Overview

With recent advancements in ubiquitous computing (smartphones, wearables, smart speakers etc.), ubicomp technology has deeply spread into our daily lives, including office work, home and housekeeping, health management, transportation, and even urban living environments. Furthermore, beyond the initial metrics commonly applied in computing, such as efficiency and productivity, the benefits that people (users) get from well-being-aware ubiquitous technology have been greatly emphasized in the recent years. Through the sixth "WellComp" (Computing for Well-being) workshop, we will discuss and debate the contribution of ubiquitous computing in users' well-being covering both physical, mental, and social wellness (and the combinations thereof), from the viewpoints of different layers of computing. Organized by a diverse international team of ubicomp researchers, WellComp 2024 will be hosted at Ubicomp/ISWC 2024 and will bring together researchers and practitioners from both academia and industry to explore versatile topics related to well-being and ubiquitous computing.
