Proceedings of the 6th ACM international workshop on Data engineering for wireless and mobile access

Welcome to MobiDE'07 in Beijing! This is the sixth of a successful series of workshops that aim to bring together the data management, wireless networking, and mobile computing communities. This year's workshop, held in conjunction with SIGMOD 2007, continues its tradition of being the premier forum for researchers and technologists to discuss the state-of-the-art, present research results, experiences and contributions, and setting future directions in data management for mobile and wireless access. It is very fitting to have MOBIDE 2007 in Beijing, one year before the Olympic capital is engaged in a very ambitious process of enabling extensive tourist information to mobile users through the Olympia 2008 project. The workshop program presents new and controversial research ideas so as to foster interaction among researchers from around the world. The call for papers attracted 28 submissions. All submissions were reviewed by at least 3 members of the Program Committee. Many of these submissions were of very high quality, making the selection process quite competitive. As a result, 9 submissions were accepted as full papers, and 2 submissions that reported on promising works in progress were accepted as poster papers.
