CALL FOR PAPERS - MSAN 2005
First International Conference on Multimedia Services Access Networks
Technically co-sponsored by IEEE Communications Society
June 13-15, 2005, Orlando, Florida, USA
http://msan.org
** SCOPE **
Access networks (the ‘last-’ or ‘first-’ mile according to provider’s or
customer’s perspective) represent one of the most important parts in
telecommunication systems, being responsible for the high-quality,
reliable and secure delivery of services to end users. They also
encompass some of the most demanding networking problems, such as the
coexistence of a large variety of technologies based on both wired and
wireless solutions, the need of optimal integration with the core
network in terms of bandwidth and availability mismatch, the provision
of an acceptable quality of service in very different application
scenarios and traffic conditions. Perhaps, the most important challenge
is that the design of access networks – from the analysis of
requirements to the implementation and operation of the system – can
only be successful if it is based on an integrated approach, taking into
account the needs of different user groups, the technical constraints
posed by different application technologies, as well as the related
business and societal aspects.
Within this framework, MSAN’05 is intended to provide a unique
international forum to explore the new research frontiers in the field
of current and next generation multimedia service access networks.
Original unpublished contributions are solicited that can improve the
knowledge and practice in the integrated design of efficient access
technologies and the relevant provision of advanced multimedia
applications.
** TOPICS OF INTEREST **
Topics of interest are organized in three tracks addressing
respectively: access network technologies (with particular emphasis on

Marina del Rey, California, USA
=========================================
WWW.DCOSS.ORG
The 2005 International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems
(DCOSS '05) will take place in Marina del Rey during June 30 - July 1, 2005.
DCOSS is motivated by the successful ALGOSENSORS '04 (Algorithmic aspects of
wireless sensor networks) workshop, which was colocated with ICALP and LICS
in Finland on 16 July, 2004. While the scope of ALGOSENSORS was focused on
algorithms for wireless sensor networks, DCOSS '05 is intended to cover
several aspects of distributed computing in sensor systems such as
high level abstractions, computational models, systematic design
methodologies, algorithms, analysis and applications. The conference will
provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to present their
contributions related to the above high-level aspects of distributed sensor
systems. In addition to contributed papers, the meeting will also include
keynote addresses by leading researchers, a panel discussion, and a
poster/presentation session.
Located in Marina del Rey, a beach side community that is the home of the
world's largest man-made harbor, the meeting venue can be easily reached
from the Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). Most of the world famous
attractions of the greater Los Angeles area - including the Santa Monica
mountains, the Getty Center, Hollywood, Venice Beach, Disneyland, and
Universal Studios can be easily reached from the Marina.

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
==============================
CALL FOR PAPERS
Distributed sensor systems have become a highly active research area due
to their potential for providing diverse new capabilities. Such systems
allow intelligent dense monitoring of physical environments, which makes
them immensely useful for data collection and analysis. While much
ongoing research has addressed networking, communication and low-level
self-configuration issues in such systems, there are also significant
challenges pertaining to systematic design, algorithm development and
analysis, and abstract modeling in order to achieve efficient and robust
realizations of large-scale distributed sensor systems. The large number
of sensor devices involved, severe power, computational and memory
limitations, resource heterogeneity, dense deployment and frequent
failures pose novel challenges to design, algorithms, analysis and
implementation.
The focus of the conference is on distributed computing issues in
large-scale networked sensor systems (including algorithms, applications,
and systematic design techniques and tools), but networking-related
contributions that support high level abstractions are also welcome.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Computation and programming models
- Energy models, minimization, awareness
- Distributed algorithms for collaborative information processing
- Theoretical performance analysis: complexity, correctness,
scalability, fault-tolerance
- Abstractions for modular design
- Languages, operating systems
- Task allocation, reprogramming and reconfiguration
- Dynamic resource management
- Scalable, heterogeneous architectures (node and system-level)
- Middleware interfaces, communication and processing primitives
- Design, simulation and optimization tools for deployment
and operation
- Design automation and application synthesis techniques
- Case studies: lessons from real world deployments
Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that
demonstrate current research on computational aspects of distributed
sensor systems. Submitted manuscripts may not exceed 14 single-spaced
pages using 12-point size font on 8.5x11 inch pages, including figures
and tables. References may be included in addition to the 14 pages.
Authors need to make sure that the electronically submitted files are
formatted for 8.5x11 inch paper. Submissions will be judged on correctness,
originality, technical strength, significance, quality of presentation, and
interest and relevance to the conference attendees. Submitted papers
may not have appeared in or be under consideration for another conference
or a journal.
Submission procedures are available via Web access at http://www.dcoss.org/
All manuscripts will be reviewed. Manuscripts must be received by
January 17, 2005, by 5 p.m. U.S. Pacific Coast Time.
Notification of review decisions will be mailed by March 15, 2005.
Camera-ready papers will be due April 15, 2005.
DCOSS '05 Proceedings will be distributed at the Conference.

