PhD Forum
The PhD Forum provides a friendly and supportive environment for doctoral students to present and discuss their dissertation research both with their peers and with a panel of experienced researchers from academia and industry. In addition to providing feedback and advice, this forum will provide an opportunity for students to network as well
as to practice presenting their research clearly and concisely.
$1,000 Google Best Presentation Award will be given to the best presentation at the Ph.D. Forum.
Submission deadline: March, 15, 2012
Ph.D. Forum Co-Chairs
Maria Gorlatova, Columbia University
Caleb Phillips, University of Colorado at Boulder

Next generation mobile computing for dynamic personalised travel planning
Mobile apps have the potential to take 'personalised travel planning' to another dimension where context sensitive, real-time information can be provided to the individual traveller, directly from source. Of particular interest impacting on future
Government policy is to what extent mobile apps can effect behavioural change and bring about the desired 'nudges' towards sustainable travel. The workshop aims to bring together academics, researchers and practitioners from the transport policy, management, travel behaviour/modelling disciplines, along with the mobile computing community.
Vision statement submission deadline: 23rd March 2012
Program Co-Chairs
Rajesh Balan, Singapore Management University
Eddie Wilson, University of Southampton
Tom Cherrett, University of Southampton

VANET 2012 - The Ninth ACM International Workshop on VehiculAr Inter-NETworking, Systems, and Applications
The Ninth ACM International Workshop on VehiculAr Inter-NETworking, Systems, and Applications (VANET) is pleased to begin an association with ACM MobiSys in 2012, following years of success at ACM MobiCom. With a track record of
bringing together key researchers from academia and industry, VANET 2012 will cover a widening range of research topics related to vehicular networking applications, services and systems. The scope includes research on fundamental communication problems, design and implementation of vehicular systems and applications, as well as related topics such as the implications of VANETs on transportation efficiency and safety, liability issues, standardization efforts, and spectrum assignment.
VANET Co-Chairs
John Kenney, Toyota InfoTechnology Center, USA
Javier Gozalvez Sempere, University Miguel Hernandez de Elche, Spain

HotPlanet 2012 - The 4th ACM International Workshop on Hot Topics in Planet-Scale Measurement
The HotPlanet workshop is designed to discuss the issues around collecting mobility and other wireless network traces at a planet-wide scale. Thus, following three successful editions of the workshop at ACM MobiSys 2009, 2010, and 2011, the fourth HotPlanet workshop will not only challenge the community to collect large-scale human mobility traces but also to propose novel mobility data processing and knowledge discovery techniques.
Full paper and demo submission deadline: March 23, 2012
HotPlanet Co-Chairs
Aline Carneiro Viana, INRIA, France
Ahmed Helmy, University of Florida, US

1st ACM Workshop on Mobile systems for Computational Social Science
Mobile systems will represent a key foundational component of the emerging discipline of computational social science. The goal of this one-day workshop is to bring together researchers working or interested in mobile systems for social analysis and applications. We wish to build a lively forum to propose and discuss recent advances in designing, implementing and evaluating this emerging class of mobile systems. The workshop will be open to contributions from researchers belonging to different communities (computer science, engineering, social sciences, etc.) tackling these challenging research problems from
various complementary perspectives.
Chairs
Cecilia Mascolo, Computer Laboratory, University of Cambridge, UK
Mirco Musolesi, School of Computer Science, University of Birmingham, UK
P. Jason Rentfrow, Faculty of Politics, Psychology, Sociology and International Studies, University of Cambridge, UK

The Third ACM Workshop on Mobile Cloud Computing and Services (MCS)
Mobile cloud computing refers to an infrastructure where data storage and data processing happen outside of the mobile device enabling a new class of applications previously not possible, e.g. context-aware mobile social networks. The scope of the MCS workshop will encompass system and networking topics such as mobile social networks, device virtualization, notification services, location services, and scalable mobile cloud computing platforms.
Paper submission deadline: April 6, 2012
