As the mobile computing technology matures, millions of mobile users start accessing various distributed information resources. Emergence of wireless sensor networks introduces new challenges in processing continuously changing sensor data streams. The focus of this workshop is on issues in mobile systems and databases. A particular objective is to explore emerging mobility challenges related to pervasive, ubiquitous and sensor computing and data management. The aim is to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the related areas. Both theoretical and practical experience papers are solicited. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: -Data models for mobile information systems -Impact of mobility in distributed applications and pervasive systems -Software architectures for mobile distributed computing systems -Wireless communications support for mobile applications -Infrastructure for mobile computing research -Mobile database management and mobility-aware data servers -Mobile transaction and workflow management & models -Data & process migration, replication/caching and recovery -Mobile agents and code -Moving objects and location-aware data management -Mobile Web services -Adaptability and stability of pervasive systems in wireless environments -User interface management for pervasive devices -Resource allocation and management in mobile computing environment -Sensor data management -Pervasive and context-aware computing The workshop will be organized in a manner designed to foster interaction and exchange of ideas among the participants.
