MobiQuitous 2017 (http://mobiquitous.org/2017) invites proposals for workshops of the 14th International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Services, to be held in Melbourne, Australia, 6-9 November 2017.
We are soliciting workshop proposals on any topic of relevance to Mobile and Ubiquitous Computing. All workshops will be held on 6 November 2017. Workshops are a great opportunity for community building and a forum for attendees with common interests. Accepted workshop papers are included in the adjunct proceedings of the Mobiquitous Conference and will be accessible via the ACM digital library. Pre-proposal Submission Inquiries Should you wish to discuss ideas for a workshop proposal, feel free to contact the Workshops Chair at [email protected].
