Call for Papers
WORKSHOP ON VIRTUALIZATION IN MOBILE COMPUTING (MobiVirt) http://mobivirt08.cs.duke.edu/
Held in conjunction with ACM/USENIX MobiSys 2008 Breckenridge, Colorado, USA June 17, 2008
The Workshop on Virtualization in Mobile Computing (MobiVirt) will bring together researchers and practitioners interested in virtual execution environments for mobile applications and systems. The workshop seeks original papers on virtualization at all levels of the mobile hardware and software stack. We are particularly interested in position papers that propose new directions of research, advocate nontraditional approaches to old (or new) ideas, or generate insightful discussion.
The workshop proceedings will be archived in the ACM Digital Library.
TOPIC AREAS OF INTEREST: * Virtual machine monitors for mobile devices * Application-level virtualization on mobile devices * Virtual machines for high-level languages on mobile devices * Abstractions for mobile shared-resource infrastructures (e.g. GENI slivers and slices) * Programming language support for virtualization suitable for mobile environments * Novel techniques and applications of interpreters on mobile devices * Virtualization for security, reliability, and isolation on mobile devices * Operating system support for virtualization on mobile devices * Applications of virtual wireless networks (e.g., Virtual WiFi) * Mobile applications that use virtualization in novel ways * Performance analysis and debugging for mobile virtual execution environments * Other experiences with mobile virtual execution environments
IMPORTANT DATES: * Abstract submission deadline: April 14, 2008, at 11:59pm EDT * Paper submission deadline: April 21, 2008, at 11:59pm EDT * Notification of acceptance: May 23, 2008 * Final papers due: June 6, 2008 * Workshop date: June 17, 2008
