MP2P'09: 6th IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Peer-to-Peer Computing (MP2P'09)
by Kurt Tutschku 16 Sep '08

16 Sep '08

================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS 6th IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Peer-to-Peer Computing (MP2P'09) http://www.samrg.org/mp2p/2009 Dallas, Texas, USA, March 16-20, 2009 In conjunction with the 7th IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications (PerCom'09) http://www.percom.org/ Technical funding by EuroNGI (*): http://www.eurongi.org/ (*) Final approval pending ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Peer-to-Peer (P2P) computing is a networking and distributed computing paradigm which allows the sharing of computing resources and services by direct, symmetric interaction between computers. The advance in mobile wireless communication technology and the increasing number of mobile users, extend the arena of P2P computing to encompass mobile devices and wireless networks. The special characteristics of mobile environments, such as highly variable connectivity, disconnection, location-dependency, resource contraints, and diversity in wireless networks as well as carrier-grade performance requirements bring new challenges for research in mobile P2P communication and computing. MP2P'09 is intended to serve as a continuing forum for scientists and engineers in academia and industry to exchange and discuss their experiences, new ideas, and research results about all aspects of mobile P2P computing and communications. It will address the challenges, technologies, and architectures leading to real-world solutions that provide users with direct access and control of their critical peer- based information and services, regardless of location or device. The principal theme of MP2P'09 is the peer-to-peer paradigm as used in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETS), sensor networks, and large-scale heterogeneous overlays. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: - Peer-to-peer overlays for MANETs and sensor networks - Hybrid P2P architectures for integrated MANETs and wide-area networks - Large-scale heterogeneous P2P systems - Mobility in federated overlay architectures - Impact of network mobility on P2P systems and services (mobile IP / MANET) - P2P-based information sensing and fusion - MP2P performance & measurement studies - Semantic routing & overlay routing in MP2P - Delay tolerant MP2P systems - Resource and service discovery in MP2P - Resource exchange mechanisms in MP2P - Peer access and control in mobile environment - Data exchange and rendering techniques for mobile P2P devices - Secure communication protocols for MP2P - Nature-inspired algorithms for MP2P - Novel MP2P applications & services - Theoretical issues on mobile information diffusion - MP2P SIP - MP2P messaging systems, monitoring systems, searching systems, games, etc. - Location dependent MP2P services - MP2P over different bearer services: 2.5/3G (GPRS/UMTS) / 802.11 (WLAN) - MP2P & operator/provider requirements - Reliability and carrier-grade performance of MP2P services Paper Submission: ----------------- Papers must be written in English and should not exceed 5 pages in IEEE proceedings style. Authors MUST submit their papers through the EASYCHAIR web site (http://www.easychair.org/conferences?conf=mp2p09) in three steps: * Creation of a personal account on EASYCHAIR (if the author does not already have one) * Registration of the paper (requiring a short abstract of up to 150 words) * Upload of the paper. Only in pdf format Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. All submissions will be reviewed and selected based on their originality of the paper. Accepted papers must be presented at the workshop and will appear in a combined PerCom 2009 workshop proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society Press. Paper must not be submitted elsewhere. Authors that present a system in their paper are highly encouraged to demonstrate also the system in the demo session of the workshop.
