Mission

The purpose of ACM SIGMOBILE is to promote research and development by bringing together researchers and practitioners and fostering interestin the mobility of systems, users, data, and computing. SIGMOBILE will address the above spectrum of topics, which share one common theme -- mobility. The group’s technical scope reflects the emerging symbiosis of portable computers and wireless networks, addressing the convergence of mobility, computing and information organization, including access, services, management, and applications.
