-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: E-NEXT.members: CFP: Deadline Extension - Performance Control in Wireless Sensor Networks Datum: Thu, 16 Mar 2006 13:59:11 +0000 Von: Utz Roedig <utz(a)cs.ucc.ie> An: members(a)ist-e-next.net Due to several requests, we have decided to extend the paper submission deadline for the Performance Control in Wireless Sensor Networks Workshop. Extended deadline: March 22th. A limited number of E-Next travel grants is also available for this workshop! -------------------------------------------------- Performance Control in Wireless Sensor Networks, a Workshop at the 2006 IFIP Networking Conference. -------------------------------------------------- Please apologise cross/multiple posting, and please feel free to distribute this CfP further. Networking 2006 will take place at the University of Coimbra, Portugal, between May 15 and May 19. Detailed information ==================== http://www.cs.ucc.ie/~ur1/networking2006/ http://networking2006.dei.uc.pt/workshops.htm Important Dates =============== March 22th, 2006 Papers due (Extended deadline) April 10th, 2006 Notification of acceptance April 17th, 2006 Camera ready papers due Goal and Overview ================== The Performance Control in WirelessSensor Networks Workshop will be a half-day, peer-reviewed workshop on Friday, May 19, 2006. The aim of the workshop is to bring together professionals from academia and industry to discuss performance issues in wireless sensor networks. The focus of the workshop will be on work in progress. Call for Papers =============== Wireless sensor networks are currently the subject of intense research and many prototype installations are currently investigated. These existing sensor network installations have in common that they are not considered time critical. No immediate action has to be undertaken as a response to the received data. However, many future application areas of wireless sensor networks such as plant automation and control, traffic management or medical applications require this feature. In such environments, data has to be transported reliable and in time through the sensor network. In other words, performance guarantees regarding a variety of network parameters are required. Due to the lack of appropriate models, components and protocols it is currently very difficult to construct and operate a wireless sensor network with a controlled performance. Thus, the commercial success of wireless sensor networks in many application areas is unsure unless this particular problem is understood and solved. Topics of Interest Include: =========================== This workshop intends to bring together researchers and practitioners, working on performance issues within wireless sensor networks. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * Models: Traffic models, channel models, mathematical models to balance performance parameters in the network. * MAC protocols: MAC protocols with deterministic behavior, MAC protocols to balance forwarding performance and energy consumption. * Routing and topology control: Methods to stabilize network topology, topology robustness. * Data transport: Control of data transport delay and reliability, methods to improve data forwarding performance in sensor networks. * Operating systems: Performance optimization and control of sensor network operating systems. * Middleware and frameworks: Middleware/frameworks providing performance guarantees for sensor network applications. * Security: The impact of security features on network performance. Paper Submissions: ================== The paper can report on work in progress. The size of the paper should not exceed 8 pages (Please adhere to the formatting standard for a manuscript of the Springer-Verlag LNCS). The cover page must contain an abstract of about 150 words 3-5 keywords, name and affiliation of author(s) as well as the corresponding author's e-mail and postal address. Authors of accepted papers are expected to register and present the paper at the Workshop. Paper submission procedures will be announced on: http://www.cs.ucc.ie/~ur1/networking2006/ -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Utz Roedig Mobile & Internet Systems Laboratory (MISL) Tel: +353-21-490-2019 Department of Computer Science Fax: +353-21-427-4390 University College Cork Mail: utz(a)cs.ucc.ie College Road, Cork, Ireland --------------------------------------------------------------------- +++ Posted to members-istenext by "Utz Roedig" <utz(a)cs.ucc.ie> +++

