IEEE PerCom 2005 will be the third annual conference
on the emerging area of pervasive computing and communications aimed
at providing an exciting platform and paradigm for all the time,
everywhere services. This emergence is a natural outcome of the
tremendous advances in wireless networks, mobile computing, sensor
networks, distributed computing, and agent technologies. PerCom
2005 will provide a high profile, leading edge forum for researchers
and engineers alike to present their latest research in the field
of pervasive computing and communications. Proposals to organize
Workhops are also invited. PerCom 2005 will also feature industry
exhibits and demonstrations.
