     Introduction
====================

The 8th International Symposium on Wireless sensor network Technologies and
Applications for Smart Space (WTA 2012)
will be held in Jeju, Korea, November 22-25, 2012. Smart Spaces (SS)
represents an advanced communication environment
featuring daily-life objects that continuously involve and are focused on
final non-expert users. SS has rapidly emerged
as an exciting new paradigm that tends to include different active research
fields such as ubiquitous, grid, and P2P
computing. SS environments have recently raised tremendous interests in
both the academic and the industrial research
communities as one of the most promising application fields for pervasive
computing services.
The WTA 2012 aims to address system and network issues for SS
communications. It will solicit both original research papers
and review articles that enhance the state-of-the-art in these fields,
including topics like effective context extraction and
representation, context-based service discovery, context-based service
composition, integration of legacy systems and services,
security theory, business models, and novel applications that are
associated with SS utilization. The papers will be peer reviewed
by at least three independent reviewers and will be selected on the basis
of their quality and relevance to the theme of
this conference. WTA 2012 is the next event in a series of highly
successful symposium on wireless sensor network technologies and
applications for SS (WTA), previously held as WTA-11 (Jeju, Korea, Dec
2010), WTA-10 (Gwangju, Korea, Dec 2010), SH-10 (Busan, Korea, May 2010),
SH-09
(Toronto, Canada, July 2009), SH-08 (Hainan, China, Dec. 2008), SH-07
(Jeju, Korea, Dec. 2007), IWSH-06 (Jeju, Korea, Nov. 2006).

=========================
Topics
=========================

conference, are solicited in
relevant areas including, but not limited to, the following:
