-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] IEEE JSAC Special issue on Delay and Disruption Tolerant Wireless Communication Datum: Fri, 12 Jan 2007 13:37:10 +0100 Von: Gunnar Karlsson <gk(a)ee.kth.se> Organisation: KTH EE/LCN An: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu <tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu> CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications DELAY AND DISRUPTION TOLERANT WIRELESS COMMUNICATION Modern computer communication has been developed for providing conti- nuous end-to-end connectivity. There are, however, communication services that are tolerant to disruptions and delay and do not require or cannot be given continuous connectivity. It is time to consider the unconnected network. This issue is dedicated to communication over wireless networks with inter- mittent connectivity due to planned or unexpected disruptions that may result in long delays for the communicating parties. Communication dis- ruptions occur both in infrastructure and ad-hoc wireless networks. In both cases, it is possible that mobile nodes cooperatively forward data for one another through their own movements. The mobility patterns of nodes affect thereby both the speed and reliability of data forwarding. Inter- mittent communication occurs also in sensor networks due to, e.g., energy- saving sleep cycles, and in deep-space communication and meteor-burst communication. The communication services that may use such intermittent and high-delay connections are characterized by a low degree of inter- activity, e.g., broadcasting, messaging, and data collection. Opportunistic strategies for caching and communicating may improve the performance in terms of reduced delay and improved probability of delivery. This issue of J-SAC is dedicated to technologies, systems designs and analyses that contribute to the development and understanding of delay and disruption tolerant wireless communication systems. Original contributions, previously unpublished and not currently under review, are solicited in relevant areas including (but not limited to) the following. * Data encoding for partial and unordered delivery * User studies of delay and disruption tolerances * Opportunistic caching and pre-fetching for concealment of service disruptions * Mobility measurements, modeling and performance analysis * Uni-, any-, and multicast routing protocols * Congestion, flow and error control; per-hop and multi-hop solutions * Security, privacy, authenticity and traceability of communication * Energy saving strategies and power management * Applications to personal communication, sensor networks, road-traffic systems and industrial communication Prospective authors should follow the IEEE J-SAC manuscript format described in the Information for Authors under http://www.jsac.ucsd.edu/. All papers should be submitted through CRP in PDF format at http://www.dtnrg.org/jsac07, according to the following timetable: Submission deadline: June 1, 2007 Acceptance Notification: November 1, 2007 Final Manuscript due: January 10, 2008 Publication: 2nd quarter 2008 Guest editors: Kevin Almeroth Kevin Fall Gunnar Karlsson Dep. of Computer Science 2150 Shattuck Avenue School of Electrical Eng.

Prior efforts on wireless networks, especially multi-hop ad hoc networks, have led to significant research contributions that range from fundamental results on theoretical capacity bounds to numerous practical routing and transport protocols. Unlike ad hoc networks, however, mesh networks can serve as access networks that employ multi-hop wireless forwarding by mesh nodes to relay traffic to and from the wired Internet. The unique features of wireless mesh networks pose challenges in designing affordable, reliable, and sustainable network infrastructures. The critical issues span a rich spectrum of issues from interference-aware channel assignment, multi-hop routing, to reliable transport and infrastructure optimization, many of which have to be revisited in this new context. The purpose of this special issue is to archive the state-of-the-art achievements in wireless mesh networking. We solicit original and unpublished research papers in both theoretical studies and practical protocol/architecture designs for wireless mesh networks, as well as prototypes. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: - Theoretical performance analysis - Network capacity and network coverage - Scalable power management and topology control - Cognitive radio-enabled wireless mesh networks - Multi-channel and multi-radio MAC protocols - Scalable and robust routing protocols - Reliable and adaptive transport protocols - Cross-layer design and optimization - New applications over wireless mesh networks - Secure communication protocols - Resource management and traffic control - Heterogeneous wireless mesh networks - Cooperative communication for mesh networks - Efficient transport design - Network operation and management - Mobility management - Testbeds and trial systems Publication Schedules: - Manuscript Due: June 1, 2007 - Acceptance Notification: Oct 15, 2007 - Final Manuscript Due: Dec 1, 2007 - Publication Date: second quarter in 2008 (expected) Submission Guidelines: Only original, unpublished research papers will be considered.

