MobiOpp 2010 - ACM/SIGMOBILE MobiOpp 2010 The Second International Workshop on Mobile Opportunistic Networking

Second International Workshop on Mobile Opportunistic Networking

ACM/SIGMOBILE MobiOpp 2010

http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/mobiopp2010/

Sponsored by ACM and SIGMOBILE

February 22-23, 2010, Pisa, Italy

MobiOpp 2010 will provide a high profile, leading edge forum for researchers
and engineers to present their latest research in the field of mobile
opportunistic networking. Real experimentation has proven to be a fundamental
methodology to evaluate opportunistic networking. Early prototyping is an
outstanding way to understand real user requirements and help adoption of
opportunistic networking paradigm by the mass market.

The demo session showing real-systems prototypes at work will naturally
complement the technical session, thus stimulating discussions among attendees.

Demonstration proposals from both academia and industry are sought.

HIGHLIGHTS
- Authors of all accepted demos will be invited to provide a SHORT DEMO PAPER

(3 pages) describing the demo features. Short demo papers will be included in

the MobiOpp proceedings.

- MobiOpp 2010 will grant a "Best Demo Award" based on both the technical

contribution and the innovation. The "Best Demo Award" is sponsored by

*EU FP6 ANA Project.*

- At least one author of each accepted demo is required to register and present

their demo at the conference.


Demo proposals must show a significant relevance to opportunistic networking.
Submissions should adhere to the ACM conference proceedings format and be no
more than three pages in length (including references, figures and tables, at
least 10pt font). For the format, please refer to the ACM conference
proceedings guidelines available at
http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-t....
All submitted papers will undergo a rigorous review process.

Demo proposals must describe the demo research framework, and what MobiOpp
attendees will be able to enjoy and experiment. The proposal MUST also include
the technical requirements for the demo. These pieces of information will be
taken into consideration, together with the technical value of the proposed
demo, in the review process, to ensure the demo feasibility within the MobiOpp
program and the potential impact on the attendees. Demo proposals must be
submitted as a SINGLE PDF FILE via e-mail to the demo co-chairs
(lgalluccio-AT-diit.unict.it and legendre-AT-tik.ee.ethz.ch),
with Subject: MobiOpp 2010 Demo Submission.

Authors will be encouraged to prepare a poster to illustrate their demo.

- Advanced technologies for enabling opportunistic communication
- Middleware services and agent technologies
- Mobile/wireless computing systems & services in opportunistic scenarios
