IEEE WiVeC 2008 -- 2nd Call for Demos
We are pleased to announce that the deadline for the submission of demo proposals to IEEE WiVeC 2008 has been extended to **May, 19th 2008**. This is a firm deadline.
This year, the WiVeC demo session will be designed to allow industrials and researchers to showcase their latest industrial applications and research prototypes in WiVeC related topics. Demo proposals covering innovative technologies, platforms, analysis tools and applications related to wireless vehicular communications are encouraged.
Due to the particular nature of demos of vehicular communication technologies, movies or visualizers demonstrating the course of a vehicular testbed performed on a remote site also qualify to WiVeC'08 demo session. In order to optimize the illustration of the design of such demo, candidates are yet encouraged to bring examples of some transportable equipments used for their testbed.
We also would like to emphasize that this year, accepted demonstrations will be included in IEEE Xplore.
Demo proposal of 2 A4 pages should be submitted to the Demo Chair Dr. Jérôme Härri at haerri@tm.uni-karlsruhe.de
Further submission guidelines may be found below.
---------------
2nd IEEE International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular Communications (IEEE WiVeC'08)
21--22 September 2008, Calgary Marriott, 110 9th Avenue SE, Calgary, Alberta T2G 5A6 Canada
http://www.ieeevtc.org/wivec2008/
Sponsored by the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society (VTS)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The IEEE International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular Communications (WiVeC) will cover all vehicular wireless communications aspects of Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V), Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) and Vehicle-to-Person (V2P) communications, including implications on transport efficiency and safety, implications on automotive electronics, liability issues, standardizations efforts and spectrum assignment.
After a successful first WiVeC edition in 2007 (http://www.ieeevtc.org/wivec2007/) with over 150 participants in the 2-day event, the second IEEE WiVeC symposium will be co-located with the 68th IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference 2008 Fall conference and will take place at the Calgary Marriott Hotel in Calgary on the 21st and 22nd of September 2008. Combined registrations packages will be offered for WiVeC and VTC events.
This year, the WiVeC demo session will be designed to allow industrials and researchers to showcase their latest industrial applications and research prototypes in WiVeC related topics. Poster and demo sessions will be co-located to ensure maximum visibility and a close interaction between presenters and participants. Demo proposals covering innovative technologies, platforms, analysis tools and applications related to wireless vehicular communications are encouraged. Submissions describing both mature or innovative systems and prototypes developed for commercial use or for research purposes, from industries or universities, are encouraged.
Submission Instructions :
-------------------------
The submitted demo proposal should include in a maximum of 2 A4 pages, including figures and references :
1. Title, authors and contact information.
2. Technical content to be demonstrated.
3. An overview of the demonstration set-up (the inclusion of photographs of the demonstrator are encouraged) and the results that will be shown to attendees.
4. Any URLs that link to screen-shots, live demos, or related information
The submission format should follow the IEEE submission guidelines (http://www.ieeevtc.org/wivec2008/A4.rtf).
Demo proposals may be sent to the Demo Chair Dr. Jérôme Härri at haerri@tm.uni-karlsruhe.de
The authors should also email the Demo Chair with information on the equipment or facilities required for the system demonstration (e.g., power supplies, Internet connections, table dimensions, etc). Demonstrations could be supported by a poster describing the general set-up of the demonstration, its background and technical content to be demonstrated. Demo participants interested to use a poster should also inform me. Demonstrations will be selected based on their novelty, technical quality, and attractiveness of the demonstrated system.
*Accepted demonstrations will be included in IEEE Xplore and the Conference CDROM*.
Please note that for every accepted demonstration, it is required that at least one person registers for the conference and presents the demo. However, no additional paper charge is needed for authors that are already presenting a regular paper in IEEE WiVeC'08.
Important Dates for Demos :
