Space-based and situated computing extends the pervasive computing vision of everyday objects communicating and collaborating to provide intelligent and context-aware information and services to users in larger geographical spaces. The ultimate goal is to build context-aware global smart space and location-based service applications that integrate information from independent systems (such as sensor, actuator or mobile information systems), which autonomously and securely support human activities. IJSSC provides a fully refereed international forum for publishing latest research in space-based and situated computing.

- Context-aware computing and intelligent networking
- Smart objects, labels, e-tags, RFID

Objectives
The objective of IJSSC is to serve as an effective vehicle for the dissemination of original research findings and advanced development results of interest in all areas of space-based and situated computing. It will also serve as a channel of communication between actors in space-based computing, government entities, digital and business organisms, which influence the way space-based and situated systems are deployed, sensed, made secure, etc.
Readership
IJSSC provides a vehicle to help professionals, academics, researchers and software developers working in the field of space-based and situated computing to disseminate information and to learn from each other's work.Contents
IJSSC publishes high quality, original research findings, state-of-the-art reviews, development best practices, book reviews, notes, and news on space-based and situated computing, towards progressively bridging the gap between real world and digital world. Special Issues devoted to important topics and trends on space-based and situated computing will occasionally be published.
