The Second International Symposium on Ubiquitous Networking (UNet 2016)
May 30-June 1, 2016
Casablanca
Call For Papers
UNet is an international scientific event that highlights new trends and findings in hot topics related to ubiquitous computing/networking. This second edition will be held on June 01-03, 2016, in the fascinating city of Casablanca, Morocco. UNet'16 is technically sponsored by IEEE Morocco Section and IEEE COMSOC Morocco Chapter.
Ubiquitous networks sustain development of numerous paradigms/ technologies such as distributed ambient intelligence, context-awareness, cloud computing, wearable devices, and future mobile networking (e.g., B4G and 5G). Various domains are then impacted by such a system, one cite security and monitoring, energy efficiency and environment protection, e-health, precision agriculture, intelligent transportation, home-care (e.g., for elderly and disabled people), etc.
