SIGMOBILE

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

SIGMOBILE is the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Mobility of Systems, Users, Data and Computing, which specializes in the field of mobile computing and wireless networks and wearable computing.

Conceived in early 1995, ACM SIGMOBILE started out as an organization that fostered research in the "field of mobility and tetherless ubiquitous connectivity". It was founded as a provisional SIG on June 13, 1996, gaining permanent status on October 12, 2000. On February 8, 2005, the SIGMOBILE Chapter Program was launched. The NTU Singapore chapter became the first Student Chapter, and the Sydney, Australia Chapter became the first Professional Chapter.

SIGMOBILE sponsors MobiCom, the International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking, and MobiHoc, the International Symposium on Mobile Ad Hoc Networking and Computing. SIGMOBILE publishes a quarterly journal, Mobile Computing and Communications Review (MC2R) and the annual Proceedings of the MobiCom International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking.
