The category of Research Demonstrations offers a unique opportunity to showcase research prototypes, and to discuss them with an international audience of experts in pervasive computing. To promote this, PERVASIVE 2006 is seeking interesting and engaging demonstrations of pervasive computing technologies. Proposers are invited to submit Research Demonstrations under the general topics of the conference. Relevant topics include (but are not limited to) the following:

• Device, communication, and interaction technologies for pervasive computing.
• Pervasive sensing, perception and inference for context technologies.
• Software infrastructure, middleware and frameworks for pervasive computing systems and environments.
• Design, implementation and evaluation of pervasive systems and applications.
• Deployment and management of pervasive systems and services and emerging industrial and other scenarios.
• Pervasive computing interaction models, user interfaces and demonstrating effective user experience.
• Enabling Privacy, security and trust in pervasive computing.

We encourage combining a research demonstration with a short paper that describes the contribution and as an anchor point for future reference. Submissions must be in Adobe PDF format, up to 4 pages in length and conform to the Springer-Verlag LNCS style. All demonstration submissions will be handled using an electronic submission system. Please submit your demonstration paper to http://edas.info/home.cgi?c=4653, and select Demo as the submission track. If you do not already have an account with EDAS you can register.

The authors should also provide a brief sketch of the planneddemonstration on an additional page. Specific requirements concerning space, power, network, and security should be stated. It is planed that wireless internet access will be provided.

Accepted contributions will be published in the adjunct proceedings of PERVASIVE 2006 which will be electronically available from the web-site. The demonstrations will be introduced during a plenary session of the conference, and there will also be a reception dedicated to the presentation of posters and demonstrators.
