*INTRODUCTION*
The technologies of computing and communications have undergone a series of
evolutionary innovation over the past decades and improved the quality of
human life significantly. Computing and communications in the 21st century
faces an ever-increasing number of great challenges and revolutionary
developments. Ubiquitous Computing and Communications is a revolutionary
paradigm that aims to provide pervasive and reliable computing solutions
and communication services anytime and anywhere. This emerging technology
is built upon the rapid research and development advances in a wide range
of key areas including wireless and sensor networks, mobile and distributed
computing, embedded systems, agent technologies, autonomic communication,
and information security. Ubiquitous Computing and Communications has drawn
significant interests from both academia and industry and continues to
attract tremendous research efforts due to its promising new business
opportunity in information technology and engineering.

IUCC-2016 will be held on 14-16 December 2016 in Granada, Spain. The
conference offers an important international platform and brings together
the scientists, engineers, researchers, and students from academy and
industry all over the world to share their latest work, exchange
experiences and discuss the state-of-the-art challenges of ubiquitous
computing and communications. IUCC-2016 is soliciting original and
previously unpublished papers addressing research challenges and advances
towards the design, implementation and evaluation of ubiquitous computing
and communications technologies, systems and applications.
