Now … [View More]that some of the fundamental issues and challenges of ad hoc networking have been clearly assessed, the focus is partially shifting to new issues, which include application scenarios (road safety, disaster recovery, sensors and actuators, etc.), autonomous organization and operation, optimization and control, service creation and support, middleware. Moreover, wireless MESH networking is emerging as an "ad hoc spin-off" aimed at extending and integrating the multi-hop paradigm with more traditional networking, which poses new and exciting technical challenges. Med-Hoc-Net 2008 is the major annual international workshop aiming to serve as a platform for researchers and visionaries from academia, research labs, and industry from all over the world. Sharing ideas, views, results, and experiences in the field of wireless multi-hop networking is what Med-Hoc-Net 2008 intends to be about. Anything from theoretical and experimental achievements, to innovative ad hoc systems, prototyping efforts, and case studies is of interest to the Med-Hoc-Net community. The papers solicited in Med-Hoc-Net 2008 cover a variety of topics related to ad hoc and MESH networks, including but not limited to: - Novel multi-hop wireless network architectures - Routing algorithms and protocols - MAC protocols, scheduling, power control and radio resource sharing - Transport layer protocols for multi-hop networks - Middleware for ad hoc networks - Application driven architectures and protocols - Sensor network applications and protocols - Vehicular networks - Integration of ad hoc networks with wireless access networks - Implementations, testbeds, and prototypes - Technology related issues (IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth, ZigBee, IEEE 802.16, IEEE 802.20, etc.) - Self organization and network reconfiguration - Optimization models and algorithms - Resource and service discovery - Call admission and traffic shaping policies for ad-hoc networks - Use of advanced antenna technologies (MIMO, beam forming, etc.) - QoS support - Security and privacy The members of program committee will referee all papers, and accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings by Springer Science-Business Media (SSBM) in LNCS or IFIP Series. Submitted manuscripts must be formatted according to the SSBM IFIP Series formats (URL: http://springer.com/series/6102).

CALL FOR PAPERS The Fifth Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Services (MobiQuitous 2008) July 21-25, 2008, Dublin, Ireland http://www.mobiquitous.org Sponsored by ICST Technically-sponsored by Create-Net IMPORTANT DATES Workshop proposals: March 1, 2008 Paper registration: March 8, 2008 Paper submission: March 15, 2008 Notification of acceptance: May 4, 2008 Camera-ready version: May 18, 2008 THEME Combinations of mobile … [View More]and ubiquitous computing are becoming increasingly present in our daily life. Through the use of mobile devices embedded in the surrounding physical environment, users can be provided with 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. Their implementation 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 Fifth Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Services (MobiQuitous 2008) 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 systems, applications, service-oriented computing, middleware, networking, agents, data management and services, all with special focus on mobility and ubiquitous computing. TOPICS OF INTEREST 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 system are particularly of interest. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following: - Ubiquitous architectures, systems and applications - Wearable computing and personal area networks - Wireless technologies (Bluetooth, ZigBee, 802.15.x, WiFi, WiMAX) - Wireless Internet access in ubiquitous systems - Ad hoc and sensor network 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 Paper submission will be handled electronically (see the conference web page for details). Authors should prepare an Adobe Acrobat PDF version of their full paper. Papers must not exceed 10 pages double column (US Letter size, 8.5 x 11 inches) including text, figures and references. The font size must be at least 10 points. PUBLICATION All submitted papers will be rigorously reviewed by the international technical program committee. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. Papers of particular merit will be proposed for publication in the ACM/Kluwer Mobile Networks and Applications (MONET) journal. WORKSHOPS Several workshops will be run in conjunction with the conference. The purpose of these workshops is to discuss work in progress and explore opportunities for new research related to mobile and ubiquitous systems. Proposals for workshops should be at most four pages in length and should be submitted to the workshop co-chairs by March 1, 2008.
