UNet is a new international scientific event that highlights new
trends and findings in hot topics related to ubiquitous
computing/networking. This first edition will <span
__postbox-detected-content="__postbox-detected-date"
class="__postbox-detected-content __postbox-detected-date"

in the fascinating city of Casablanca, Morocco.<br>
<br>
Ubiquitous networks sustain development of numerous paradigms/
technologies such as distributed ambient intelligence,
context-awareness, cloud computing, wearable devices, and future mobile
networking (e.g., B4G and 5G). Various do<span

are then impacted by such
a system, one cite security and monitoring, energy efficiency and
environment protection, e-health, precision agriculture, intelligent
transportation, home-care (e.g., for elderly and disabled people), etc.<br>
<br>

 Communication in such a system has to cope

(e.g., limited capacity resources, energy
depletion strong fluctuations of traffic, Real-time paradigm, dynamic
network topology, radio link breakage, interferences, etc.) and has to
meet the new application requirements. Ubiquitous systems

style="display: inline; font-size: inherit; padding: 0pt;">many</span></span> promising
paradigms aiming to deliver significantly higher
capacity to meet the huge growth of mobile data traffic and to
accommodate efficiently dense and ultra-dense systems. A crucial
challenge is that ubiquitous networks should be engineered to better
support existing and emerging applications including broadband
multimedia, machine-to-machine applications, Internet of things, sensor
networks and RFID technologies. <span

class="__postbox-detected-content __postbox-detected-date"
style="display: inline; font-size: inherit; padding: 0pt;">Many</span> of
these systems require stringent
quality-of-service (QoS) including better latency, reliability, higher
spectral and energy efficiency, but also some quality-of-experience and
quality-of-context constraints.<br>
<br>

 The <span __postbox-detected-content="__postbox-detected-date"
class="__postbox-detected-content __postbox-detected-date"
style="display: inline; font-size: inherit; padding: 0pt;">main</span> purpose
of this symposium is to serve as a forum that
brings together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry
to discuss recent developments in pervasive and ubiquitous networks.
This conference will provide a forum to exchange ideas, discuss
solutions, debate on identified challenges and share experiences among
researchers and professionals. UNet aims also to promote adoption of new
methodologies and to provide the participants with advanced and
innovative tools able to catch the fundamental dynamics of the
underlying complex interactions (e.g., game theory, Mechanism Design
theory, Learning theory, SDR platforms, etc.). Papers describing
original research on both theoretical and practical aspects of pervasive
computing and future mobile computing (e.g., LTE-A, LTE-B, 5G) are
invited for submission to UNet 2015.<br>
<br>
