-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [CfP] GI/ITG KuVS Fachgespräch "Energiebe wusste Systeme und Methoden" Date: Tue, 31 May 2005 14:19:39 +0200 From: Falko Dressler <dressler(a)INFORMATIK.UNI-ERLANGEN.DE> Reply-To: Mailing List der GI FG 3.3.1 "Kommunikation und Verteilte Systeme" <KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE> Organization: University of Erlangen To: KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE !!!Terminverschiebung!!! ============================================================== GI/ITG KuVS Fachgespräch „Energiebewußte Systeme und Methoden“ 11./12. Oktober 2005, Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg Aufruf zur Einreichung von Beiträgen ============================================================== Energie ist eine kritische bzw. sogar die kritischste Ressource bei vielen modernen mobilen Rechensystemen und deren Anwendungen vom Laptop über das Mobiltelefon bis hin zu Sensornetzwerken. Energiebewußtsein und energiegewahres Arbeiten sind für mobile Systeme die Grundvoraussetzung. Somit stellt dieses Arbeitsgebiet einen wichtigen Bereich der aktuellen Forschung im Bereich Systemsoftware (Betriebs- und Kommunikationssysteme) dar. Insbesondere entstehen, getrieben durch immer kleinere und mobilere Endgeräte, neue Anwendungsszenarien mit hohen Anforderungen an Verfügbarkeit, Langlebigkeit, Adaptivität und Selbstorganisation. Forschungsgebiete ----------------- Betriebssysteme: Einzig das Betriebssystem kennt alle strukturellen Eigenschaften der darunter liegenden Hardware wie auch der laufenden Anwendungen, die implizit durch die Aktivierung von Hardwarekomponenten Energie verbrauchen. Wegen dieser Vermittlerrolle konzentriert sich die Forschung auf Betriebssystemstrategien, die durch Wissen über die Gesamtheit der internen Abläufe den Energieverbrauch wirksam beeinflussen können. Das Betriebssystem kann dabei die Hardwarekomponenten in den jeweils für das Gesamtsystem optimalen Betriebsmodus versetzen und die Verweildauer in den jeweiligen Betriebsmodi durch eine energiebewußte Aktivitätensteuerung beeinflussen. Ein Betriebsmodus mit reduzierter Energieaufnahme impliziert dabei in der Regel eine reduzierte Geschwindigkeit bzw. eine höhere Zugriffsverzögerung. Rechnernetze: Mobile Netze zeichnen sich durch die Nutzung von Radiowellen als Übertragungskanal aus. Funkübertragung ist bei hohen Datenraten und/oder großen Reichweiten sehr teuer in Bezug auf die benötigt Energie für die Transmission. Basierend auf der eingesetzten Technologie für die Übertragung und den genutzten Protokollen, kann die Anzahl der Sende- und Empfangszeit minimiert werden. Dies stellt einen wesentlichen Beitrag zu energiebewußter Kommunikation dar. Kommunikationsprotokolle: Aufbauend auf den eingesetzten Übertragungstechniken, lassen sich die Protokolle der Datenkommunikation für energiebewußte Funktion anpassen. Sogenanntes Cross-Layer-Design hilft, Verzerrungs- und Störeffekte zwischen den Protokollen der Sicherungs-, Netzwerk- und Transportschicht zu vermeiden bzw. zu minimieren. Neue Kommunikationsparadigmen helfen in hochmobilen Netzen den Kommunikationsaufwand für Statusverwaltung und Selbstorganisation der Netze zu vermeiden. Middleware: Mit der zunehmenden Vernetzung mobiler und eingebetteter Systeme ist das energiebewußte Arbeiten von Basisfunktionalität sogenannter Middleware-Dienste, wie Kommunikation und Vermittlung, unabdingbar. Insbesondere kann auf dieser Schicht nicht isoliert gearbeitet werden, sondern es sind schichtenübergreifende Umsetzungen der Anwendungsanforderungen auf Middleware-Funktionalität, den Mechanismen des zugrunde liegenden Betriebssystems und den Kommunikationsdiensten zu entwickeln. Querschnittsthema aller Forschungsgebiete ist das energiebewußte Arbeiten. Ziel des Fachgesprächs soll es unter anderem sein, Forschungsinhalte zwischen den einzelnen Fachgebieten miteinander zu verknüpfen und auf diesem Weg neue Synergieeffekte zu schaffen, die helfen, gerade die Querschnittsbelange