Med-Hoc-Net 2004 ================ The Third Annual Mediterranean Ad Hoc Networking Workshop
June 27-30, 2004, Bodrum, Turkey
http://www.medhoc04.diit.unict.it/
Call for Papers ---------------
Ad hoc network applications are emerging continuously imposing their own stringent constraints which cannot be fulfilled by generic approaches and thus spur new research efforts. The aim of Med-Hoc-Net 2004 is to serve as a platform for researchers and visionaries from academia, research labs, and industry from all over the globe to share their ideas, views, results, and experiences in the field of ad-hoc networking and communications. Med-Hoc-Net 2004 will include presentations of theoretical and experimental achievements, innovative ad-hoc systems, prototyping efforts, case studies, and advancements in technology directly affecting ad-hoc networking and communications infrastructures.
After Sardinia (Italy) and Mahdia (Tunisia), this year the workshop will take place in another beautiful spot on the Mediterranean Sea: Bodrum (Turkey) where you will find wonderful nature and amazing historical sites close to hand. Bodrum is easy to reach via frequent flight connections from Istanbul.
Topics of Interest: ------------------- The papers solicited in Med-Hoc-Net 2004 cover a variety of topics including but not limited to:
- Novel ad-hoc network architectures and applications, - Sensor network applications and protocols, - Implementations, testbeds, and prototypes, - Interfacing ad-hoc systems with different networks, - Resource discovery and management, - Power management and control, - Call admission and traffic shaping policies for ad-hoc networks, - Multimedia location services, - Self organization and network reconfiguration, - Protocols for QoS support in ad-hoc networks, - QoS support in Bluetooth, HomeRF, HIPERLAN, IEEE 802.11 etc., - MAC protocols, scheduling, and radio resource sharing in ad hoc networks, - Unicast and multicast routing algorithms and protocols, - Transport layer protocols for multi-hop networks, - Congestion control, - Performance evaluation of ad-hoc network protocols through simulations, analysis, and measurements, - Security in ad-hoc networks, - Fault tolerance and error recovery - Signal processing algorithms (coding, compression) for ad-hoc networks
The program committee will referee all papers, and accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. PAPERS OF PARTICULAR MERIT WILL BE PUBLISHED IN AD HOC NETWORKS (ELSEVIER) JOURNAL.
Submission and Important Dates: -------------------------------
Manuscripts must be formatted according to the IEEE double-column standard format, except the font size, which must be 11pt. Authors should use only standard fonts, i.e., Times Roman, Courier, Symbol, and Helvetica, or their equivalent. The maximum length of the manuscript is 12 pages.
Papers should be submitted in pdf or ps format via email to medhoc04@diit.unict.it according to the following timetable:
Full Paper Electronic Submission: March 2, 2004
Tutorial proposal deadline: April 15, 2004 Notification of Acceptance/Rejection: May 3, 2004 Camera ready submission of full papers: May 17, 2004 Tutorial date: June 27, 2004 Conference dates: June 28-30, 2004
Tutorials: ----------
Proposals for tutorials are solicited. Tutorials should address key topics on Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks and Mobile Communications, dealing with both experimental and theoretical research advances in these fields. Evaluation of proposals will be based on the expertise and experience of the instructors, and on the relevance of the subject matter for the workshop. Potential instructors are requested to submit a tutorial proposal of at most 3 pages, including a biographical sketch, to the Tutorial Chairs, Francesca Cuomo (cuomo@infocom.uniroma1.it) and Christos Douligeris (cdoulig@unipi.gr) by the tutorial proposal deadline above (April 15, 2004).
