The 25th Annual International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking
2019
It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the proceedings of ACM MobiCom 2019, the International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking, the twenty-fifth edition in a series of annual conferences sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE. The conference is being held in Los Cabos, Mexico, from October 21 to October 25, 2019. This is the first time that this highly selective and premier conference, or any ACM SIGMOBILE conference or workshop, has been held in Mexico. This is also the first time that it has been held in an all-inclusive resort. Being the silver jubilee anniversary of the conference, we wanted to hold it in a special venue where attendees could celebrate and form deeper connections with each other and the work that they do. ACM MobiCom 2019 includes two keynote talks, a Test of Time Award talk, regular paper sessions with 55 paper talks, which is more than ever before, seven workshops, four tutorials on current and exciting topics by field experts, and a poster and demo session that includes the ACM Student Research Competition. The ACM MobiCom 2019 program keynotes are given by world experts working in very impactful fields that have not been core to MobiCom, but we predict will have great influence on our work in the future. The ACM MobiCom 2019 organizing committee thanks the Keynote speakers - Professors Maja Mataric (University of Southern California) and Carlos Guestrin (University of Washington and Apple). The ACM MobiCom 2019 organizing committee is composed of a strong mix of 28 industry and academic researchers with diverse backgrounds. Through their efforts, a stellar technical program has been put together for this year's conference. We are thankful to the TPC co-chairs, Professors Shyam Gollakota (University of Washington) and Xinyu Zhang (University of California, San Diego). Thanks to their efforts, the ACM MobiCom 2019 technical program includes 55 regular papers - the most ever - on diverse and exciting topics in mobile communications.
