Call for Papers
2004 IEEE CONSUMER COMMUNICATIONS AND NETWORKING CONFERENCE “Consumer Networking: Closing the Digital Divide”
(Precedes the CES 2004 International Consumer Electronics Show: www.cesweb.org), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA / 5-8 January, 2004
Sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society
The first IEEE Consumer Communications and Networking Conference (CCNC'2004) will be held on 5-8 January, 2004 in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, just prior to the Consumer Electronics Show (www.cesweb.org).
The demand for networked consumer systems and devices is large and growing rapidly. At home, in a car or truck, at work or at play, Internet citizens want transparent internetworking for the systems and devices that provide entertainment, information, and communications. This internetworking should be on-demand, with whomever or whatever they want, regardless of time or location. As a result, consumer networking is gaining increasing attention from industry, spawning a range of dramatically different solutions including wireless, wireline, and power line networked communications environments, each with their own strengths and special challenges to overcome. This in turn has defined the scope of consumer networking to range from body and personal area networking, to home networking and wide area networking. In the not too distant future, we will see ad hoc networking augmented with sensors sharing networked knowledge that enables devices and systems to seamlessly interact with the Internet and wide area wireless systems such as WiFi, 3G and future 4G networks. And this is just the beginning!
This phenomenon, "Consumer Communications and Networking," has been attracting many researchers in diverse areas from networking to consumer electronics. This conference will present the latest approaches and technical solutions in the area of consumer networking, enabling technologies such as middleware and multimedia, and novel applications and services. The conference will include a peer-reviewed program of technical sessions, technology application panels, tutorials, and poster sessions. CCNC 2004 provides a compelling forum for formal discussion and socialization of many of these research challenges with seasoned practitioners and colleagues from both industry and academia.
Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished papers, which are not under review in any other conference or journal in the following, but not limited to, topic areas:
Networking: - Home LANs (802.11,HiperLAN, Bluetooth, HomePlug) - Vehicle Networks - Body & Personal Area Networks - Ad-Hoc Networks - Sensor Networks - Entertainment Networks - Broadcast Networks - TV-Centric Home Networks - Home Information Infrastructure - Residential Gateways - Interworking (Internet, 3G/4G, etc.) - Network Management & Control - Network Security - Privacy Issues - Protocols - QoS support, Performance
