The 6th
International Workshop on
Mobile Commerce and Services
(WMCS2010)
http://www.engr.sjsu.edu/wmcs/
in
cooperation with
The 5th International Conference on Grid and Pervasive Computing (GPC2010)
Workshop Duration:
One Day Workshop
The
wide deployment of wireless networks and mobile technologies and the
significant increase in the number of mobile device users have created a very
strong demand for emerging mobile commerce applications and services based on
today’s wireless network technologies. This trend has provided many new
business opportunities and challenges to e-commerce vendors, mobile service
providers, mobile content publishers and marketplaces, mobile technology
providers and solution integrators. Living in a wireless world changes and
enhances people’s life in many ways, such as communications, information sharing
and learning, e-commerce and mobile application services. At the same time,
businesses and government agencies are confronted with new pressure for
technology update, that is, how to provide customers and users with reliable
and secure mobile commerce applications and efficient and user-friendly mobile
services.
To
meet this increasing demand on mobile commerce and mobile services, people are
looking for innovative ideas to create next generation mobile-commerce
applications and service systems. Mobile commerce and services has become a
very hot research subject in both business and research communities. The major
theme of this workshop is to study new business models, emerging mobile
technology, and engineering methods to build the next generation of mobile
commerce service systems supporting mobile users anywhere at anytime.
The
6th International Workshop on Mobile Commerce and Services (WMCS2010) is a
forum to bring together business people, researchers, scientists, software
architects, and industry professionals to discuss innovative ideas and diverse
topics on next generation of mobile-commerce and services. Using this forum,
researchers and practitioners can exchange issues, challenges, new business
models and structures, and new technologies and solutions.
Researchers
and practitioners are invited to submit original and research papers addressing
business and technical issues, challenges, solutions, and technologies in
building wireless-based software systems and applications. All submissions will
be peer-reviewed by the members of the international program committee.
Accepted paper will be included in the GPC 2010 workshop proceedings.

Since 2004,
we have successfully organized and delivered a number of international
workshops (WMCS2004, WMCS2005, WMCS2006, EMOBS07, WMCS2008, and WMCS2009) on
the same subject. The workshop aims at attracting both researchers from
academic and industrial institutions and practitioners from industry. The
subject of this workshop has since become a hot research topic.
Original
papers that are not published previously or under review by other journals or
conferences will be considered. All submitted papers will be evaluated
according to their originality, significance, correctness, presentation and
relevance. The URL link of
WMCS2010 workshop paper submission http://edas.info/index.php?c=8345. For
format and style guidelines authors should refer to: http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-7-72376-0 The authors
should prepare their final paper according to the instructions in this web
page. Manuscripts will be limited to 8-12 pages
following LNCS conference proceedings style and guidelines. Papers that present
novel ideas, criticize existing work, and discuss practical studies and
experiments are especially encouraged.
Accepted papers will be published in LNCS by Springer. At least one of the
authors of each accepted paper must register as a full participant of the
workshop to have the paper published in the proceedings.
Expected Achievements:
The
organizers intend to achieve an overview of the current research in the area of
engineering wireless-based systems and applications. Furthermore, a roadmap
will be developed together with the attendees of the workshop with the goal of
initiating cooperation among the attendees. Selected best papers will be
published in Journal of Theoretical and Applied Electronic Commerce Research.
