<br>
<font size="3">Generally known as Ubiquitous Computing (UbiCo), its vision is to push computing out of conventional desktop computers into environments characterized by embedded computers and transparent forms of interactivity. Considerable reductions in prices
of devices and network usage are finally making ubiquitous computing a reality. <span class="yshortcuts">
Ubiquitous </span><span class="yshortcuts">computing</span> and networks have received a significant and sustained research interest in terms of designing and deploying novel applications/services.<br>
<br>
The UbiCoNet workshop aims to provide researchers who share similar research interests with a forum to meet and address new research challenges and initiatives that concern Ubiquitous Computing (UbiCo) and Networks (Net).<br>
<br>
The workshop program will focus on new research challenges and initiatives, and will allow authors to present new and emerging trends in ubiquitous computing and networks to dedicated audiences.<br>
<br>
Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:<br>
<br>
* Ubiquitous Computing and Communications<br>
* Peer-to-Peer Computing<br>
* Multimedia Networks and Services<br>
* Human-Computer Interaction<br>
* Wireless Communication & Networks<br>
* <span class="yshortcuts">Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks</span> (MANETs)<br>
* <span class="yshortcuts">Wireless Sensor Networks</span><br>
* Mobile Computing<br>
* Agents and Distributed Computing<br>
* User Centered Design in Ubiquitous Networks<br>
* Context-aware Computing and Service <span class="yshortcuts">Provisioning</span><br>
* Mobile Augmented Reality<br>
* Mobile <span class="yshortcuts">Social Communications</span><br>

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES<br>
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
Authors are invited to submit full papers of up to five double-column,<br>
IEEE conference-style pages. </font></span><span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Courier New'; COLOR: black"><font size="3">One additional page will be allowed with<br>
additional publication fee. All submitted papers will be carefully<br>
evaluated by at least three reviewers based on originality,<br>
significance, technical soundness, and clarity of expression. Accepted<br>
papers will appear in the IEEE GLOBECOM proceedings and will be included<br>
in IEEE digital library.<br>
<br>
At least one of the authors of accepted papers must attend the workshop<br>
to present the paper. An accepted paper must be registered before the<br>
registration deadline. IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from<br>
distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if<br>
the paper is not presented at the workshop. In case of double<br>
submissions or (self-)plagiarism, the paper will be excluded from the<br>
technical program.<br>
