The workshop seeks to focus on three areas that are currently generating considerable interest: Metro and access networks, where optical and broadband wireless technologies are vying to realize true broadband connectivity, promising abundant, inexpensive, and readily available bandwidth; A second emphasis will be on Applications, such as Storage, Gaming and Computing that seek to exploit high speed metro area connectivity; A third area will be on Wireless networks and architectures. The realization of cost effective metro and access networks requires both theoretical investigations (including new architectures, concepts, and economic and service models) and experimentation (including prototypes, testbeds, and applications). Single-track presentations are planned to stimulate technical exchange among researchers and practitioners with a broad interest in networking; we specifically welcome submissions on both optical and broadband wireless networks and relevant experimental activities. Submissions should be short, focused, and provide a forum for discussion of new and interdisciplinary ideas. Novel and speculative ideas are particularly encouraged. Extended abstracts are solicited on any LAN/MAN topic including, but not limited to, the following: * Broadband Wireless Access * Emerging access networks: * WiFi: roaming services, Ethernet in the First Architectures & Performance Mile, EPONs, FTTx * Resilient Packet Rings * Measurement, modeling * SANs and Storage over MANs and performance evaluation * IEEE standards (802.3ah, * QoS, dynamic bandwidth .16, .17, .20) allocation, capacity * Optical WDM networks based placement/provisioning on packet, burst, and flow * Routing Issues switching * Network survivability, * RFid protocols & performance self-healing rings * Topology adaptation, * Network security reconfigurability * Pricing, multi-vendor * Network management interoperability related to LANs/MANs * Applications over MANs * Heterogeneous Wireless (Gaming, Distributed Computing) and Ad-Hoc Networks * Sensor Networks The 14th LAN/MAN workshop will be held from September 18th to 21st, 2005 in the picturesque city of Chania, Crete, Greece (www.chania.gr). The technical interactions at the workshop will be enhanced by the unique beauty of the city of Chania which boasts a rich cultural heritage and ancient monuments.

Innovations in content delivery systems continue to have strong impact in the Internet, resulting in a surge of interest in both content delivery applications and the web/network infrastructure that supports novel content delivery applications. Starting from basic caching, research in content distribution has broadened its scope to cover practically all areas related to the intersection of content and networking, including such areas as peer-to-peer, data grid computing, utility and edge computing, application networking, wireless content delivery, pervasive networking and content computing. Building on the success of the previous WCW meetings, WCW10 plans to form a strong technical program that covers the newest and most interesting areas relating to content delivery services as they move through the Internet. Call for Papers: The workshop solicits technical papers related to Internet content delivery, caching and replication, and content services networking. Particular areas of interest include, but are not limited to: -Content delivery architectures -P2P file sharing, storage, and content delivery -Caching and content distribution for mobile wireless systems -Web caching and replication (protocols and architectures) -Edge services and dynamic content caching -Multimedia content distribution -Overlay networks for content delivery -Content placement and request routing -Empirical studies of deployed content delivery systems -Security in content distribution systems -Wide-area upload and content gathering -Novel applications and paradigms for caching and content distribution General Chair: Ernst W.

The Program Committee will judge submitted papers on relevance, significance, originality, clarity, and technical merit. Do not submit product marketing material or material that is previously published or under review elsewhere. Accepted papers will be either published in the LNCS Series of Springer-Verlag or as IEEE Proceedings. At least one author of each accepted paper must attend the workshop to present their work. Please submit technical papers and synopses in PDF format through the submission form on the conference Website. Proposals for Panels: WCW panels bring together researchers from industry and academia. These panels are an important element of WCW. This year we plan on having a panel that discusses "Ten years of Content Distribution". Please send other panel proposals in plain text by e-mail to the Program Chairs (iwcw05(a)eurecom.fr). _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu http://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/tccc

While most of these wireless technologies are deployed independently for now, the service providers surely intend to own and operate overlaid heterogeneous wireless systems, which integrate multiple wireless technologies with partially overlapped coverage areas and provide ubiquitous network service to mobile users. Recent advances in reconfigurable computing have greatly advanced the design of soft radios, which enable the communication with many different radios with only a reconfiguration in software parameters. The maturation of soft radio technology is becoming one of the most important milestones for seamless integration of the heterogeneous wireless network. Serving as the "glue", the soft radio technology has its niche in in two folds: (1) the network infrastructure can be built upon soft radio, where the base stations are tunable to different frequency bands and serve as general access points for various mobile hosts (MHs), e.g., cellular handsets, laptops, and PDA's (Personal Digital Assistants); and (2) the MHs may employ soft radio, and accordingly, get access to various wireless systems (such as wireless LAN, cellular, IEEE 802.20, and IEEE 802.16), providing ubiquitous service for mobile users. An important design issue is to capitalize on the recent achievement in soft radio technology for providing improved and more efficient connectivity and service in heterogeneous wireless networks. With this special issue we aim at bringing together state-of-the-art contributions in this emerging area of soft radio-enabled heterogeneous wireless networks. We are seeking for papers reporting novel research or commercial/industrial experiences. These papers should be original, unpublished, and not currently under review by other conference, workshop, or journal. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: - System optimization - Efficient spectrum allocation and management - Dynamic network topology discovery and optimization - Smart handoff and inter-system signaling - Quality of service in the heterogeneous networks - Routing and load balancing - Mobility management - System modeling and performance evaluation - Cognitive radio and testbed design * PUBLICATION SCHEDULE: o MANUSCRIPT DUE: March 1, 2005 o ACCEPTANCE NOTIFICATION: May 31, 2005 o FINAL MANUSCRIPT DUE: July 1, 2005 o EXPECTED PUBLICATION DATE: First Quarter, 2006 * SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: Authors should email an electronic (Postscript or PDF) copy of their papers to Dr. Hongyi Wu, wu(a)cacs.louisiana.edu, by Feb. 1, 2005. Submissions should be limited to 20 double space pages excluding figures, graphs and illustrations. If email submission is impossible then six (6) copies of the paper (double-sided if possible) should be sent by the due date to: Dr. Hongyi Wu The Center for Advanced Computer Studies (CACS) University of Louisiana at Lafayette P.O. Box 44330 Lafayette, LA 70504-4330 Tel: 337-482-5779 All submissions will be reviewed following the standard procedure. --Hongyi ======================================================================== Dr. Hongyi Wu, Assistant Professor The Center for Advanced Computer Studies (CACS) University of Louisiana (UL) at Lafayette P.O.
