Our apologies if you have received multiple copies. The 2nd IEEE international Workshop on Heterogeneous Wireless Networks Resource Management and QoS. in conjunction with The 4th IEEE International Conference on Wireless and Mobile Computing, Networking and Communications (WiMob 2008). Avignon, France on 12-14 Oct 2008. http://www.rn.inf.tu-dresden.de/hwn/2008/index.html submission: 14 June 2008 Scope ------ The fourth generation (4G) of wireless communications is expected to integrate a potentially large number of different heterogeneous wireless technologies in what could be considered a huge step forward towards universal wireless access and omnipresent computing through seamless mobility. Even though 4G standard is currently not defined, there are many current outlooks that delineate the vision of the new wireless technologies. Based on the emergent trends of mobile communication, 4G will have larger bandwidth, higher data rates, smoother and quicker handoff and will focus on guaranteeing faultless service and seamless handoff across a multitude of wireless networks. The key concept is integrating the 4G capabilities with all of the existing mobile technologies. Special maneuvers will be necessary amongst different access systems in terms of horizontal (intrasystem) and vertical (inter-system) handoff as well as seamless mobility, Quality of Service (QoS), dependability and security. In this workshop, we solicit high quality papers from leading researchers that present state-of-the-art research in heterogeneous wireless networks dealing with resource management techniques and QoS provisioning. Topics of Interest ------------------ Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: # Interworking with 2.5G, 3G, and other wireless networks # QoS provisioning for heterogeneous wireless networks # End-to-End QoS Architectures # Location, Mobility and Handoff Management # Seamless vertical handoff techniques between different wireless networks # Network selection criteria # Resource management/allocation # Bandwidth adaptation # Power control and management # Load, admission, and flow control # Architecture design alternatives for heterogeneous wireless networks # Performance analysis and experimentation of heterogeneous wirelessnetworks # Pricing and billing issues # Security techniques and methods for heterogeneous wireless networks # Heterogeneous wireless networks applications and measurements # Simulation study of heterogeneous wireless networks # Scalability of heterogeneous wireless networks # Implementation and testbed experiments # Standardization activities for heterogeneous wireless networks # Heterogeneous multi-hop wireless networks Paper Submission ---------------- Submitted papers must represent original material that is not currently under review in any other conference or journal, and has not been previously published.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP - Communications Magazine - Advances in Cooperative and Relay Communications Datum: Wed, 4 Jun 2008 13:54:05 +0800 Von: Chin, Woon Hau <w.h.chin(a)ieee.org> An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> Call for Papers Submission Deadline - 15 June 2008 IEEE Communications Magazine Feature Topic on Advances in Cooperative and Relay Communications In wireless networks, relays have been traditionally used to extend the range of communication systems. However, in recent years, other applications of relay communications have emerged. One such emerging application is to assist in the communication between the source and destination via some cooperation protocol. By controlling medium access between source and relays coupled with the appropriate modulation or coding in such cooperative schemes, it has been found that the diversity of the system can be improved. In multi-user systems, different users can also act as cooperative partners or relays to share resources and assist each other in information transmission, thereby creating a cooperative network. One other emerging application is the exchange of information between multiple users through relay(s). In such cases, by exploiting the knowledge of one's own transmitted signal, the throughput of these systems can be drastically increased. For cooperative and relay communications, the MAC layer also has many unique features. The MAC in this case, is concerned with more than one hop communication, is distributed and cooperative and works for multipoint-to-multipoint communication. The MAC also needs to have knowledge about network topology and account for node mobility. Accordingly, a new design of the MAC layer has to be devised to include new functionalities as well as MAC layer routing. With the large benefits to be reaped from employing cooperative and relay techniques, several standardization groups, such as IEEE 802.16 and IEEE 802.11, have started standardization processes to include such technologies into their prevailing standards. These efforts will no doubt attract even more interests from the academia and industry, advancing cooperative and relay technologies even further in the coming years. With interests from both the research and industrial communities gaining momentum, there is an urgent need to better understand as well as to keep track of cutting edge research in cooperative and relay communications. We plan this special issue to help address that need, as well as to help researchers looking to jump on the bandwagon. Therefore, the special issue will focus on recent advances as well as survey papers in cooperative and relay communications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following topics: . Cooperative algorithms and protocols . Partner(s) selection in cooperative relay and routing . Cooperative resource allocation and management . Relay strategies for cooperative communications . Cooperative and relay technologies applied to WLAN, WMAN and cellular networks . Multidirectional relaying . Distributed coding and modulation . Multiple antenna systems and protocols for cooperative communications . Information theoretic aspects of cooperative communications . MAC issues and MAC layer routing . Cross-layer approaches for joint PHY and MAC optimization Schedule: Full manuscript due: June 15, 2008 Acceptance notification: October 1, 2008 Final manuscript due: December 1, 2008 Publication date: February 2009 Submission: Authors must follow the IEEE Communications Magazine's guidelines for preparation of the manuscript.

This year's workshop emphasizes Service Centric Network Management considering the impact on the system, across the whole information flow from service creation to deployment in the network. This workshop is looking for full papers describing original, previously unpublished research work, experimental efforts, practical experiences with existing systems and industrial developments in the field of autonomous network management. Papers with a deep focus on a specific discipline or stimulated by the synergistic interaction of diverse disciplines are encouraged. Followings is a non-exhaustive list of topics that is relevant to the workshop: Architecture and Systems Topics relating to Autonomic Networks * Cross-layer system architecture design * Middleware and O&M techniques for network management * Resource modeling approaches for network management * Peer-to-peer techniques for autonomic network management * Scalability issues in network management * Security aspects in network management Autonomic Techniques * Adaptive & context-based self-management in networks * Policy (refinement techniques, policy models) * Knowledge based techniques to support autonomics * Data management for real-time dynamic service provisioning * Real-time MIB engineering to provide cross-layer provisioning Aspects of Service Management * Use of semantics to enable service deployment and composition * Automated service composition and orchestration * Automated service provisioning across multiple service providers Case Studies in Existing & Emerging Networks * Lessons, shortcomings and real world experiences with existing network management systems, protocols and architectures. * Experiences with service deployment in challenged networks (ad-hoc, pervasive, sensor etc.) and the implications on the network management plane Important Dates: Paper Submission Deadline: 15 July, 2008 Notification of Acceptance: 15 September, 2008 Camera Ready Deadline: TBA Workshop Date: 30 November, 2008 Workshop Chairs: Raouf Boutaba, University of Waterloo Canada Rolf Stadler, KTH Sweden TPC Chairs: Brian Lee, Ericsson Ireland Research Gerard Parr, University of Ulster, UK Organizing Team: Sidath Handurukande, Ericsson Ireland Research Yangcheng Huang, Ericsson Ireland Research _______________________________________________ acf-members mailing list acf-members(a)cs.tcd.ie https://lists.cs.tcd.ie/mailman/listinfo/acf-members