Call for Workshops
11th International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking
(ACM MobiCom 2005)
August 28 - September 2, 2005
Cologne, Germany
http://www.sigmobile.org/mobicom/2005/
*******************************************************************
The ACM Mobicom 2005 conference will host a day of workshops on technical
areas related to mobile and wireless networking. SIGMOBILE invites workshop
proposals from interested communities. New workshops in emerging areas
that can engage participants in greater interaction are welcome.
General information:
The purpose of the workshop proposal is to describe the research topics
covered
by the workshop and how the workshop will be organized. ACM Mobicom will
provide
basic support for the workshop in the form of registration, publicity, a
meeting
room, and help in arranging meal service for the workshop at the ACM Mobicom
conference. To encourage flexibility, the details of the format of the
workshop,
the form of submissions and presentations, and the likes is left to the
workshop
organizers. Because workshops are meant to foster discussions on
emerging topics
of interest among the broader SIGMOBILE community, workshops are
encouraged to be
inclusive rather than exclusive in their solicitation of material. In
addition,
targeting more interactive forums such as presentations of short papers
rather than
traditional presentations of full-length papers can be more conducive to
successful
workshops.
Detailed guidelines:
Proposals for workshops should be sent to the ACM Mobicom workshop co-chairs
Suman Banerjee (suman(a)cs.wisc.edu) or Martina Zitterbart (zit(a)tm.uka.de) by
January 31, 2005, 5pm EST and should contain:
* A description of the workshop's technical area, its scope, its history
(if any),
and why it is important in mobile and wireless networking.
* A description of the workshop program (e.g., paper presentations, poster
presentations, panel sessions) and expected attendance. The workshop
program
should fill one day and SIGMOBILE encourages programs that require only
one meeting room (for simplified logistics). You should indicate if you
have any other requirements, e.g., hall for poster presentations.
* The names of key workshop volunteers, e.g., the workshop chair,
program chair
and possible program committee members.
* A draft call for papers or participation.
* A completed preliminary TMRF which is available from ACM at:
http://www.acm.org/sig_volunteer_info/conference_manual/prelimpage.htm.
* Opportunities for sponsorship from corporate donors.

****************************************
The combination of mobile and ubiquitous computing is emerging as a
promising new paradigm with the goal to provide computing and
communication services all the time, everywhere, transparently and
invisibly to the user, using devices embedded in the surrounding physical
environment. In this context, the communication devices, the objects with
which they interact, or both may be mobile. The implementation of such a
paradigm requires advances in wireless network technologies and devices,
development of infrastructures supporting cognitive environments, and
discovery and identification of ubiquitous computing applications and
services.
The second Annual International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous
Systems: networking and services (Mobiquitous-05) will cover all these
aspects, representing a forum where practitioners and researchers coming
from the many areas involved in ubiquitous solutions design and deployment
will be able to interact exchanging the cross-layer experiences needed to

Dear ENEXT colleagues,
Please consider submitting to this workshop (with apologies if you
receive multiple copies of this CFP).
MeshNets 2005
http://www.meshnets.org
In conjunction with WICON 2005
10 July 2005, Budapest, Hungary
IMPORTANT DATES

