Call For Papers

The goal of UDM is to bring together researchers and practitioners from both data management and ubiquitous computing. It aims at investigating the new challenges that Ubiquitous Data Management technologies have introduced and new ways through which these technologies can improve existing data management solutions.

The 2nd international workshop UDM2010 aims to tackle new emerging issues for various ubiquitous information platforms. In particular, objective is to focus more on issues related to data management (acquisition, storage, retrieval, and delivery) and knowledge processing (information credibility analysis, correlation analysis and ambient intelligence) for wide variety of digital data in real world.

The topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Access control and contents delivery for real world
  • Conceptual modeling for ubiquitous data management
  • Context-aware pervasive computing
  • Contents management and retrieval for digital signage
  • Digital content embedded in real world environment and it's utilization technologies
  • Data management issues for augmented reality
  • Personalization and adaptation for ubiquitous environment
  • Information retrieval for P2P and cloud computing
  • Query language and processing for ubiquitous data management
  • Sensor network data management and traceability
  • Mobile data management
  • Location-based services
  • Spatio-temporal data and GIS
  • Geographical information retrieval
  • User interfaces for contents access by pervasive devices
  • Web browsing and retrieval in mobile/ubiquitous environment
  • Information credibility in real-world
  • Ambient Intelligence

Publication

Proceedings are planned to be published as a volume of Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) from Springer after the workshops. At the workshop site, we will hand out informal on-site proceedings to participants.
