Final Call for Demo Papers

  
22nd IEEE Conference on Mobile Data Management (IEEE MDM 2021)
http://mdmconferences.org/mdm2021
June 15 - 18, 2021 Toronto, Canada 

  
The MDM series of conferences, since its debut in December 1999, has established itself as a prestigious forum for the exchange of innovative and significant research results in mobile data management. The term mobile in MDM has been used from the very beginning in a broad sense to encompass all aspects of mobility – aspects related to wireless, portable and tiny devices. The conference provides unique opportunities for researchers, engineers, practitioners, developers, and users to explore new ideas, techniques, and tools, and to exchange experiences.

Demos are an important part of MDM 2021. They provide researchers with an exciting and highly interactive way to demonstrate their cutting-edge research results and development in mobile data management.

Topics of interest include, but not limited to:
- Machine Learning/AI for Mobile Data
- Mobile Cloud Computing and Data Management in the Mobile Cloud
- Data Management for Internet of Things (IoT) and Sensor Systems
- Data Management for Augmented Reality Systems
- Data Management for Connected Cars, Intelligent Transportation Systems, Smart Spaces
- Data Management in Mobile Health
- Mobile Crowd-Sourcing and Crowd-Sensing
- Mobile Data Analytics
- Behavioural/Activity Sensing and Analytics
- Mobile Location-Based Social Networks
- Mobile Recommendation Systems
- Context-aware Computing for Intelligent Mobile Services
- Middleware and Tools for Mobile and Pervasive Computing
- Theoretical Foundations of Data-intensive Mobile Computing
- Storage and File Systems for Mobile Data
- Data Stream Processing in Mobile/Sensor Network
- Indexing, Optimisation and Query Processing for Moving Objects/Users
- Location and Trajectory Analytics
- Security and Privacy in Mobile Systems
- Routing, Personalized Routing, Eco-Routing, Routing for Electrical Vehicles
- Transportation-As-A-Service, Mobility-As-A-Service
- Innovative Applications driven by Mobile Data


Demonstration papers will be evaluated according to the novelty of the systems/solution as well as how well the audience can be engaged during the conference. It is therefore in the author's best interest to discuss in the paper itself how demonstrations will be conducted and what aspects thereof will be highlighted (e.g., how interactive it may be). In that respect, it is required that a link to a short video (2-3 min) showcasing a sample demonstration scenario is added as part of the submission.
