CALL FOR DEMOS AND POSTERS ------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Fifth International Workshop on Wireless Network Testbeds, Experimental evaluation and CHaracterization (WiNTECH 2010) in conjunction with ACM MobiCom 2010

September 20, 2010 Chicago, Illinois, USA

Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE

*** Demo and Poster Abstract Submission Deadline: July 5, 2010 ***

OVERVIEW AND SCOPE --------------------------------------

In recent years, some wireless technologies (e.g., WiFi, sensor networks) have matured to the point of finding wide acceptance in the real-world and leading to many new and interesting applications. At the same time, several new networking and radio technologies (e.g., dynamic spectrum access, UWB) are emerging to address the performance limitations of existing technologies and make wireless networking more ubiquitous. Realistic evaluation of such diverse set of technologies and their mutual interactions will play a major role in identifying the key performance bottlenecks, thus shape future advances in wireless technology. With this in mind, this workshop intends to bring together researchers working in the broad area of experimental wireless networking. This workshop will serve as a forum to share new ideas/experiences in all experimental aspects of wireless networks and systems, and facilitate discussions of key unresolved challenges in this area.

WiNTECH 2010 is soliciting proposals for research demonstrations of novel wireless testbed capabilities and measurement results. The session is intended to present the advances in tesbed and wireless characterizations and to foster discussions on future directions for wireless network evaluations. Innovations can be at any layer, from physical to application. In addition, we particularly encourage innovations that span over multiple layers and/or multiple heterogeneous exerimental platforms (federation of testbeds).

The demo must be presented live, i.e. a presentation of a demo (powerpoint, video, etc) only is not allowed. Also, we emphasize that the demo session is not a forum to display commercial products.

WiNTECH 2010 is also seeking proposals for posters describing novel work in wireless network testbeds, measurements and characterizations. The posters may describe work in progress and offers an excellent opportunity for feedback and discussions on early research. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Design and evaluation of wireless testbeds, prototypes and platforms * Experiences/lessons from recent testbed design efforts * Hybrid experimentation approaches combining use of multiple evaluation methodologies * Federation of diverse and distributed testbed infrastructures * Testbed management issues and monitoring support * Wireless testbed case studies * Experimental evaluation of applications and protocols (at different layers), and the impact of cross-layer interactions * Large-scale and heterogeneous wireless network evaluations * Approaches for real-world evaluation of mobile networks * Evaluation environments for sensor and satellite networks * Techniques for improving reproducibility of real-world testing * Implementation approaches to ease transition between various evaluation methodologies as well as to improve testbed accessibility * New measurement methodologies and infrastructures * Measurement and characterization (modeling) of various real-world aspects such as usage patterns, traffic, mobility and channel characteristics * Interference and spectrum usage measurements * Validation of existing simulation models, and results across different testbeds/evaluation methodologies * Software tools in support of measurements, trace/data collection and management * Techniques for improving resource sharing and utilization within and accross multiple testbeds

For submission instructions please refer the workshop website. All submissions will be reviewed by the technical program committee and will be judged by their technical merit and relevance to workshop. The extended abstract of the accepted posters and demos will be published in the workshop proceedings and will be available at the ACM digital library.
