Description of workshop

Opportunistic networks are an emerging networking paradigm where 
communication between the source and destination occurs on-the-fly and 
depends on the availability of communication links. Opportunistic 
communication
paradigm heavily benefits from the heterogeneous 
networking and communication infrastructure that currently exist, e.g., 
mobile networks, P2P networks, with the supporting technologies in data 
management and system interoperability.

Motivated by further examining recent advances in this field and 
promoting the optimization of the existing methodologies and/or 
approaches, as well as presenting efficient high performance techniques 
for extending the survivability of such systems, both in terms of 
performance and reliability, we are interested in organizing this 
workshop with the following primary objectives:

§   Explore new and innovative ideas and improvements of opportunistic 
networks that can affect the overall performance of the system;

§   Explore the impact of wireless mobility and resource management in 
order to offer high performance and resource availability in today’s

computing systems.

  The workshop also aims at presenting state-of-the-art research and 
future trends in mobile and heterogeneous opportunistic networking and 
applications, combining the mobile communication, mobility and resource 
management field, and in a research pathway in order to present the 
various concepts that contribute to enable high performance computing.
