CALL FOR PAPERS: MobiSys 2004
The Second International Conference on Mobile Systems, Applications, and Services
Jointly sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE and The USENIX Association In cooperation with ACM SIGOPS
Hyatt Harborside in Boston, Massachusetts, USA June 6-9, 2004
http://www.sigmobile.org/mobisys/2004/
IMPORTANT DATES Paper submissions due: October 31, 2003 Notification of acceptance: January 30, 2004 Poster, Demo, Video Proposal: March 5, 2004 Camera-ready final papers due: April 9, 2004
OVERVIEW
MobiSys 2004 seeks to present innovative, significant research in the area of mobile systems. This will be a 2.5-day conference, featuring refereed paper presentations, tutorials, demos, videos, and poster sessions. This conference builds on the success of the first MobiSys conference held in San Francisco, http://www.sigmobile.org/mobisys/2003/, which featured 23 high caliber research papers and many interesting posters and demonstrations. The conference particularly values the practical experience gained from designing, building and using mobile systems, applications, and services.
TOPICS
The conference addresses broad systems issues in mobile computing. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Design, implementation, and evaluation of mobile systems * Middleware and service architectures for mobile applications * Data management for mobile applications * Disconnected and weakly connected operation * Proxies and data adaptation * Mobile agents * Operating systems for small devices * Infrastructure support for mobility * Security, privacy, authorization, and billing * System-level energy management for mobile devices * Wearable and handheld devices in the context of system design * Personal mobility * Personal-area networks and systems * Resource discovery of mobile services * Systems for location awareness and determination * Application interfaces and services supporting the mobile user * Systems support for mobile robots * Experience with mobile systems
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 such as the device hardware or the routing, link, or physical network layers. Please feel free to contact the Program Chairs at mobisys_pcchairs@acm.org to determine appropriateness. An award will be given at the conference for the best paper.
WHAT TO SUBMIT
Submissions should be full papers, 1214 single-spaced 8.5" × 11" pages, including figures, tables, and references, two-column format, using 10-point type on 12-point (single-spaced) leading. Submissions will be judged on originality, significance, interest, clarity, relevance, and correctness. Accepted papers may be shepherded through an editorial review process by a member of the program committee.
MobiSys, like most conferences and journals, requires that papers must not be submitted simultaneously to any other conference or publication, that submissions must not be previously published, and that accepted papers must not be subsequently published elsewhere. Papers accompanied by non-disclosure agreement forms are not acceptable and will be returned to the author(s) unread. All submissions will be held in the highest confidentiality prior to publication in the Proceedings, both as a matter of policy and in accord with the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976.
HOW TO SUBMIT
Authors are required to submit full papers by October 31, 2003. All submissions to MobiSys 2004 must be electronic, in PDF or PostScript. Detailed submission instructions will be posted on the conference web site: http://www.sigmobile.org/mobisys/2004/.
POSTER, DEMO, AND VIDEO SESSIONS
Do you have interesting work you would like to share, or a cool idea that is not ready to be published? Poster sessions are for you! Poster sessions, scheduled during the technical sessions, introduce new or ongoing work. Demos and videos of working systems and applications are also encouraged. The MobiSys audience will provide valuable discussion and feedback. We are particularly interested in presentations of student work. To submit a poster, demo, or video, please consult the conference web site for instructions. Proposals should be received by March 5, 2004.
