Descrizione HotMobile'19
Welcome to the twentieth edition of the International Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications - HotMobile 2019. This is a special year for HotMobile as it is the 25th anniversary: in 1994, the first workshop in this series was held in Santa Cruz, CA. In the past 25 years, Mobile Computing has profoundly changed the world and our life. By 1994, Personal Computing had recently emerged as the giant of the computing industry; Microsoft was still working toward Bill Gates' dream of a computer on every desk and in every home; GSM, the second generation (2G) of cellular data networks, was being deployed. People had to wait for two more years for the first Nokia Communicator, arguably the first smartphone. A lot of people were working on wireless local-area network but the first 802.11 protocol would be released only three years later. Today, Mobile Computing is Personal Computing. We carry around mobile devices in various form factors that are more powerful by orders of magnitude than the PCs of that era; and our mobile devices are connected with wireless broadband faster than best home and office Internet back then by orders of magnitude.
