Dear colleague, Please let us remind you of the approaching submission deadline for IMC'98. We cordially invite you to submitt a paper to this workshop. Please feel free to distribute ths CfP to interested colleagues and post it as appropriate. Also, please accept our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CfP. Thank you very much. With best regards, Bodo Urban Thomas Kirste IMC'98 Conference Chair IMC'98 Program Chair ====================================================================== Preliminary Call for Papers IMC-98 INTERACTIVE APPLICATIONS OF MOBILE COMPUTING Rostock, Germany -- November 24-25, 1998 http://www.egd.igd.fhg.de/~imc98 Submission Deadline: July 31, 1998 ====================================================================== Aims and Scope The availability of ultra-portable mobile computing hardware allows to support the user in virtually all situations of everyday life. Instead of being tied to the desktop, computer assistance is becoming available in any situation, anytime, and anywhere. Environment-sensitive mobile computing devices guide visitors through exhibitions, assist maintenance personnel in repairing complex machinery, and help people by scheduling and keeping track of their personal daily tasks. The use of computing and communications devices becomes an integral part of modern lifestyle, augmenting physical reality with computer-generated information. Providing an optimal support for the user based on mobile computing hardware poses new challenges for developers of interactive graphics an multimedia information systems. New approaches are required for providing database- and middleware-support for mobile multimedia, adequate sensorics and environment monitoring facilities, as well as the cognitive minimal intrusive integration of computer- generated assistive information. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers, developers and practitioners in all these areas of interactive mobile information system. The workshop will provide a forum for the discussion of the individual problem areas from an interdisciplinary viewpoint, supporting cross- fertilization and problem awareness between the different research areas of interactive mobile applications. Thematic focus Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Database support for mobile, interactive graphics and multimedia applications; transaction, security and replication concepts. - Imaging, visualization and presentation in distributed and mobile environments; integrated use of alternative presentation media. - Adaptive architectures for heterogeneous, dynamic, and resource-limited system infrastructures. - Data and object models for mobile information systems. - Environment sensing technologies, situation and location dependent computing. - User interface strategies and visualization concepts for heterogeneous mobile devices, ranging from PDA to wearable computers. - Modeling concepts for situation and task-dependent assistive support (workflow approaches, cognitive task models). - Interactive mobile applications: case studies, design concepts, experiences. After the successful IMC'96 being held in Rostock during February 1996, IMC'98 will be the second workshop spanning the gap between Interactive Graphics Applications and system technologies for Mobile Computing. Submissions Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts / position papers (4 pages) on completed research or work in progress to the IMC'98 conference secretariat (see below for address). Electronic submission by Email is preferred. Alternatively, you may use our anonymous ftp server ftp.egd.igd.fhg.de, directory /public/imc98 (please send us a note by Email after upload, specifying name, type, and contents of the file) Important Dates July 31: Extended abstracts due. August 31: Notification of acceptance. November 10: Camera ready papers due. Supporting Organizations ACM GI FG 4.1 GI AK 4.0.4 Program committee B. Andersen, Copenhagen Business School, DK B.R.
