          The 2013 ACM International Joint Conference on
                Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing

            September 8-12, 2013, Zurich (Switzerland)

The  2013  ACM  International  Joint  Conference  on  Pervasive  and Ubiquitous Computing (UbiComp 2013) is the result of a merger of the two most renown conferences in the  field:  Pervasive  and  UbiComp.
The conference will be held in this new merged format for  the  very first time from September 8-12, 2013, in Zurich, Switzerland.

By offering a single venue for the  leading  worldwide  research  in Pervasive and Ubiquitous computing, the new format will better serve the needs of the research community  by  attracting  more  attendees (including the leading Pervasive/UbiComp researchers worldwide), and enabling more satellite events. UbiComp 2013 will be multi-track and the acceptance rate is planned to be at the higher end  of  previous UbiComp and Pervasive conferences (i.e., around 20%).

We welcome high quality papers, either in Full Paper format (max  10 pages, ACM  double-column)  or  Note  format  (max  4  pages),  that describe original and unpublished research advancing  the  state  of
the  art  in  pervasive  and  ubiquitous  computing.    Topics   for
submissions will include any work that one would  previously  expect to find at either UbiComp or Pervasive, such as:

- Systems & infrastructures: descriptions of the design,
  architecture, deployment and evaluation of systems and
  infrastructures that support ubiquitous computing
- Devices & techniques: descriptions of the design, architecture,
  usage and evaluation of devices and techniques that create
  valuable new capabilities for ubiquitous computing
- Applications & experiences: descriptions of the design and/or
  empirical study of applications that leverage Ubicomp devices
  and systems
- Methodologies & tools: new methods and tools applied to studying
  or building Ubicomp systems and applications
- Theories & models: critical analysis or organizing theory with
  clear relevance to the design or study of Ubicomp systems

All work should be grounded in  existing  Pervasive  and  Ubiquitous Computing literature and knowledge, and should  be  written  for  an
interdisciplinary  audience.   Submissions  should  not  have   been
previously  published  or  be  concurrently  under  submission   for
publication for any other conference,  journal,  workshop  or  other publication with an ISBN, ISSN, or DOI number.

UbiComp 2013 will introduce a number of changes  to  the  submission and review process of prior Pervasive and  UbiComp  conferences,  in
particular a novel "revise and  resubmit"  phase.   For  a  detailed
description  of  these   changes,   along   with   full   submission
instructions, see the conference website at http://www.ubicomp.org/.

IMPORTANT DATES
- March 22, 2013: Paper submission deadline (hard deadline!)
- May 8, 2013: Author notifications (incl. "revise & resubmit")
- June 5, 2013: Revised paper submission deadline
- June 16, 2013: Author notifications for revised submissions
- September 8-9, 2013: Workshops and doctoral consortium
- September 10-12, 2013: Main conference (Zurich, Switzerland)

Following several successful collaborations as part of the Pervasive conference series, UbiComp  2013  will  continue  the  tradition  of cohosting with ISWC 2013, i.e., UbiComp attendees will  be  able  to attend all ISWC sessions and vice versa, at no extra charge.
