*Description:*
Mobile Commerce (M-Commerce) comprises applications and services that 
are accessible from Internet-enabled mobile devices. It involves new 
technologies, services, and business models. Whilst it is different from 
traditional e-Commerce it can also be considered as an extension of it 
since, among other reasons, it makes e-Commerce available, in a modern 
way, to new application areas and to a new set of customers.

Mobile devices, such as smart phones or tablets, open the door to a 
great assortment of new applications and services. This may also include 
new types of specific application settings such as medical environments, 
industrial workspaces, process monitoring, automatics and diagnostics or 
measurement activities in remote and distributed environments. Location, 
other context information and personal data are used to tailor services 
directly to the needs of the user. This leads to pervasive environments 
in which users can always access the Internet. While this seems to be a 
good development it also means that privacy concerns become more and 
more important.

The goal of TAMOCO is to bring together researchers and practitioners 
that work in different aspects of mobile services in the context of 
business and industrial applications. This includes the incorporation of 
web services and cloud-based services, autonomic mobile computing, and 
the integration and interplay with urban systems, industrial settings, 
medical environments and other contexts. Also, application areas such as 
mobile learning, human centred design, ubiquitous computing and extended 
enterprise are covered. Finally, security is perhaps the most important 
factor for the success of mobile commerce and mobile applications.

*Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:*
* Tools, technologies, platforms and infrastructure for mobile networks 
and applications
* Concepts and methods for evaluating problems and the usefulness of 
mobile technologies
* Maintenance and management of distributed, remote sensing systems in 
industrial workspaces
* Autonomic middleware for mobile computing
* Mobile learning theories, games and simulation
* Analysis and Design of mobile web-service based applications
* Enabling technologies for ubiquitous systems (mobility, 
interconnectivity, pervasiveness as well as personal and body area 
handheld devices examples)
* Governance models of mobile computation
* User experience, user interface design and user studies for mobile 
devices and systems
* Human factors and user centred design in mobile technology applications
* Collaborative, cooperative and contextual mobile learning
* Pedagogical and social issues as well as cultural and regional 
differences in mobile learning
* Integration of mobile solutions in urban infrastructure
* Measurement, control, and evaluation of urban infrastructure by mobile 
solutions


*Paper Submission, Publication and Indexation*
* Authors should submit full papers (as Postscript, PDF, MSWord, or ODF 
file).
* The total length of a paper must not exceed 8 pages IEEE style 
(including tables, figures and references). IEEE style templates are 
available here.
* Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific 
merit and relevance to the conference.
* Submitted papers must be unpublished and not under review in any other 
conference or journal (submissions that violate this requirement will be 
regarded as self-plagiarism).
* Organizers reserve right to move accepted papers between FedCSIS events.
* Only papers presented at the conference will be included in the IEEE 
Xplore® database and submitted for indexation.
* Proceedings of the FedCSIS 2012 conference were indexed in the Thomson 
Reuters - Conference Proceedings Citation Index, where they will also be 
submitted in 2013.
* Furthermore, FedCSIS proceedings will be submitted for indexation to: 
DBLP Computer Science Bibliography, Inspec, Scirus, and other repositories.
* Extended versions of selected papers presented during the conference 
may be published as Special Issue(s) of journal(s)to be announced later.
