Call for Papers Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks Journal A Special Issue on "Cross-Layer Design in Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks"
For well over a decade, the international community has invested significant effort conducting research on ad hoc and sensor networks. These networks show promise to support the development of always-on services in next generation mobile systems. Initially, it was natural to inherit the traditional layered network architecture in designing systems and services. More recently, the need to support high performance applications while coping with the limited node capabilities highlights the necessity of cross-layer design in these networks. Cross-layer design offers new opportunities to exploit the potential offered by joint optimization of design parameters, satisfy QoS requirements, among others, that cannot be addressed by traditional architecture in a satisfactory manner. However, at the current time, we lack a clear understanding of the interactions among the layers, and a comprehensive framework for cross-layer design in the network stack.
Scope of Contributions
The objective of this special issue is to bring together state-of-the-art research contributions, tutorials, and position papers that address the key aspects of cross layer design in ad hoc and sensor networks. Original manuscripts describing completed and unpublished work not currently under review by any other journal, magazine, or conference are solicited.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: -Architecture issues for cross-layer design in ad hoc and sensor networks -Standardization issues related to quality-aware cross-layer design -Performance optimization for cross-layer design of ad hoc and sensor networks -Cross-layer design issues for QoS provisioning in ad hoc and sensor networks -Cross-layer strategies in wireless sensor and actuator networks -Application layer adaptation based on cross-layer notifications -Interactions between routing/mobility management and congestion control -Cross-layer optimization for energy, network lifetime, and capacity -Cross-layer error and delay control -Channel access algorithms for cross-layered ad hoc communication networks -Cross-layer design of MIMO systems -Multi-user detection in cross-layer design -Design, implementation and test-bed/experimental results -Software defined radio for ad hoc and sensor networks -Cross-layer design for P2P streaming -Cross-layer design for multimedia systems -Cross layer issues in vehicular networking
