Proceedings of the
2nd International Workshop on
Information Management for Mobile Applications
Message from the Workshop Chairs
Mobile devices pose tremendous challenges to the design and implementation of information sys-
tems suited for mobile environments. While users expect similar functionality on their smart-phone
as provided on their laptop or desktop computer, the hardware and communication platforms are
still limited. Especially, data-intensive mobile applications require new ways of data management,
processing, and analysis. Crucial issues include energy-efficiency, limited CPU power and storage,
real-time processing, small displays, and communication costs.
The International Workshop on Information Management for Mobile Applications (IMMoA’12)
targets to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to present, share, and discuss insights,
advancements, and challenges in technologies and mechanisms which support the management of
mobile, complex, integrated, distributed, and heterogeneous data-focused applications.
The workshop aims in particular at the challenges of managing complex data and data models
in a mobile context. Mobile data management has become an important research area in the
field of data management. Therefore, the 38th International Conference on Very Large Databases
provides an interesting forum to discuss recent advancements in mobile data management research.
The limitations but also new opportunities of mobile devices initiated new research topics which
are addressed in this workshop.
We received more than ten high quality submissions of which we could accept five as full papers
and and one as short paper. The papers have been peer-reviewed by three to four reviewers each.
The accepted papers discuss data management techniques for distributed mobile applications
and peer-to-peer systems, integration of distributed mobile data sources, mechanisms for privacy
preservation, and context-based systems. The workshop program is completed by an invited talk
entitled “Dynamic Context Management for Mobile Applications” given by Prof. Dr. Daniela Nick-
las from Oldenburg University.
We hope that the workshop initiates inspiring and fruitful discussions and that the second edition
will be as successful as the first workshop held in 2011. We would like to thank the DFG Research
Cluster Ultra High-Speed Mobile Information and Communication (UMIC, http://www.umic.
rwth-aachen.de) at RWTH Aachen University, Germany, for their support in organizing this
event. Furthermore, we would like to thank the reviewers for their good work.
