Mobile Commerce (M-Commerce) comprises applications and services that are accessible from Internet-enabled mobile devices. It involves new technologies, services, and business models. Whilst it is different from traditional e-Commerce it can also be considered as an extension of it since, among other reasons, it makes e-Commerce available, in a modern way, to new application areas and to a new set of customers. Mobile devices, such as smart phones or tablets, open the door to a great assortment of new applications and services.  Location and other context information is used to tailor services according to the needs of the user. The number of mobile services available is constantly increasing and evolving towards manageable and practical applications, for private use as well as in an enterprise context.

The goal of TAMOCO is to bring together researchers and practitioners that work in different aspects of mobile services in the context of business applications. This includes the incorporation of web services and cloud-based services, autonomic mobile computing, and the integration and interplay with urban systems and other contexts. Additionally, application areas such as mobile learning and extended enterprise are covered.

Topics include, but are not limited to:

·         Analysis and Design of mobile web-service based applications

·         Design and programming techniques for web-service based systems

·         Applications of emergent self-organization

·         Autonomic middleware for mobile computing

·         Mobile learning theories

·         Games and simulation in mobile learning

·         Pedagogical and social issues in mobile learning

·         Collaborative, cooperative and contextual mobile learning

·         Measurement, control, and evaluation of urban infrastructure by mobile solutions

·         Integration of mobile solutions in urban infrastructure

·         Standards and norms for the design and application of mobile technologies and urban services

·         Languages and methods for mobile based information systems

·         Concepts and methods for evaluating problems and the usefulness of mobile technologies

·         Enabling technologies for ubiquitous systems

·         Security, privacy and legal issues

·         Tools, technologies and platforms for mobile applications

·         Implementation of autonomic behavior to support mobile computing and commerce

·         Governance models of mobile computation