Energieeffizienz und allgemeine Ressourcenverwaltung zu optimieren. Inhalte des Fachgesprächs ------------------------- Unter dem thematischen Schwerpunkt energiebewußte Systeme und Methoden sind Beiträge zu allen relevanten Themengebieten erwünscht. Dazu gehören unter anderem aber nicht ausschließlich: • Betriebssystemunterstützung • Kommunikationsmethoden • Protokollentwurf • Simulationstechniken • Schichtenübergreifende Entwürfe energiebewußter Systeme • Unterstützung von energiebewußtem Arbeiten durch Hardware Beiträge -------- Beiträge sollen als Kurzfassungen (extended abstracts) 2-6 Seiten im Springer LNCS-Format eingereicht werden. Es werden Beiträgen in deutscher und englischer Sprache angenommen. Die angenommenen Beiträge werden als technischer Bericht publiziert. Weitere Informationen werden unter http://www7.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/~dressler/fg-energie/ bereitgestellt. Einreichung als PDF bitte an Falko Dressler (dressler(a)informatik.uni-erlangen.de). ----------------------------------------------- Wichtige Daten: Frist für die Einreichungen: 16.9.2005 Benachrichtigung: 4.10.2005 Tagung: 11./12.10.2005 ----------------------------------------------- Organisation ------------ Dieses Fachgespräch wird von Falko Dressler organisiert. Die Fachgespräche unterstehen einem Leitungsgremium bestehend aus Dr. Falko Dressler (Universität Erlangen), Dr. Christian Becker (Universität Stuttgart), Prof. Dr. Frank Bellosa (Universität Karlsruhe) und Prof. Dr. Dirk Timmermann (Universität Rostock). Aufgrund einer Terminkollision mit der Jahrestagung der GI-Fachgruppe Betriebssysteme haben wir uns entschieden, das Fachgespräch auf Oktober zu verschieben. Dies hat den gleichzeitigen Vorteil der zeitlichen und örtlichen Nähe zum Fachgespräch „Systemsoftware für Pervasive Computing“, welches auch in Erlangen stattfinden wird. -- Dr.-Ing.

K. Edwin **** Submission Deadline --- Oct. 1, 2005 **** ======================================================== Cooperation between devices in wireless networks has been identified as one of the key technology enablers required to facilitate next generation wireless communication systems. Much of the existing research in wireless networking assumes a communication between one sender and one or multiple receiver(s). For reasons of self-interest, users may however allow terminals to engage in cooperative behavior, resulting in improved overall network performance. For cooperation, terminals will connect to each other using a short range communication link and simultaneously being connected to the centralized access point. This configuration allows many forms of cooperation. For this special issue, we distinguish between altruism and cooperation by requiring that cooperation benefit each entity involved. From this perspective, pure relaying is an example of altruism and not cooperation. Cooperation is not limited to a single ISO/OSI protocol layer, but can be addressed across multiple protocol layers. The focus of this call is to solicit novel papers addressing cooperation over all protocol layers from physical to application layer. =============================== Submission and Important Dates Submission deadline 1st October Notification 15th January Final version 15th February Planed Issue 2nd half 2006 Papers should follow the Springer format (11pt, single column, double spaced) and not exceed twenty pages including figures and tables.

Papers must represent high-quality and previously unpublished work. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following areas of cooperative wireless networks: Architectural Principles Multi-Access Capability Network Coding Radio Access Technologies Cooperative Processing Resource Management Distributed Radio Cooperative Channel Coding Heterogenous Networks Terminal design Self-organizing networks Cognitive Networks Middle-Ware Grid-Computing Source coding for cooperation Cooperating Services =============================== Guest Editors Frank H.P.

