                         CALL FOR PAPERS
 AwareCast 2015: 4th Workshop on recent advances in behavior prediction 
                and pro-active pervasive computing
        (http://www.comtec.eecs.uni-kassel.de/awarecast/)

In conjunction with 2015 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive
                and Ubiquitous Computing (UbiComp 2015)
             September 07, 2015, in Osaka, Japan

========================================================================

Behavior prediction breaks the border from reaction on past and present 
stimuli to proactive anticipation of actions. Research directions spread
from applications for behavior prediction over event prediction, 
architectures for pro-active pervasive computing, data formats, and 
algorithms. The workshop focuses on three main challenges:

1.  Prediction beyond location

2.  Benchmarks and common data sets

3.  Frameworks for pro-active pervasive computing

While there have been contributions targeting some of these challenges, 
we still see them as unsolved. Thus we invite unique contribution 
addressing these challenges and provide a forum to facilitate 
collaboration among research groups focusing on behavior prediction.

TOPICS OF INTEREST INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO:
 
* Accurate prediction of seldom events 
* Case studies considering behavior prediction 
* Continuous learning for pro-active pervasive computing
* Behavior prediction frameworks
* Novel applications for behavior prediction
* Multi-user and multi-sensor prediction 
* Data sets and benchmarks for pro-active pervasive computing
* Privacy and trust in behavior prediction
* Exploiting characteristic patterns for behavior prediction
