IEEE Mobile Cloud 2018 - Call for Papers

 

The 6th IEEE International Conference on 

Mobile Cloud Computing, Services, and Engineering

http://www.mobile-cloud.net/

Bamberg, Germany March 26 - March 29, 2018

 

**deadline for paper submission: November 15, 2017 **

 

The integration of mobile computing and cloud services and engineering
enables 

new applications that provide resouces and services on an intelligent basis,


process big data collected from mobile sensors, and support Internet of
things 

(IoT) with massive cloud-based backend. Such applications will have
tremendous 

impacts on almost every aspect of our daily life, including transportation, 

e-commerce, healthcare, safety and location privacy, smart home and smart
city, 

social interaction, and many more.

 

This conference will provide a great platform to allow researchers in
academia 

and industry to share their latest research ideas and results, development 

activities, and the emerging industry technologies on mobile cloud
computing, 

services, and engineering. The conference solicits original technical
papers, 

not previously published and not currently under review for publication
elsewhere. 

Papers will be judged on originality, significance, clarity, relevance, and 

correctness. Extended versions of the best papers will be invited for
fast-track 

publication in a planned Special Issue on Mobile Cloud Computing of the IEEE


Cloud Computing Magazine.

* PAPER PUBLICATION

All accepted papers will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press
(EI-Index)

and included in IEEE Digital Library. For publication, each accepted paper
is

required to be registered at full rate by one of its authors, and at least
one 

author is required to attend and present the paper at the conference for the


paper to be included in the final technical program and the IEEE Digital
Library. 

The length of camera-ready papers will be limited to 8 pages with no
surcharge. 

Up to 2 additional pages may be purchased with extra page fee upon the
approval 

of the Program Chairs.

 

 

* WORKSHOP/TUTORIAL PROPOSALS SUBMISSION

IEEE Mobile Cloud 2018 will host multiple one-day or half-day workshops in 

conjunction with the main conference; topics of interest include any major 

research area associated with mobile cloud middleware and applications, as 

well as relevant large-scale experiences (from academic/industry projects) 

in the field. The proposed workshops should focus on fostering discussion 

among participants as well as community building. A workshop proposal should


contain at least the following information:

 

* Name and possible acronym of the workshop

* Motivation and rationale for the workshop

* Draft call-for-papers, including introduction and topics of the workshop

* A list of program committee (PC) members

 

IEEE Mobile Cloud 2017 seeks half-day tutorial proposals, which should
provide

clear and focused teaching material covering new and emerging topics related
to

the main conference. A tutorial proposal should describe concisely the
content,

importance, and timeliness of the tutorial, as well as the targeted
potential

audience.

 

Workshop and tutorial proposals must be submitted via email to the Program 

Chairs.
