MobiQuitous 2005 Call for Papers

by Andreas Sawides

Dear Colleague, Enclosed below please find a Preliminary Announcement and Call for Papers for the Second Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Networking and Services, to be held in San Diego, California from July 17-21, 2005. For complete information about the upcoming conference, please visit: http://www.mobiquitous.org/ A printer friendly version of this CFP is available at: http://www.mobiquitous.org/MQ2005-CFP.pdf (PDF) We apologize if you received multiple copies of this Call for Papers. Please feel free to distribute it to those who might be interested. Best regards, Mobiquitous 2005 Organizing Committee *********************************************************************** MobiQuitous 2005 CALL FOR PAPERS The Second Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Networking and Services http://www.mobiquitous.org July 17-21, 2005, San Diego, California PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE: February 2, 2005 Sponsored by: CreateNet (www.create-net.it) and ICST Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society (Pending) Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Communications Society (Pending) In Cooperation with ACM SIGMOBILE (Pending) Technically Co-Sponsored by AAAI (Pending) Proceedings to be published by IEEE Computer Society Press and to be made available on IEEE Explore **************************************** The combination of mobile and ubiquitous computing is emerging as a promising new paradigm with the goal to provide computing and communication services all the time, everywhere, transparently and invisibly to the user, using devices embedded in the surrounding physical environment. In this context, the communication devices, the objects with which they interact, or both may be mobile. The implementation of such a paradigm requires advances in wireless network technologies and devices, development of infrastructures supporting cognitive environments, and discovery and identification of ubiquitous computing applications and services. The second Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: networking and services (Mobiquitous-05) will cover all these aspects, representing a forum where practitioners and researchers coming from the many areas involved in ubiquitous solutions design and deployment will be able to interact exchanging the cross-layer experiences needed to build the overall ubiquitous systems. Areas addressed by the conference include: applications, service-oriented computing, middleware, networking, agents, knowledge management and databases. PAPERS: Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by another conference or journal, are solicited. The conference is interested in contributions addressing all the areas associated with mobile and ubiquitous architectures, infrastructure and services. Technical works clearly identifying how the specific contributions fit to an overall working solution are particularly of interest. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following: * Ubiquitous architectures and systems * Wearable computing and personal area network * Wireless technologies for mobile and ubiquitous (Bluetooth, ZigBee, 802.15.x, WiFi) * Incentive-based deployment of ad hoc networks * Reconfigurability and personalization of wireless network * Service discovery mechanisms, knowledge discovery, matching and composition mechanisms * Wireless/mobile service management and delivery * Security, privacy and social issues of mobile and ubiquitous systems * Peer-to-peer knowledge management * Emerging industrial/business scenarios * Multimodal interfaces (speech, video kinetic, tactile) * Smart spaces * Ad hoc and sensor networking * Localization and tracking * Context and location aware application * Multimedia encoding and transcoding * Middleware services * Agent technologies in ubiquitous, wearable, andmobile systems * Hardware and software platforms for ubiquitous systems, and testbeds * User interfaces * Toolkits, development environments, and languages for ubiquitous computing * Ontologies for mobile and ubiquitous computing SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: All paper submissions will be handled electronically (see the conference web page for details). Authors should prepare a Portable Document Format (PDF) or postscript version of their full paper. Papers must not exceed 8 pages double column (US Letter size, 8.5 x 11 inches) including text, figures and references. The font size must be at least 10 points. The deadline for registering the title and the abstract of the paper with our electronic submission system is February 2, 2005. The deadline for submitting the actual paper is February 9, 2005.

