The aim is twofold. First, it should provide PhD students in an early phase of their career with the opportunity to discuss these with experts and gain general feedback as well as specific comments on their proposal. Second, this is an excellent opportunity for a young researcher to start a personal network with other PhD students as well as with already established experts. Format ------ The aim of the doctoral colloquium is to discuss research ideas and PhD projects at different - typically - early stages. The colloquium aims at a friendly atmosphere which shall inspire the participants and put them - and their research - in the focus. A panel of experts will discuss the research based on a short presentation. Interactivity and discussion are the goal. In addition to the colloquium a presentation of all participants at the main conference will take place as a poster session. A brief introduction of the topics (One-Minute-Madness) is used to attract conference participants. Submissions ----------- Prospective participants are required to submit three different documents via email at phd-chair(a)netsys2013.de: at the point of submission: 1. Research Statement: a two-page abstract that sketches the research proposal of the PhD student, the contribution to knowledge and how the research will advance the state of the art. 2.

The focus should be on networked systems that communicate wirelessly in a spontaneous way. Providing such a platform should enhance awareness of new trends and approaches in other areas of ad-hoc networking that might be applicable to the own domain. According to this goal, submissions can present both original and novel works including work in progress. However, submissions may also provide a broader picture on the work of a working group or a specific community or raise new issues or challenges that the research community should discuss during the workshop. Authors are invited to submit work on issues related to, but not limited by, the following list of topics: * Basic Technologies (IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth, ZigBee, etc.) and their suitability for ad-hoc networks * Lower layer support for Ad-hoc Networks * Architectures and protocols * Routing mechanisms for ad-hoc networks * QoS in ad-hoc environments * Auto-configuration and inter-networking with other networks (like the Internet) * Security, privacy, and data protection in ad-hoc networks * Scalability and simulations of performance * Energy efficiency * Localization and location-based services in ad-hoc networks * Applications and application architectures (e.g., P2P) for ad-hoc networks * Software platforms and middleware for ad-hoc networks * Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) * Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) * Mesh networks * Ad-hoc in ubiquitous computing scenarios * Authentication, Authorization, Accounting (AAA) * Design and management of ad-hoc networks * Methods, models, and tools for designing, testing, and analyzing ad-hoc networks * Scalability and simulations * Architectures and protocols for large ad-hoc networks * Case-studies and experiences with production-use ad-hoc networks * New application scenarios for ad-hoc networks Workshop Organization Matthias Frank (University of Bonn, Germany) Frank Kargl (University of Ulm, Germany) Burkhard Stiller (University of Zuerich, Switzerland) Submissions Submissions are expected in English, shall follow the IEEE transactions, 2 column, 11 pt format, A4 paper with a maximum of 3 pages extended abstracts that should clearly outline the content of the proposed talk. All submissions will undergo a relevancy check. If more submissions are received than presentation slots are available, workshop chairs will select submissions based on relevancy to the workshop and the potential to raise discussions among participants. During the event, each presenter will be given a 20 min. slot to present his/her topic followed by a 20 min. slot for discussions. This stresses that talks have the main purpose to stimulate discussions. Accepted abstracts will be published online as a technical report of University of Ulm (Ulmer Informatik Berichte). Submissions in PDF format only and/or possible questions should be directed to the workshop co-chairs at wman2013(a)cs.uni-bonn.de. Further information can be found at http://www.netsys2013.de/ws-wman.html. Important Dates November 30, 2012: Deadline for submitting extended abstracts December 23, 2012: Notification of acceptance -----------------------------------------------------------------------
