There is a need for more realistic models of traffic, mobility, and association patterns. This can be beneficial in capacity planning, administration, and deployment of wireless infrastructures, protocol design for wireless applications and services, and their performance analysis. The Wireless Traffic Measurements and Modeling Workshop is intended to serve as a forum for scientists and engineers in academia and industry to exchange and discuss their experiences and research results about all aspects of measurements and modeling of applications, usage, access, load, and mobility in wireless networks. It will also initiate discussions on how to use these models to improve the performance of wireless networks. Furthermore, it aims in enhancing and accelerating the process of sharing traces, implementations, and test suites. In this workshop, we would like to solicit short papers (6 pages) that report on experiences obtained from operational wireless experiments in testbeds or the field. We will use the EDAS system for the paper submission. We plan to get industrial sponsorship to support a best paper and presentation award and a keynote speaker. Along with regular presentations we plan to have speakers and/or panel discussions that encourage more active participation of the attendees. TOPICS Topics of particular interest include but are not limited to: - Methods for collecting and analyzing measurements in different wireless environments (infrastructures, sensor networks) - Workload characterization and traffic analysis - User mobility modeling - Software tools in support of measurements - Measurement-based inference of network properties (for normal or abnormal behavior, network topology, hot spots) - Design of monitoring systems, sampling methods, and anomaly detection - Temporal and spatial evolution of wireless networks - Evaluation of forecasting algorithms for wireless traffic load - Comparative analysis on different wireless networks - Techniques for improving the repeatability of tests ORGANIZERS General Chair: Kang G.

In many cases, as well as in aerospace applications, the wireless choice is a must. In other cases, wireless means resource optimization, as in the case of Wireless LANs. Cable networks and the Internet are not sufficient to support applications in some environments. People may require news on the web in hazardous environments. Moreover, in the presence of infrastructure, traffic bottlenecks of terrestrial networks and traditional links could make the service highly inefficient, if not useful. Therefore, there is increasing commercial interest to use wireless in modern telecommunications systems such as local area services, interactivity and possibility of building networks adapted to the different needs; tele-learning; managing activity of the Public Administration; bank and financial services; industrial activity located remotely; broadcasting and backbone access; international connections; tele-medicine; data recovery; video-surveillance; application in rural environments; applications for vehicles, trains and planes; and tactical communications, among others. Offering real services with a specific guarantee of Quality of Service (QoS) over wireless systems (including WLAN, radio and satellite) is very challenging as it implies the need to solve challenging research and development issues due to the peculiarity of the application environment. This issue of Computer and Electrical Engineering (C & EE) Journal is aimed at soliciting recent original and previously unpublished research results that deal with technological solutions, protocols, applications, performance analysis of Wireless Networks, including WLANs, WMANs, radio networks, 3G and beyond systems, military tactical and satellite networks.

This data can be used to detect events and to trigger activity. Some applications are habitat monitoring (observing live animals), precision agriculture, structural health monitoring (detecting damage in buildings, bridges, aircrafts), emergency and rescue operations, supply chain management, or perimeter and building security. Building on the success of the first Workshop on Sensor Networks at INFORMATIK 2004, this workshop aims at bringing together researchers from different backgrounds to create a forum where cross-layer integration, novel solutions for specific problems, and the future development of WSN functionalities can be discussed. Possible topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Hardware for WSNs and its impact on communication protocols - Operating systems and middleware for WSNs - Communication protocols for WSNs, e.g. MAC and routing, addressing schemes - Distributed classification and data fusion - Distributed data storage and processing - Self-organization in sensor networks - Quality of Service in WSNs - Energy/efficiency tradeoffs in all protocol layers - Security requirements and security primitives for WSNs - Access control and trust management - Privacy impacts of WSNs - Inter-connection between WSN and the Internet - Testbeds, use cases PARTICIPANTS ------------ The intended audience are researchers from academia and industry, especially working in the areas of sensor networks, embedded systems, communication middleware, and databases as well as resource-constrained communication networks as such. SUBMISSION ---------- We accept submissions in both German and English. Submissions must not exceed 5 pages including figures and bibliography and have to be formatted according to the style guidelines of the Springer LNI series available at http://www.gi-ev.de/LNI/.