September 2005 Location: Paris, France Submission Deadline: 20. June 2005 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- AIMS AND SCOPE OF THE WORKSHOP ------------------------------ Computer Games and Collaborative Working Environments - at first glance this appears to be a surprising combination. However, there are several overlaps between these two research areas. The aim of the workshop is to study commonalities and particularities in the design of Computer Games and CSCW systems in their structure and as a learning environment. Nowadays Computer Games are not only used for entertainment purposes but become a serious issue in research and business. Games have long provided a structured environment for quickly learning complex collaborative or cooperative behaviours through play. Computer Games find application in today's working environments as so called 'Serious Games' for training and simulation purposes, and share as a collaborative activity several features and requirements with collaborative working environments. Games may combine successfully traditional aspects of gaming with the anytime, anywhere approach of modern information technology as in pervasive games. The aim of the workshop is to create a mutual understanding of how CSCW systems and Computer Games can benefit from each other in technology-mediated settings such as computer or video games, augmented reality, virtual reality, cross-media, mobile devices, live action role plays, or massively multi-player online role playing games (MMORPG). We are interested in examining structures which both research areas, Computer Games and CSCW systems have in common, and which can be shared in future applications. Join us for a single-day workshop on Computer Games and CSCW and contribute with your position paper. A panel discussion will study in general how CSCW Systems and Computer Games can benefit from each other. It will cover new uses for games, ways of incorporating new methods into traditional CSCW usability testing, and ways of pursuing new goals such as peer or collaborative learning with games. Breakout groups will elaborate on panel topics, and also devise next steps for this interest community. The workshop will be highly interactive, allowing time for interpersonal, small group communication, questions, and discussion. The workshop will bring together researchers, practitioners and designers from several disciplines, including game design and development, communication, psychology, computer science, graphics, visual art, etc. Participants are selected based on submitted position papers. A workshop report will be generated for SIGCHI Bulletin, and workshop participants are invited to submit extended versions of their position papers for publication in the journal Interactive Technology and Smart Education. SUBMISSIONS ----------- Participants will be asked to electronically submit the following: 1. A position paper of no more than six pages (in the ECSCW paper format), which should include either/or: (a) A discussion of interest on collaborative learning in Computer Games. (b) A description of a practical approach in development of Computer Games in a Collaborative Working Environment. (c) Examples or some discussion on lessons learned for CSCW systems by having taken certain approaches to design or evaluation. 2. A profile of the author, as an appendix, consisting of: (a) A short biography (no more than 250 words) (b) The discipline(s) you are situated in (c) A brief description of your relevant work, with references (e.g. URLs) Please submit your position papers to: Ecscw-games-workshop(a)fit.fraunhofer.de IMPORTANT DATES --------------- * 20.

[Fwd: [Tccc] Call for Paper: JSAC-MRNM (The deadline is approaching.)]
by Lars Wolf 23 May '05

23 May '05

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] Call for Paper: JSAC-MRNM (The deadline is approaching.) Date: Sun, 22 May 2005 13:14:11 -0700 (PDT) From: Fan Zhao <fanzhao(a)ucdavis.edu> To: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu PLEASE ACCEPT OUR APOLOGIES IF YOU RECEIVE MULTIPLE COPIES CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications MOBILE ROUTERS AND NETWORK MOBILITY http://www.argreenhouse.com/society/J-SAC/Calls/mobile_routers.html Network mobility support is concerned with managing the mobility of an entire network that is changing its point of attachment to the Internet and thus its reachability in the Internet topology. If network mobility is not explicitly supported by some mechanisms, existing sessions break and connectivity to the global Internet is lost. A mobile network is composed of Mobile Router(s) (MR) and Mobile Network Nodes (MNN) that can be fixed or mobile. There has been rapid development in network mobility support, i.e., providing Internet connectivity to the networks that move using mobile routers since the inception of Mobile IPv4 in 1996. Seamless Internet access in public transportation such as in trains and busses can be possible if mobile routers are used. Cars with low-power sensors seamlessly connected to the Internet constitute yet another example of networks which move. To date, some airline companies announced Internet connectivity support during commercial flights and this trend is expected to accelerate and cover most if not all flights. This issue is focused on modeling, analysis, and simulation of network mobility support protocols. We solicit papers presenting original and unpublished work including, but not limited to the following topics: * Modeling and Analysis of Network Mobility o Modeling, analysis and simulation of mobile router o Protocols for route optimization o Mobility issues inside a mobile network o Mobile IPv6 extensions for route optimization o Nested mobile networks o Multihomed mobile networks o Operational issues to deploy mobile networks o Auto-configuration for mobile networks o Mobile router support on cellular phone platforms * Services in the Networks that Move o Service advertisement and discovery protocols in networks that move o Specifications nad models of services for network mobility o Encryption and authentication in service access for network mobility * Security Issues in Network Mobility o Security analysis of present network mobility support protocols o Applications of AAA and EAP to network mobility o Interaction with security-enhanced modules in other layers (vertically) or other middle boxes (horizontally) Prospective authors should follow the IEEE J-SAC manuscript format described in the Information for Authors. Authors MUST submit their draft manuscripts through the EDAS peer review website, together with a short abstract (approximately 150 words) in the EDAS website form. Please note potential authors should create their own accounts through the EDAS peer review website before submitting manuscript(s). EDAS will accept manuscripts in PDF format only. There will be one round of reviewers and acceptance will be limited to those papers requiring only moderate revisions. The following timetable applies: Manuscript Submission: JUNE 1, 2005 Acceptance Notification: December 1, 2005 Final Manuscript Due: March 1, 2006 Publication: 3rd Quarter 2006 Guest Editorial Board: Behcet Sarikaya Computer Science Dept Univ of Northern British Columbia Prince George, BC Canada V2N 4Z9 sarikaya(a)unbc.ca S.

