required for new generation mobile/wireless heterogeneous radio networks and services. Mobile/Wireless middleware is anticipated to increase the performance of applications running across potentially mixed wireless networks, to support multiple mobile/wireless devices, to provide continuous wireless access to content and services, to ensure end-to-end QoS and secure content and services delivery and to offer cross-system and cross-layer optimization taking into account issues related to usage behavior, mobility patterns, traffic profiling, network selection and relevant horizontal/vertical handovers. Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished works as well as works on progress in the following, but not limited to, topic areas: * Middleware support for micro/macro/multi-domain mobility * Emerging Information Models and Frameworks (i.e., MPEG-21) * Specification and enforcement of QoS * Interworking between Heterogeneous Middleware Technologies * Self-managing networks (self-healing, self-optimizing, self-protecting and self-configuring) * Programmable, Active and Adaptive Networks * Wireless Grids Middleware * Grid-enabled Networking Middleware * Performance evaluation and modeling in Wireless/Mobile Middleware * Middleware support for cross-system and cross-layer optimization * Middleware security, including authentication and authorization Submissions The workshop welcomes original and review papers from academic and industry contributors dealing with the above or related issues. All submissions will be subjected to review by two reviewers. Papers should be up to 6000 words in English, including bibliography and well-marked appendices. To submit a paper, send an email to Prof. George Kormentzas (gkorm(a)aegean.gr), containing the title, the authors' names, e-mail and post addresses, phone and fax numbers, identification of the contact author, and attach to the same message your paper in DOC format. The paper must start with a title, a short abstract, and a list of keywords. All the accepted papers will be published in the workshops proceedings. Furthermore, as it happened with NGNM04 and NGNM05, some selected papers will be extended in order to be considered for publication in a forthcoming special issue of a journal related to the workshops goals.

======================================================================================================== MOBIQUITOUS 2006 http://www.mobiquitous.org Sponsored by Create-Net and ICST The Third Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Service July 17 - 21, 2006 San Jose, California, USA In Cooperation with ACM SIGMOBILE Pending Sponsorship: IEEE Computer Society ======================================================================================================== The combination of mobile and ubiquitous computing is emerging as a promising new paradigm with the goal to provide computing and communication services all the time, everywhere, transparently and invisibly to the user, using devices embedded in the surrounding physical environment. In this context, the communication devices, the objects with which they interact, or both may be mobile. The implementation of such a paradigm requires advances in wireless network technologies and devices, development of infrastructures supporting cognitive environments, and discovery and identification of ubiquitous computing applications and services. The Third Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: networking and services (Mobiquitous-06) will cover all these aspects, providing a forum where practitioners and researchers coming from the many areas involved in ubiquitous solutions design and deployment will be able to interact exchanging the cross-layer experiences needed to build the overall ubiquitous systems. Areas addressed by the conference include applications, service-oriented computing, middleware, networking, agents, data management and services, all with special focus on mobility and ubiquitous computing. PAPERS: Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by another conference or journal, are solicited. The conference is interested in contributions addressing all the areas associated with mobile and ubiquitous architectures, infrastructure, data and services. Technical papers clearly identifying how the specific contributions fit to an overall working solution are particularly of interest. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following feature topics: * Ubiquitous architectures and systems * Wearable computing and personal area networks * Wireless technologies for mobile and ubiquitous (Bluetooth, ZigBee, 802.15.x, WiFi) * Wireless Internet access in ubiquitous systems * Reconfigurability and personalization of wireless networks * Service discovery mechanisms, knowledge discovery, matching and composition mechanisms * Wireless/mobile service management and delivery * Security, privacy and social issues of mobile and ubiquitous systems * Peer-to-peer computing and networking * Emerging industrial/business/scientific scenarios * Multimodal interfaces (speech, video kinetic, tactile) * Smart spaces * Ad hoc and sensor networks * Location-based services and tracking * Context and location aware application * Multimedia encoding and transcoding * Middleware services * Agent technologies in ubiquitous, wearable, and mobile systems * Hardware and software platforms for ubiquitous systems, and testbeds * Context modeling, services and frameworks * Toolkits, development environments, and languages for ubiquitous computing * Rapid prototyping of ubiquitous applications * Ontologies for mobile and ubiquitous computing * Mobile and ubiquitous data management SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: All paper submissions will be handled electronically (see the conference web page for details). Authors should prepare an Adobe Acrobat PDF version of their full paper. Papers must not exceed 8 pages double column (US Letter size, 8.5 x 11 inches) including text, figures and references. The font size must be at least 10 points. The deadline for submitting the actual paper is March 6, 2006. All deadlines are 11:59PM PST. PUBLICATION: All submitted papers will be rigorously reviewed by the international technical program committee. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. Papers of particular merit will be proposed for publication in the ACM/Kluwer Mobile Networks and Applications (MONET) journal. WORKSHOPS: Four workshops will be run in conjunction with the conference. Please see the web site for more information. DEMOS: Proposals for research and industrial demos are solicited. A maximum of 3 pages should be submitted which include a description of the demo and needed equipment. Proposals should be submitted to the Demo Chair by May 1, 2006.
