MobiSys 2004
seeks to present innovative, significant research in the area of mobile
systems. This will be a 2.5-day conference, featuring refereed paper
presentations, tutorials, demos, videos, and poster sessions. This
conference builds on the success of the first MobiSys conference
held in San Francisco, which featured 23 high caliber research papers and
many interesting posters and demonstrations. The conference particularly
values the practical experience gained from designing, building and using
mobile systems, applications, and services.

The conference addresses broad systems issues in mobile
computing. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Design, implementation, and evaluation of mobile systems
- Middleware and service architectures for mobile applications
- Data management for mobile applications
- Disconnected and weakly connected operation
- Proxies and data adaptation
- Mobile agents
- Operating systems for small devices
- Infrastructure support for mobility
- Security, privacy, authorization, and billing
- System-level energy management for mobile devices
- Wearable and handheld devices in the context of system design
- Personal mobility
- Personal-area networks and systems
- Resource discovery of mobile services
- Systems for location awareness and determination
- Application interfaces and services supporting the mobile user
- Systems support for mobile robots
- Experience with mobile systems
The ideal MobiSys submission should present novel research that has
resulted in the implementation or evaluation of running systems. Papers
that describe the design of and experience with mobile system
architectures are favored over those narrowly focused on low-level
components such as the device hardware or the routing, link, or physical
network layers. Please feel free to contact the Program Chairs at
mobisys_pcchairs@acm.org to determine appropriateness.

Submissions should be full papers, 12-14 single-spaced
8.5" × 11" pages, including figures, tables, and references,
two-column format, using 10-point type on 12-point (single-spaced)
leading. Submissions will be judged on originality, significance,
interest, clarity, relevance, and correctness. Accepted papers may be
shepherded through an editorial review process by a member of the program
committee.
MobiSys, like most conferences and journals, requires
that papers must not be submitted simultaneously to any other conference
or publication, that submissions must not be previously published, and
that accepted papers must not be subsequently published elsewhere. Papers
accompanied by non-disclosure agreement forms are not acceptable and will
be returned to the author(s) unread. All submissions will be held in the
highest confidentiality prior to publication in the Proceedings, both as a
matter of policy and in accord with the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976.

Authors are required to submit the abstract by October 31, and the
full paper by November 7, 2003. All submissions to MobiSys 2004 must be
electronic and in PDF. Detailed submission instructions are available here.
 Due to network and
web server problems before the original abstract submission and paper
registration deadline of October 31, we are allowing abstracts to be
submitted and papers to be registered up to the full paper submission
deadline of November 7.

Do you have interesting work you would like to share, or a cool
idea that is not ready to be published? Poster sessions are for you!
Poster sessions, scheduled during the technical sessions, introduce new or
ongoing work. Demos and videos of working systems and applications are
also encouraged. The MobiSys audience will provide valuable discussion and
feedback. We are particularly interested in presentations of student work.
To submit a poster, demo, or video, please send a proposal, one page or
less, to the poster session coordinator (umar@mit.edu) by
March 5, 2004.
