CALL FOR PAPERS -- MobiCom 2013
http://www.sigmobile.org/mobicom/2013/index.html
**************************************

As the premier conference on mobile computing and wireless communication, 
MobiCom 2013 solicits papers that focus on the theory, system, practice and 
challenge of providing users with a successful mobile or wireless experience. 
This includes how mobile computing changes how people use their computer, 
computing resources and applications, as well the systems, services and 
technology enabling those applications. At its core, we expect papers to 
address issues related to mobile computing and communication challenges in the 
presence of various wireless and mobile networks, including but not limited to 
wireless LANs, cellular data networks, mobile social networks, delay-tolerant 
networks, sensor networks, personal area networks, vehicular networks, wireless 
mesh networks, and mobile ad hoc networks. Successful papers will address real 
research challenges through theoretical analysis, novel system design, as well 
as real-world measurement and deployment of mobile systems and applications.

MobiCom 2013 will be a diverse conference, and we strongly encourage the 
submission of mobile systems, experimental and theoretical papers. The program 
committee will evaluate each paper using metrics that are appropriate for the 
topic area. For example, a systems or experimental paper in the protocol area 
will be evaluated based on the innovations in the protocol design, practical 
implementation, and realistic evaluation, whereas a more theoretical paper may 
be evaluated mostly based on innovation within the design of the algorithm and 
its provable properties. At the same time, the evaluation of wireless and 
mobile networking technologies is challenging because of the significant impact 
that the physical environment has on performance. For this reason, all papers 
must carefully describe and justify the evaluation methodology that is used and 
identify its strengths and weaknesses.

The program committee will referee all papers, and accepted papers will be 
published in the conference proceedings.

Paper Submission Instructions 
All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Authors should prepare a 
PDF version of their full paper. Any papers that do not adhere to the following 
guidelines will be immediately rejected:
Maximum of 12 pages
Font size no smaller than 10 points
Double column format with each column having dimensions 9.25 inches ? 3.33 
inches, a space of 0.33 inches between the two columns, and with no more than 
55 lines of text per column
Fit properly on US letter-sized paper (8.5 inches ? 11 inches)
Detailed instructions on how and where to submit your paper can be found here.

All submitted papers will be judged based on their quality through double-blind 
reviewing, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. 
Detailed instructions to authors on preparing a double-blind manuscript will be 
posted here shortly. Authors' names must not appear anywhere in the paper or in 
the PDF file. Submitted papers must be original work, and a paper with 
substantial similarity must neither be already published, nor be currently 
under review for publication in any other venue. Please direct any questions 
about the paper submission process to the Program Co-Chairs at 
mobicom_pcchairsacm.org.

Best Paper Award 
All papers will be considered for the Best Paper Award. The program committee 
will select a number of candidates for the award among accepted papers. The 
winner will be selected at the conference, considering both the paper and the 
presentation. The winner will receive a plaque and a cash award.
 
Important Dates  
Abstracts submission due:
        March 8, 2013 (11:59 PM EST)
Paper submissions due:
        March 15, 2013 (11:59 PM EST)
Notification of acceptance:
        June 9, 2013
Camera-ready version due:

It is ACM policy (http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/copyright_policy) 
not to allow double submissions, where the same paper is submitted to more than 
one conference/journal concurrently. Any double submissions detected will be 
immediately rejected from all conferences/journals involved.
