5th Workshop on Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks (WMAN 2009) in conjunction with the 16th bi-annual Conference on Communication in Distributed Systems (KiVS) (German: ITG/GI - Fachtagung "Kommunikation in Verteilten Systemen (KiVS)")
March 5 + 6, 2009, Kassel, Germany http://www.kivs09.de/
Workshop URL: http://wman2009.cs.uni-bonn.de/
General information:
Welcome to the Workshop on Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks! Based on the success of the preceding WMAN workshops of 2007 back to 2002, the workshop will also be organised for 2009. For the upcoming workshop, we are very happy to introduce WMAN 2009 for the second time being hosted in the context of the bi-annual ITG/GI conference on communication in distributed systems (German: ITG/GI - Fachtagung "Kommunikation in Verteilten Systemen") - see http://www.kivs09.de/.
Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) show a large interest in application and protocol research. While the basic organization of the routing tasks has been addressed for quite some time, the emerging areas include auto-configuration, security and data privacy, or an efficient use of various resources, such as bandwidth, energy, or memory. Especially driven by the hand-held or mobile devices restrictions, the lack of centralized managers, and a high dynamicity of users, devices, and applications, known solutions to wire-line protocols, mechanisms, and systems cannot be applied directly to MANETs. Therefore, this workshop WMAN’09 combines in a coherent manner questions from the lower radio transmission layer all the way up to the application layer relevant in MANETs. Furthermore, dedicated application scenarios, such as vehicle-to-vehicle communications or submarine communications are of high interest.
Workshop paper topics include, but are not limited to:
• Basic Technologies (IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth) • Architectures and protocols • Routing mechanisms • Scalability and simulations of performance • Energy efficiency • QoS for ad-hoc networks • Auto-configuration and addressing • Security and data privacy in ad-hoc networks • Software platforms (middleware) for mobile applications • Applications for ad-hoc network • Location-based services and their deployment • Context management for ad-hoc services • Pricing models for commercial ad-hoc services • Accounting schemes for ad-hoc services • Management mechanisms of ad-hoc networks • Self-configuration and self-organization in ad-hoc networks
Addressees of the workshop:
Goal of the WMAN workshop is to enable an effective interchange of results and ideas among researchers, users, and product developers on an international level - under the umbrella of research topics on wireless mobile ad-hoc networks.
We encourage you to submit original papers describing research results or practical solutions, as well as ongoing work or challenging new research issues in the area of ad-hoc networks.
Important dates:
- October 31, 2008: Deadline for submissions. All papers have to be registered by October 24, 2008. ***** EXTENDED to November 10, 2008 and registration to November 6, 2008 ***** - November 30, 2008: Notification of acceptance. - December 20, 2008: Camera ready version. - March 2-6, 2009: Conference KiVS in Kassel - March 5+6, 2009: Workshop days, WMAN 2009 and others
Submission of papers:
Papers are solicited as full papers (in English language), each of which will be subject to a full peer review proc-ess. Submissions have to follow the author guidelines and must include: title, authors, affiliations, and 100-word abstract. The corresponding author should be identified clearly, including name, position, mailing address, tele-phone and fax numbers, and e-mail address. An electronic, PDF-based submission of papers is mandatory.
The workshop papers will appear in the Electronic Communications of the EASST, a peer-reviewed, scientific and open access journal. All papers have to be formatted according to KiVS layout requirements for workshops. See http://www.kivs09.de/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&am... and http://eceasst.cs.tu-berlin.de/index.php/eceasst for formatting details. Maximum page limit is 12 pages. Templates (LaTeX and Word) for WMAN (and all other KiVS workshops) can be found at http://eceasst.cs.tu-berlin.de/template/
Electronic paper submission (only in PDF format) will be done via the KiVS conference management system http://www.comtec.eecs.uni-kassel.de/conftool_kivs2009/
