The 10th International Conference on
Mobile Data Mangement (MDM'09): Systems, Services and Middleware
May 18-21 2009, Taipei, Taiwan

***** CALL FOR PAPERS *****
Since the debut in December 1999, the MDM series of conferences has established itself
as a prestigious forum for the exchange of innovative and significant research results
in mobile data management. The conference provides unique opportunities for researchers,
engineers, practitioners, developers, and users to explore new ideas, techniques, and
tools, and to exchange experiences.
In the past decade, we have witnessed significant advances in wireless communications
and mobile technology, along with continuous appearance of versatile mobile gadgets and
rapid growth in sensors and actuators. Meanwhile, high-precision outdoor and indoor
positioning technology has become mature and available. A global, pervasive computing
infrastructure that may profoundly change the way people live and work is emerging.
Mobile and pervasive computing and communication are enabled at an unprecedented scale
and density.
All these technological developments are expected to bring us a next wave of information
revolution and change our society. However, as we move a step closer from mobile computing
towards the grand vision of pervasive and ubiquitous computing, a number of challenges
need to be overcome, especially when it comes to data-intensive applications: scale,
variable and intermittent connectivity, location dependence and context awareness, bandwidth
and power consumption, device size limitations, and multimedia delivery across hybrid networks.
Conventional issues in data management have to be reconsidered and reevaluated in this
rapidly changing environment. Non-traditional issues including mobility, data semantics,
context modeling, broadcast and multicast delivery, data availability, trust and privacy
must also be addressed effectively. Additionally, starting from 2009, MDM will extend its
scope to cover research issues in mobile systems, services and middleware.