See the web site for details. http://acmmm05.comp.nus.edu.sg/ ******************************************************************************* IEEE MultiMedia Call for Papers *Call for Papers* **Continuous Archival and Retrieval of Personal Experiences (CARPE)*** **October-December 2006 Special Issue** * **Guest Editors** Jim Gemmell <mailto:jgemmell@microsoft.com>, Microsoft Hari Sundaram <mailto:Hari.Sundaram@asu.edu>, Arizona State University **Abstracts due:** 11 Nov. 2005 **Submissions due:** 12 Dec. 2005 **Author notification:** 6 Mar. 2006 **Final versions due:** 19 June 2006 To expedite the review process we would appreciate it if authors intending to submit an article could send a title, author list, and abstract to Jim Gemmell <jgemmell(a)microsoft.com> and Hari Sundaram <Hari.Sundaram(a)asu.edu> by **11 November 2005**. **Overview** Human beings have always been interested in personal media capture to sample and archive their experiences. The technology to support this endeavor has progressed from diaries and painting, through pocket cameras, to the current era where capture is digital, and sound and image recording can be supplemented with such data as temperature, heart rate, location, Web pages visited, compute/device usage logs, and so on. A large proportion of multimedia research has focused on the representation, archival and transmission of media related to isolated events--single or group images of a party, a video of a graduation ceremony, and so on. This special issue is dedicated to an emerging area of research that deals with the continuous archival and retrieval of all media relating to personal experiences. The continuous archival paradigm fundamentally alters our relationship to biological memory, since analysis of such media powerfully augments human memory. Personal storage of a person's entire media throughout a lifetime has been desired and discussed since at least 1945, when Vannevar Bush published /As We May Think/, positing the "Memex" device "in which an individual stores all his books, records, and communications, and which is mechanized so that it may be consulted with exceeding speed and flexibility." His vision was astonishingly broad for the time, including full-text search, annotations, hyperlinks, virtually unlimited storage, and even stereo cameras mounted on eyeglasses. In 2004, storage, sensor, and computing technology have progressed to the point of making Memex feasible and even affordable. Indeed, we can now look beyond Memex at new possibilities. Interest in this topic has been demonstrated by the success of two recent workshops: CARPE (at ACM Multimedia 04) and "Memory and Sharing of Experiences" (at Pervasive 04). Also, there is interest in funding such research, as evidenced by the DARPA Assist program and the UK Memories for Life grand challenge proposal. **Potential topics** This special issue encourages submissions on topics relevant to CARPE, including: * Capture/sensors (including scanning, wearable, embedded, different kinds of sensors, and robotic assistance) and experiential sampling * Data storage, management, organization, and retrieval * Insight (content analysis and data mining) * User interface issues, including visualization, authoring, story-telling, and annotation * Applications, such as personal museum, health-support, childcare, research tools, and meeting capture. * Security, privacy, and legal issues Articles should be no more than eight magazine pages, where a page is 750 words and a quarter-page image counts as 200 words. Cite only 15-20 of the most critical references, and consider providing background in sidebars for nonexpert readers. Color images can be interspersed through the article and should be limited to a total of 10.

