Following two successful events in 2007 and 2008, the 3rd International Workshop on Localized Algorithms and Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks (LOCALGOS 2009) aims to cover comprehensively the algorithmic issues in the hot area of ad hoc and sensor networking.
This workshop concentrates on such network layer problems as data communication (routing, QoS-routing, geocasting, multicasting, broadcasting, etc.) and topology control (neighbor discovery, power adjustment, neighbor elimination, etc.). The main paradigm shift is to apply localized (or greedy) schemes as opposed to existing protocols requiring global information. Localized algorithms are distributed approaches where simple local node behavior achieves a desired global objective. Localized protocols provide scalable solutions, that is, solutions for wireless networks with an arbitrary number of nodes. The objective of the workshop is to present state of the art research results on various aspects of localized algorithms and protocols in this rapidly growing area of ad hoc and sensor networks.
TOPICS OF INTEREST ------------------
The objective of the workshop is to present state of the art research results on data communication and topology control in the rapidly growing area of ad hoc and sensor networks, with emphasizes on localized techniques. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Localized unicast and multicast routing protocols - Localized broadcasting algorithms - Localized QoS communication protocols - Localized geocasting protocols - Localized clustering algorithms - Localized protocols for duty-cycled sensor networks - Localized auto-configuration and network formation algorithms - Topology construction and maintenance based on local information - Energy-efficient and bandwidth-efficient communication - Relative positioning algorithms based on local information - Network graph properties supporting localized protocols - Localized algorithms for data management and query - Localized incentive schemes for selfish wireless networks - Localized algorithms in delay/disruption tolerant networks - Security based on local information in wireless sensor networks - Bounds analysis in localized solutions - Worst and average case analysis in localized algorithms
