[Tccc] Reminder Deadline Approaching: ACM MobiCom 2010 Call for Posters and Student Research Competition

Apologies in advance for potential duplicates that might be hitting your mailbox. Please consider submitting.


ACM MobiCom 2010 Call for Posters and the Student Research Competition
----------------------------------------------------------------------

ACM MobiCom 2010 solicits submissions for the Poster Session
to be held during the conference. Proposals for poster
presentations featuring early research work and preliminary
results are strongly encouraged and solicited. The MobiCom
2010 Poster Session will provide an excellent opportunity
for initial feedback on early research results. Posters are
solicited in all areas of mobile computing and mobile and
wireless networking at the link layer and above.

Particular areas of interest include, but are not limited
to, the following:
·Design, implementation, and evaluation of mobile systems
and applications
·Operating system and middleware support for mobile
computing and networking
·Fundamental understanding of mobile computing and wireless
networking
·Architectures, protocols, and algorithms to cope with
mobility, limited bandwidth, limited power and/or
intermittent connectivity
·Wireless and mobile techniques for delay-tolerant, mobile
ad hoc, and wireless sensor networks
·Security, privacy, and trustworthiness of mobile and
wireless systems
·Wireless access technologies (e.g. mesh systems, personal
area networks)
·Integration and interworking of wired and wireless networks
·Protocols exploiting novel technologies such as UWB, MIMO,
directional antennas, and software radios
·Techniques for dynamic spectrum use
·Architectures, algorithms and protocols for cognitive
wireless networks and their integration in the Internet
·Modeling, simulation, emulation and measurement of mobile
systems
·Experimental test-beds for mobile/wireless networks
·Performance evaluation of mobile and wireless networks,
protocols, and systems
·Next generation (beyond 802.11) wireless technologies and
related systems and protocols
·Coexistence of heterogeneous wireless networks

ACM Student Research Competition:

ACM MobiCom 2010 will host an ACM Student Research
Competition (SRC). Students submitting to the MobiCom 2010
Poster Session can opt to have their posters considered also
by the SRC committee. 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, give a
short talk about their research projects. Winners of the
MobiCom 2010 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. Current ACM student membership and student status as
of the submission deadline are required for the lead
student.

Submission Instructions:

The posters should be submitted to
mobicom10.poster@gmail.com. The submission should be
formatted as a paper or extended abstract describing the
research to be presented in your poster and should submitted
as a PDF file of at most THREE pages, including all figures
and references (formatted into the US letter size of 8.5 ×
11 inches with fonts no smaller than 10 point size). The
extended abstract must include the names of the authors,
affiliations and email addresses.

The submission should include the following:
·In the submission you would need to indicate you want 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, you would need to indicate 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 a committee. If
your submission is selected for the poster session, you will
receive information regarding the size of the poster board,
etc., so that you can prepare a poster for the poster
session. If your submission is selected for the Student
Research Competition (SRC), then during the poster session,
the committee will also evaluate your poster with the
additional criteria of oral and visual clarity.
Subsequently, the SRC committee will select up to three
finalists from the graduate and the undergraduate
categories. The finalists will be announced soon after the
poster session completes. All finalists will be invited to
deliver a formal presentation of their submitted work at the
conference. Based on these presentations, the SRC committee
will rank the finalists.

A selected subset of the accepted posters will be published
in the extended abstract format in a future MC2R issue.

Please note that if your poster is selected for the Student
Research Competition (SRC), you will need to attend the
conference, and if you are chosen as a finalist, you will
also be required to make a presentation at the conference.
Current ACM student membership and student status as of the
submission deadline are required for the lead student for
SRC submissions.

Important Dates:

Submissions Due: July 2, 2010 (11:59 pm EDT)
Notification of acceptance: August 2, 2010
