<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Dr. Daniel M. Yellin Vice President,
IBM Mobile Platform Development, and an IBM Distinguished Engineer. </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Bernd Bruegge is university professor
of computer science with a chair for Applied Software Engineering at the
Technische Universität München and adjunct professor at Carnegie Mellon
University</font>
<br>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Mobile application usage and development
is experiencing exponential growth. According to Gartner, by 2016 more
than 300 billion applications will be downloaded annually. </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The mobile domain presents new challenges
to software engineering. Mobile platforms are rapidly changing, including
diverse capabilities as GPS, sensors, and input modes. </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Applications must be omni-channel and
work on all platforms. Activated on mobile platforms, modern applications
must be elastic and scale on demand according to the hardware abilities.
</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Applications often need to support and
use third-party services. Therefore, during development, security and authorization
processes for the dataflow must be applied. Bring your own device (BYOD)
</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">policies bring new security data leaks
challenges. Developing such applications requires suitable practices and
tools e.g., architecture techniques that relate to the complexity at hand;</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">improved refactoring tools for hybrid
applications using dynamic languages and polyglot development and applications;
and testing techniques for applications that run on different devices.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">This workshop aims at establishing a
community of researchers and practitioners to share their work and lead
further research in the mobile development area.</font>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">We solicit contributions related to
