FOWANC 2009

The Second ACM International Workshop on Foundations of Wireless

Ad Hoc and Sensor Networking and Computing

May 18, 2009, New Orleans, LA, USA

http://nrl.uncc.edu/FOWANC/

In conjunction with ACM MobiHoc 2009

Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE

CONFERENCE THEME

Recent research in a variety of wireless ad hoc networks, such as mobile ad hoc

networks (MANETs), wireless mesh networks, wireless sensor networks, wireless

personal area networks, vehicular networks, RFID networks, and hybrid networks,

raises a number of interesting, and difficult, theoretical and algorithmic issues.

This workshop is devoted to distributed algorithms and theoretical methods in the

context of mobile ad hoc and sensor networking and computing. The workshop is

intended to foster cooperation among researchers in mobile ad hoc and sensor

networking and theoreticians in algorithm and theory, and push the theoretical

research forward for a deeper understanding about ad hoc and sensor networking

and computing.

This workshop covers the all areas of ad hoc and sensor networking and computing,

from physical issues up to applications, with a focus of theoretical and algorithmic

aspect. In particular, it will cover distributed algorithms, optimizations, analysis

and modeling, randomized algorithms, mechanism design, and theoretical methods in

ad hoc and sensor networking and computing.

TYPICAL TOPICS INCLUDE (but not limited to):

Channel assignment and management

Coding theory and network coding

Cryptography, security and privacy

Distributed algorithms

Dynamic and random networks

Dynamic graph algorithms

Energy conservation methods and protocols

Localization and location tracking

Mechanism design and game theory

Modeling and complexity analysis

Routing, multicast and broadcast

Scheduling

Selfish behavior and cooperation

Synchronization Protocol optimization
