[Fwd: [Tccc] CFP : 2nd IEEE International Workshop on Heterogeneous Multi Hop Wireless and Mobile Networks MHWMN 2006]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP : 2nd IEEE International Workshop on Heterogeneous Multi Hop Wireless and Mobile Networks MHWMN 2006 Datum: Sat, 10 Jun 2006 23:07:53 -0400 Von: Mieso Denko <denko(a)cis.uoguelph.ca> Antwort an: Mieso Denko <denko(a)cis.uoguelph.ca> Organisation: University of Guelph An: <tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu> CC: denko(a)snowhite.cis.uoguelph.ca ****** Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message **** ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2nd IEEE International Workshop on Heterogeneous Multi-Hop Wireless and Mobile Networks 2006 (IEEE MHWMN'06) Website: http://www.ececs.uc.edu/~qzeng/MHWMN2006/CFP.htm In conjunction with IEEE MASS 2006 (www.ieee-mass.org), Vancouver, Canada, October 9-12, 2006 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AIM and SCOPE The traditional centralized wireless and mobile networks are based on single-hop architecture and rely on the existing fixed infrastructure such as base stations or access points. The proliferation and deployment of radio access networks such as Wireless WANs, Wireless LANs, and Wireless PANs with distinguishing characteristics of data rate, coverage range, power, mobility, and prices will clearly lead to a need for seamless and ubiquitous access across these various networks. Such an integrated heterogeneous environment enables a user to access a particular network depending upon the application needs and the types of radio access networks (RANs) available (e.g., cellular network, ad hoc, WLAN, WPAN etc). The heterogeneous multi-hop wireless and mobile networks, on the other hand, provide unlimited mobility and greater flexibility but introduce a number of challenges due to dynamic network topology. The design of efficient and scalable protocols for existing multi-hop wireless and mobile networks such as wireless and mobile ad hoc networks continue to pose challenges at all the layers of networking stack. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate a global heterogeneous architecture and services that together provide seamless integration of single-hop networks (e.g., cellular, WLAN, WWAN) and multi-hop mobile ad hoc networks. The aim of this workshop is to bring together practitioners and researchers from both academia and industry in order to have a forum for discussion and technical presentations on the latest research and future research directions in heterogeneous multi-hop wireless and mobile networks. We are seeking original and previously unpublished research papers addressing theoretical and application issues in heterogeneous multi-hop wireless mobile networks. TOPICS Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following areas: Multi-hop architectures and protocols for resource management Quality of services (QoS) delivery in MHWMN Seamless Mobility, Vertical Handoff Robust and scalable routing protocols for MHWMN MAC protocols for MHWMN Self-configuration and synchronization for MHWMN Security issues in MHWMN Topology control and management for MHWMN Mobility models and location management in MHWMN Cross-layer design and interactions for MHWMN Modeling and performance evaluation for MHWMN Algorithms for localization and signal processing in MHWMN Implementation testbeds for MHWMN Operating systems and middleware for MHWMN Mesh networks SUBMISSIONS Submissions will be judged on correctness, originality, technical strength, significance and quality of presentation. The manuscript must follow IEEE two-column format with single-spaced, ten-point font in the text. The maximum manuscript length is eight (8) pages. Authors are requested to submit their papers (PDF format), contact addresses, telephone number, fax number, and e-mail addresses (text format) to the co-chairs, Qing-An Zeng (qzeng(a)ececs.uc.edu) and Mieso Denko (denko(a)cis.uoguelph.ca) by June 15, 2006. SPECIAL ISSUE Some selected high quality papers from the workshop will be published in the Journal of Ubiquitous Computing and Intelligence (JUCI)) (http://www.juci.org/) as Special Issue on Heterogeneous Mobile and Wireless Networks.

NOSSDAV 2007 17th International workshop on Network and Operating Systems Support for Digital Audio & Video Urbana Champaign, IL, USA June 4-5, 2007 http://www.nossdav.org/2007/CFP.pdf For seventeen years, NOSSDAV has fostered cutting edge, state of the art research in multimedia and newly emerging areas such as networked games and peertopeer streaming. The workshop environment encourages lively discussion among participants and invites strong feedback for work in progress. In 2007, NOSSDAV will be held at the University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign IL, USA. UIUC is in driving distance to Chicago, offering spectacular architecture, art museums and live jazz. Urbana is close to various national historical landmarks including President Lincoln's house & library. NOSSDAV invites submissions on all areas of multimedia computing and networking and strongly encourages work in progress in emerging areas. Papers grounded in high quality experimental research based on prototype and real systems are highly valued. NOSSDAV will give extra consideration to papers that aim to comprehensively validate previous work in some topic within multimedia, propose new directions for research or call into question existing conventional wisdom. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: • Peer to peer streaming • Networked games • Sensor networks and architectures • In network stream processing • Wireless and mobile multimedia systems • 3D multimedia and teleimmersion • Streaming 3D graphics and virtual world • Application level multicast • Multimedia security • Digital rights management • Realtime operating system support for multimedia • Multimedia middleware and frameworks A broad view will be taken in deciding what topics are within scope. Please feel free to contact the workshop co chairs if you are unsure and wish to check if a particular paper or topic is within the workshop scope. As always, student participation is strongly encouraged. To encourage a good mix of seasoned researchers as well as students, we will be offering discounted registration for student members who attend with their faculty advisor. Submissions (as well as the camera ready final versions of accepted papers) should be no longer than 6 pages. We expect these submissions to be the kernel of what will eventually lead to full length papers at high quality conferences or journals. Cochairs: Reza Rejaie (University of Oregon), Klara Nahrstedt (UIUC) Important Dates: Paper registration: February 5, 2007 Paper submission: February 12, 2007 Notification: March 31, 2007 Camera ready: April 19, 2007 Workshop: June 4-5, 2007 http://www.nossdav.org/2007

The CoNext 2006 web site is: http://www.adetti.pt/events/CONEXT06/Main.php?contents=home.htm Submission deadline is July 7, 2006 (registration of abstracts July 1st) CoNext is co-sponsored by ACM SIGCOMM. Travel grants will be available for students. CoNext 2006 will be a major forum in the area of future networking technologies. CoNext emphasizes synergies between various international and technical communities. The conference will feature a single-track, high quality technical program with significant opportunities for technical and social interaction among a close-knit community of participants. CoNext aims to be open and accommodating to multiple viewpoints and is committed to fairness in the review process and to returning deep and sound technical feedback to authors of submitted paper. CoNext 2006 will emphasize the emerging new paradigms for large-scale, ubiquitous networking. These generally aim to achieve new functionality to support advanced networked services and to provide seamless integration for embedded, wireless, and mobile devices into the network fabric. -- http://parislab.thomson.net +++ Posted to members-istenext by Christophe Diot <christophe.diot(a)thomson.net> +++
