CALL FOR PAPERS -- e-HPWAS'13

7th October 2013
Lyon, France
in conjunction with 9th IEEE WiMob 2013

******************************************

The international workshop on e-Health Pervasive Wireless Applications 
and Services e-HPWAS'13 (in conjunction with the 9th IEEE WiMob 
conference) targets providing optimal, secured and context aware 
e-health services with the best quality of services (QoS) and user’s 
experience (QoE). Applications and services are considered in wireless 
environments and architecture with a strong heterogeneity of the used 
access technologies, sensors, terminals, users’ needs and services 
(data, content, live streams or complex network services). Emerging 
e-Health services and applications can involve the use of “heavy” 
content such as multimedia content and streams (e.g. 3D-TV, media 
conferencing, remote live diagnostics) using conventional e-health 
equipments and devices but also using modern devices like smart TV sets, 
home-boxes, smartphones and tablets. The considered issues of e-HPWAS 
are related to e-Health care and safety services provided for patients, 
elderly and dependent persons. These services are generally built using 
different communication technologies, for different profiles of people 
and in different contexts and places (e.g. in health institutions, at 
home, in the city). Ideally, provided services should be accessible 
anytime, anywhere and using any kind of device or platform.

eHPWAS encourages the submission of original works describing research 
results, practical or industrial e-health solutions. Papers describing 
advanced prototypes, platforms, techniques and general survey for 
discussing future perspectives and directions are also encouraged.

All accepted papers will be published in the WiMob 2013 conference 
proceedings published by IEEE. The workshops will be held in Lyon, 
France on October 7, 2013.
The e-HPWAS organizers plan to have selected papers appear in a special 
journal issue. A selection of accepted papers will be considered and 
invited to produce an extended version to be published in a special 
issue of International Journal of E-Health and Medical Communications 
(IJEHMC): 
http://www.igi-global.com/journal/international-journal-health-medical-communications/1158). 


All papers will be considered for the Best Paper Award. The workshop 
organizers will select a number of candidates for the award among 
accepted papers. The winner will be selected at the workshop, 
considering both the paper and the presentation. An Award will be given 
to the best paper presented at the workshop. The winners of the Award 
will be announced at the closing session of the workshop.
