-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: 4th International Conference on Wireless On-demand Network Systems and Services (WONS 2007) Datum: Mon, 24 Jul 2006 17:46:55 +0200 Von: Sven Hessler <sven.hessler(a)uibk.ac.at> Organisation: Leopold-Franzens University of Innsbruck, Austria An: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. ------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS - WONS 2007 The Fourth International Conference on Wireless On-demand Network Systems and Services January 24-26, 2007. Obergurgl (Innsbruck), AUSTRIA http://wons07.uibk.ac.at ------------------------------------------------------------------- Scope of the conference ----------------------- The world of wireless networks in the last few years has definitely turned its attention and focus more on "lightweight" networks, cheap and easily deployed, rather than the traditional, infrastructured cellular networks. The aim is providing ubiquitous connectivity and network centric services, with the important attribute of service provisioning "on demand" with minimal planning and management effort as well as with little dependency on existing network infrastructures. Even in the cellular network world, providers often point out their capacity to offer ad-hoc services that are tailored for a specific event or community, e.g. gaming on cellular networks. On the other extreme, peer2peer systems can provide innovative communication services to a community on ad-hoc networks, requiring almost no infrastructure. Ambient intelligence and ubiquitous computing are also part of this broad vision of "on demand" networking, providing services to users when they need it, albeit the final user might not even be aware if it! WONS is now at its fourth edition, and the community interest is still on the rise, providing a premier forum for high quality papers presentation and lively discussion. For this conference we request submissions of high quality research papers on "wireless on demand networks" that provide novel insights on protocol and network design, modeling and performance evaluation, pricing and profitability models, QoS models, practical implementations, service level aspects and Internet integration of wireless networks. Topics related to wireless ad hoc networks and sensor networks comprise, but are not limited to: * Architecture and Design * Analysis through simulation and experimental evaluation * Modeling * Internet integration * Social and economic aspects * Pervasive / ubiquitous computing * Localization and mobility management * Security * Energy-efficient protocols and power management * Applications and Service Support * Data dissemination and peer2peer systems Manuscript submissions ---------------------- Submitted papers must not have been published elsewhere nor currently be under review by another conference or journal. Authors are invited to submit full papers (8 pages) and short papers (4 pages). Short papers should address future research directions, ongoing work, and visionary, innovative ideas. All papers should be submitted electronically as PDF, according to the IEEE publisher format. The papers will be published in the conference proceedings published by the IEEE. For more information, please see the conference site: http://wons07.uibk.ac.at Schedule -------- Paper submission deadline: September 1, 2006 Feedback to authors: October 30, 2006 Final manuscripts to publisher: November 20, 2006 (tentative) Conference: January, 24-26, 2007 Keynote speaker --------------- Mario Gerla, UCLA, USA : Vehicle communications and impact on Internet Infrastructure Research Organization - Executive Committee ---------------------------------- General Chair Renato Lo Cigno, University of Trento, Italy Program Committee Chairs Ernst Biersack, EURECOM, France Michael Welzl, University of Innsbruck, Austria Local Organization Chair Sven Hessler, University of Innsbruck, Austria Michael Welzl, University of Innsbruck, Austria Sponsorship Chair Fabio Ricciato, ftw.

These technologies have improved the levels of safety and comfort to drivers. Coupled with advances in wireless communications technologies, recently there have been significant efforts to enhance and integrate the communications technologies into the vehicle and transportation systems to enable safety and information applications. For example, significant industrial and governmental efforts are underway to push from "passive-safety" to "active-safety" by employing networking functions in vehicles and highway infrastructure. With such communications and networking capabilities are integrated into vehicles and the infrastructure, not only safety but many other emerging applications can be supported for intelligent interactions with the transportation system, with other vehicles, and inside vehicles, to help with traffic management, vehicle diagnostics, mobile commerce, and much more. The increasing importance of vehicle and infrastructure communications is recognized by governments, highway authorities, automobile manufacturers and the academic community. This one-day workshop intends to bring together researchers, professionals, and practitioners to discuss and address recent developments and challenges in deploying vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-with-infrastructure networking technologies, and their applications including safety-assistance and driver-convenience. Specifically, we solicit original research contributions addressing the following areas: * Communication and application architecture of Intelligent Transportation Systems * Vehicle-with-infrastructure (V2I) communications * Mobile ad hoc vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications * Communication protocols for vehicular networks (media access, routing, etc.) * Physical layer and RF level technologies for vehicle communications * Security and authentication issues in vehicular ad hoc networks * Radio resource management and QoS support for vehicle communications * High-speed mobility management for vehicular networks * Simulation techniques for vehicular networks * Experimental systems and testbeds for vehicle communications Submission Instructions: 1.. Authors are invited to submit full papers of up to 20 double-spaced pages, including references, figures and tables. Use the abstract submission interface to provide the main information on your paper. You will be given an id/password which must later be used to access the system during the following steps, so be careful to remember it. 2..
