Calls for papers: "Advances in Mobile Computing and Applications"

For a special issue of the International Journal of Ad Hoc and Ubiquitous Computing.

Today, mobile computing has been broadly deployed around the world to support mobile services and applications. However, emerging technologies such as advanced communication systems and networks, energy efficiency, fault tolerance, schedule and load balancing are still open issues for the pervasive adoption of the mobile computing paradigm. In addition, agent-based systems, human-computer interaction, multimedia communications and mobile cloud computing are important research areas able to play a key role in the efficient design and testing of mobile computing applications.

This special issue aims to collect significant contributions addressing innovative ideas, emerging technologies, methods and solutions for mobile computing systems and applications.

The issue will carry revised and substantially extended versions of selected papers presented at the 4thInternational Conference on Applied and Theoretical Information Systems Research (ATISR 2014; 18-21 June, 2014, Taipei, Taiwan). However, we also strongly encourage researchers unable to participate in the conference to submit articles for this special issue.

Suitable topics include, but are not limited, to the following in the context of mobile computing and applications:
  • Artificial intelligence, neural networks and genetic algorithms
  • Computer and information science
  • Advanced communication systems and networks
  • Intelligent agent technology, agent-based systems
  • Internet technologies and applications
