--------------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES --------------------------------- - Submission deadline: October 6, 2014 5pm US EDT - Acceptance Notification: October 27, 2014 - Camera-Ready version due: November 10, 2014

Vehicular networking and communication systems is an area of significant importance in our increasingly connected and mobile world. Effective vehicular connectivity techniques can significantly enhance efficiency of travel by mitigating the impact of congestion, reduce traffic incidents and thereby improve safety, and overall provide a more comfortable driving experience. Towards this goal, the 2014 IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference (VNC) seeks to bring together researchers, professionals, and practitioners to present and discuss recent developments and challenges within the area of vehicular networking technologies and their applications.

IEEE VNC 2014 will continue the tradition from previous editions to include a poster session to allow the authors to closely interact with, and obtain feedback from, the conference audience on new or on-going research contributions related to vehicular networking. Posters are especially suited for presenting controversial research directions that may generate discussion, or promising ideas not yet fully validated through complete extensive evaluation. IEEE VNC 2014 will also include a demonstration session for researchers to showcase their latest prototypes with media, models, or live demonstrations. The demo session will be co-located with the poster session to ensure maximum visibility and a close interaction with the conference audience. We solicit proposals for demonstrations related to vehicular networking, describing either mature or innovative systems and prototypes developed for commercial use or for research purposes, from industries as well as universities. We espe! cially encourage demos on validating important research issues or showcasing prototypes that demonstrate realistic applications.

Consistent with the submission policy of this year’s VNC edition but different from previous editions, poster and demo submissions will be put into distinct submission categories and therefore papers will not be moved between different categories during the review process – i.e., full or short papers will not be “downgraded” to poster or demo papers.

--------------------------------- SUBMISSION GUIDELINES ---------------------------------

All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed, and will be selected based on the novelty and technical quality of the works, as well as the expected interest to the VNC audience. Accepted poster and demo papers will be published in the conference proceeding (also available on IEEE Xplore) and will be advertised on the IEEE VNC 2014 website.

The submitted poster or demo paper should be a 2-page paper following the VNC 2014 paper format (standard IEEE 2-column format and using 10-point font). All paper submissions must be written in English. The title of the paper should begin with either “Poster:” or “Demo:”. Optionally, a poster paper submission can also include an electronic copy of the poster.

A demo paper submission should include an overview of the demonstration set-up (the inclusion of photographs of the demonstrator are encouraged) and the results that will be showcased to the attendees. We also encourage the authors of the demo papers to include a link to a short 2-min demonstration video for the reviewers to facilitate the evaluation of the quality of the demonstration proposal. If a video is included, it will be downloaded by the demo co-chairs such that it can be hosted on our website to ensure the anonymity of the reviewers. The videos of accepted demonstration proposals will then also be advertised on the conference website. For all accepted demonstration proposals, the demo co-chairs will follow up with the authors to obtain requests for required equipment and/or facilities (power outlets, Internet connections, table dimensions, etc.). Demonstrations may be supported by a poster describing the general set-up of the demonstration, its background, and the! technical content to be demonstrated. The authors should inform the demo co-chairs if an accompanying poster will be presented.

Please note that for every accepted poster or demo paper, at least one person must register for the conference and present the poster or demo.

--------------------------------- VENUE ---------------------------------

IEEE VNC 2014 will take place at the Heinz Nixdorf Museums Forum, the world's largest computer museum, located in Paderborn, Germany.

The Heinz Nixdorf MuseumsForum is the world’s biggest computer museum as well as a lively event venue. The Heinz Nixdorf Museums Forum is sponsored by the Stiftung Westfalen foundation set up by Heinz Nixdorf, which primarily promotes science and teaching, especially in the field of information technology.
