-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: IEEE International Workshop on Opportunistic Networking (WON-09) (Deadline Extended to Nov. 15) Datum: Sun, 09 Nov 2008 11:10:23 +0800 Von: Ling-Jyh Chen <cclljj(a)iis.sinica.edu.tw> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this call for papers ================================================================== Call for Papers The 2nd IEEE International Workshop on Opportunistic Networking (WON-09) to be held in conjunction with The IEEE 23th International Conference on Advanced Information Networking and Applications (AINA-09), Bradford, UK, May 26-29, 2009 http://nrl.iis.sinica.edu.tw/WON09/ ================================================================== Aims and Scope --------------- With the explosive deployment of mobile wireless devices recently, Opportunistic Networking is becoming an increasingly popular area in networking research, in which the assumption of having end-to-end paths between the source and the destination is relaxed. Such networks fall into the fields of mobile ad-hoc networking (MANET) and delay-tolerant networking (DTN).Opportunistic Networks enable user communication in an environment where disconnection and reconnection are common and link performance is extremely dynamic. They are very suitable to support the situation where network infrastructure has limited coverage and users have "islands of connectivity". By taking advantage of device mobility, information can be stored and forwarded over a wireless link when connection 'opportunities' arise (e.g. an appropriate network contact is met). In this view, traditional Internet connectivity can be considered as a special case of connection opportunity. With numerous emerging applications, Opportunistic Networks allow a huge number of devices to communicate end-to-end without requiring any pre-existing infrastructure and are very suitable to support pervasive networking scenarios. Topics of Interest ----------------- Original papers addressing applications and architecture, systems and protocols design, development and analysis, in all areas related to Opportunistic Networking are solicited. Papers that bring out interesting and novel ideas at an early stage are favored over highly-polish journal-style results. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Advanced technologies for enabling opportunistic communication * Architectures for opportunistic networks * Applications for opportunistic networks * Biological and social models for opportunistic communication * Middleware services in opportunistic networks * Dissemination and replication techniques for opportunistic networks * Network and resource management techniques for opportunistic networks * Trust and cooperation in opportunistic networks * Security issues in opportunistic networks * Transport and reliability issues in opportunistic networks * Routing issues in opportunistic networks * MAC layer issues and physical layer for opportunistic networks * Simulation and modeling of Opportunistic networks * Tools and techniques for designing, analyzing and building opportunistic networks * Opportunistic networks testbeds and measurements Submissions and Proceedings ------------------------------ Authors are invited to submit an electronic version of original, unpublished manuscripts via ISAS website (http://nrl.iis.sinica.edu.tw/WON09/ISAS/). The manuscript should be written in English and follow IEEE two-column format with single-spaced, ten-point font in the text. The maximum manuscript length is six (6) pages including figures and references. All submitted papers will be refereed by reviewers in terms of correctness, originality, technical strength, significance and quality of presentation. The CD proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press and available online through IEEE Xplore. Important Dates --------------- Submission Deadline: Nov. 15, 2008 Authors Notification: Dec. 6, 2008 Authors Registration: Dec. 15, 2008 Final Manuscript Due: Dec. 22, 2008 General Chair Kun-chan Lan, National Cheng Kung University, Taiwan Program Chair Ling-Jyh Chen, Academia Sinica, Taiwan Program Committee Members Nilanjan Banerjee, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA Jun-Hong Cui, University of Connecticut, USA Jyh-How Huang, University of Colorado at Boulder, USA Robert Hsieh, Deutsche Telekom Laboratories, Germany Salil Kanhere, University of New South Wales, Australia Dirk Kutscher, Bremen University, Germany Lavy Libman, National ICT Australia, Australia Joerg Ott, Helsinki University of Technology, Finland Marco Roccetti, University of Bologna, Italy Pablo Vidales, Deutsche Telekom Laboratories, Germany Guang Yang, Nokia Research Center, Palo Alto, USA _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

======================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS Pervasive/Ubiquitous Computing Workshop (PUC 2009) (http://www.cis.uoguelph.ca/~denko/IWCmcindex.html) To be held in conjunction with IWCMC 2009, June 21-24, 2009, Leipzig, Germany (http://iwcmc.com/index.htm) ======================================================== Aims and scope of the workshop ============================== At the same time as the number of connections, wired or wireless for each electronic device is increasing the number of electronic devices surrounding each individual is also multiplying. This will pave the way for the realisation of pervasive/ubiquitous computing where the user is making use of many devices and systems simultaneously, in the course of daily activities, without having to make effort or even being aware of them. These devices and systems will then collaborate and form together an ambient intelligence that offers personalised services to the user. However, in order to realise this exciting vision, it is necessary to address and find solutions to many challenges such as seamless access, device and service discovery, service continuity, middleware for pervasive computing, identity, privacy, security, trust, etc. The IWCMC 2009 Pervasive/Ubiquitous Computing Workshop will serve as an ideal meeting place for developers, researchers, practitioners, and educators who are interested or working within the field of mobile, pervasive/ubiquitous computing. It will, hopefully, act as a catalyst for the realisation of the vision of pervasive computing. Topics of interest ================== Submissions are solicited on, but not limited to, the following topics: Technologies and devices for pervasive computing Applications and services of pervasive computing technologies Seamless access and Service continuity in pervasive computing Customisation and personalisation of services Context-aware services Device and service discovery in pervasive computing Middleware for pervasive computing Interfaces and modes of interactions between people and pervasive computing devices, applications or environments Tools, infrastructures, architectures and techniques for designing, implementing & deploying pervasive computing applications Evaluations and evaluation methods, for assessing the impact of pervasive computing devices, applications or environments Privacy, security, trust & social issues and implications of pervasive computing Identity management in pervasive computing Intelligent and smart environments Opportunistic pervasive computing Autonomic management of ubiquitous systems Submission Guidelines ===================== The IWCMC 2009 Pervasive/Ubiquitous Computing Workshop welcomes novel and unpublished papers in the field of Pervasive/Ubiquitous Computing. 