-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] International Workshop on Planning and Optimization of Wireless Communication Networks (PlanNet 2011) Datum: Fri, 28 May 2010 09:18:56 +0100 Von: Jie Zhang <Jie.Zhang(a)beds.ac.uk> An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> CC: Jie Zhang <Jie.Zhang(a)beds.ac.uk> =============================================================================================== International Workshop on Planning and Optimization of Wireless Communication Networks (PlanNet 2011), June 9, 2011 In conjunction with IEEE ICC 2011, Kyoto, Japan ================================================================================================ ------------------ Call for Papers ------------------ The goal of future wireless networks is to provide ubiquitous connections and support high data rate demand. The WiMAX, LTE, and LTE-Advanced standardizations have already moved toward this direction but still require significant improvements. Network planning and optimization faces many challenges arising from the use of new air interfaces and new technologies (e.g., MIMO, smart antennas, cooperative relay), the mix of voice, video and data traffic, the co-existence of different RATs (Radio Access Technologies), the growing importance of indoor coverage and the paradigm shifts (e.g., femtocells). The future wireless networks cannot operate efficiently, unless these challenges are properly addressed. This workshop will bring together both the mobile communications industry (operators, telecom vendors, radio network planning and optimization consulting firms and tool producers) and academia to present and discuss the problems, challenges, directions, and state-of-art in the fields of future wireless communication networks deployment, planning and optimization. Topics of interest relating to network planning and optimization and future wireless communications are (but not limited to): 1. Automatic UMTS/HSPA/LTE/LTE-A/WiFi/WiMAX radio network planning and optimization methods 2. The use of measurements in radio network planning and optimisation 3. Indoor network planning and optimization (BBU+RRU, repeaters, DAS, picocells and femtocells) 4. Heterogeneous wireless networks (UMTS/HSPA/LTE/WiFi/WiMAX/DVB) simulation, planning and optimization 5. Self-configuration, self-optimization and self-healing in LTE and LTE-Advanced networks 6. Traffic modeling and real network traffic scenarios PlanNet2011 accepts only novel, previously unpublished papers. Submissions must include an abstract, five to ten keywords, the e-mail address of the corresponding author and should not exceed 6 pages, including tables and figures (up to two extra pages at additional cost) in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font). Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register for the conference and present the work. Submissions will be conducted electronically on the conference website: http://www.comsoc.org/confs/icc/2011/index.php . ------------------ Important Dates ------------------ Paper submission: Oct. 15, 2010 Notification: January 11, 2011 Camera ready: February 11, 2011 -------------------- Workshop Chairs -------------------- Prof. Jie Zhang, CWiND, University of Bedfordshire, UK Prof. Lingyang Song, Peking University, China Dr Hui Song, Ranplan Wireless Network Design Ltd, UK Website (under construction): http://www.beds.ac.uk/research/irac/cwind/PlanNet2011 Best regards, Jie ================================== In the book "Femtocells: Technologies and Deployment", we provide you an in-depth guide on 3G/4G femtocells: http://eu.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-0470742984,descCd-descrip… ----------------------------------------------- Jie Zhang (PhD) Professor of Wireless Communications & Networks Director, Centre for Wireless Network Design (CWiND) Dept. of Computer Science & Technology University of Bedfordshire Luton, LU1 3JU UK E: jie.zhang(a)beds.ac.uk T: +44 (0)1582 743288 W: www.beds.ac.uk/departments/computing/staff/jie-zhang ----------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

It was requested that we extend the abstract registration deadline for CHANTS 2010, so we have re-opened abstract registration and extended paper submission deadlines by a week. The new deadlines are below, and the original CFP is attached. Thank you, Brenton Walker Abstract Registration: 28 May 2010 Submission Deadline: 4 June 2010 Demo Submission: 18 June 2010 ========================================================================= CALL FOR PAPERS Fifth Workshop on Challenged Networks (CHANTS 2010) Co-located with MobiCom 2010, 24 September 2010, Chicago, Illinois, USA http://dtnbone.umiacs.umd.edu/chants2010 ========================================================================= Challenged networks comprise those situations where communication is desired, but traditional internet protocol architectures fail to provide it effectively. Such networks may be characterized by a heterogeneous mix of nodes, nodal churn, and widely varying network conditions. Common examples of challenged networks include high delay environments such as inter-planetary networks, limited power environments such as sensor and wildlife monitoring networks, and communication in settings that lack infrastructure such as rural and remote areas, and military battlefields. Challenged networks may also be found in everyday settings, when access to traditional infrastructure is restricted, expensive, overly complex, or