Dear Colleagues,
Due to multiple CFP deadline overlaps and the EU project deadline, we have decided to postpone the paper submission deadline for the below CFP to the 1^st April 2005.
------------------------------
The 2005 International Workshop on Wireless Ad-hoc Networks is an ideal opportunity to network and present latest results in the vibrant area of ad hoc and sensor networks. This year's attendees are comprised of high-profile professionals and academics from the US, Asia, Australia and Europe. The workshop will be held in London from Monday 23rd – Thursday 26th May 2005. For details, please, consult http://www.ctr.kcl.ac.uk/IWWAN2005.
Developing from the first successful event in Oulu in 2004, IWWAN 2005 will highlight the growing applications and power of ad-hoc and sensor networks in achieving ubiquitous, pervasive communications in next generation networks. The workshop will focus on the increasing importance of ad-hoc architectures in next generation networks including interoperation with fixed and cellular networks. The list of topics will include (but is not limited to):
*Theory*:
- Information theory for wireless ad-hoc networks
- Performance bounds, capacity limits
- Multiple access and capacity analysis
- Capacity of multi-hop networks
- Routing strategies in multi-hop networks
- Throughput and delay analysis
- Heterogeneous wireless networks
- Clustering and cooperative strategies
- Networks for survivability
- Power optimisation strategies
- Sensor networks
- Antenna & propagation issues
*Applications*:
- Positioning and location estimation
- Performance of Mobile IPV6
- 802.11 and Bluetooth networks
- Interoperation with fixed / cellular networks
- Ad-hoc wireless extensions to the Internet
- UWB networks
- Test-bed performance
- Tools for system analysis
- Pervasive / ubiquitous systems
- Implementation issues
- “Value added” services
The *schedule* is as follows:
• Monday 23rd May – Tutorials
• Tuesday 24th – Regular Sessions
• Wednesday 25th – Regular Sessions
• Thursday 26th – EU/Asia/USA Cluster Day
The Cluster Day on Thursday 26th May will include input from 5th and 6th Framework projects including BETSY, ROMANTIK, PULSERS and EYES. If you wish to present research conducted within Europe, America, Asia or Australia, please, contact the technical co-chairs.
*Important dates* are:
• NEW Submission deadline: – 1 April 2005
• Notification of acceptance: - 11 April 2005
Submission procedures are specified in http://www.ctr.kcl.ac.uk/IWWAN2005.
