Handheld Computing
------------------
Handheld computing is a mobile computing paradigm that uses handheld
wireless devices (or mobile devices) such as cellular phones and Personal
Digital Assistants (PDAs) to accomplish various computing tasks. As
handheld devices continue to appear in many forms with diverse
functionalities, handheld computing will become the dominant computing
paradigm in many fields including education, enterprises, and healthcare.

The aim of this technical track is to bring together researchers and
practitioners who are active in this research area to meet and share their
experiences. Topics of interest include, but not limited to:

- Novel applications and services for handheld devices
- Handheld computing applications in education
- Handheld computing applications in healthcare
- Handheld computing applications in enterprises
- Middleware for handheld computing
- Interfaces and interaction techniques
- Design techniques for handheld computing
- Location-based applications and services
- Context-aware applications and services
- Databases for handheld computing
- Agents for handheld devices
- Content personalization
- Environments for handheld computing
- Security and privacy issues
