  • Abstract
    The 12th International Symposium on Wearable Computing (ISWC) was held in Pittsburgh in September 2008. It is one of the longest-running conferences focusing on aspects of pervasive and mobile computing. With over 60 submissions, the program committee selected eight long papers, seven short papers, and nine posters for the conference (a 26 percent acceptance rate for long papers). Sessions, which were presented over two days, covered location mapping, mobile phones and human interfaces, activity recognition, activity support, and power and system integration.
