MobiSys 2012 - 10th Annual International Conference on Mobile Systems, Applications, and Services

MobiSys 2012 will continue the tradition of publishing top-notch research papers dealing with all aspects of mobile systems. MobiSys seeks original papers that take a broad systems perspective rather than focus narrowly on low-level components. The conference values results and insights obtained from working implementations more highly than those obtained solely from simulations. If you have any questions regarding relevance or other submission-related issues, please contact the program chairs at mobisys_pcchairs-AT-acm.org

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Experience with mobile applications, networks and systems
Innovative mobile and mobile sensing applications
Tools for building and measuring mobile systems
Software architectures for mobile devices
Infrastructure support for node mobility
System-level energy management for mobile devices
Data management for mobile applications
Operating systems for mobile devices
Support for mobile social networking and mobile Web
Security and privacy in mobile systems
Wearable computing and innovative mobile devices
Systems for location and context sensing and awareness
Mobile computing support for pervasive computing
Vehicular wireless systems
User interfaces and usability for mobile applications and systems
Personal-area networks and systems
Cyber foraging and resource discovery for mobile systems
Papers on work that is currently under review, whether in shorter, longer, or the same form, must not be submitted to MobiSys. Submission of a longer version of a published, not just accepted, workshop paper is encouraged if it includes significant new contributions. However, the authors must cite their workshop paper. Papers accompanied by nondisclosure agreement forms are not acceptable and will be returned to the author(s) unread. As is customary with the scientific peer review process, submissions will be handled as confidential material during the review process.

Selected outstanding papers may be fast-tracked as a special section of IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing.

Submissions should be full papers, up to 14 single-spaced 8.5" x 11" pages, including figures, tables, and references, in two-column format, using 10-point type on 12-point and single-spaced. Papers may use the standard ACM template, available at: http://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2009/sig-al.... The first page of each paper should include the names and affiliations of the authors, i.e., the submissions should not be anonymous. Submissions will be judged on originality, significance, interest, clarity, relevance, and technical correctness. Papers may be conditionally accepted and shepherded by a member of the program committee, with final acceptance determined by consent of the shepherd.
