3rd International Symposium on Location- and Context-Awareness
September 20th-21st, 2007
Oberpfaffenhofen near Munich, Germany

The 2007 Symposium on Location and Context Awareness seeks new and significant research on systems, services, and applications to detect, interpret and use of location and other contextual information. Context includes users’ activities, goals, abilities, preferences, interruptibility, affordances, and surroundings. With context, we can expect computers to deliver information, services, and entertainment in a way that maximizes convenience and minimizes intrusion. Developing awareness involves research in sensing, inference, data representation, and design.

Topic Areas:
We seek technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research results. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Sensing location and context
• Inference techniques for context from low-level sensor data
• Privacy and sharing of location and context information
• User studies of location- and context-aware systems

Dates:

• Submission Deadline: May 29, 2007
• Author Notification: July 3, 2007
• Camera-Ready Version: July 10, 2007
• Symposium: Sept. 20-21, 2007
