MobiSys 2005, to be held June 6-8, 2005, in Seattle, Washington, seeks to present innovative, significant research in the area of mobile and wireless systems. This will be a 2.5-day conference, featuring refereed paper presentations, demos, and poster sessions; it will be co-located with several closely related workshops. The conference particularly values the practical experience gained from designing, building, and using mobile systems, applications, and services. MobiSys addresses broad systems issues in mobile computing. For a list of potential topics and detailed submission instructions, see http://www.usenix.org/events/mobisys05/cfp/sub_instrux.html The ideal MobiSys submission should present novel research that has resulted in the implementation or evaluation of running systems. Papers that describe the design of and experience with mobile system architectures are favored over those narrowly focused on low-level components. Please feel free to contact the Program Chairs at mobisys05chairs(a)usenix.org to determine appropriateness. Workshop Proposals As in the past, MobiSys will be co-located with several workshops for highly focused discussions of new and emerging topics. This year, we are accepting proposals for workshop topics. Proposals--no longer than a few pages--should identify the workshop theme, potential program chair(s), potential program committee members, and a list of focused topic areas comprising the workshop's scope.

At home, in a car or truck, at work or at play, Internet users want transparent internetworking of their systems and devices to provide them entertainment, information, and communications. This internetworking should be on-demand and should be set up with whomever or whatever users want, regardless of time or location. As a result, consumer networking is gaining increasing attention from industry, spawning a range of dramatically different solutions in different environments such as wireless, wireline, and power-line communications systems. These environments have their own strengths and challenges to overcome. The scope of consumer networking spans from the body area and personal area networks to home and wide area networks. In the not too distant future, we will see Ad hoc networks augmented with sensors sharing network information that enables devices and systems to seamlessly interact with Internet and wide area wireless systems such as WiFi, 3G and future 4G networks. This phenomenon, "Consumer Communications and Networking", has been attracting many researchers in diverse areas from networking to consumer electronics. The focus of this Special Issue is to present the latest approaches and technical solutions in the area of consumer and home networking. We solicit papers covering a variety of topics including, but not limited to: Ad-Hoc and Sensor Networks Body and Personal Area Networks Consumer Driven Applications and Systems for Networked Entertainment Consumer Network Architecture, Protocols, Management and Control Distributed Gaming Protocols and Systems Entertainment Networks Hybrid Network Architectures In-home and Inter-home Networking Integration and Interoperability Issues Last-Mile Network Technologies Multimedia Distribution Protocols Policy Support Programmable Networks and Mobile Code Platforms QoS Support and Performance for Consumer Networking Residential Gateways Security and Privacy for Consumer Networking Session, User and Device Mobility Thin Client Support Ultra Wideband (UWB) for Home Devices Vehicle Networks for Consumer Communications Wireless mesh and Wi-Fi for Home Networking Integration of wireless technologies for Consumer Electronics Only original and unpublished research papers will be considered.
