International Journal of Pervasive Computing and Communications

Aims & Scope

The International Journal of Pervasive Computing and Communications (IJPCC) is multi-disciplinary and inter-disciplinary vehicle to discuss the future where computers and computing devices will be available naturally and unobtrusively everywhere, anytime, and by different means in our daily living, working, learning, business, infotainment environments.

Tremendous opportunities exist for novel services/applications that are more immersive, more intelligent, and more interactive in both real and cyber spaces.

IJPCC is thus a premier channel to share research in the emerging field of pervasive computing and communications including future directions and issues.

Its published research includes: experimental or theoretical results, novel algorithms, design methodologies, work-in-progress, experiences, case studies, and trend-setting ideas.
