ACM MobiCom/MobiHoc 2010: Call for
Demos and Exhibits

If you have a cool demo of your ideas, come and showcase it in
MobiCom/MobiHoc this year in the

student demo competition and win the best demo awards! See instructions
below.

Important Dates

Submissions due: July 9, 2010
(5pm EST)

Notification of Acceptance: August 2, 2010

Proposals for research demonstrations and exhibits are strongly
solicited. Demonstrations should be innovative research prototypes that
show new research related to the practice of mobile computing or
wireless and mobile networking.

Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Architectures, protocols, and algorithms to cope with mobility,
limited bandwidth, limited power and/or intermittent connectivity
* Applications and services for mobile users
* Mobile cloud computing
* Fundamental aspects of mobile computing and wireless networking
* Integration and interworking of wired and wireless networks
* Location-dependent applications and protocols
* Modeling, measurement and simulation aspects of mobile networks
* Mobile ad hoc and sensor networks
* Operating system and middleware support for mobile computing and
networking
* Performance of mobile and wireless networks and systems
* Security, privacy, and fault-tolerance of mobile/wireless
systems
* Wireless access technologies for mobile nodes (e.g., multi-radio
and mesh systems, personal area networks)
* Implementations and experimental mobile systems

Student Demo Competition

This year all research demo submissions with a student lead will be
automatically entered into a Student Research Demo competition. The goal
of this competition is to encourage students to build systems and
prototypes validating their research results, and through the demo, make
it more accessible to the wider community. During MobiCom, demos will be
judged by an evaluation committee and one will be selected for the Best
Demonstration Award. Demos will primarily be judged on originality,
execution, and illustration of the core research ideas.

Submission Instructions

Submit a summary of the proposed demo via email to mobicom10-demos @
ee.duke.edu. The proposal should be maximum of 3 pages, including
figures if needed, and in PDF format only. Please indicate "MobiCom 2010
Demo Submission" as the subject of the email. All submissions will be
acknowledged.

The summary should include:

* The names, affiliations, and email addresses of the authors.
* Goals of the demo and the basic idea that it supports.
* Equipment to be used for the demo.
* Space needed and setup time required.
* Additional facilities needed including power and
Internet/wireless access.
* Indicate a URL with any extra information, if needed.
* Indicate whether the demo is eligible for the student demo
competition by identifying the lead student(s) and their affiliations.

We encourage the submission of demos and exhibits that will be of
interest to the community from researchers in academia and industry.
