The development and availability of new computing and communication devices,
and the increased connectivity between these devices, thanks to wired and wireless networks,
are enabling new opportunities for people to perform their activities anywhere and anytime.
Furthermore, due to the high penetration rate of such devices by the users, these devices are
becoming so pervasive that most users will take them for granted.

Generally known as Ubiquitous Computing (UbiCo), the vision of UbiCo is to push computing out
of conventional desktop computers into environments characterized by embedded computers and
transparent forms of interactivity. Considerable reductions in prices of devices and network
usage are finally making ubiquitous computing a reality.
Ubiquitous computing and networks have received a significant and sustained research interest
in terms of designing and deploying novel applications/services.

The UbiCoNet workshop aims to provide researchers who share similar research interests to meet
and address new research challenges and initiatives that concern Ubiquitous Computing (UbiCo)
and Networks (Net).

The workshop program will focus on new research challenges and initiatives, and will allow
authors to present new and emerging trends in ubiquitous computing and networks to dedicated audiences.
