CALL FOR PAPERS

MobiArch 2020: 15th Workshop on Mobility in the Evolving Internet Architecture

In conjunction with ACM MobiCom 2020

21st September, 2020, London, United Kindom

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IMPORTANT DATES
Deadline for submissions: 15th May, 2020
Notification of acceptance: 30th June, 2020
Camera-ready Papers Due: 31st July, 2020
MobiArch Workshop Date: 21st September, 2020


SCOPE
MobiArch 2020 workshop will focus on the research and development of network and computing architectures for next generation mobile Internet. It will cover comprehensive and holistic, design, development and evaluation of novel architectures for mobile Internet systems, to enable new mobile services of broader importance (such as connected autonomous vehicles and systems, machine learning applications, augmented reality and virtual reality). Under the context of architectural research for the evolving mobile internet, the workshop will also examine, exploit and integrate the latest advances in mobile communications, mobile computing, networking technologies and network control.


MobiArch 2020 solicits submissions of original research from academia and industry that tackle the challenges and exploit recent advances in architectures and technologies for mobile Internet systems. In addition, it welcomes work-in-progress and position papers that describe original ideas, present new directions, or have the potential to generate insightful discussion.


TOPICS OF INTEREST

We invite submissions covering the aspects around system architecture, networking and computing support for the evolving mobile Internet (e.g. terahertz and cell-free communication, integrated space-earth networks, massive IoT, edge computing, autonomous cars and systems, distributed artificial intelligence, and network virtualization), including but not limited to:


- Novel architectures and protocols for mobility support at Internet protocol stack
- Mobile networking and computing architectures for 4G/5G, beyond 5G and 6G
- Mobile network architecture design and management with data analytics and machine learning
- Joint communication, computing, networking and computing architecture design
- Software defined and cloud–assisted mobile networking
- Network virtualization in mobile Internet architecture
- Mobile internet architectures and technologies for connected autonomous vehicles, UAV, cooperative ITS
- Mobile internet architecture for massive and low-power IoT access, and smart cities
- Mobile Internet architectures and protocols for mobile edge computing/intelligence, virtual and augmented reality
- Mobile data sensing and fusion for big M2M data
- Information-Centric Networking for mobile networks and mobile computing
- Seamless mobility and mobility-prediction-enhanced techniques in heterogeneous networks
- Future Internet architecture for efficient mobility support
- Security and privacy technologies such as block-chains for mobile Internet and computing
- Cognitive network design for mobile systems and applications
- Social, economic, scalability, and deployment issues for new mobile internet architectures
- Field trials, deployment and evaluation of innovative mobile Internet architectures


SUBMISSION
All paper submissions will be handled electronically via the EasyChair submission website. The submission Web page for MobiArch'20 is https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mobiarch20

Authors should prepare a PDF version of their full paper. Submitted papers must be no more than 6 pages long (for regular papers) and no more than 3 pages long (for position papers), in two columns and with 10 point or larger font size, and must fit properly on US "Letter"-sized paper (8.5x11 inches). Margins should be of 1 inch on all edges (top, bottom, left, and right) of each page.

Please direct any questions about the paper submission process to the Workshop Chairs, Dr Jianhua He (j.he@essex.ac.uk) and Dr Aline Carneiro Viana (aline.viana@inria.fr).
