After the successful ACM MobiOpp 2007 and ACM MobiOpp 2010, the
organizing committee is excited to invite you to take part in the
Third International Workshop on Mobile Opportunistic Networks that
will be held March 15-16th, 2012 in Zurich, Switzerland at ETH.

Opportunistic Networking is one of the emerging communication
paradigms in wireless mobile communications. Opportunistic networks
are commonly defined as a type of networks where communication is
challenged by sporadic and intermittent contacts as well as frequent
disconnections and reconnections, and where the assumption of the
existence of an end-to-end path between the source and the destination
is relinquished. The aim of MobiOpp 2012 is to provide a high profile,
leading edge forum for researchers and engineers to present their
latest research in the field of mobile opportunistic networking. In
particular, MobiOpp 2012 strongly encourages submissions of
experimental work.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Opportunistic, Delay-tolerant and Hybrid Networks
- Mobile Urban Sensing and Crowdsensing
- Novel Architectures, Middleware, Prototypes and Testbeds
- Routing, Dissemination and Caching in Opportunistic Networks
- Analysis of Opportunistic Protocols
- Security, Trust, Privacy and Cooperation in Opportunistic Networks
- Social-aware Opportunistic Networking
- Anti-censorship/surveillance opportunistic communications
- Opportunistic Applications (e.g., opportunistic social networking,
disaster and emergency situations, healthcare, communication
in remote regions)
- Mobility models for opportunistic networks

Submitted papers should be novel and should not be currently under
review, whether in shorter, longer, or the same form. We accept paper
submissions of **8 pages** and demo and poster abstracts of 2 pages at
http://edas.info/N11119
. Further formatting requirements are available on the website. The
workshop proceedings will be published by ACM.
