NEW EXPANDED FOCUS including whole system design, cloud computing,
and pervasive computing platforms. Position papers welcome! --------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS PerWare 2011 Workshop on Middleware and System Support for Pervasive Computing (at PerCom 2011) Seattle, Washington, U.S.A. March 21, 2011 http://perware.uni-mannheim.de --------------------------------------------------------------------- Designing systems to support pervasive computing poses many challenges due to new requirements for system creation, deployment, configuration, scaling, and maintenance. The goal of PerWare is to explore these challenges through practical and buildable solutions. PerWare solicits position papers that focus on system building in pervasive computing, including, but not limited to, the following topics: * Platforms for pervasive computing * Operating system and distributed systems support for pervasive computing * Software engineering techniques for pervasive computing * Adaptable, recoverable, and fault tolerant pervasive computing systems * Resource and energy efficient pervasive systems * Security and privacy of pervasive computing * Management, configuration, and deployment of pervasive systems We also welcome papers on novel applications or environments that have a strong systems component, especially if those novel applications and environments challenge existing ideas and design techniques. Systems presented at PerWare need not be fully built or evaluated; they need only provoke discussion. The goal of this workshop is to foster the research community working on pervasive systems. Since its first installment in 2004, PerWare has successfully gathered the principal practitioners and their experiences under one roof to discuss their findings and move the state of the art forward. We look forward to continue this tradition in PerWare 2011. Submission Guidelines ---------------------- Submissions of papers are solicited in the IEEE 8.5x11 conference format and must not exceed six pages. Research papers must be original, unpublished work and not under review elsewhere. All submissions will be peer-reviewed and selected based on their originality, merit, and relevance to the workshop. Paper submissions will be handled online at http://perware.uni-mannheim.de/ . Accepted papers must be presented at the workshop, and will appear in the IEEE PerCom workshop proceedings and the IEEE Digital Library. At least one author must have a full registration for PerCom (there is no workshop-only registration) and present the paper. Failure to do so will result in the paper *not* being included in the IEEE Digital Library. Please visit http://perware.uni-mannheim.de if you have any questions. Important Dates ---------------- Paper Registration: ........ October 31, 2010 (extended, was October 24, 2010) Paper Submission: ..........
