[Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] [Please note that the dates have been updated] S E C O N D C A L L F O R P A P E R S 6th ACM International Workshop on Data Engineering for Wireless and Mobile Access (MobiDE'07) Sunday, June 10, 2007 / Beijing, China (colocated with ACM SIGMOD/PODS 2007) http://www.cse.psu.edu/mobide07/ AIMS & TOPICS OF INTEREST: This is the sixth of a successful series of workshops that aim to bring together the data management, wireless networking, and mobile computing communities. The 1st MobiDE workshop took place in Seattle (August 1999), in conjunction with MobiCom 1999; the 2nd MobiDE workshop took place in Santa Barbara (May 2001), together with SIGMOD 2001; the 3rd MobiDE workshop took place in San Diego (September 2003), together with MobiCom 2003; the 4th MobiDE workshop was held in Baltimore (June 2005), in conjunction with SIGMOD 2005; and the 5th MobiDE workshop was held in Chicago (June 2006), in conjunction with SIGMOD 2006. The workshop will serve as a forum for researchers and technologists to discuss the state-of-the-art, present their contributions, and set future directions in data management for mobile and wireless access. The topics of interest related to mobile and wireless data engineering include, but are not limited to: * ad-hoc networked databases * consistency maintenance and management * context-aware data access and query processing * data caching, replication and view materialization * data publication modes: push, broadcast, and multicast * data server models and architectures * database issues for moving objects: storing, indexing, etc. * m-commerce * mobile agent models and languages * mobile database security * mobile databases in scientific, medical, and engineering applications * mobile peer-to-peer applications and services * mobile sensor networks * mobile transaction models and management * mobile web services * mobility awareness and adaptability * pervasive computing * prototype design of mobile databases * quality of service for mobile databases * sensor network data management * transaction migration, recovery and commit processing * wireless multimedia systems * wireless web The workshop will be organized in a manner that fosters interaction and exchange of ideas among the participants. Besides paper presentations, time will be allocated to open discussion forums, informal discussions, or panels. In addition to regular papers, vision or work-in-progress papers that have the potential to stimulate debate on existing solutions or open challenges are especially encouraged. Proposals for panels on newly-emerging or controversial topics are also especially welcome. IMPORTANT DATES Abstract Submissions: Mon, Mar 19, 2007 (Midnight Pacific Time) Regular Paper Submissions: Mon, Mar 26, 2007 (Midnight Pacific Time) Notification of acceptance: Sat, Apr 21, 2007 Camera-ready version due: Fri, May 4, 2007 Workshop date: Sun, Jun 10, 2007 SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS AND PROCEEDINGS The workshop proceedings will be published by ACM. Electronic versions of the papers will be included in the ACM DL and DiSC'08. All of the submissions will be handled electronically. Each paper will be reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. Detailed submission information will be posted on the web site of the workshop (http://www.cse.psu.edu/mobide07/). Full research papers should be formatted in the ACM proceedings format and be at most 8 double-columned pages in 9pt font.