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). The proceedings of the workshop will be published as part of IWCMC2009 main conference, by IEEE Communications Society and IEEE Digital Library. Selected papers will be further considered for possible publication in a Special Issue of an International Journal (pending) after further extension. 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://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=6827&. Important Dates ================ Paper Submission Deadline: 20 December 2008 Paper Acceptance Notification: 25 March 2009 Camera-ready Paper Submissions: 15 April 2009 Registration Deadline for Authors: 15 April 2009 Workshop Chairs ================ Do van Thanh, Telenor R&I, Norway, thanh-van.do[AT]telenor.com Mieso Denko, University of Guelph, Canada, denko[AT]cis.uoguelph.ca Technical Program Committee (in progress) ========================================= Han-Chieh Chao, National Ilan University, Taiwan Jianhua He, Swansea University, UK Thuan Do, Linus AS, Norway Paal Engelstad, University of Oslo / Telenor R&I, Norway Michael Gardner, University of Essex, UK Mario Freire, University of Beira Interior, Portugal Boning Feng, Oslo University College, Norway Dong Seong Kim, Duke University, USA Tore Jonvik, Oslo University College, Norway Zakaria Maamar, Zayed University, UAE Petri Pulli, University of Oulu, Finland Var Jorstad, Ubisafe AS, Norway Isaac Woungang, Ryerson University, Canada Ching-Hsien Hsu, Chung Hua University, Taiwan Zheng Yan, Nokia, Finland _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

Best Regards, ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Third IEEE International Workshop on Wireless Mesh and Ad Hoc Networks (WiMAN'09) June 26, 2009, Montreal, Quebec, Canada in conjunction with ICDCS 2009 http://www.cse.nd.edu/~darts/wiman09.html Submission Deadline: December 7, 2008 *************************************************************************************************** Recently, wireless mesh networking is attracting significant interest from academia, industry, and standard organizations. With several favorable characteristics, such as dynamic self-organization, self-configuration, self-healing, easy maintenance, high scalability and reliable services, wireless mesh networks have been advocated as a cost-effective approach to support high-speed last mile connectivity and ubiquitous broadband access in the context of home networking, enterprise networking, or community networking. Despite recent advances, and the technical accumulations from more than a decade's research effort in mobile ad hoc networks, many research issues remain in all protocol layers of wireless mesh networks. For example, the introducing of mixed (infrastructure and ad hoc) architecture, multi-radio, multi-channel, and multi-antenna, have brought new challenges in the design of physical, MAC, and routing protocols. New application scenarios, such as all-wireless office, are urging researchers to address enhanced QoS support and various security issues in the design of different protocol layers for wireless mesh networks. This workshop aims to bring together the technologies and researchers who share interest in the area of wireless mesh and ad hoc networks. The main purpose is to promote discussions of research and relevant activities in the design of architectures, protocols, algorithms, services, and applications for wireless networks. It also aims at increasing the synergy between academic and industry professionals working in this area. We plan to seek papers that address theoretical, experimental, and work in-progress at the all layers of wireless mesh and ad hoc networks, from application layer to the physical layer. Topics covered by the workshop will include, but are not limited to, the following: - Multi-radio and multi-channel wireless mesh networking - Multi-hop wireless communications and ad hoc networking - MAC protocols (IEEE 802.11, 802.15, 802.16, 802.20, and beyond) - Routing, scheduling, and channel assignment protocols - Quality of Services provisioning - Multimedia communications over mesh and ad hoc networks - Network deployment, localization, and synchronization - Topology construction and maintenance - Modeling and performance evaluations - Cross layer optimizations - Power-aware and energy-efficient protocols and algorithms - Intelligent system techniques for mesh and ad hoc networks - Testbed, prototype, and practical systems - Novel applications of mesh and ad hoc networks - Vehicular mesh and ad hoc networks - Wireless sensor networks - Self-adaptive and self-organizing wireless networking systems Important Dates ----------------------- - Paper submission due: December 7, 2008 - Acceptance notification: February 7, 2009 - Camera-ready due: March 7, 2009 - Workshop: June 26, 2009 Submissions and Publications -------------------------------------------- Authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting original unpublished research and recent developments in the topics related to the workshop. Submissions should include an abstract, key words, the e-mail address of the corresponding author. The length of the papers should be limited to 6 pages in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font). Authors must submit their papers through the CMT conference management site (https://cmt.research.microsoft.com/WIMAN2009). Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register and attend the workshop to present the work. All papers will be peer reviewed and the reviewers' comments will be provided to the authors. All accepted papers will be published in workshop proceedings by IEEE Computer Society Press and IEEE online library.
