International Workshop on Mobile Opportunistic Networking (MobiOpp2010).
Doctoral students working in areas related to opportunistic networking and
computing are solicited to submit an extended abstract comprising a
summary of their research findings, work in progress and planned research.
The forum will be a platform for PhD students to interact both with their
peers as well as experienced researchers from industry. The forum will be
organized as a poster session preceded by a '1-minute madness' introduction
by each student.

Current Ph.D. students, as well as researchers who have completed their
Ph.D.dissertations since May 2009, are encouraged to submit extended

of the advisor and others may be acknowledged in the extended abstract.
Submissions will be reviewed to ensure quality and relevance. Authors of
accepted submissions are expected to travel to MobiOpp 2010 to present their
poster at the PhD Forum.

The best presentation at the Forum, will receive an award sponsored by
Elsevier Publications and there is likely to be travel assistance for some
students.Accepted extended abstracts will appear in conference proceedings.
