Abstract
The 3rd International ACM Workshop on Data Engineering for Wireless and Mobile Access (MobiDE 2003 for short) took place on September 19, 2003 at the Westin Horton Plaza Hotel in San Diego, California in conjunction with MobiCom 2003. The MobiDE workshops serve as a bridge between the data management and network research communities, and have a tradition of presenting innovations on mobile as well as wireless data engineering issues (such as those found in sensor networks). This workshop was the third in the MobiDE series, MobiDE 1999 having taken place in Seattle in conjunction with MobiCom 1999, and MobiDE 2001 having taken place in Santa Barbara in conjunction with SIGMOD 2001.
