Dear Friends and Colleagues,

Please note the following CFP: Deadline for Papers Submission is june 1st. Call for Papers: IEEE Communications Magazine, http://www.comsoc.org/pubs/commag/cfpcommag0207.htm

Special Issue on "Quality of Service based Routing Algorithms for Heterogeneous Networks"

Background Currently, due to the growing needs in telecommunications (VoD, Video-Conference, VoIP, etc.) and the diversity of transported flows, Internet network does not meet the requirements of future integrated-service networks, which will carry out multimedia data traffic with a high Quality of Service (QoS). Therefore, it is necessary to develop a high quality control mechanism to check the network traffic load and ensure QoS requirements. It's clear that the integration of these QoS parameters will increase the complexity of the algorithms used in heterogeneous networks. Thus, there will be QoS relevant technological challenges in today emerging heterogeneous networks that include different types of networks (e.g., wired, wireless, mobile, etc.). We shall focus in this special topic on QoS routing policies, and their effectiveness on heterogeneous wired and wireless networks. Thus, in this special issue, we are seeking papers that explore routing algorithms which take into account the dynamic's change of communication networks and discuss their advantages and drawbacks when compared to traditional solutions. Compared to the previous special issues on the integration of QoS, this issue will focus on a tutorial-based approach, and on the evolution of routing decisions applied in heterogeneous networks, which may include the load level traffic patterns and topology of the network changes, that the routing policy adapts the decision's router. Scope of Contributions Authors are encouraged to submit both theoretical and practical results of significance on all aspects of QoS routing policies and related areas with concrete experimental studies to show the validity of their approach. We solicit papers covering a variety of topics that include, but are not limited to : - Dynamic state-dependent routing policies - Quality of Service policies versus Best effort policies - Routing in hybrid Networks - Dynamic Routing in inband or outband network control protocols - Traffic shaping in QoS Routing - Policy-Based Management in QoS Routing - Ad hoc networking routing solutions for heterogenous wired and wireless networks - The role of dynamic routing in irregular traffic networks - QoS based routing and data gathering protocols for wireless sensor networks