It involves important technological areas like computer supported cooperative work (CSCW), workflow, computer- assisted design, databases, distributed systems, and concurrent programming. In the past few years, the prosperity of cooperative computing has been accelerated by the ubiquity of the Internet and the advent of wireless technologies, giving rise to the new research discipline of Collaborative Internet Computing (CIC). Now, cooperating parties can work over the Internet at any time and place. At the same time, we have also witnessed an enormous leap in communication speed/bandwidth as brought by advancement in technologies. This has opened up a wide range of new cooperative applications that were not feasible in the past. Since 2000, a series of three workshops on CIC have been organized by The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. The workshops have served as a platform for researchers in the related disciplines of CIC to present and exchange their latest works and ideas. Over the years, we have seen an increasing number of high quality submissions. Also, many important research results have been reported which subsequently have influenced other works on CIC. These have strengthened our belief that a community with common interest in CIC has been formed and a critical mass of researchers has been built up. This special issue will provide a forum for timely and in-depth presentation of progress in the theory and principles underlying Cooperative Interactive Computing. Topics of interest include (but not limited to): * Agents and Brokers for Cooperative Computing * Human-Computer Interaction * Interaction Models and Protocols for Cooperative Systems * Internet Communication Infrastructure for Collaboration * Middleware for Collaboration * Java, CORBA, DCOM, and XML Cooperative Application * Workflow Systems * Mobile Cooperative Systems * Distributed Multimedia Systems * Enterprise Knowledge Management * Computer Aided Design and Computer Aided Manufacturing * Computer-Supported Cooperative Work * Evaluation Methodologies of Cooperative Systems * Case Studies Submission Guidelines: Please submit the electronic version of your paper to cic2004(a)comp.polyu.edu.hk.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] ACM VANET 2005 - Deadline Extended Date: Thu, 5 May 2005 17:59:48 -0700 From: Chen-Nee Chuah <chuah(a)ece.ucdavis.edu> To: <tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu> In response to numerous requests, the submission deadline for ACM VANET 2005 has been extended to May 16, 2005. =========================================== CALL FOR PAPERS VANET 2005 The Second ACM International Workshop on Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks In conjunction with ACM MobiCom 2005 Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE September 2, 2005 Cologne, Germany Web site: http://www.sigmobile.org/workshops/vanet2005/ Important Dates: Paper Submission Deadline: May 16, 2005 Notification of Acceptance: June 20, 2005 Camera-Ready Deadline: July 13, 2005 The goal of this workshop is to explore the development of wireless vehicular ad hoc networking (VANET) technologies. Enabled by short- to medium-range communication systems (vehicle-vehicle or vehicle-roadside), the VANET vision includes vehicular realtime and safety applications, sharing the wireless channel with mobile applications from a large, decentralized array of commercial service providers. VANET safety applications include collision and other safety warnings. Non-safety applications include real-time traffic congestion and routing information, high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, and many others. Following the success of VANET 2004 held last year in Philadelphia, VANET 2005, the Second ACM International Workshop on Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks, will be held in Cologne, Germany, September 2, 2005, in conjunction with MobiCom 2005. Authors are invited to submit papers presenting new research related to the theory or practice of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET). All submissions must describe original research, not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * Safety and commercial applications * Protocol design (including low-power, cross-layer, etc.) * Security and privacy * Power control * Multi-channel organization and operation * Network management * Modulation and coding * Channel modeling The opportunities for VANET are growing rapidly. In December 2003, the U.S. FCC approved 75 MHz of spectrum for Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC), and the resulting DSRC system is expected to be the first wide-scale VANET in North America. In Japan, two DSRC standards have been adopted (the ARIB STD-T75 in 2001, the ARIB STD-T88 in 2004), and Japanese auto manufactures are working with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transportation in the third phase of an ambitious Advanced Safety Vehicle project. The German Ministry of Education and Research has sponsored the Fleetnet and Network on Wheels projects. Throughout the world, there are many national/international projects in government, industry, and academia devoted to VANETs. Creating high-performance, highly scalable, and secure VANET technologies presents an extraordinary challenge to the wireless research community. Yet, certain limitations commonly assumed in ad hoc networks are mitigated in VANET. For example, VANET may marshal ample computational and power resources. Mobility patterns are constrained by road paths and driving speed restrictions. As opposed to sensor networks, VANET represents high resource/performance wireless technologies. Submission Instructions All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Papers must be in PDF format, no longer than 10 pages (single- or double-column), in font no smaller than 11 points, and must fit properly on US Letter-sized paper (8.5 inch × 11 inch) with reasonable margins. Submitted papers will be judged based on their quality through a double-blind review process, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. Detailed instructions for paper submission will be posted on the VANET 2005 web page at http://www.sigmobile.org/workshops/vanet2005/ Please email questions related to paper submission or the technical program to vanet2005-pc-chairs(a)monarch.cs.rice.edu .

