2016 IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communication Workshops (PerCom Workshops)

Research contributions are solicited in all areas pertinent to pervasive computing and communications, including:

• Advances in systems and infrastructures: middleware systems and services; large-scale data management for pervasive computing; clouds, cloudlets, and fog computing; integrations of smartphones in pervasive experiences; device-to-device coordination and self-organising networks; opportunistic networking and sensing 

• Technological innovations: architectures, protocols, and technologies for pervasive communications; mobile and wearable computing systems and services; smart devices and intelligent environments; positioning and tracking technologies; sensors and RFID; energy-efficient and green pervasive computing

• Domain-specific challenges and novel applications:  urban and mobile crowd sensing and intelligence; pervasive technologies for healthcare; cyber-physical pervasive computing; innovative pervasive computing applications; applications for smart cities

• Models and algorithms: context modeling and reasoning; adaptive, autonomic, and context-aware computing; activity recognition; opportunistic networking; programming paradigms; cognitive computing; user profiling and personalization in pervasive computing

• New techniques for user-level concerns: participatory and social sensing; trust, security, and privacy; user interface, interaction, and persuasion; social networking and pervasive computing
