EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications & Networking

Special issue on MobileMAN (Mobile Multi-hop Ad Hoc Networks): From Theory to Reality http://www.hindawi.com/journals/WCN/si/MobileMAN.html

The aim of this special issue is to present, from an experimental perspective, architectures and protocols for implementing (mobile) ad hoc networks. This special issue constitutes a unique forum to present measurements/experiences/lessons obtained by implementing ad hoc networks testbeds and prototypes. The special issue will investigate the whole protocol stack from enabling technologies to middleware and applications.

Original contributions are solicited, related to system and protocol development, measurement, and testing, in all areas related to ad hoc networking. Specifically, topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Ad hoc networks applications * System prototypes and experiences * Mobile ad hoc networks * Opportunistic and delay tolerant networks * Sensor networks * Mesh networks * Vehicular networks * Protocol implementation and testing * Middleware platforms for ad hoc networks * Ad hoc networking for pervasive environments * Situated and autonomic communications * Location services * Positioning and tracking technologies and services * Measurement studies * Mobility models based on real data * Enabling technologies measurements (802.11, 802.15, etc.) * Experiment-based socio-economic analysis of ad hoc networks

Authors should follow the EURASIP JWCN manuscript format described at the journal site http://www.hindawi.com/journals/wcn/.