rapidly changing. The goal of the challenged network engineer is to design and implement systems for effective and efficient communication in this diverse range of conditions. The workshop solicits papers and demos relating to the following topics: * Architecture, design, implementation, and evaluation of communication systems for challenged networks * Analysis and characterization of challenged networks and protocols * Case studies involving challenged network solutions in various stages of development or use * Delay/disruption-tolerant networking (DTNs) * Applications in challenged networks * Configuration, management, and monitoring of challenged networks * Security concerns and solutions in challenged networks * Test and simulation tools for evaluating challenged network systems * Applications of challenged networking techniques to communication in daily life Selected papers will be forward-looking, will describe their relationship to existing work, and will have implications for ongoing or future research. We aim to accept approximately 12 papers, and to have a highly interactive workshop. Demos have been an integral part of CHANTS, and we aim to accept up to ten demos. Paper authors who can also run a demo of their work are encouraged to do so. In exceptional cases where live demos are not practical, poster or video presentations are acceptable. Submission Instructions: ------------------------ Submitted papers must be no more than 8 pages long, and should adhere to the standard ACM conference proceedings format http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates. Paper submissions will be handled via EDAS http://edas.info/N8985 Demo abstracts (to be published as part of the proceedings) shall be at most 3 pages plus a one page description of the precise setup and requirements. Demo proposals should be emailed to Earl Oliver by 18 June. NOTE: Demo submitters should expect to receive an acknowledgment of their submission from Earl. Important Dates: ---------------- Abstract Registration: 28 May 2010 (was 21 May) Submission Deadline: 4 June 2010 (was 28 May) Demo Submission: 18 June 2010 Acceptance Notification: 1 July 2010 Camera Ready Due: 15 July 2010 Co-chairs: ---------- Pan Hui Deutsche Telekom Laboratories Pan.Hui_at_telekom.de Brenton Walker Lab for Telecommunications Sciences brenton_at_ltsnet.net Demo Chair: ----------- Earl Oliver University of Waterloo eaoliver_at_uwaterloo.ca _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Call for Papers: REALWSN 2010 Datum: Tue, 25 May 2010 09:01:40 +0200 Von: Thiemo Voigt <thiemo(a)sics.se> An: Thiemo <thiemo(a)sics.se> Call for Papers ============ The Fourth Workshop on Real-World Wireless Sensor Networks 16-17 December, 2010 Colombo, Sri Lanka http://www.ucsc.cmb.ac.lk/realwsn10/ We are excited to announce that the fourth Workshop on Real-World Wireless Sensor will be held in Colombo, Sri Lanka, in December 2010. The purpose of the fourth Workshop on Real-World Wireless Sensor Networks is to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the area of sensor networks, with focus on real-world experiments or deployments of wireless sensor networks. When working with real-world experiments or deployments, many new issues arise: the network environment may be composed of a variety of different technologies, leading to very heterogeneous network structures; software development for large scale networks poses new types of problems; prototype networks may differ significantly from the deployed system; actual sensor network deployments may need a complex combination of autonomous and manual configuration. Furthermore, results obtained through simulation are typically not directly applicable to operational networks and it is therefore imperative for the community to produce results from experimental research. Authors are invited to submit papers (12 pages, Springer format, 9 or 10 point font size) for presentation at the workshop. Papers will be selected based on originality, technical merit and relevance. Note that we will organize a poster and demo session as well. The deadline will be in the middle of September. All topics pertaining to real-world wireless sensor networks are of interest, including but not limited to: * Experiences with real-world deployments * Experimental validation/refutation of previous simulation results obtained by others * Real-world performance of self-organization and self-management * Debugging, testing, and management * Deployment and configuration * Applications in medicine, industry, science, environmental monitoring, etc. * Security and trust * Scalability in practice * Development and prototyping platforms * Operating systems, sensor network programming paradigms, and languages * Middleware for heterogeneous networks * Real-time and dependability issues * Hardware support for real-world sensor networks * Robustness at all levels: communication, software, hardware * Energy efficient protocols * Hardware and software methods for energy measurement and profiling Important dates: * Electronic submissions due: July 16, 2010 * Notification of acceptance: September 10, 2010 * Camera-ready copy due: October 8, 2010 * Workshop: 16-17 December, 2010 Organizers: Workshop Chair: * Thiemo Voigt, Swedish Institute of Computer Science, Sweden Technical program committee chairs: * Peter Corke, Queensland University of Technology, Australia * Pedro José Marron, University of Duisburg-Essen and Fraunhofer IAIS, Germany Local organizing committee: * A.
