JCN SPECIAL ISSUE ON

MOBILE AD HOC WIRELESS NETWORKS

PUBLICATION DATE: DECEMBER 2004

The Journal of Communications and Networks (JCN) will publish a Special Issue dedicated to leading-edge topics on Mobile Ad Hoc Wireless Networks. High-quality contributions are solicited by the Guest Editors: Prof. Mario Gerla, University of California, Los Angeles, USA, gerla@cs.ucla.edu Dr. Jason Redi, BBN Technologies, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA, etc, etc Prof. Carla-Fabiana Chiasserini, Politecnico di Torino, Torino, Italy Prof. Kenichi Mase, Niigata University, Niigata, Japan Prof. Eytan Modiano, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, USA

The issue of mobility is central in ad hoc networks and sets them apart from wireless infrastructure networks and static sensor nets. Mobility affects several layers from radio to applications. In this special issue we solicit papers that deal with mobility issues in wireless ad-hoc networks. The topics include but are not limited to the following:

Impact of mobility on various protocols layers Performance of mobile ad hoc networks Mobility and scalability trade-offs Mobility models for ad hoc wireless networks Simulation of mobility in ad hoc networks Influence of mobility on protocol design Effect of mobility on protocol performance Exploiting mobility for protocol scalability

Radio and antenna designs for mobility Antenna Diversity and mobility Mobility and MAC layer Mobility and network layer Mobility and transport layer Cross layer interaction to handle mobility Mobile ad hoc network applications Mobile ad hoc net measurements

Continuing JCN's tradition of fast turnaround together with full peer reviews, the following schedule has been set:

July 31, 2004 Electronic manuscript (.ps or .pdf) to the JCN website [An early notification of intent to submit would be appreciated.] October 15, 2004 First reviews returned to author December 15, 2004 Special Issue published

Electronic submissions will be made to JCN website. Information about submissions is available on the JCN web site, http://jcn.or.kr. Please direct inquiries and intent to submit notifications to any one of the Guest Editors . JCN is a high-quality quarterly archival journal, published by the Korean Institute of Communications Sciences with the technical co-sponsorship of the IEEE Communications Society, covering the fields of Communication Theory and Systems, Wireless Communications, and Networks and Services. JCN began publication in March 1999.
