ERCIM/NSF Strategic Workshop
Middleware for Mobile Systems
An EU-NSF workshop on "Middleware for Mobile Systems" will be held on
the 1 to 2 July 2002 in Vienna, Austria. The workshop is organised by
ERCIM, the European Research Consortium for Informatics and
Mathematics with the support of the US National Science Foundation and
the European Commission.
For information on other EU-NSF Strategic Workshops see Strategic Workshops - Shaping
future EU-NSF collaborations in Information Technologies.
The mission of the workshop, unlike a conference special session, is
to present and discuss future R&D directions, challenges, and visions
in this emerging area. During the concluding session and as a result
of the Workshop, a roadmap of this field of science and technology
will be defined and opportunities for major US-EU collaboration are to
be anticipated and proposed. On the long term, these recommendations
could be used by the NSF and the European Commission to set up related
research calls for proposals.
In this context the workshop participants are expected to give a
visionary view on what they consider as the most interesting and
challenging research topics in the field of Middleware for Mobile
Systems that could open new avenues for research and applications in
the future.
