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

by Jan 10th, 2013. Please make sure that you receive an electronic
