SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES

The advances in Location-based Services and Applications in Ubiquitous 
Computing of mobile devices have enabled the realization of intelligent 
environments for people and machines to communicate with each other, 
interact with information processing devices, and receive a wide range 
of mobile wireless services through various types of networks and 
systems everywhere, anytime.  A key enabler of these ubiquitous 
connectivity environments is the advancement of location-aware 
technology in various communication sectors, ranging from communication 
middleware and operating systems to networking protocols and 
applications.  The International Workshop on Location-based Services and 
Applications in Ubiquitous Computing (LSAUC 2014) will provide a forum 
for practitioners and researchers from diverse backgrounds to interact 
and exchange experiences about the design and implementation of mobile 
and ubiquitous systems.

The LSAUC Workshop topics of interest include (but are not limited to) 
the following:
  - Location Mechanisms and Services
  - Location and Discovery of Things on the Internet
  - Location-aware and Context-aware Networking and Computing
  - Location-based Services and Geographic Information Systems
  - Location-based Wireless Sensor Networks
  - Location-based Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks
  - Location-Aware Applications in Smartphones
  - Context-aware Computing for Location-based Applications
  - Communications Architectures and Protocols in Ubiquitous Computing
  - Positioning and Tracking Technologies for Ubiquitous Applications
  - Ubiquitous Computing for Location-Based Social Networks
  - Ubiquitous Social Wireless Networks
  - User Interfaces and Usability Issues for Ubiquitous Applications
  - Innovative Mobile Social Networking Applications
  - Social Location-based Context-aware Systems, Services, and Applications
  - Middleware platforms for location/context-dependent services

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PAPER SUBMISSIONS:
You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works on 
above and other topics related to location-based services and 
applications in Ubiquitous Computing.  Submitted papers must not have 
been published or simultaneously submitted elsewhere. Submission should 
include a cover page with authors' names, affiliation addresses, fax 
numbers, phone numbers, and email addresses.  Please, indicate clearly 
the corresponding author and include up to 6 keywords from the above 
list of topics and an abstract of no more than 400 words.  The full 
manuscript should be at most 8 pages using the two-column IEEE format.  
Additional pages will be charged additional fee.  Short papers (up to 4 
pages), poster papers and posters (please refer to 
http://hpcs2014.cisedu.info/home/posters for the posters submission 
details) will also be accepted for submission.  In case of multiple 
authors, an indication of which author(s) is responsible for 
correspondence must be indicated. Please include page numbers on all 
submissions to make it easier for reviewers to provide helpful comments.

Submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript to the Workshop submission 
site at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lsauc2014 .  
Acknowledgement will be sent within 48 hours of submission.

Only PDF files will be accepted.  Each paper will receive a minimum of 
three reviews.  Papers will be selected based on their originality, 
relevance, contributions, technical clarity and presentation.  
Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to 
register and present the paper, if accepted. Authors of accepted papers 
must guarantee that their papers will be registered and presented at the 
workshop.

Proceedings
Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. 
Instructions for final manuscript format and requirements will be posted 
on the HPCS 2014 web site.  It is our intent to have the proceedings 
formally published in hard and soft copies and be available at the time 
of the conference.  The proceedings is to be published as ISBN 
proceedings by the IEEE and will be available online through IEEE 
Digital Library and indexed by major indexing services accordingly 
(e.g., EI indexing).

If you have any questions about paper submission or the workshop, please 
contact the workshop organizers.