For broadband end-to-end mobile networking, the broadband wired networks (such as IP/MPLS with DWDM optical networks) will be converged with wireless networks (such as IEEE 802.11e Wireless LAN, 802.16 Wireless MAN (WiBro, WiMax) and 3G/4G wireless cellular networks). Also, the IP-based telecommunication network will be converged with broadcast network to provide IP-based high-quality broadband multimedia broadcasting and multicasting. Several countries of strong Internet infrastructure are going to provide initial BcN commercial services soon. For efficient service provisioning on the broadband converged networks, well-designed and implemented network operations and management functions with traffic engineering are essential. ITU-T had been operating a special expert group called FGNGN (Focus Group on Next Generation Networks) to provide the architecture of NGN, and currently working on the network operations and management issues actively in Study Groups SG-13 and SG-11. IETF has some working groups on network operations and managements of IP/MPLS networks, but the operations and management for integrated networking with wired & wireless, telecommunication and broadcasting networks has not been actively covered yet. Following the successful “1st IEEE International Workshop on Broadband Convergence Networks (BcN2006)” (April 7, 2006, Vancouver, Canada, in conjunction with IEEE/IFIP NOMS2006), the goal of this workshop is to gather people with different backgrounds to share the current status of standardization and technology development of BcN, to discuss challenges and possible solutions in the broadband networking for QoS-guaranteed real-time multimedia services on BcN. Areas of interest include the architectures, applications, and management issues of BcN.Topics of interest for this workshop include, but not limited to, the following: - Architecture and Standardization - Applications and Service Provisioning - QoS Management, Traffic Engineering - Inter-domain Networking - QoS-guaranteed multimedia service provisioning across broadband wired & wireless networks - Converged networking issues for telecommunication and broadcasting - Broadband Access networking with hybrid fiber optic and wireless network - Security issues on the convergence networks - Accounting and Billing - Seamless service provisioning with roaming and handover - Regulatory Issues - Automated resource management and service provisioning - Signaling for Application Sessions and Networking - Virtual Networks and Operators *Paper Submission* Authors are requested to submit a paper up to 12 pages (single-spaced single-column pages). The contribution must be original and unpublished. Papers must be submitted online in a PDF format via the JEMS (https://submissoes.sbc.org.br/index.cgi). You can also find the link in the BcN 2007 webpage (http://www.bcn2007.org/). Paper format must follow the LNCS style available from Springer-Verlag (see the author's instructions for Springer's LNCS series). The selected papers will be published in a proceedings with an IEEE ISBN number. *Important Dates* z Submission Deadline: *Jan. 31, 2007* z Notification of acceptance: *Feb. 28, 2007* z Final paper due: March 31, 2007 z Workshop held: May 21 (Monday), 2007 *Workshop Co-Chairs* Young-Tak Kim, Yeungnam Univ., Korea (ytkim(a)yu.ac.kr) Dong-Myun Lee, KT, Korea (dmlee(a)kt.co.kr ) Nazim Agoulmine, University of Evry, France (nazim.agoulmine(a)iup.univ-evry.fr)

Through the use of mobile devices and devices embedded in the surrounding physical environments, users can be provided transparent computing and communication services at all times and in all places. The complexity of providing such services stems from the fact that the communication devices and the objects with which they interact may both be mobile. The implementation of such a paradigm requires advances in wireless network technologies and devices, development of infrastructures supporting cognitive environments, discovery and identification of ubiquitous computing applications and services, and an understanding of the cross-layer interactions between all of these components. The Fourth Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Services (Mobiquitous-07) will provide a forum where practitioners and researchers coming from many areas involved in ubiquitous solutions, design and deployment will be able to interact and exchange experiences needed to build successful ubiquitous systems. Areas addressed by the conference include applications, service-oriented computing, middleware, networking, agents, data management and services, all with special focus on mobility and ubiquitous computing. PAPERS: Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by another conference or journal, are solicited. Technical papers clearly identifying how the specific contributions fit to an overall working solution are particularly of interest. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following feature topics as applied to mobile and ubiquitous environments: - Ubiquitous architectures, systems and applications - Wearable computing and personal area networks - Wireless technologies for mobile and ubiquitous (Bluetooth, ZigBee, 802.15.x, WiFi) - Wireless Internet access in ubiquitous systems - Ad hoc and sensor networks support for ubiquitous computing - Reconfigurability and personalization of wireless networks - Wireless/mobile service management and delivery - Security, privacy and social issues of mobile and ubiquitous systems - Service and knowledge discovery, matching and composition mechanisms - Location-based services and tracking in ubiquitous environments - Context- and location-aware applications - Agent technologies in ubiquitous, wearable, and mobile systems - Context modeling, services and frameworks - Toolkits, testbeds, development environments, and languages for ubiquitous computing - Rapid prototyping of ubiquitous applications - Ontologies for mobile and ubiquitous computing - Mobile and ubiquitous data management and processing - Data replication, migration and dissemination in ubiquitous environments - Queries, transactions and workflows in mobile and ubiquitous environments - Multimodal interfaces (speech, video kinetic, tactile) SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: All paper submissions will be handled electronically (see the conference web page for details).

Through the use of mobile devices and devices embedded in the surrounding physical environments, users can be provided transparent computing and communication services at all times and in all places. The complexity of providing such services stems from the fact that the communication devices and the objects with which they interact may both be mobile. The implementation of such a paradigm requires advances in wireless network technologies and devices, development of infrastructures supporting cognitive environments, discovery and identification of ubiquitous computing applications and services, and an understanding of the cross-layer interactions between all of these components. The Fourth Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Services (Mobiquitous-07) will provide a forum where practitioners and researchers coming from many areas involved in ubiquitous solutions, design and deployment will be able to interact and exchange experiences needed to build successful ubiquitous systems. Areas addressed by the conference include applications, service-oriented computing, middleware, networking, agents, data management and services, all with special focus on mobility and ubiquitous computing. PAPERS: Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by another conference or journal, are solicited. Technical papers clearly identifying how the specific contributions fit to an overall working solution are particularly of interest. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following feature topics as applied to mobile and ubiquitous environments: - Ubiquitous architectures, systems and applications - Wearable computing and personal area networks - Wireless technologies for mobile and ubiquitous (Bluetooth, ZigBee, 802.15.x, WiFi) - Wireless Internet access in ubiquitous systems - Ad hoc and sensor networks support for ubiquitous computing - Reconfigurability and personalization of wireless networks - Wireless/mobile service management and delivery - Security, privacy and social issues of mobile and ubiquitous systems - Service and knowledge discovery, matching and composition mechanisms - Location-based services and tracking in ubiquitous environments - Context- and location-aware applications - Agent technologies in ubiquitous, wearable, and mobile systems - Context modeling, services and frameworks - Toolkits, testbeds, development environments, and languages for ubiquitous computing - Rapid prototyping of ubiquitous applications - Ontologies for mobile and ubiquitous computing - Mobile and ubiquitous data management and processing - Data replication, migration and dissemination in ubiquitous environments - Queries, transactions and workflows in mobile and ubiquitous environments - Multimodal interfaces (speech, video kinetic, tactile) SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: All paper submissions will be handled electronically (see the conference web page for details).
