WORKSHOP THEME

Vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) use in-vehicle, vehicle-to-roadside infrastructure and vehicle-to-backoffice communication to provide drivers with safety- and efficiency- related services. The design and implementation of these services in a high-performance, reliable, scalable, secure and privacy-preserving fashion presents exciting research challenges. Additionally, the experimentation and validation in VANETs either relies on simulations or testbeds. On the one hand, simulation requires realistic network and mobility models. On the other hand, with the emergence of communications standards and hardware, prototyping and testbeds allow to obtain performance measures under real-word conditions such as realistic signal propagation and vehicles' mobility. VANETs are therefore a popular and active research field with many ongoing large-scale projects involving governments, academia and industry.

The workshop on VANETs from Theory to Practice (VTP 2012) will to bring together researchers on VANETs to present and discuss recent advances in the development of inter-vehicular networking technologies. The workshop covers all theoretical and practical aspects related to applications modelling, simulation, prototyping and testbeds in VANETs.

Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Simulation frameworks
• Safety and traffic information applications
• Telematics applications
• Electric vehicle applications
• Security and privacy issues
• Network management
• Mobility modelling
• Mobility prediction and control
• Power control and scalability issues
• Multi-channel organization and operation
• Channel modelling and allocation
• Modulation and coding
• Communication protocol design
• Vehicle-to-vehicle/roadside/backoffice communication
• Cross-layer design
• Validation of simulation models
• Innovative measurement methodologies and tools
• Experiences/lessons from recent testbed deployments and measurements
• Field operational testing

Both theoretical papers and papers describing practical experiences will be welcome.

PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION

Papers should contain original material and not be previously published, or currently submitted for consideration elsewhere. Accepted papers will be published by the IEEE in the combined WoWMoM 2012 proceedings, hence manuscripts must be formatted in accordance with the IEEE Computer Society author guidelines. The IEEE LaTeX and Microsoft Word templates, as well as related information, can be found on the [IEEE Computer Society website] (http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting). Submission must be limited to 6 pages, single spacing, double column, and must STRICTLY adhere to the template format.

PDF version of your contribution should be submitted via the workshop EDAS website: http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=11881. Each paper will receive a minimum of two reviews. Papers will be selected based on their originality, relevance, technical clarity and presentation. Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be registered and presented at the workshop.

In case of question/problems regarding the submission process, please send an email to [Julien Schleich](julien.schleich@uni.lu).