Ainslie/Breakdown of Will: BBS Multiple Book Review

by Behavioral & Brain Sciences

Dear Dr. Qwerty, Below is a link to the forthcoming précis of a book accepted for Multiple Book Review in Behavioral and Brain Sciences (BBS). "Breakdown of Will" by George Ainslie Behavioral and Brain Sciences (BBS), is an international, interdisciplinary journal providing Open Peer Commentary on important and controversial current research in the biobehavioral and cognitive sciences. IMPORTANT: Please note that it is the *BOOK*, not the précis, that is to be reviewed. Reviewers must be BBS Associates or nominated by a BBS Associate. To be considered as a reviewer for this book, to suggest other appropriate reviewers, or for information about how to become a BBS Associate, please reply by EMAIL within three (3) weeks to: calls(a)bbsonline.org The Calls are sent to 10,000 BBS Associates, so there is no expectation (indeed, it would be calamitous) that each recipient should comment on every occasion! Hence there is no need to reply except if you wish to comment, or to nominate someone to comment. If you are not a BBS Associate, please approach a current BBS Associate (there are currently over 10,000 worldwide) who is familiar with your work to nominate you. All past BBS authors, referees and commentators are eligible to become BBS Associates. A full electronic list of current BBS Associates is available at this location to help you select a name: http://www.bbsonline.org/Instructions/assoclist.html If no current BBS Associate knows your work, please send us your Curriculum Vitae and BBS will circulate it to appropriate Associates to ask whether they would be prepared to nominate you. (In the meantime, your name, address and email address will be entered into our database as an unaffiliated investigator.) To help you decide whether you would be an appropriate reviewer for this book, an electronic draft of the precis (only) is retrievable at the URL that follows the abstract below. ======================================================================= *** MULTIPLE BOOK REVIEW - PROPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS *** ======================================================================= Please DO NOT prepare a review unless you are formally invited. To help us put together a balanced list of reviewers, it would be most helpful if you would send us as specific as possible an indication of the relevant expertise you would bring to bear on the subject, and what aspect of the book you would anticipate commenting upon. We will then let you know whether it was possible to include your name on the final formal list of invitees. (Please do not simply indicate that we have your expertise information in our records. We request this information in order to simplify and thus, speed up the selection process.) As noted earlier, it is the *BOOK*, not the précis, that is to be reviewed. IMPORTANT: Please indicate whether you already have the book or would require a review copy to be sent to you. Please include your full mailing address if you would need a copy of the book. ======================================================================= *** MULTIPLE BOOK REVIEW - INFORMATION *** ======================================================================= BOOK: Breakdown of Will AUTHOR: George Ainslie PRECIS ABSTRACT: Behavioral science has long been puzzled by the experience of temptation, the resulting impulsiveness, and the variably successful control of this impulsiveness. In conventional theories a governing faculty like the ego evaluates future choices consistently over time, discounting their value for delay exponentially, that is, by a constant rate; impulses arise when this ego is confronted by a conditioned appetite. Breakdown of Will (Ainslie, 2001) presents evidence that contradicts this model. Both people and nonhuman animals discount the value of expected events in a curve where value is divided approximately by expected delay, a hyperbolic form that is much more bowed than the rational, exponential curve. With hyperbolic discounting, options that pay off quickly will be temporarily preferred to richer but slower-paying alternatives, a phenomenon that, over times on the order of days, can account for impulsive behaviors, and over periods of fractional seconds can account for involuntary behaviors. Contradictory reward-getting processes can in effect bargain with each other, and stable preferences can be established by the perception of recurrent choices as test cases (precedents) in recurrent intertemporal prisoner's dilemmas. The resulting motivational pattern resembles traditional descriptions of the will, as well as of compulsive phenomena that can now be seen as side-effects of will: overconcern with precedent, intractable but circumscribed failures of self-control, a motivated ("dynamic") unconscious, and an inability to exploit emotional rewards. Hyperbolic curves also suggest a means of reducing classical conditioning to motivated choice, the last necessary step for modeling many involuntary processes like emotion and appetite as reward-seeking behaviors, which in turn provide a rationale for empathic reward and the "construction" of reality. PRECIS KEYWORDS: Altruism; appetite; behavioral economics; compulsions; conditioning; dynamic inconsistency; emotions; empathy; freedom of will, impulsiveness; intertemporal bargaining; self-control; social construction; volition; weakness of will PRECIS: http://www.bbsonline.org/Preprints/Ainslie-09072004/Referees/ ======================================================================= ======================================================================= *** SUPPLEMENTARY ANNOUNCEMENT *** (1) Call for Book Nominations for BBS Multiple Book Review In the past, Behavioral and Brain Sciences (BBS) had only been able to do 1-2 BBS multiple book treatments per year, because of our limited annual page quota. BBS's new expanded page quota will make it possible for us to increase the number of books we treat per year, so this is an excellent time for BBS Associates and biobehavioral/cognitive scientists in general to nominate books you would like to see accorded BBS multiple book review. (Authors may self-nominate, but books can only be selected on the basis of multiple nominations.) It would be very helpful if you indicated in what way a BBS Multiple Book Review of the book(s) you nominate would be useful to the field (and of course a rich list of potential reviewers would be the best evidence of its potential impact!). *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Please note: Your email address has been added to our user database for Calls for Commentators, the reason you received this email. If you do not wish to receive further Calls, please feel free to change your mailshot status through your User Login link on the BBSPrints homepage, using your username and password.
