Call for Demos and Exhibits 

If you have a cool demo of your research advances or technological 
capabilities, come and showcase it in MobiCom 2013! We encourage research 
demonstrations and exhibits from both academics and industry.

Demonstrations should be innovative research prototypes that show new research 
related to the practice of mobile computing or wireless and mobile networking, 
in the general areas of interest related to the MobiCom conference. Exhibits 
can be advanced product prototypes or technology breakthroughs that are 
relevant to the MobiCom audience. Please refer to the main conference 
introduction and CFP for the general areas.

Please submit a proposal of your demo or exhibit. It should be a summary or 
extended abstract describing the research to be presented, maximum 3 pages in 
US letter size (8.5 x 11 inches) with fonts no smaller than 10 point size, in 
PDF file format. Make sure the proposal will include:

- The names, affiliations, and email addresses of the authors.
- Equipment to be used for the demo.
- Space needed and setup time required.
- Additional facilities needed including power and Internet/wireless access.

        New This Year 
        
        
It is highly encouraged that each proposal includes a video clip showcasing the 
demo. The video clip, no more than 60 seconds, should give a good idea of what 
the demo is about and how it would look like. If you do include a video clip, 
it will help the committee better understand and evaluate your proposal. If 
your demo is accepted, the video will be shown on the conference website and 
during the conference to draw people to your booth. Videos can be submitted by 
including a link to the video (e.g., hosted at YouTube).

All submissions will be reviewed by a committee. Once the demo is accepted, we 
will post the submission (summary and video) on the conference website and 
publish it in the main proceedings and the ACM digital library.

All demos will be considered for the Best Demo Award. A committee will decide 
about the winner on-site after evaluating all demo presentations.

 
        Submission Instructions 
        
        
In order to submit your Demo or Exhibit proposal to Mobicom 2013 for review, 
please proceed through the following steps:

Visit https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mobicom2013 (create an 
EasyChair account, if you don't already have one)
After login, select "New Submission" from the Menu on top.
Fill in the Authors and Title (make sure it starts with "Demo:")
In the Abstract field, enter a publicly accessible link to the video of your 
demo.
Upload the Demo Summary (in PDF) and press Submit.

        Important Dates 
        
        
Submissions deadline: 
        July 3, 2013 (11:59 PM GMT)

Call for Posters and SRC 

By following its long and fruitful tradition of poster presentation/discussion, 
ACM MobiCom 2013 solicits submissions for its Posters Program. The program will 
consist of a Posters Session that will be scheduled during the conference in 
addition to a three-days Posters interaction space which will be available from 
October 1 to October 3, to ensure maximum visibility.

Proposals for poster presentations featuring early research work and 
preliminary results are strongly encouraged and solicited. The MobiCom 2013 
Poster Session will provide an excellent opportunity for initial feedback on 
early research results and for gaining early visibility of ongoing projects.

To ensure maximum visibility and to garner high interest in the Poster Session 
from all MobiCom attendees, each accepted poster will have the opportunity to 
deliver a fast elevator pitch. Each poster presenter will get a one-minute to 
overview and stir interest in her/his poster (3 slides presented in PechaKucha 
mode - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PechaKucha). In addition, each presenter 
will have the opportunity to have a webpage, which will be linked to from the 
MobiCom Posters & SRC program page, to post additional details including 
possibly a short video presentation.

Posters are solicited in all areas of mobile computing and wireless networking. 
Particular areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Architectures, algorithms, and protocols for cognitive wireless networks and 
their integration in the next generation Internet
- Architectures, protocols, and algorithms to cope with mobility, limited 
bandwidth, limited power and/or intermittent connectivity
- Coexistence and synergic exploitation of heterogeneous wireless networks
- Design, implementation, and evaluation of mobile systems and applications
- Experimental large-scale testbeds for mobile networks
- Fundamental understanding of mobile computing and wireless networking
- Green and energy-aware mobile systems and networking, e.g., for mobile 
wireless sensor networks and applications
- Integration and interworking of wired-wireless networks
- Internet of Things (IoT) and Cyber Physical Systems (CPS)
- Modeling, simulation/emulation, and measurement of mobile systems
- Next generation (beyond 802.11) wireless technologies and related systems and 
protocols
- Operating system and middleware support for mobile applications, systems, and 
networking
- Performance evaluation of mobile networks, protocols, and systems
- Security, privacy, and trustworthiness of mobile systems
- Techniques for ad-hoc, delay-tolerant, and spontaneous networking
- Vehicular (infrastructured and ad-hoc) networks and vehicular sensor 
applications

The ACM Student Research Competition (SRC) 
        
        

ACM MobiCom 2013 will host an ACM Student Research Competition (SRC) along side 
the Posters Program. Students submitting to the MobiCom 2013 Poster Session can 
opt to have their posters considered also by the SRC committee, if their 
posters are accepted. Selected competitors will receive up to $500 USD for 
their conference travel, depending on need, and will earn a chance to compete 
in the SRC Grand Finals. The winners will be recognized at the Annual ACM 
Awards Banquet. Competitors should be prepared to attend the Poster Session 
and, if selected for further competition, to give a short talk about their 
research projects. Winners of the MobiCom 2013 SRC will be announced at the 
conference. The Student Research Competition is open to graduate and 
undergraduate students whose submissions are accepted by the SRC committee. To 
be considered, complete a submission to the Poster Session and indicate that 
you would like to participate in the SRC by adding "[SRC]" in the subject line. 
Valid ACM student membership and student status as of the submission deadline 
are required for the lead student. For more information about the SRC 
competition, contact the SRC Chair Souvik Sen at souvik.senhp.com.
The SRC competition is fully sponsored by a generous donation from Microsoft 
Research. 

        Submission Instructions 
        
        
The posters should be submitted via email to the Poster Chairs: (Paolo 
Bellavista: paolo.bellavistaunibo.it ) and (Tamer Nadeem: nadeemcs.odu.edu ). 
The submission should be formatted as a paper or extended abstract describing 
the research to be presented in the poster and should be submitted as a PDF 
file of at most 3 pages, including all figures and references (formatted into 
the US letter size of 8.5 x 11 inches with fonts no smaller than 10 point 
size). The extended abstract must include the authors names, affiliations, and 
email addresses. Any submission should include the following:
Whether you would like the submission to be considered for the Student Research 
Competition, by adding "[SRC]" in the subject line
If you would like your submission to be considered for the SRC, there is the 
additional need to indicate that any of the student authors is an undergraduate 
student. Note that if any of the authors is a graduate student, then the 
submission will be considered under the graduate category
All poster submissions will be reviewed by the Posters committee. If your 
submission is selected for the Posters Session, you will receive information 
regarding the size of the poster board, etc., so that you can prepare and 
produce your poster. Easels and white boards will be provided by the 
Conference. Once your poster is accepted, we will include the abstract of your 
poster on the conference website and publish it in the main proceedings and the 
ACM digital library.

        Important Dates 
        
        
Poster submission deadline:
        July 3, 2013 (11:59 PM EST)
