==================== Workshop ====================
== Workshop Guidelines ==
The ideal workshop proposal will focus on a timely and emerging topic and be able to attract a number of interesting and high-quality contributions that spark discussions in an informal setting. The goal of the workshop papers is primarily to stimulate interactive conversations and inspire new research ideas. Proposals on emerging or disruptive topics that are likely to generate significant interest in the community will be selected.

MobiCom 2024 will likely feature a mix of some returning and some new workshops. We encourage workshops that address compelling and growing fields of study. Topics should be grounded and clearly relate to the ACM MobiCom community, and its core areas of interest (e.g., wireless networking and mobile computing). However, we anticipate workshop proposals will also introduce and connect to a set of topics of broader importance, including but not limited to: joint communication and sensing, autonomous cars/drones, Internet of Things (IoT), healthcare and medical domains, wearable technologies, safety/security/privacy, satellite networks, emerging wireless technologies and networks, distributed ledgers and cryptocurrencies, machine learning/artificial intelligence, diversity and ethics, technology issues for developing regions, and novel radio/hardware/processor architecture technologies.

== Workshop Proposal Submission Instructions ==
The proposal should be no longer than three pages and should include at least the following:
- The name of the workshop.
- The name, address, and a short bio (up to 200 words) of each organizer (up to three).
- A motivation and rationale that includes a brief description of the technical issues to be addressed, and why those issues are timely.
- The list of names and affiliations of potential program committee members.
- The planned format of the workshop, including the length of the workshop (half day or full day), and a strategy to facilitate lively discussions and attendee involvement.
