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.
