         Techniques and Applications for Mobile Commerce
              Wroclaw, Poland, September 9-12, 2012
                (http://www.fedcsis.org/tamoco)

          Paper submission deadline : April 22, 2012

Mobile Commerce (M-Commerce) comprises applications and services that
are accessible from mobile devices. It involves new technologies, 
services, and business models as well as the traditional 
telecommunication infrastructure and industry. Mobile devices, such as 
smart phones or tablets, open the door to a great assortment of new 
applications and services. Location and other context information is 
used to tailor services according to the needs of the user. The number 
of mobile services available is constantly increasing and evolving 
towards manageable and practical applications, for private use as well 
as in an enterprise context. On the other hand, the services provided by 
the telecom operators around the globe require continuous reinventing 
and upgrading of data centers, networks and software.

The goal of TAMOCO is to bring together researchers and practitioners
that work in different aspects of mobile services and telecommunication 
in the context of business applications and commercial implementation. 
This includes the incorporation of web services and cloud-based 
services, autonomic mobile computing, and the integration and interplay 
with urban systems and other contexts. Additionally, application areas 
such as e.g. mobile learning and extended enterprise are covered.


Topics include, but are not limited to:
      Analysis and Design of mobile web-service based applications
      Design and programming techniques for web-service based systems
      Applications of emergent self-organization
      Autonomic middleware for mobile computing
      Measurement, control, and evaluation of urban infrastructure
      Integration of mobile solutions in urban infrastructure
      Standards and norms for the design and application of services
      Languages and methods for mobile based information systems
      Enabling technologies for ubiquitous systems
      Security, privacy and legal issues
      Survey's and state of the art reports
      Tools, technologies and platforms for mobile applications
      Governance models of mobile computation
      Network design and optimisation
      Resource dependent quality of service commitments
