Liebe Kollegen,

ich moechte Sie gern auf die bevorstehende Einreichungsfrist fuer die WONS 2010 hinweisen. In den Bereichen drahtlose Kommunikation, Ad hoc und Sensornetze, Fahrzeugkommunikation, soziale Netze und P2P, etc. wurden in den letzten Jahren sehr interessante Papiere veroeffentlicht.

Viele Gruesse, Falko Dressler

CALL FOR PAPERS - IEEE/IFIP WONS 2010

The Seventh International Conference on Wireless On-demand Network Systems and Services

Technical sponsorship: EuroNF, IFIP, IEEE, IEEE ComSoc February 3-5, 2010. Kranjska Gora, Slovenia

Scope of the conference

As more and more users become increasingly dependent on wireless and mobile communications, it is necessary to secure a reliable and dependable technology support for "on-demand" services through any of the wireless architectures that have been in development recently, such as mesh networks, wimax, wifi, ad hoc networks, sensor networks, etc.

However, there are serious challenges to overcome, such as the integration of infrastructure-based and ad hoc networks, robust algorithms for self-organizing, reconfigurable wireless networks, on- demand service models and their provision in a highly-volatile interconnection environment, and smooth interoperability of architectures.

WONS, now in its seventh edition, has established itself as a high- quality forum to address these challenges in the context of a workshop that is rich in intense interactions and based on innovative contributions by experts in the field.

This announcement solicits original submissions of high-quality research papers on "wireless on demand networks" that provide novel insights on protocol and network design, modeling and performance evaluation, pricing and profitability models, QoS models, practical implementations, service level aspects and Internet integration of wireless networks.

Topics related to wireless ad hoc networks, mesh networks, vehicular networks and sensor networks comprise, but are not limited to:

* Architecture and Design * Analysis through simulation and experimental evaluation * Modeling * Internet integration * Social and economic aspects * Pervasive / ubiquitous computing * Localization and mobility management * Security * Energy-efficient protocols and power management * Applications and Service Support * Data dissemination and Peer-to-Peer systems * Middleware aspects * Self-X and network management

A special session on Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) will be organized by Prosense (European FP7 Project).

Manuscript submissions

Submitted papers must not have been published elsewhere nor currently be under review by another conference or journal. Authors are invited to submit double-column full (8 pages) and short papers (4 pages) in PDF format having a font size no smaller than 10pt. Short papers should present future research directions, ongoing work, visionary, innovative ideas; accepted short papers will populate poster sessions at the conference and will be included in the conference proceedings. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. Conference proceedings will be included in the IEEE Xplore library.

Further submission instructions will be published on the conference web site.
