The 13th Annual International Workshop on Mobile Computing

?? ?Systems and Applications (HotMobile 2012)



?? ???Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE

--

??? ?February, 2012

??? San Diego, CA, USA

? ???http://www.hotmobile.org/2012/



ACM HotMobile 2012, the Thirteenth International 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 2012 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.



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.



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

For more submission guidelines, please visit the conference website.

 Subject: SEES Fellows Program
 

 Colleagues,
 
 A quick update:  NSF has just issued another of its SEES solicitations -- 
 calling for NSF SEES Fellows --
 
 I?m sending this email to inform you of a new program solicitation just 
 released by NSF ?
  
 NSF Science, Engineering and Education for Sustainability Fellows - NSF SEES 
 Fellows
  
 http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=504673
 A sustainable world is one in which human needs are met equitably without 
 harm to the environment, and without sacrificing the ability of future 
 generations to meet their needs.  Meeting this formidable challenge requires 
 a substantial increase in our understanding of the integrated system of 
 society, the natural world, and the alterations humans bring to Earth.  
 NSF's Science, Engineering, and Education for Sustainability (SEES) 
 activities aim to address this need through support for interdisciplinary 
 research and education.
 
 SEES postdoctoral fellows will receive up to 3 years of funding to conduct 
 research, establish partnerships, and advance their professional 
 development. 
  
 The Proposal deadline is December 5, 2011.
  
 General inquiries regarding the NSF SEES Fellows program should be made 
 toseesfellows at nsf.gov.
  
 Please share this information widely.
 
 Erwin
