Demo Session
The IEEE Pervasive Computing and Communication (PerCom) conference is one of the premier scholarly venues in the areas of pervasive computing and communications. The PerCom Demo session provides a venue for the latest breakthroughs in pervasive computing to be presented live to the research community. Demos ranging from examples of working prototypes, novel applications, groundbreaking ideas, and live experiments related to PerCom are all welcome. In particular, we encourage demos from industrial researchers who are leading the way in pushing pervasive technology into the hands of the public.
A “Best Demo Award” will be presented based on research value, originality, and presentation.
Topics
Areas of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Anticipatory computing
- Big (Sensor) data
- Data Science for Pervasive computing

- Novel user interfaces and user interaction in pervasive systems
Submission Guidelines
Prospective contributors are expected to submit a demo proposal in the form of a short technical paper (no more than 3 pages) using the IEEE Templates (https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html). The short paper must illustrate the research contribution of the demo, the practical setup, and the technical requirements. Short demo papers will be included in the PerCom proceedings.
Demo proposal submission must be done via EasyChair (https://easychair.org/). If you do not have an EasyChair account, please, register first and create an account via the following link: https://easychair.org/account2/create
Once registered, use the direct submission link for PerCom 2025 (given below) and select “Demo Papers” track to submit papers for the Demo track. Paper submission will be active from September 5.
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=percom2025
The demo proposals will be peer-reviewed with a single-blind review process. The authors are required to include their names, affiliations and emails in the submission. The evaluation criteria include (1) extent and significance of a prototype conveying new research ideas or compelling novel applications; (2) relevance to PerCom; (3) potential impact on the audience; (4) quality and feasibility of the proposed implementation; (5) presentation quality.
At least one author of each accepted demo proposal is required to register and present their demo at the conference.
