CALL FOR PAPERS
WWIC 2012
10th International Conference on
Wired/Wireless Internet Communications
http://www.wwic2012.org
sponsored by IFIP
June 6-8, 2012
Island of Santorini, Greece
***** NEW SUBMISSION DEADLINE: DECEMBER 23, 2011 *****
Internet is being extended beyond its traditional boundaries (i.e.,
areas with network infrastructure) through gradually incorporating a
wide-range of challenging networks and autonomous devices. From
traditional wireless networks to opportunistic networks of mobile
devices in urban environments and deep-space communications, the new
approaches require an efficient merging with the traditional wired
infrastructure. The need for novel all-weather protocols, clean-slate or
evolutionary architectures, merging and assembling of different network
technologies, unified operation and management of the heterogeneous
components and the support for new multimedia services are only few
examples of the wide range of technologies building-up this new global
network. WWIC addresses research topics such as the design and
evaluation of protocols, the dynamics of the integration, the
performance tradeoffs, the need for new performance metrics and
cross-layer interactions. This year, we particularly emphasize on areas
such as Delay- and Disruption-Tolerant Networks
(DTNs) and Opportunistic
Networks.
The goal of the conference is to present high-quality results in the
field of global internetworking, and to provide a framework for research
collaboration through focused discussions that will designate future
research efforts and directions. In this context, the program committee
will accept only a limited number of papers that meet the criteria of
originality, presentation quality and topic relevance. WWIC is a
single-track conference which has reached, within 9 years, a high
quality level, which is reflected both on the level of participation as
well as on the acceptance ratio and the amount and quality of submitted
papers. Following the conference tradition there will also be a best
paper award.
Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published by
Springer in the Lecture Notes of Computer Science (LNCS) Series.
Extended versions of
selected papers will be considered for publication
in a special issue of an international journal.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- AAA in mobile environments
- Ad-hoc mobile networks
- Blended network configurations
- Cloud and data center computing
- Content-centric networking
