<div>The 16th International Conference on Mobile Systems and Pervasive Computing<br>
August 19-21, 2019<br>
Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada <br>
http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/mobispc-19/<br>
------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
Mobile Systems and Pervasive Computing (MobiSPC) have evolved into an active area of research and development. This is due to the tremendous advances in a broad spectrum of technologies and topics, including wireless networking, mobile and distributed computing,
sensor systems, RFID technology, and the ubiquitous mobile phone. MobiSPC-2018 solicits papers that focus on the theory, systems, practices and challenges of providing users with a successful mobile or wireless experience. This includes how mobile computing
changes how people pervasively use their computers, computing resources and applications, as well the systems, services and technologies enabling those applications.<br>
<br>
MobiSPC-2019 will provide a leading edge, scholarly forum for researchers, engineers, and students alike to share their state-of-the art research and developmental work in the broad areas of pervasive computing and mobile systems.<br>
