ACM
MobiCom
and
MobiHoc
are the premier international conferences dedicated to
addressing challenges emerging from mobile, wireless and ad hoc networking and
computing. Following 2007, MobiCom and MobiHoc will be jointly held again in 2010.
The two conferences will run in parallel, and will have many joint plenary sessions
(such as the keynote, panels, and welcoming reception).
ACM MobiCom/MobiHoc 2010 will hold multiple one or half day workshops on
Monday or Friday of the conference week in Chicago, IL, co-located with the main conferences.
We invite you to submit workshop proposals on any topic related to
mobile communications and wireless networking before
February 19, 2010 (5:00 PM EST)
to the Workshop Chairs. The ideal workshop proposal should focus on a specific area,
be of current interest, and be able to attract a number of high-quality
submissions. Proposals on emerging topics guaranteed to generate significant
interest in the community will be selected. MobiCom/MobiHoc 2010 will have
some returning and some new workshops.
A workshop proposal should be no more than
3 pages, containing at least:
- A draft call for papers (as complete as possible)
- The workshop deadlines (internal and external)
- Names and affiliations of main organizers and tentative composition of the committees
- Motivation and rationale for the workshop
- Expected number of submissions and participants
- Prior history of this workshop, if any (including # submissions, # accepted papers and # attendees)
We need this information no matter whether or not these workshops would be
held in conjunction with MobiCom or MobiHoc. If the workshop was co-located
with another conference, please include details and a brief
description why MobiCom/MobiHoc is more appropriate.
Email proposals in PDF (ONLY) to both workshop chairs, including
"MobiCom/MobiHoc 2010 Workshops" in the subject line.
ACM MobiCom provides basic support for the workshops in the form of
registration, publicity, a meeting room, and help in arranging meal
service at the ACM MobiCom conference. To promote flexibility, the details
including the format of the workshop
and the form of submissions and presentations
are left to the organizers of each workshop.
Because workshops are meant to foster discussions
on emerging topics of interest among the
broader SIGMOBILE community, workshops are encouraged to be inclusive
rather than exclusive in their solicitation of material. In addition,
targeting more interactive forums such as presentations of short papers
(and posters) rather than traditional presentations of full-length papers
can be more conducive to successful workshops.
