 HotMobile 2013 is pleased to provide travel support to selected graduate 
students to broaden the participation in our workshop. Travel support will 
provide up to $700 per student to help cover the cost of the student's travel, 
lodging, meals, and workshop registration fees. We encourage the participation 
from women, underrepresented minorities, and persons with disabilities. Some of 
the applicants will be selected to play visible roles in the organization and 
running of ACM HotMobile 2013, including writing and publishing a workshop 
summary in ACM MC2R and/or registration desk duties. Travel support is made 
possible by a grant from SigMobile.  

Applications for the travel award should be sent electronically as a PDF 
attachment to the HotMobile 2013 Travel Award Committee 
(hotmobile2013.travel<mailto:hotmobile2013.travel>@gmail.com<http://gmail.com/>)
 by Dec 31st, 2012. Please make sure that you receive an electronic 
confirmation of your submission. An application should consist of the student's 
CV, a letter from the student, and letter from the student's advisor.

The letter from the student should include:

   1. A brief summary of research interests and accomplishments to date.
   2. A description of areas reflected in the HoMobile 2013 program that would 
impact the student's research.
   3. A note on how assuming any additional roles at HotMobile 2013 would 
impact the student.

In addition, the student's advisor should send a letter of recommendation to 
the committee. It should include:

   1. Confirmation that the student is a Ph.D. candidate in good standing.
   2. The suitability of HotMobile 2013 program to the student's research area.
   3. Ways in which attending the workshop would benefit the particular student.
   4. The strengths and potential contributions of the student.
   5. The financial needs of the student in traveling to HotMobile 2013.

Applications will be reviewed by the HotMobile Travel Awards Committee, and the 
awards will be announced prior to the workshop. Alternates will be notified in 
the event that a recipient declines. Late registration fees will be waved for 
travel grant awardees.
