HotMobile 2011

The Twelfth Workshop on Mobile Computing, Systems, and Applications

Phoenix, AZ, USA

March 1-2, 2011

Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE

Preliminary Call for Papers

ACM HotMobile 2011, the twelfth Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications continues the series of highly selective, interactive workshops focused on mobile applications, systems, and environments, as well as their underlying state-of-the-art technologies. HotMobile's small workshop format makes it ideal for presenting and discussing new directions or controversial approaches.

We solicit submissions of position papers that focus primarily on applications and systems and that propose new directions of research, advocate non-traditional approaches to old (or new) ideas, or generate controversy and discussion. We particularly look for position papers containing highly original ideas in the following topic areas, although papers describing other challenges unique to or exacerbated by mobility are also welcome:

* Operating system and distributed system support for mobile computing

* Coordination, aggregation, and spontaneous interaction of mobile devices

* Novel applications, environments, and devices supporting mobility

* HCI issues related to mobile computing

* Security and privacy of mobile computing

* Management, configuration, and deployment of systems supporting mobility

Submissions describing new lower-level technologies are welcome if they focus on how the technology is being used or integrated into a system or application.

HotMobile 2011 will be a highly interactive workshop. Submissions will be judged based upon originality, technical merit, topical relevance, and likelihood of leading to insightful discussion at the workshop. Presentation at HotMobile is a good way to get early feedback on research ideas that are a year or more from submission as a full conference paper to the ACM MobiSys conference or other high-quality conferences. Submitting a full-length paper on the same topic to MobiSys in less than a year is unlikely to involve a sufficient increment of work and maturity of ideas.

To encourage an atmosphere conducive to participation, attendance will be limited to 70 participants. Authors of submitted papers and accepted demo proposals will be given first priority, with others able to register on a space-available basis.

Important Dates

Paper submission due: October 15, 2010

Acceptance notification: December 16, 2010

Revised papers due: January 21, 2011

Paper submissions are due by 23:59 PDT on Friday October 15, 2010.

Paper Submission Instructions

Paper submissions are due on Oct 15th 2010 at 23:59:59 PDT (Pacific

Daylight Time). Submissions should contain 6 or fewer

U.S. letter pages in PDF format, including all references, figures and

tables. Papers should use the standard ACM template, available at:

http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates

The workshop proceedings will be published by the ACM.

As is customary, papers must not have been published elsewhere and may

not be simultaneously under submission at another venue. Papers

accompanied by nondisclosure agreement forms are not acceptable and

will be returned to the author(s) unread. As customary with the

scientific peer review process, submissions will be handled as

confidential material during the review.
