Workshop on Personalization in Mobile and Pervasive Computing
The workshop will be collocated with the UMAP’09, http://
umap09.fbk.eu/, June 22-26, 2009,Trento, Italy.
Objective
The objective of the workshop is to bring active researchers and
practitioners together and to facilitate discussions on current
research results and issues and emerging research topics in supporting
personalization in mobile and pervasive computing. The workshop aims
to answer the following focused questions by stimulating and involving
as many active researchers in this field as possible:
- What are the unique issues, difficulties, and potential
solutions for personalization in mobile and pervasive computing?
- What are the roles of domain knowledge and ontology for the
personalization and efficient and effective ways of employing them?
- Assuming our surroundings will be filled with smart
objects, how does a system address the added complexity of
personalization and what are the possible solutions?
Topics of Interest
Personalization for mobile and pervasive computing faces many
challenges in areas of user modeling, adaptation and prediction. The
topics of interest include but not limited to the following topics:
- Mobile and pervasive intelligent personal assistants
- User preference mining in a mobile and pervasive context
- User intention prediction
- Situation-awareness
- Domain knowledge and ontology for mobile user modeling and
personalization
- Personalized mobile learning
- Adaptivity through indoor/outdoor location awareness
- Data acquisition and process
- Personalized division of computation between the phone and
cloud
- Personalized power preservation
- Mobile and pervasive group personalization
- User studies and experiences
- Social issues such as privacy
