SCOPE

The WWW is facing a phenomenal growth in mobile access devices,
embedded internet systems, ad-hoc interaction and wireless
networking as the key enablers for the next generation internet=20
Technological progress in mobile communication, wireless appliances
and the respective mobile services lets us hypothesize that the
future embedded WWW will be a digital environment that is
implicitly aware of the presence of users, sensitive, adaptive
and responsive to user needs, habits and emotions and ubiquitously
accessible, mostly via natural interaction.
=20
The Mobility and Wireless Access Track of WWW2002 solicits papers
dealing with mobile computing and wireless access technologies that
fertilate the evolution of a WWW that is based on seamless access,
awareness, intelligence, and natural interaction. Seamless access
refers to a situation in which we are surrounded by a multitude of
wirelessly interconnected embedded systems, mostly invisible and
hidden in the background of our workplace, home, or outdoor
environment. Awareness refers to the ability of the system to
recognise and localise objects as well as people and their
intentions in a non-obtrusive and implicit way. Intelligence
refers the ability of the digital environment to adapt itself to
the people that live in it, learn from their behaviour, and
possibly recognise intent and habit. Natural interaction
finally refers to advanced modalities like natural speech- and gesture
recognition, as well as speech-synthesis, which will allow to
"operate" the WWW in a much more human-like communication style.


CALL-FOR-PAPERS

Technical papers (maximum 15 pages) describing original, previously
unpublished, completed research, not currently under review by
another conference or journal, are solicited on the following
topics:
