In mobile systems, this task becomes more challenging due to considerations imposed by the mobile aspect of the system. This workshop aims to bring together systems researchers to explore the basic question of evaluating mobile systems. Specifically we will examine challenges and advances made in the metrics, tools, methods, and the platforms used to evaluate mobile systems effectively. Submissions are encouraged to highlight the specific areas relating to mobile systems that make proper evaluation difficult - and include discussions how novel techniques can be used to address the various issues that arise. The focus of the workshop is not necessarily the underlying research for mobile systems, but rather the techniques and considerations necessary for evaluating and quantifying the gains of the basic research itself. Some example areas where mobile platforms and systems evaluation issues intersect include: * Reproducibility and Consistency * Experimental Design * Power Considerations * Metrics * Applications * Dynamic environments * Form factor * Platforms/Test-beds * Simulation Paper Submission: Submissions should be full papers, up to 6 single-spaced 8.5" x 11" pages, including figures, tables, and references, in two-column format, using 10-point type on 12-point (single-spaced) leading with reasonable margins. The first page of each paper should include the names and affiliations of the authors, i.e., the submissions should not be anonymous and reviewing is single-blind. Submissions will be judged on originality, significance, interest, clarity, relevance, and technical correctness. Full Papers are due Thursday, March 15th, 2007, 23:59 EST. Manuscripts must be in Adobe PDF format and conform to the guidelines specified above.

Special issue on "Architectures and Protocols for Mobility Management in All-IP Mobile Networks" Datum: Thu, 18 Jan 2007 15:54:55 +0200 Von: Nikos Passas <passas(a)di.uoa.gr> An: <tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu> [Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] Call for Papers IEEE Wireless Communications Magazine Special Issue on "Architectures and Protocols for Mobility Management in All-IP Mobile Networks" The success of next generation mobile networks will rely much on the degree of seamless mobility support among heterogeneous technologies. Seamless mobility is a many-faceted challenge that needs to be addressed to alleviate or eliminate today's restrictions on supported media, access technologies, devices or vendors. As we move in this direction, maintaining reliability, availability, quality of service and security at optimal levels across different systems is extremely important. Most modern mobile access technologies include advanced mechanisms for the support of intra-system handover and mobility to ensure seamless service provision. These mechanisms require proper parameterization and real-time adjustment according to a large range of traffic, QoS and channel conditions. On the other hand, inter-system handover and mobility management across heterogeneous networks are challenging problems that require efficient and reliable interoperation of the various schemes deployed in the different systems. Furthermore, simultaneous mobility must be supported, i.e., when both end hosts are mobile and they move at the same time, the session should not be dropped (as may happen with Mobile IPv6). Recent efforts are focusing on providing seamless handover and service continuity among access systems through close coordination with the QoS support and resource management mechanisms. Effort is placed into architectures that integrate different access technologies under a common IP backbone so that seamless mobility support will exploit the benefits of each technology. Several standardization activities are currently underway by different bodies. 802.21 is an IEEE emerging standard that aims at enabling seamless handover between networks of the same type as well as handover between different network types, also called Media Independent Handover (MIH). The standard provides information to allow handing over to and from several popular networks through different handover mechanisms. 3GPP is defining mobility from circuit-switched to IMS domain in the form of voice call continuity (VCC) and seamless mobility between different packet-switched domains belonging to existing and evolving 3GPP access networks and non-3GPP access networks as a part of System Architecture Evolution effort. This special issue will be devoted to the architectures, protocols, and mechanisms for mobility management and seamless handover support in next generation mobile networks. We seek original, high-quality and previously unpublished contributions, not currently under review by another magazine or journal. Contributions emphasizing recent advances and new research directions are strongly encouraged. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Handovers in IEEE 802.16e - Handovers in Evolved UMTS - Comparison between 3GPP and IETF MM protocols - Mobility between 3GPP and non-3GPP radio access networks - Fast Handovers for Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6) - Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 Mobility Management (HMIPv6) - Mobile IPv6 Fast Handovers for 3G, WMANs and WLANs - Mobility Management using Proxy Mobile IPv4/v6 - Localized Mobility Management - Simultaneous mobility support (when both end hosts are mobile) - Architectures and protocols for mobility management in heterogeneous environments - Seamless intra- and inter-system handover - Media Independent Handovers (IEEE 802.21) - Security issues / solution in mobility management - Inter-domain mobility: AAA and other architectures and protocols 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/~pci/.