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] Call for Paper: JSAC-MRNM Date: Tue, 3 May 2005 10:56:02 -0700 (PDT) From: Fan Zhao <fanzhao(a)ucdavis.edu> To: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu PLEASE ACCEPT OUR APOLOGIES IF YOU RECEIVE MULTIPLE COPIES CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications MOBILE ROUTERS AND NETWORK MOBILITY http://www.argreenhouse.com/society/J-SAC/Calls/mobile_routers.html Network mobility support is concerned with managing the mobility of an entire network that is changing its point of attachment to the Internet and thus its reachability in the Internet topology. If network mobility is not explicitly supported by some mechanisms, existing sessions break and connectivity to the global Internet is lost. A mobile network is composed of Mobile Router(s) (MR) and Mobile Network Nodes (MNN) that can be fixed or mobile. There has been rapid development in network mobility support, i.e., providing Internet connectivity to the networks that move using mobile routers since the inception of Mobile IPv4 in 1996. Seamless Internet access in public transportation such as in trains and busses can be possible if mobile routers are used. Cars with low-power sensors seamlessly connected to the Internet constitute yet another example of networks which move. To date, some airline companies announced Internet connectivity support during commercial flights and this trend is expected to accelerate and cover most if not all flights. This issue is focused on modeling, analysis, and simulation of network mobility support protocols. We solicit papers presenting original and unpublished work including, but not limited to the following topics: * Modeling and Analysis of Network Mobility o Modeling, analysis and simulation of mobile router o Protocols for route optimization o Mobility issues inside a mobile network o Mobile IPv6 extensions for route optimization o Nested mobile networks o Multihomed mobile networks o Operational issues to deploy mobile networks o Auto-configuration for mobile networks o Mobile router support on cellular phone platforms * Services in the Networks that Move o Service advertisement and discovery protocols in networks that move o Specifications nad models of services for network mobility o Encryption and authentication in service access for network mobility * Security Issues in Network Mobility o Security analysis of present network mobility support protocols o Applications of AAA and EAP to network mobility o Interaction with security-enhanced modules in other layers (vertically) or other middle boxes (horizontally) Prospective authors should follow the IEEE J-SAC manuscript format described in the Information for Authors. Authors MUST submit their draft manuscripts through the EDAS peer review website, together with a short abstract (approximately 150 words) in the EDAS website form. Please note potential authors should create their own accounts through the EDAS peer review website before submitting manuscript(s). EDAS will accept manuscripts in PDF format only. There will be one round of reviewers and acceptance will be limited to those papers requiring only moderate revisions.

We are specifically interested in work dealing with network layer and above (layers 3-7). However, cross-layer solutions including MAC interaction as well as ESS management via IAPP are welcome. Within the context of interest to this workshop, a list of topics includes, but is not limited to: - Applications and services - New service and business models - Public WLAN and hotspot architectures - Community-owned WLAN infrastructures - WLAN-based ad-hoc network service creation and management - Metro-area hotspots using 802.11/802.16 mesh - Multi-radio mesh node designs - Self-configuring mesh networks for public hotspots - Mobile routers for transient, portable hotspots - Application case studies of mobile routers - Interworking with other wireless systems, e.g., 3G, 802.16 - Mobility, roaming, and handoff management - Context-aware services and technologies - Location-aware applications and services - Multimedia wireless applications, e.g., Voice over WLAN (VoWLAN) - Authentication, accounting, billing and payment issues - Security and privacy in public WLANs - Middleware support - Service location and discovery - Traffic measurements and modeling - Case studies on deployed platforms and experimental testbeds Please consult the Program Co-Chairs Renato Lo Cigno (locigno(a)dit.unitn.it) and Milind M. Buddhikot (milind(a)dnrc.bell-labs.com) if you are uncertain whether your paper falls within the scope of the workshop. Important Dates (TBC): - Paper/Poster Submission Deadline: May 30, 2005, 5pm EST - Notification: July 1, 2005 - Camera Ready Due: July 20, 2005 Paper and Poster Submission Guidelines: This year's workshop solicits two types of contributions, i.e., regular papers and posters. Submitted regular papers must not be currently under review for any other publication. The poster session will provide an excellent opportunity for initial feedback on early research results. Posters may not preclude concurrent submissions on the same topic in regular conferences and journals. Accepted regular papers and poster descriptions will be published in the workshop proceedings, which will be available at the ACM digital library. The page limits for a regular paper and a poster description are 10 and 3 pages, respectively. Visit the conference website at http://wmash2005.ece.iastate.edu for the paper format and submission guideline.
