International World Wide Web Conference, die diesmal in New York u.a. wieder mit dem Spezialthema Education / E-Learning stattfindet, als Anregung zur Einreichung und Weiterverteilung. Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Wolfgang Nejdl ================================================================== Thirteenth International World Wide Web Conference May 2004, New York EDUCATION TRACK The World Wide Web has caused a revolution in the way we teach and learn. The technology enables us to provide interactive learning material in new ways, to support learning collaboration and learning communities, to provide personalized learning experience, and to incorporate diverse re-usable learning objects into the local learning experience. Furthermore it provides the possibility to create new learning designs to make learning more flexible, adaptable, attractive and accessible to learners. To make these and other experiences possible, many educational and training projects do not just bring new learning materials or designs to the Web but also contribute quite a few Web-related methodologies or technology. The WWW2003 Education Track is aimed at researchers who wish to share innovative experiences and research results that are (at least partially) domain independent and that can thus benefit other teachers and learners who wish to get more out of the Web. Relevant topics include, but are not limited to: - Web educational portal and learning management systems - Authoring of Web-based learning material - Architectures and designs for web-based learning delivery environments - Identification, reuse and granularity issues of learning objects - Business models for the exchange of learning objects - Metadata specifications and standards for learning objects - Integrating (Web-based) multimedia in educational applications - Student modeling in open learning environments - (On-line) adaptation to learner's knowledge, goals, interest and learning style - Learning technology specifications & standards for interoperability - Web log mining applied to student performance data - Intellectual property issues arising from the use of learning objects - Agents in Web-based teaching and learning - Social, cultural and multilingual issues in Web-based learning - Case studies in the implementation and use of educational applications in a Web-based environment - Distributed and P2P-based learning repositories - Integration of web-based learning with enterprise systems - Empirical studies of web-based educational systems - IR and text classification methods in open learning environments - Collaboration and communities in web-based educational environments - Data protection and privacy in Web-based education and training Organization / Co-Chairs: Peter Brusilovsky, University of Pittsburgh, USA Wolfgang Nejdl, University of Hannover / L3S, Germany Program Committee Helen Ashman, University of Nottingham, UK Borka Blazic, JSI, Slovenia Jacqueline Bourdeau, LICEF, Canada Paul de Bra, Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands Ricardo Conejo, University of Malaga, Spain Hugh Davis, University of Southampton, UK Erik Duval, University of Leuven, Belgium Monique Grandbastien, France Joerg Haake, FU Hagen, Germany Judy Kay, University of Sydney, Australia Alfred Kobsa, University of California at Irvine, USA Janet Kolodner, Georgia Tech, USA Rob Koper, Open University, Netherlands Lisa Neal, EDS, USA Melissa Lee Price, Staffordshire University, UK Juan Quemada, UPM, Spain Daniel Rehak, Carnegie Mellon University, USA Jeremy Roschelle, SRI, USA Vittorio Scarano, University of Salerno, Italy Peter Scott, Knowledge Media Institute / Open University, UK Ralf Steinmetz, TU Darmstadt, Germany Rudi Studer, University of Karlsruhe, Germany Dan Suthers, University of Hawaii, USA Vincent Wade, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland More information: http://www2004.org/

Lille 1 To: <tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu> Please accept our apologies in case you receive this information from multiple sources. ================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS FINAL EXTENSION *** Paper submission deadline extended to September 10, 2003 *** WWAN 2004 International Workshop on Wireless Ad Hoc Networking http://www.lifl.fr/RD2P/WWAN2004 to be held in conjunction with The 24th International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems (ICDCS-2004) Tokyo, Japan, March 23-26, 2004 http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/icdcs04 http://www.icdcs2004.org Wireless networks and mobile computing research has until recently concentrated on single-hop networks (network nodes communicating directly to a fixed infrastructure), such as cellular or satellite systems. Ad hoc networking covers multi-hop scenarios (network nodes communicating via other network nodes) such as conference, hospital, battlefield, rescue, monitoring scenarios. Wireless ad-hoc networks are formed by a set of hosts that communicate with each other over a wireless channel. Each node has the ability to communicate directly with another node in its physical neighborhood. They operate in a self-organized and decentralized manner and message communication takes place via multi-hop spreading. A packet is sent to its target node through a set of intermediate nodes that act as routers. Particular ad hoc network systems include packet radio networks, sensor networks, personal communication systems, rooftop networks, and wireless local area networks. This workshop covers the area of ad hoc networking, from physical issues up to applications aspects. In particular, it will cover physical, data link, network and transport layers, as well as applications, security, simulation and power management issues in sensor, local area, personal, and mobile ad hoc networks. It is the goal of this workshop to review ad hoc protocols and models and to reflect the latest in the state of the art in ad hoc networks. It seeks to provide up to date information on research and development activities in rapidly growing area of ad hoc networks. Topics of Interest We are seeking papers that describe original and unpublished contributions addressing various aspects of ad hoc networking. Possible topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Applications and history of ad hoc networks, - Physical layer of ad hoc networks, - Pervasive and wearable computing, - IEEE 801.11 and Bluetooth based medium access control, - Methods and tools for ad hoc networks simulation, - Analytical, mobility and validation models for ad hoc networks, - Hybrid networks and wireless internet, - Security in ad hoc networks, - Data management issues, query processing, data delivery, - Routing, broadcasting and multicasting in ad hoc networks, - Energy-efficient protocols for ad hoc networks, - Quality of service in medium access control and routing, - Topology construction and maintenance in ad hoc networks.

Integration of these different technologies will be an essential trend in the near future. In such a heterogeneous environment, the "mobility and resource management" issue becomes very critical, particularly for the QoS support with various kinds of services. Not only user mobility and resource provisioning within a single network should be considered, but also seamless cross network services and interactions should be provided. Many issues need to be addressed for mobility and resource management in heterogeneous wireless networks, including the integration of the mobility protocols adopted in different network; the impacts of user mobility on and the integration with network resource management and power consumption of handheld devices; support of IP protocols on mobile computing systems for seamless tier mobility. Furthermore, security and privacy need to be addressed for roaming users from network to network. Modeling technologies and performance analysis are needed to address new types of mobility and resource management in heterogeneous networks. Topics of Interest This special issue is targeted at the above issues related to mobility and resource management. Authors are invited to submit previously unpublished papers to this special issue. Topics include, but are not limited to: (a) Mobility and resource management schemes for future telecommunications systems (including UMTS, cdma-2000, and TD-SCDMA) (b) Impact of mobility on and integration with resource management (c) Impact of mobility on power consumption and strategy for energy conservation (d) Mobile IP and SIP mobility (e) Security and privacy Issues in mobility management (f) Mobility and resource aware applications (g) Analytical modeling and performance analysis Submission Instruction All submissions should adhere to the style of IEEE Wireless Communications Magazine. Guidelines for prospective authors can be found on-line at http://www.comsoc.org/pubs/pcm/pub_guidelines.html. Electronic submissions are accepted only in Postscript and PDF formats and should be sent to ieee-wc-mr(a)csie.ntu.edu.tw directly.
