[AIM and SCOPE]
The tremendous advances in wireless communication and mobile 
computing technologies have created a new computing and 
communication environment that provides services anytime and 
anywhere for everyone. Such an environment enables users to 
access a wide range of services and applications using a large 
variety of mobile and ubiquitous devices (e.g., cell phones, 
handheld computers, and so on). In order to accelerate this 
trend in the future, further progresses of the researches on 
wireless and pervasive computing, especially on data management, 
are necessary.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together practitioners and 
researchers from both academia and industry in order to have a 
forum for discussion and technical presentations on the current 
researches and future research directions related to this hot 
research area.


[TOPICS of INTEREST]
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the 
following areas:
 - Data mining for mobile applications
 - Data management for pervasive computing
 - Data aggregation in sensor networks
 - Data placement, caching, replication and relocation to 
   support mobility
 - Metadata management and exchanges for mobile and ubiquitous 
   applications
 - Middleware support for mobile and ubiquitous computing
 - Operating system and network support for mobile devices
 - Integration and interworking of wired and wireless networks
 - Security issues of data management in wireless networks
