15th IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications
Kona, Big Island, Hawaii, USA, 13/03/2017–17/03/2017
IEEE PerCom, now in its fifteenth year, is established as the premier annual scholarly venue in the areas of pervasive computing and communications. Pervasive computing and communications have evolved into highly active areas of research and have found their way to many current commercial systems, due to the tremendous advances in a broad spectrum of technologies and topics including wireless networking, mobile and distributed computing, sensor systems, ambient intelligence, and smart devices.
PerCom is going all the way to Hawaii Big Island, famous for its breathtaking beaches, volcanoes, and natural parks. PerCom 2017 will provide a leading edge, scholarly forum for researchers, engineers, and students alike to share their state-of-the art research and developmental work in the broad areas of pervasive computing and communications.
