Call for Papers

The Second IEEE International Workshop on Vehicular Networking (VON-09) (http://nrl.iis.sinica.edu.tw/VON09/) In Conjunction With IEEE APSCC 2009, December 7th-11th, 2009 Biopolis, Singapore

==================================================================

Aims and Scope

The goal of this workshop is to present and discuss recent advances in the development of wireless vehicular networking technologies. Based on short- to medium-range communication systems (vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-roadside), vehicular networks will enable vehicular safety applications including collision and other safety warnings as well as non-safety applications like real-time traffic congestion and routing information, high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, and many others. The creation of high-performance, highly reliable, highly scalable, and secure vehicular networks technologies, though, presents an extraordinary challenge to the wireless research community: a high degree of communication reliability is needed under unfavorable channel conditions. Clearly, the specificity of vehicular networks in terms of mobility behavior and applications scenarios and requirements makes vehicular networks research an exciting and demanding application- and purpose-driven sub-discipline of wireless networking.

Topics of Interest

Original papers addressing applications and architecture, systems and protocols design, development and analysis, in all areas related to Vehicular Networking are solicited. Papers that bring out interesting and novel ideas at an early stage are favored over highly-polish journal-style results. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- Vehicular mobile ad-hoc networks - Routing protocols for V2V communications - MAC layer technologies - Physical layer and RF level technologies - Antenna technologies - Role of V2V communications in Intelligent Transportation Systems - Safety and non-safety applications - High-speed mobility management - Radio resource management and QoS support - Roadside-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-vehicle communication - Algorithms, protocols and systems for data dissemination - Channel modeling - Modulation and coding - Power control and scalability issues - Multi-channel organization and operation - Security issues and countermeasures - Privacy issues - Network management - Simulation frameworks & real-world testbeds

Submissions and Proceedings

Authors are invited to submit an electronic version of original, unpublished manuscripts via: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=von09. The manuscript should be written in English and follow IEEE two-column format with single-spaced, ten-point font in the text. The maximum manuscript length is six (6) pages including figures and references. All submitted papers will be refereed by reviewers in terms of correctness, originality, technical strength, significance and quality of presentation. The CD proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press and available online through IEEE Xplore. The enhanced version of the best-quality selected papers that have been presented at VON 2009 may be invited for publication in the special issue of international journals.

Important Dates

Paper Submission Deadline: 17 July 2009 Author Notification:  28 August 2009 Camera-ready Deadline:  2 October 2009
