Use when deciding whether a project belongs at MobiCom or a sibling venue — testing whether the core contribution is a mobile/wireless-networking mechanism the SIGMOBILE flagship rewards, and routing platform, sensing, broad-networking, security, or ubicomp misfits to MobiSys, SenSys, SIGCOMM/NSDI, WiSec, or IMWUT before a cycle is committed.

# MobiCom Topic Selection

MobiCom is the ACM SIGMOBILE flagship for **mobile computing and wireless networking** —
the radio, protocol, and mobility side of mobile. The fastest way to waste a rolling
deadline is to submit a paper whose real contribution belongs one venue over. This skill is
a **fit and routing** tool, not a substitute for the current CFP scope list.

## The fit test

A MobiCom-shaped paper answers all four:

1. **Is the contribution a wireless or mobile-networking mechanism?** A protocol, a
   link/PHY-MAC technique, a routing or scheduling method, an RF-sensing capability, a
   measurement finding about mobile networks — something in the networking stack, not an
