WONS 2013 - Call For Papers
The 10th International Conference on Wireless On-demand Network Systems and Services
Technical sponsorship: IFIP (more pending)
March 18-20, 2013 Banff, Canada
https://hcdcgroup.com/wons-13/
As more and more users become increasingly dependent on wireless and mobile communications, it is necessary to ensure reliable and dependable connectivity and support for "on-demand" services through new-generation wireless technologies such as personal networks, mesh networks, WiMax, ad hoc networks, sensor networks, vehicular networks, and their integration with the Internet, the cloud, and with legacy wireless technologies such as cellular and WiFi.
There are major challenges to be addressed, including integration of infrastructure-based and ad hoc networks, development of robust and lightweight algorithms for self-organization, reconfiguration at all layers of the protocol stack, on-demand service models and their provision in a highly-volatile interconnected environment, and smooth interoperability of architectures.
WONS, now in its tenth edition, has established itself as a high-quality forum to address these challenges in the context of a conference that is rich in interactions and based on innovative contributions by experts in the field.
This announcement solicits original submissions of high-quality research papers on "wireless on-demand networks" that provide novel insights on protocol and network design, modeling, performance evaluation, profitability models, energy efficiency, QoS models and mechanisms, practical implementations, service level aspects, and Internet integration of wireless networks.
Topics related to wireless on-demand networks comprise, but are not limited to:
* New architectures for on-demand wireless systems * Intra-body and biomedical on-demand systems * Performance evaluation through simulations and experiments * Modeling, optimization, and game theoretic aspects * Integration and co-existence of heterogeneous technologies * Social and economic aspects * Pervasive and ubiquitous computing * Localization and mobility management * Content Centric networking * Mobile social networks * Network coding and end to end coding * Security, privacy, and trust * Novel applications and services * Energy-efficient protocols and power management * Cross-layer design * Implementations and testbeds * Opportunistic, delay-tolerant, and dissemination-based protocols * Mobile peer-to-peer systems * Middleware aspects * Self-X and network management * Cognitive radio networks * Green wireless networks
This Year's Keynote Speakers ----------------------------
Edward W. Knightly (Rice University) Giuseppe Bianchi (University of Rome “Tor Vergata”)
Manuscript submissions ----------------------
Submitted papers must not have been published elsewhere and must not be currently under review by another conference or journal. Authors are invited to submit double-column full (up to 8 pages) and short papers (up to 4 pages) as a PDF file in IEEE format with a font size no smaller than 10pt. Short papers should present future research directions and ongoing work with visionary, innovative ideas; accepted short papers will populate poster sessions at the conference and will be included in the conference proceedings. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. Conference proceedings will be included in the IEEE Xplore library.
Further submission instructions will be published on the conference web site.
Best Paper Award ----------------
The IEEE/IFIP WONS 2013 Best Paper Award will recognize the authors of superior quality papers. The authors of a Best Paper Award will be recognized at the conference.
Important Dates for Attendees & Authors ---------------------------------------
* Paper Submission: December 16, 2012 * Acceptance notification: January 31, 2013 * Camera-ready due: February 11, 2013 * Conference: March 18-20, 2013
