-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] Call for Papers: MobiArch 2009 (co-located with ACM MobiSys) Datum: Mon, 02 Feb 2009 15:05:55 +0200 Von: Joerg Ott <jo(a)netlab.tkk.fi> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu Call for Papers The 4th ACM International Workshop on Mobility in the Evolving Internet Architecture (MobiArch 2009) ----------------------------------------------------- Co-located with MobiSys, 22 June 2009, Krakow, Poland http://user.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/~mobiarch/2009/ With the recent development of technologies in wireless access and mobile devices, user, terminal, and network mobility has become an indispensable component of today's Internet vision, and it is likely to continue in the near future, while affecting the whole architectural design of the future Internet. Yet, issues like efficient mobility management and optimization, locator-identifier split, multi-homing, security, wireless access and related operational/deployment concerns are still in their early stages of development. Moreover, the Internet architecture, its end-to-end principles, and business models will require rethinking due to the massive penetration of mobility into the Internet. For instance, an appropriate system that allows communicating with a mobile host requires addressing several fundamental issues with the Internet architecture, such as ability to locate the mobile host/service, preserving ongoing communications upon changes of locations, as well as efficient and secure handover management. As another example, the emerging wireless technologies may pose additional challenges to the Internet architecture since they introduce design principles different from the original Internet. MobiArch 2009 welcomes submissions, from both researchers and practitioners, in exploration of recent advances in architectures, protocols, and experiences with emerging technologies on various mobility issues over the Internet, with an emphasis on wireless infrastructures and mobility patterns for mobility support, new mobility protocols, service discovery, routing and location management, mobile network performance evaluation and modelling, multi-homing, security, architectural impacts and deployment considerations. Furthermore, the potential of usability of mobility services for connecting people and devices in developing regions of the world into the Internet infrastructure will be also explored. Topics of MobiArch 2009 cover all aspects of architectural issues and system support for mobility in the Internet, including but not limited to: * Impacts of new wireless technologies/services, networking technologies, and mobility patterns on the Internet architecture * Architectures and protocols for mobility support in the Internet, ranging from approaches in link, network, transport to session/application layers and cross-layer design * Location management, routing, locator/identifier split, multi-homing and load sharing issues * Security and privacy issues in mobility networks and impacts to Internet architecture * Architectures and mechanisms for wireless/mobile connectivity in extreme environments (e.g., remote areas, developing countries) * Performance issues with mobility in the Internet * QoS and middlebox issues in mobility networks and impacts to Internet architecture * Economic and deployment issues of mobility solutions (infrastructure and devices) * Impact of social aspects on mobility architectures, mobile application and protocol design * Technologies for mobile wireless access and interactions Submissions must present original results. Selected papers will be forward-looking, describe their relationship to existing work, and have impact and implications for ongoing or future research. Submitted papers must be no more than 6 pages long, two columns, with no characters in smaller than 10 point fonts, and must fit properly on US "Letter"-sized paper (8.5x11 inches). Margins must be of 1 inch on all edges (top, bottom, left, and right) of each page. All paper submission will be handled via EDAS (http://edas.info/7188). Papers will be reviewed single blind. Important Dates: Submission Deadline: 22 February 2009 Acceptance Notification: 31 March 2009 Camera Ready Due: 15 April 2009 Workshop Date: 22 June 2009 TPC Chairs: Joerg Ott Helsinki University of Technology (TKK) Kun Tan Microsoft Research Asia For more information, contact workshop co-chairs at mobiarch-chairs(a)informatik.uni-goettingen.de. _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

[Tccc] CFP: Special Session on "QoS Provision in Wireless Networks" in MOBILIGHT 2009
by Thomas Lagkas 02 Feb '09

02 Feb '09

(Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message) C A L L F O R P A P E R S ============================= Special Session on "QoS Provision in Wireless Networks" organized in conjunction with The 1st International Conference on Mobile Lightweight Wireless Systems (MOBILIGHT 2009) 18-20 May 2009, Athens, Greece http://www.mobilight.org/ Important Dates: ================ Full Paper submission due: February 26, 2009 Notification of acceptance by: March 8, 2009 Camera ready paper due: March 15, 2009 Scope: ====== Today, wireless networks are considered to be a significant and emerging part of the communication networks field. Modern wireless networks must support all kinds of services, and perform similarly to the wired networks. The pertinent example of these demands is the need to efficiently serve the traffic generated by the emerging multimedia network applications. Thus, wireless networks have to be able to support Quality of Service (QoS). QoS support in wireless networks is a challenging issue. Significant research has taken place the last years on this area. The Special Session will try to analyze modern methods of providing QoS support in wireless networks, explain all related issues, highlight the problems that arise when trying to provide different and demanding services over wireless networks, present the theoretical background, bring out related solutions given so far, and moreover, exhibit the latest research concepts and relevant ideas regarding near-future implementations. Topics: =================== Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - The need for QoS support / Modern wireless network applications that require QoS support - Traffic characteristics / classification / multimedia codecs features - Cross-layer solutions - Medium access control issues / concepts / algorithms / MAC protocols QoS support fundamentals (traffic differentiation, packet prioritization, resource allocation) - Current technologies and representative examples of QoS supportive wireless networks [WPAN / WLAN / WWAN protocols, Cellular telecommunication networks, Satellite communications] - QoS aware simulation techniques for wireless networks - QoS support at the physical layer - Power saving mechanisms - Future integrated solutions (e.g. 4G networks) Paper submission: ================= All submitted papers should describe original, previously unpublished work and will be subject to a rigorous peer-review. Accepted papers will be published by Springer in the MOBILIGHT Conference Proceedings and made available online through the Lecture Notes of ICST (LNICST). Please visit http://www.mobilight.org/ for submission guidelines.