Recent advances in wireless communication and sensor and actuator technologies have given rise to a new genre of ubiquitous systems. This new genre is characterized as self-organizing, critically resource constrained, and network centric. The fundamental change is communication: numerous small devices operating collectively, rather than as standalone devices, form a dynamic ambient network that connects each device to more powerful networks and processing resources. NCUS'06 is the successor of IFIP International Symposium on Network Centric Ubiquitous Systems (NCUS'05) held in Nagasaki, Japan and offers a premier international forum for researchers and practitioners from both industry and academia, to discuss hot topics and emerging areas, to share recent progress and latest results, and to promote cutting-edge research and future cooperation on ubiquitous systems and ubiquitous networking. Topics of interest include, but not limited to, the following: * Software Engineering technologies and Formal Techniques for modeling, designing, and testing network centric ubiquitous systems * Hardware Architectures, Communication Protocols, Human-Computer Interaction and other enabling technologies for network centric ubiquitous systems * Theoretical foundations and algorithms for ubiquitous networking * Context awareness, adaptation and management in network centric ubiquitous systems * Peer-to-Peer and overlay networks, systems, and applications in ubiquitous systems * Mobile networks, Sensor networks, unmanned air and ground vehicle networks, and applications * Web services and Middleware support for ubiquitous networking * Security and Trust management in ubiquitous networks, systems, and applications * Energy management and harvesting for network centric ubiquitous systems * Simulation, Performance evaluation, Experiments, and trials of ubiquitous networks and applications * Comprehensive survey on timely topics [Submission] Prospective authors are encouraged to submit a PDF version of original manuscripts (not being considered for publication elsewhere, not exceeding 12 single-column, single-spaced pages). Authors should make sure that the submission can be viewed via Acrobat Reader and printed correctly via standard letter or A4 size paper.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: E-NEXT.members: CFP: IEEE JSAC on Cross-Layer Wireless Datum: Mon, 13 Mar 2006 09:41:30 +0000 Von: Cormac J. Sreenan <cjs(a)cs.ucc.ie> An: members(a)ist-e-next.net ---------------- CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications CROSS-LAYER OPTIMIZED WIRELESS MULTIMEDIA COMMUNICATIONS Submission deadline: May 15, 2006 Recent advances in wireless and mobile communications provide ample opportunities for introducing new services. Supporting multimedia applications and services over wireless networks is challenging due to constraints and heterogeneities such as limited battery power, limited bandwidth, random time-varying fading effect, different protocols and standards, stringent quality of service (QoS) requirements. Cross-layer design methodologies hold great promise for addressing these challenges and providing reliable and high-quality end-to-end performance in wireless multimedia communications. This issue solicits the state-of-the-art approaches and technical solutions in the area of cross-layer optimized wireless multimedia communications and networking. The issue will provide a compelling forum for researchers and practitioners to present their results. Original contributions, previously unpublished and not currently under review by another journal, are solicited in relevant areas including (but not limited to) the following: - Architectures for wireless multimedia communications - Multimedia delivery over various types of wireless networks (3G, 4G, ad hoc networks, WLAN, WMAN, or hybrid networks) - End-to-end QoS support for wireless networks - Multimedia delivery to energy-constrained embedded devices - Caching and content management in WLANs and WMANs - Interaction among medium access control (MAC), radio link control (RLC), and routing protocols for media delivery over multi-hop wireless networks - Wireless video sensor networks - Multimedia delivery for broadband vehicular networks - Secure multimedia communications - System prototypes and experiences with broadband wireless multimedia delivery Please note that submitted papers must explicitly address cross-layer design issues. Prospective authors should follow the IEEE J-SAC manuscript format described in the Information for Authors, at http://www.argreenhouse.com/society/J-SAC/Guidelines/info.html. Authors MUST submit their manuscripts through the Microsoft Conference Management Toolkit (CMT) at https://msrcmt.research.microsoft.com/COWMC2006/CallForPapers.aspx, together with a short abstract (approximately 150 words) in the CMT website form. In addition, the mandatory cover page is not included in the page count. The cover page should include paper title, abstract, list of keywords indicating the paper's topic area, authors' full names, affiliations with complete addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses. Please note potential authors should create their own accounts through the CMT peer review website before submitting manuscript(s). CMT 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 will apply: Manuscript submission: MAY 15, 2006 Acceptance notification: November 1, 2006 Final manuscript due: December 1, 2006 Publication: 2nd Quarter 2007 Guest Editors: Chang Wen Chen Dept Elect & Comp Engr Florida Inst of Technology Melbourne, FL 32901 cchen(a)fit.edu Pascal Frossard Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) Lausanne - 1015, Switzerland pascal.frossard(a)epfl.ch Cormac Sreenan Dept of Comp Science Univ College Cork Cork, Ireland cjs(a)cs.ucc.ie K.
