Mobile Computing

This document includes the reading list for the mobile systems and applications course. This reading list was compiled so that various areas of mobile computing can be comprehensively covered. The papers to be presented in class are must-read. Other papers are optional but I encourage you to read them as well. This course was designed together with Prof. Youngki Lee at Seoul National University.
