Introduction
============

Embedded and ubiquitous computing is an exciting new paradigm that
provides computing and communication services all the time and
everywhere. Its systems are now affecting every aspect of our life to
the point that they are hidden inside various appliances. This emergence
is a natural outcome of research and technological advances in embedded
systems, pervasive computing and communications, wireless networks,
mobile computing, distributed computing and agent technologies, etc.
Scope and Interests
===================

The EUC 2008 conference provides a forum for engineers and scientists in
academia, industry, and government to address all resulting profound
challenges including technical,
safety, social, legal, political, and economic issues, and to present
and discuss their ideas, results, work in progress and experience on all
aspects of embedded and ubiquitous
computing.

Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
************************************************
Embedded Computing Track:
*Embedded System Software & Optimization *Embedded System Architectures
*Hardware/Software Co-design & Design Automation *Real-time & Operating
Systems *Application-specific Processors and Devices *Power-aware
Computing *Sensor Networks *System/Network-on-Chip *Reconfigurable
Computing Applications
*Cyber-physical systems *Others and emerging new topics

*************************************************
Ubiquitous Computing Track: *Pervasive Computing & Communications
*Middleware and Peer-to-Peer Computing
*Internet Computing and Applications
*Multimedia and Data Management
*Human-computer Interaction
*Network Protocols
*Wireless Communication & Networks
*Mobile Computing
*Agents and Distributed Computing
*Security and Fault Tolerance Applications
*************************************************

Submission Information
======================

Submissions should include abstract, 5-10 keywords, and the e-mail
address of the corresponding author and be in PDF format. Each
submission must not exceed 8 pages in the IEEE 8.5''x 11'' two-column
format with 10-12 point font (Template: DOC or LaTeX), including tables
and figures. Each submission should be regarded as an undertaking that,
should the submission be accepted, at least one of the authors must
attend the conference to present the work in order that the accepted
paper can be put into digital library. The final version of an accepted
paper will be limited to 8 pages in IEEE proceeding format.
