Over the last two decades, many organization and individuals have relied on electronic collaboration between distributed teams of humans, computer applications, and/or autonomous robots to achieve higher productivity and produce joint products that would have been impossible to develop without the contributions of multiple collaborators. Technology has evolved from standalone tools, to open systems supporting collaboration in multi-organizational settings, and form general purpose tools to specialized collaboration grids. Future collaboration solutions that fully realize the promises of electronic collaboration requires advancements in networking, technology and systems, user interfaces and interaction paradigms, and interoperation with application-specific components and tools. The Third International Conference on Collaborative Computing (CollaborateCom 2007) will continue to serve as a premier international forum for discussions among academic and industrial researchers, practitioners, and students interested in collaborative networking, technology and systems, and applications. TOPICS AND AREAS Topics include, but are not limited to, the following: * Architectures, protocols, and enabling technologies for collaborative computing networks and systems * Autonomic computing and quality of services in collaborative networks, systems, and applications * Collaboration in pervasive computing applications * Collaborative e-education, e-learning, and collaborative computing in large scale digital libraries * Collaborative mobile networks, sensor networks, unmanned air and ground vehicle networks & applications * Collaborative technologies for fast creation and deployment of new mobile services * Computer Supported Collaborative Work with distributed systems * Data management and middleware support for collaborative information systems * Distributed technologies and architectures to support group collaboration, activity, and awareness * Empirical studies on distributed collaboration * Energy management for collaborative networks * Methodologies and tools for design and analysis of collaborative user applications * Multi-agent technology and software technologies for collaborative networking and applications * Peer-to-peer and overlay networks, systems, and applications * Security and trust management in collaborative networks, systems, and applications * Simulation, performance evaluation, experiments, and trials of collaborative networks and applications * Software design, testing, and experimentation technology for collaborative networking and applications * Theoretical aspects of distributed collaboration * Theoretical foundations and algorithms for collaborative networks, applications, and worksharing * Trustworthy collaborative business processing in virtual organizations * Visualization techniques and visual languages for collaborative networks and applications * Web services technologies for collaborative networking and applications * Workflow technology and workflow management for collaborative network management * Modeling for Collaboration * P2P platforms for supporting collaboration * Collaborative, location aware mobile systems * Collaborative sensor systems * Security an privacy in collaboration * Human/robot collaboration * Human-centric ubiquitous collaboration * Collaborative, context-aware infrastructure * Group-driven composition of systems from components * Technology and system for collaboration in real-time enterprises The conference will be hierarchically structured into 5 areas: * Collaborative applications * Networking * Collaboration technology and systems * Ubiquitous collaboration * Interfaces and protocols for team and man-machine collaboration The vice chairs that we choose to lead these areas will further refine the scope of the conference.

[Fwd: [Tccc] ACM/Springer MONET Special Issue on "Advances in Wireless Mesh Networks" - Deadline Extended to June 15]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] ACM/Springer MONET Special Issue on "Advances in Wireless Mesh Networks" - Deadline Extended to June 15 Datum: Thu, 31 May 2007 23:41:13 -0500 Von: Chonggang Wang <cgwang(a)uark.edu> An: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu [Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] ============================================ CALL FOR PAPERS ACM/Springer Mobile Networks and Applications (MONET) Special Issue on "Advances in Wireless Mesh Networks" ============================================ Wireless mesh networks facilitates the extension of local area networks into wide areas and have emerged as a promising approach for future network accesses. Prior efforts on wireless networks, especially multi-hop ad hoc networks, have led to significant research contributions that range from fundamental results on theoretical capacity bounds to numerous practical routing and transport protocols. Unlike ad hoc networks, however, mesh networks can serve as access networks that employ multi-hop wireless forwarding by mesh nodes to relay traffic to and from the wired Internet. The unique features of wireless mesh networks pose challenges in designing affordable, reliable, and sustainable network infrastructures. The critical issues span a rich spectrum of issues from interference-aware channel assignment, multi-hop routing, to reliable transport and infrastructure optimization, many of which have to be revisited in this new context. The purpose of this special issue is to archive the state-of-the-art achievements in wireless mesh networking. We solicit original and unpublished research papers in both theoretical studies and practical protocol/architecture designs for wireless mesh networks, as well as prototypes. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: - Theoretical performance analysis - Network capacity and network coverage - Scalable power management and topology control - Cognitive radio-enabled wireless mesh networks - Multi-channel and multi-radio MAC protocols - Scalable and robust routing protocols - Reliable and adaptive transport protocols - Cross-layer design and optimization - New applications over wireless mesh networks - Secure communication protocols - Resource management and traffic control - Heterogeneous wireless mesh networks - Cooperative communication for mesh networks - Efficient transport design - Network operation and management - Mobility management - Testbeds and trial systems Publication Schedules: - Manuscript Due: June 15, 2007 - Acceptance Notification: Oct 15, 2007 - Final Manuscript Due: Dec 1, 2007 - Publication Date: second quarter in 2008 (expected) Submission Guidelines: Only original, unpublished research papers will be considered. Submission should be limited to 25 double space pages. Prospective authors should submit their manuscript as to http://mone.edmgr.com and select "Advances in Wireless Mesh Networks" as the article type. The online manuscript submission and review system for Mobile Networks and Applications offers easy and straightforward log-in and submission procedures. This system supports a wide range of submission file formats: for manuscripts - Word, WordPerfect, RTF, TXT and LaTex; for figures - TIFF, GIF, JPEG, EPS, PPT, and Postscript. PDF is not an acceptable file format.
