There is a discounted rate until August 1, 2005.
UbiComp 2005, the Seventh International Conference on Ubiquitous Computing,
will be held September 11-14, 2005 in Tokyo, Japan. The annual conference provides
the premier forum in which to present research results in all areas relating
to the design, implementation, application and evaluation of ubiquitous computing
technologies, bringing together leading researchers from a variety of disciplines
and geographical areas who are exploring the frontiers of computing as it moves
beyond the desktop and becomes increasingly interwoven into the fabrics of our
lives. Last year, over 400 people attended the UbiComp 2004 conference, representing
4 continents, 24 countries and a wide variety of disciplines and perspectives.
Technical Program.
The program consists of a single track with 22 papers. The authors present
state-of-the-art results on various topics, such as
technologies, methodologies and formalisms to support ubiquitous computing and
the development of ubiquitous computing applications
(e.g. novel devices, system software, software engineering techniques and interaction
methods); reports on experiences of designing,
developing, deploying and living with ubiquitous computing systems; and, studies
of the wider implications of ubiquitous computing. The
conference program can be found at http://www.ubicomp.org/ubicomp2005/program.shtml.
Posters and Demonstrations.
The program also includes a number of posters and technical demonstrations
of experimental systems. The posters present
late-breaking, preliminary, or exploratory work, smaller projects or results
not suitable for a full paper, and any other research that
authors wish to present in an interactive, open forum. The demonstrations provide
hands-on experience with the latest innovations
and ubiquitous computing technologies, such as showing off the newest sensor
technology, demonstrating cool new interaction techniques, or presenting novel
miniature displays. They also visualize how ubiquitous computing can make a
difference in the real world: be it in plants or in emergency rooms, at school
or in the office.
Videos.
Videos are a great way to present innovations in ubiquitous computing, especially
for those systems that would be particularly difficult to
deploy at the conference for a live demonstration. The video screening is planned
prior to the conference banquet on 13 Sept. to give
opportunity to authors to show their works in a public setting to all Ubicomp
attendees. The videos will also be playing continuously in a dedicated space
during the duration of the conference.
Workshops.
Workshops provide an opportunity to discuss and explore emerging areas of ubiquitous
computing research with a group of like-minded researchers and practitioners.
Workshops will be held on Sunday 11 September, the day before the main conference.
The following workshops take place:
W1. Ubiquitous Computing in Next Generation Conference Rooms: Interweaving
Rich Media, Mobile Devices and Smart Environments
W2. Pervasive Image Capture and Sharing: New Social Practices and Implications
for Technology
W3. Smart Object Systems
W4. Privacy in Context
W5. Ubiquitous Computing, Entertainment, and Games
W6. The Spaces in-between: Seamful vs. Seamless Interactions
W7. Situating Ubiquitous Computing in Everyday Life: Bridging the Social and
Technical Divide
W8. UbiPhysics: Designing for Physically Integrated Interaction
W9. Smart Environments and Their Applications to Cultural Heritage
W10. Monitoring, Measuring, and Motivating Exercise: Ubiquitous Computing to
Support Physical Fitness
W11. Metapolis and Urban Life
W12. ubiPCMM: Personalized Context Modeling and Management for Ubicomp Applications
W13. Ubiquitous Wireless Communications
