TAMoCo'14 - Techniques and Applications for Mobile Communications &  
Commerce
http://fedcsis.org/tamoco

as part of
Federated Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems  
(FedCSIS’14)
Warsaw, Poland, September 7-10, 2014

CONFERENCE BACKGROUND AND GOALS
Mobile technology became one of the most vibrant and stimulating areas  
driving forward the ICT society of the 21st century. Mobile communication  
networks have evolved into the new delivery platform and services  
consumption models for many industries and government organizations  
worldwide.
Mobile devices, such as smart phones or tablets, open the door to a great  
assortment of new applications and services. This may also include new  
types of specific application settings such as medical environments,  
support for disabled people, industrial workspaces, process monitoring,  
automatics and diagnostics or measurement activities in remote and  
distributed environments. Location, other context information and personal  
data are used to tailor services directly to the needs of the user. This  
leads to pervasive environments in which users can always access the  
Internet. While this seems to be an exciting development it also raises  
substantial security and privacy concerns which need to be properly  
addressed.
Mobile Commerce (M-Commerce) comprises applications and services that are  
accessible from Internet-enabled mobile devices. It involves new  
technologies, services, and business models. Whilst it is different from  
traditional e-Commerce it can also be considered as an extension of it  
since, among other reasons, it makes e-Commerce available, in a modern  
way, to new application areas and to a new set of customers.
The goal of TAMoCo is to bring together researchers and practitioners that  
work in different aspects of mobile communications and services in the  
context of business and industrial applications. This includes the  
incorporation of web services and cloud-based services, autonomic mobile  
computing, and the integration and interplay with urban systems,  
industrial settings, medical environments and other contexts. Research  
contributions in application areas such as mobile learning, human centered  
design, support of disabled people, ubiquitous computing and extended  
enterprise are also welcome in TAMoco’14. Finally, security is perhaps the  
most important factor for the success of mobile communications, commerce  
and mobile applications.
TOPICS OF INTEREST

(including tables, figures and references). IEEE style templates are  
available here.
• Papers will be refereed, by the members of the Technical Program  
Committee, and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit and  
relevance to the conference.Only papers presented at the conference will  
be included in the IEEE Xplore® database and submitted for indexation.
• Proceedings of the TAMoCo’14 conference will be published as part of the  
proceedings of the FedCSIS 2014 conference, which will be indexed in the  
Thomson Reuters - Conference Proceedings Citation Index..
• Furthermore, FedCSIS’14 proceedings will be submitted for indexation to:  
DBLP Computer Science Bibliography, Inspec, Scirus, and other repositories.
• Extended versions of selected papers presented during the conference may  
be published as Special Issue(s) of journal(s) to be announced later.
