EAI MobilWare 2021 will be held as a fully-fledged online conference

In 2020, EAI successfully launched an online conference format to ensure the safety, comfort and quality of experience for attendees and a successful course of the events, all while retaining fully live interaction, publication and indexing. Due to the unrelenting global pandemic, this will also be the case in 2021.
Although we will miss having everyone meet and connect in person, we feel strongly that knowledge exchange must continue, if not more so. That is why we have equipped our online conferences with live viewing with chat, virtual Q&A, and a multitude of other measures to provide you with a great experience. Learn more about EAI’s online conferences.
 

Scope

The era of higher speed communication, based on technologies such as 5G, Bluetooth 5.0 and standard-based low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) protocols, has been witnessed their maturities these days. These techniques have also been adopted in many services in the society such as intelligent environments, autonomous driving, intelligent manufacturing and so on, allowing brand new applications. On the other hand, it is crucial to ensure its reliability, adaptivity and ubiquity with the advancement of software technology in these communication sectors. In MobilWare 2021, we will discuss various related topics ranging from communication middleware and operating systems to networking protocols and applications.

All accepted authors are eligible to submit an extended version in a fast track of:

Additional publication opportunities:

Paper submission

Papers should be submitted through EAI ‘Confy+‘ system, and have to comply with the Springer format (see Author’s kit section).

All conference papers undergo a thorough peer review process prior to the final decision and publication. This process is facilitated by experts in the Technical Program Committee during a dedicated conference period. Standard peer review is enhanced by EAI Community Review which allows EAI members to bid to review specific papers. All review assignments are ultimately decided by the responsible Technical Program Committee Members while the Technical Program Committee Chair is responsible for the final acceptance selection. You can learn more about Community Review here.