Notification of Acceptance: March 15, 2005
Camera-ready Version due: May 15, 2005
CALL FOR PAPERS
The long-term success of the Wireless Internet depends on the
establishment of an architectectural framework that can meet the
increasingly stringent demands place on it by our mobile, "always
connected" society. Wireless mesh networks are expected to be a key
element of this future.
In a wireless mesh network, mobile devices or networks cooperatively
establish mulit-hop, or even multi-radio communication paths in a
dynamic environment, providing an alternative form of wireless
connectivity. To achieve scalability and performance, such a network
must manage complex tradeoffs among factors such as coverage,
throughput/delay and QoS support. Many such networks must also be able
to support self-organizing and self-healing modes of operation.
The emergence of wireless PAN, LAN, and MAN technologies and an
ever-growing demand for connectivity suggest that wireless mesh networks
will play an important role in the future development of the Wireless
Internet. The importance and timeliness of this topic is confirmed by
the many start-up companies defining technology and products in this
space, as well as the work of standards bodies such as the IEEE 802.11s
Working Group.
The goal of this workshop is to bring together an international group of
academics, researchers, and industry practitioners to a) provide a view
of the state-of-art, b) identify outstanding challenges and c) present
current research on all aspects of mesh networks. The workshop will
therefore include panel discussion and invited speakers, as well as
papers selected through this CFP.
In particular, we encourage submissions which make fundamental
contributions to the theory and practice of wireless mesh networking,
with emphasis on cross-layer protocol design and implementation,
especially in the context of programmable and software defined radio.
We solicit paper on topics including, but not limited to the following
areas of relevance to mesh networks:
* Link and MAC layer design
* Cross-layer optimization
* Radio resource management and QoS support
* Programmable and software defined radios
* User mobility models and mobility management
* Topology deduction and network measurement
* Performance evaluation and modelling
* Experimental systems and test-beds
* Security and authentication
* Interworking between wireless access and the wired backbone
PROPOSALS FOR PANELS
Proposals for panel sessions on wireless networking and related topics
are also solicited.
Panel topics should address innovative, controversial, or otherwise
provocative topics related to wireless mesh networking. Please submit
proposals to the General Chairs .
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
All submissions will be handled electronically. Papers must be
submitted in PostScript or Adobe PDF format. Papers must not exceed 8-10
(A4 size) pages, including text, figures and references, with a minimum
font size of 11pt and reasonable margins. Submitted papers must be
original and unpublished work, not currently under review for any other
conference or journal.
All paper submissions will be carefully reviewed by experts and returned
to the author(s) with comments to ensure the high quality of accepted
papers. The authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their paper
will be presented at the conference. At least one author of each
accepted paper must be registered for the conference in order for that
paper to appear in the proceedings and to be scheduled for presentation.
Papers of particular merit will be proposed for publication in the ACM
Journal of Mobile Networks and Applications (MONET), by Kluwer Academic
Pulblishers.

September 18-21, 2005, Chania, Island of Crete, Greece
http://www.ieee-lanman.org
Sponsored by: IEEE Communications Society
The IEEE LAN/MAN Workshop continues its long tradition as a leading
forum for showcasing the latest technical advances in networking in
the local and metropolitan areas. The workshop seeks to focus on
three areas that are currently generating considerable interest: Metro
and access networks, where optical and broadband wireless technologies
are vying to realize true broadband connectivity, promising abundant,
inexpensive, and readily available bandwidth; A second emphasis will
be on Applications, such as Storage, Gaming and Computing that seek to
exploit high speed metro area connectivity; A third area will be on
Wireless networks and architectures. The realization of cost effective
metro and access networks requires both theoretical investigations
(including new architectures, concepts, and economic and service
models) and experimentation (including prototypes, testbeds, and
applications).
Single-track presentations are planned to stimulate technical exchange
among researchers and practitioners with a broad interest in
networking; we specifically welcome submissions on both optical and
broadband wireless networks and relevant experimental activities.
