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

*** Scope and Aim ***
ICMU2025 -- The Fifteenth International Conference on Mobile
Computing and Ubiquitous Networking -- focuses on the active area of
research and development in mobile communications, networks, security,
applications, algorithms, and systems as well as mobile computing and
ubiquitous networking. Nowadays, mobile computing and ubiquitous
networking are empowered by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine
Learning (ML).
The special focus of ICMU includes advancing technologies for
next-generation distributed computing and ubiquitous networking where
humans, networked sensors, connected devices, and environments are
involved. Examples of such technologies are Internet of Things (IoT),
human-centric sensing, energy-efficient mobile systems, social
networking, machine-to-machine communications, mobile cloud computing,
and mobile social Peer-to-Peer (P2P) services. Not only these topics
but also fundamental algorithms and theories for mobile system privacy,
security, reliability, and robustness are also topics of interest.
Authors are invited to submit their research contributions addressing
the topics in mobile and pervasive computing and ubiquitous networking.

The topics include, but are not limited to:
* Artificial Intelligence for Networking and Mobile Computing
* Machine Learning for Networking and Mobile Computing
* Intent-Based Networking (IBN)
* Wireless Access Technologies
* Networked Sensing, and Applications
* Mobile Device Architectures
* Mobile Systems and Applications
* Mobile Data Management and Analytics
* Mobile Multimedia
* Mobile User Interfaces and Interaction Technologies
* Mobile User Experience
* Toolkit, and Languages for Mobile Computing
* Energy-Aware Mobile Computing
* Mobile Cloud Computing
* Semantic Web Technologies
* Localization and Tracking
* Internet of Things
* Crowdsourcing
* Participatory Sensing
* Social Network Applications to Mobile Computing
* Wearable Computing
* Context and Location-Aware Applications and Services
* Body Area Networks
* Trust, Security, and Privacy
* Cloud Computing and Edge Computing

Submissions will be evaluated based on their relevance to the conference topics, originality, technical quality, significance of contributions, and clarity of presentation. Papers are expected to include evaluations that effectively illustrate the authors’ contributions.
