UbiComp Gaming Workshop

This year's UbiComp 2005 conference will include a one-day workshop on Ubiquitous Computing, Entertainment and Games:

The theme of this workshop is ubiquitous computing entertainment, playful social networking, and games. Our goals are to provide a productive forum in which international researchers, members of the entertainment industry, game players, game designers, and game publishers can discuss key issues in ubiquitous gaming, present and future uses of ubiquitous computing that create compelling, playful and socially beneficial gaming experiences, and to facilitate an exchange of ideas that will allow ubiquitous games to break out of their current “niche” and into the mainstream.

The workshop will be September 11th, 2005 in Tokyo.
