2011 Proceeding- Program Chairs:

It is our pleasure to welcome you to MobiArch 2011, the sixth edition of the MobiArch workshop series that focuses on architectural issues arising from mobility. The phenomenal adoption rate of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets has made mobility a pervasive characteristic of today's Internet. Effectively supporting mobile devices requires addressing issues such as decoupling location from identity, multi-homing, security, and energy efficiency. The workshop provides an interactive venue for researchers interested in exploring these issues.
This year's workshop received 14 papers, of which 7 were selected for inclusion in the program. We thank all authors who submitted their work. We also thank the members of the technical program committee who helped with the selection process through their reviews and discussions.
In addition to paper presentations, the program includes a panel discussion on maintaining connectivity to mobile devices. This a problem for which solutions were originally proposed over 15 years ago, and yet, it continues to attract attention from the research and engineering communities.
We hope that you will find this program interesting and thought provoking, and that the workshop will provide you with a valuable opportunity to share ideas with other researchers and practitioners from institutions around the world.

Saving mobile device energy with multipath TCP
Multipath TCP is a backwards-compatible TCP extension that enables using multiple network paths between two end systems for a single TCP connection, increasing performance and reliability. It can also be used to "shift" active connections from one ...
Opportunistic mobility with multipath TCP
Host mobility has traditionally been solved at the network layer, but even though Mobile IP has been standardised for 15 years, it hasn't been supported by operators. IP's double role as a location identifier and communication endpoint identifier brings ...
Using predictable mobility patterns to support scalable and secure MANETs of handheld devices
Mobile ad-hoc networks of wireless devices (MANETs) hold the promise of providing network services without traditional infrastructures that could fall victim to manipulation and censorship. Unfortunately, current MANET systems suffer significant ...
GSTAR: generalized storage-aware routing for mobilityfirst in the future mobile internet
The Internet is at a historic inflection point where mobile, wireless devices are becoming so dominant that core architectural changes are necessary to efficiently support them. This paper presents the high-level concepts and design decisions used to ...
SystemSens: a tool for monitoring usage in smartphone research deployments
By deploying several research applications, we found that capturing usage context (e.g., CPU and memory) is highly valuable for debugging and interpreting results, even if that context information appears unrelated to the application. We have developed ...
TailTheft: leveraging the wasted time for saving energy in cellular communications
A notion in cellular communications (e.g., GSM, 3G) is called Tail Time, namely the period of high power state after the completion of a transmission. This Tail Time can alleviate the overhead of switching from the low to the high power state, in case ...
ErdOS: achieving energy savings in mobile OS
The integration of multiple hardware components available in current smartphones improves their functionality but reduces their battery life to few hours of operation. Despite the positive improvements achieved by hardware and operating system vendors ...
