----------------------------------------------------------------------------

MobiSPC-2015 will provide a leading edge, scholarly forum for
researchers, engineers, and students alike to share their state-of-the
art research and developmental work in the broad areas of pervasive
computing and communications.

MobiSPC-2015 will be held in the city of Belfort. Belfort exists since
the Roman period and was official recognized as an autonomous city in
1307. From this date, the city was under the authority of the Burgundy
Duchy and Austrian Empire. In 1638, Belfort becomes a French city.
After the war of 1871, France looses the Alsace and Lorraine regions,
except the city of Belfort for its outstanding defense. The statue of
the Lion of Belfort was made by Bartholdi to commemorate this event.
Belfort is home to multiple academic institutions, and where visitors
can enjoy a variety of activities and entertainment.

MobiSPC-2015 is co-organized & co-hosted by the University of
Technology of Belfort-Montbeliard, France. The University was created
in 1999 from the fusion of two engineering schools. It is member of
the network of the Universities of Technology with Compiegnes, Troyes
and Shanghai (China). The University is located on three campus
located in the towns of Belfort, Sevenans and Montbeliard, from North
to South (separated by 15 kms each). The campus of Belfort is located
in one of the biggest technology and industrial activity park of the
town. Basel (in Switzerland) lies 50 kms away to the East, Strasbourg
150 kms to the North-East, Zurich (in Switzerland) 160 kms to the
East, Franckfurt (in Germany) 350 kms to the North-East, Lyon lies 300
