2021, the Twenty-second International Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and
Applications continues the series of highly selective, interactive workshops
focused on mobile applications, systems, and environments, as well as their
underlying state-of-the-art technologies. HotMobile's small workshop format
makes it ideal for presenting and discussing new directions or controversial
approaches.</span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Gulim",sans-serif"><span></span></span></p>

submissions of papers that (1) focus primarily on systems and applications and
(2) propose new directions of research, advocate non-traditional approaches to
old (or new) ideas, or generate controversy and discussion. We especially
encourage papers that identify fundamental open questions, advocate a new
approach, offer a constructive critique of the state-of-the-art, debunk
existing assumptions, report unexpected early results, report on promising but
unproven ideas, or propose new evaluation methods. Novel ideas need not be
supported by full evaluations; well-reasoned arguments or preliminary
evaluations suffice. The program committee will explicitly favor early work and
papers likely to stimulate reflection and discussion over a “6-pages conference
paper.”<span></span></span></p>
