This year, RTN 2009 particularly encourages submissions on Wireless Sensor Networks and Applications. Prospective authors are also encouraged to address any issues about real-time, QoS and dependability in computer networks. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Wireless Sensor Networks and Applications (highlight of this year) * Real-Time Tracking * Cyber-Physical Systems, Internet of Things * Wireless Technologies (IEEE 802.11, IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee, WiMax, UWB) * Communication Protocols: ( MAC and Network layer issues, distributed scheduling, etc.) * Networked Embedded Systems * Infrastructures for Ubiquitous and Pervasive Computing Systems * Performance Evaluation, Simulation and Modeling Tools * Real-Time Network Management * Time Synchronization * Quality of Service and Dependable Systems * Domotics, Automotive Networks * Implementation, Experimentation and Case Studies

====================== FORMAT OF THE WORKSHOP ======================

The workshop will feature invited talks, including keynotes, panel discussions and submitted contributions.

============================= PAPER SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS =============================

To submit your paper (PDF) to the workshop, please visit the RTN'09 online submission system at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rtn09 and login with your account. Follow the instructions to submit your manuscript.
