CfP: HICSS-37 Minitrack on Mobile Distributed Information Systems [Our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CfP] ===================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS HICSS-37 Minitrack on MOBILE DISTRIBUTED INFORMATION SYSTEMS Part of the Software Technology Track at the Thirty-seventh Annual HAWAI'I INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SYSTEM SCIENCES on the Big Island of Hawaii January 5 - 8, 2004 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstracts due: March 31, 2003 Full Papers due: June 1, 2003 Website: http://www.ipsi.fraunhofer.de/mobile/hicss ===================================================================== In today's mobile society, access to relevant information and to context- specific services "anytime, anywhere" is becoming increasingly important. Mobile users are often particularly interested in information about and services in their immediate vicinity, thus Mobile Distributed Information Systems must address location-dependent distribution of and access to services and information from mobile devices. In addition to location, other environmental aspects, such as the user's current situation, topology and available bandwidth of wireless networks, battery power and characteristics of mobile devices, are also relevant for determining information and service requirements. For mobile applications, a dynamic re-configurable architecture is thus required to support flexible reaction to changing contexts and seamless operation in foreign environments, with little or no need for manual reconfiguration. With mobile devices becoming more and more popular and powerful, communication and cooperation between mobile users in an ad-hoc manner are strongly desired. Consequently, the long-established distinction between clients and servers is blurred, which calls for an extension of the architectural paradigm towards peers or alternating roles. This Minitrack will address current topics in the field of Mobile Distributed Information Systems, such as: - Location and Situation Aware Information Services: Modeling, Architectures and Applications - Network Support for Mobile Access to Services and Information - Mobile Ad-hoc Networking and Computing - Provision, Distribution and Management of Services for Mobile Environments - Directory Services, Service Discovery and Service Brokers - Middleware for Mobile Distributed Information Systems - Distributed Databases and Data Management for Mobile Applications - Peer-to-Peer Computing and Cooperation: Scenarios, Platforms and Applications - Self-/Zero-/Auto-Configuration, Dynamic Configuration for Mobile Users - Mobile Multimedia Systems, QoS for Mobile Information Access - Management of Groups of Mobile Users - Mobile Devices: GUIs, Usability and Adaptability - Location Tracking Technologies - Security, Privacy and Billing Issues for Mobile Information and Service Access - Applications and Case Studies of Mobile Distributed Information Systems MINITRACK CHAIRS Andreas Meissner Zhou Wang Lars Wolf Fraunhofer IPSI Fraunhofer IPSI TU Braunschweig Dolivostrasse 15 Dolivostrasse 15 Mühlenpfordtstraße 23 64293 Darmstadt 64293 Darmstadt 38106 Braunschweig Germany Germany Germany {Andreas.Meissner, Zhou.Wang}(a)ipsi.fhg.de wolf(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de The Minitrack Website is http://www.ipsi.fraunhofer.de/mobile/hicss Please email general inquiries to hicss(a)ipsi.fraunhofer.de MINITRACK PROGRAM COMMITTEE Heribert Baldus, Philips Research, Germany Andrew T.

FW: [IFIP] Good Vibs (contd). & Friday's special

von Augusto Casaca

-----Original Message----- From: owner-ifip_ga(a)ifip.or.at [mailto:owner-ifip_ga@ifip.or.at]On Behalf Of Plamen Nedkov Sent: sexta-feira, 21 de Fevereiro de 2003 13:47 To: All Subject: [IFIP] Good Vibs (contd). & Friday's special Dear All, There are good vibrations coming from our member societies: We are closely working with all recently admitted IFIP members to assist their integration. All 4 admitted full member societies at GA 2001 (Chile, Lithuania, Oman and Zimbabwe) have settled their initial membership obligations and are geared up to IFIP activities. This is also true for CITS-Croatia (admitted at GA 2002) which will host an IT-STAR meeting in early June. The Cyprus Computer Society was also admitted at GA 2002 and is busily selecting its TC representatives. CLEI, our regional Latin American corresponding member, continues to look into the feasibility of becoming a Full member. Argentina has undergone a major review of its TC representation and will soon try to overcome its back dues. Over this week we maintained everyday contact with Cecilia Berdichevsky, SADIO's GA representative, and with members of SADIO's Governing Board on the occasion of Armando's passing. Our grief has further united us in considering activities within the IFIP format. In January and February many outstanding membership issues were sorted out: Greece made a great effort and is "up to date" NOW! So did Syria! Some weeks ago a Board member of the Syrian Computer Society (and Deputy Minister for Communications) called to discuss activities and outstanding dues. All matters were immediately taken care of. We currently maintain contact with Malaysia about their status in IFIP. Some days ago, the South Korea rep. wrote to say that KISS has settled its obligations. When the KISS transfer arrives, IFIP will have 42 national member societies with voting rights!!! At present we have 48 full members on our books. By GA 2003 in Lithuania the "42 votes" could easily become "45". Additionally, there are 3 corresponding members and 10 Affiliates. Finally, we understand that Bruce Shriver is the recipient of the IEEE CS 2002 Richard E.
