The great diffusion and the growing demand for advanced mobile devices involves billions mobile phone users worldwide. Mobile devices are becoming central means for service delivery and future mobile services will very likely come. In fact, mobile devices can make services available anywhere, anytime, and in any format.

That is, models, methods and technologies for the Mobile Communication, Mobile Web and services design are relevant discussion issues for providing the state of the research and new ideas and solutions in the research area.

The objectives of the M2AS Workshop are to promote discussion on concepts, models, methods, languages and systems for designing mobile pervasive services, their technological standards and architectural solutions.

List of topics

The M2AS’09  Workshop invites researchers, engineers, services developers to propose their research and works in the field of mobile devices and services. Papers may deal on method, models, case studies, practical experience and technologies. Topics of the workshop include but are not limited to:
