About SIGMOBILE Awards

Recipients of the Distinguished Service Award are selected on the basis of value and level of services to the mobile computing and wireless communications community. The award recognizes contributions to ACM SIGMOBILE, its conferences, publications, or its local activities.

The Award for Outstanding Contribution to Research on Mobility of Systems, Users, Data and Computing is given by ACM SIGMOBILE to recognize an individual who has made a significant and lasting contribution to the research on mobile computing and communications and wireless networking. The contribution can be a single event or a life-time of achievement.

The SIGMOBILE RockStar award recognizes an individual who has made recent outstanding research or product contributions to the field of mobile computing during the early part of his or her career.

The SIGMOBILE Test-of-Time paper award recognizes papers that have had a sustained and significant impact in the SIGMOBILE community over at least a decade.

Each of our conferences recognizes the best paper submitted to the conference that year. The selection process for the awards are managed by each conference's annual organizers.

Papers of high quality and broad appeal will be selected from SIGMOBILE sponsored conferences and will be recommended for consideration for the Communications of the ACM Research Highlights section and published in ACM GetMobile.
