CFP: WAMIS 2010 - The 6th International Symposium on Web and Mobile Information Services

CALL FOR PAPERS WAMIS 2010: The 6th International Symposium on Web and Mobile Information Services http://www.cs.adelaide.edu.au/~wamis2010/index.html In conjunction with the 24th IEEE AINA Conference http://www.aina-conference.org/2010 APRIL 25th to 27th, 2010 Perth, Australia Advances in the Web and mobile technologies offer new and exciting services to users in various domains such as e-business, healthcare, entertainment, and scientific activities. With the advances in mobile technologies, Web also gets richer in its contents and usability. In addition to its widespread usability in the e-commerce, education, and media, it has established its roots in exchanging and sharing information in social communities. For example, user-generated contents in the social networks have transformed the Web into a new era or the Web2.0 - these contents comprise a wealth of information often involving multimedia data such as audio, video, pictures and blogs. These new developments however introduce many new challenging problems to researchers. For example, one of the major issues is to deal with the resource scarcity in mobile environment. Though mobile devices and wireless networks are improving their resources, they are still far behind the wired networks and desktop PCs in terms of bandwidth, memory, processing speed and battery powers. The other major challenge is how to effectively build mobile systems that can dynamically adjust its behavior reacting to the changes in location, context, and variation in network bandwidth.null
