ACM MobiCom 2027 — International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking
by ACM SIGMOBILE
ACM's flagship mobile computing and wireless networking conference, with physical and embodied AI now first on its call for papers.
About This Event
ACM MobiCom 2027, the International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking, runs October 18-22, 2027 in Athens, Greece, under ACM SIGMOBILE. It is the main research venue for mobile systems, wireless networking and sensing, and it uses a two-cycle submission model: the summer cycle closed in September 2026 and the winter cycle dates are still marked TBD. The 2027 call for papers opens with physical and embodied AI for mobile systems (world models, foundation models, physics-inspired learning), followed by machine learning applied to mobile and wireless systems: on-device ML, edge AI, federated and decentralized learning, and domain adaptation. Next-G and satellite networking, mmWave and terahertz communication, joint communication and sensing, mobile health and wearables, ultra-low-power systems, edge infrastructure, and mobile security and privacy are also in scope. The conference includes workshops; the venue within Athens has not been announced.

Topics & Focus Areas
Who Should Attend
- ✓Mobile and wireless systems researchers
- ✓Edge AI and on-device ML engineers
- ✓Telecom and network R&D leaders
- ✓CTOs of IoT and connected-device companies
- ✓PhD students and faculty in networking and systems
- ✓Industrial research labs working on sensing and 6G
Why Attend
Edge AI, on-device inference and AI-driven sensing get worked out at MobiCom years before they show up in a vendor roadmap. If you run R&D for telecom, devices, automotive or industrial IoT, the papers and workshops here show what can actually run on a phone, a vehicle or a battery-free sensor, and they put you in front of the academic and industrial lab teams you would recruit or fund. Use it to set your 2028-2030 bets on edge models, 6G sensing and federated learning against peer-reviewed results, so you are not relying on marketing claims.
Event Features
- ✓Physical and embodied AI for mobile systems track (world models, foundation models, physics-inspired learning)
- ✓Applications of machine learning to mobile and wireless systems (on-device ML, edge AI, federated learning, domain adaptation)
- ✓Advanced sensing and perception systems (multimodal sensing, localization, joint communication and sensing)
- ✓Wireless communication and networking (next-G, satellite, vehicular, underwater and robotic networks)
- ✓Security and privacy of mobile and wireless systems
- ✓Measurements and deployment papers covering production networks, datasets and benchmarks
- ✓Co-located workshops
What Makes This Unique
- ★Physical and embodied AI is the first topic on the 2027 call for papers, ahead of classic wireless networking
- ★Rated CCF-A, one of the top venues in networking and mobile computing
- ★Two submission cycles a year, with an early-reject round and a rebuttal period before final decisions
- ★The call explicitly rules out deadline extensions and desk-rejects placeholder abstracts or 'TBD' titles
