CALL FOR PAPER

The Fourth Workshop on Wireless Ad hoc and Sensor Networks (WWASN2007)

in conjunction with the International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems (IEEE ICDCS 2007)

Monday, June 25, 2007 in Toronto, ON, Canada

http://www.cs.umanitoba.ca/~softart/WWASN2007.html

CONFERENCE THEME This workshop covers the area of ad hoc and sensor networking, from physical issues to applications aspects. In particular, it will cover physical, data link, network and transport layers, as well as applications, security, simulation and power management issues in sensor, local area, personal, and mobile ad hoc networks. Among the goals of the workshop is to review ad hoc and sensor network protocols and models, and to reflect the latest advances in the state of the art in modeling, design, and deployment of such networks.

Typical topics include (but not limited to):

Key communication abstractions for ad hoc and sensor networks Topology construction and maintenance Physical, media access, and routing layers Routing, broadcasting and multicasting Energy-efficient protocols Quality of service in medium access control and routing Fault tolerance and redundancy schemes IEEE 802.11 and 802.15.x-based medium access control Hybrid networks and wireless internet Models for analysis, performance assessment, mobility, and validation models Methods and tools for ad hoc and sensor networks simulation Heterogeneous networks and challenges in analyzing and designing them Pervasive and wearable computing Security, trust, and other security-related issues Data management issues, query processing, and data delivery Applications and history of ad hoc and sensor networks

IMPORTANT DATES Manuscript Submission: January 1, 2007 (extended) Acceptance Notification: February 15, 2006 Final Manuscript Due at IEEE: around March 15, 2006

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS Papers should be submitted via email to program chairs (vmisic@cs.umanitoba.ca and ywang32@uncc.edu). Papers should be submitted in PDF format, using either the IEEE Computer Society proceedings format (two column, 10 point, single-spaced) or a single-column, 12 point, at least 1.5 line spacing format. There are no page lenth restrictions on the length of submitted papers, but note that the paper length for accepted papers will be limited; the exact details to be determined later. (For your guidance, last year's limit was 6 pages in the IEEE CS proceedings format.) Number each page in the manuscript. Include an abstract, five to ten keywords, the technical area(s) most relevant to your paper, and the corresponding author's e-mail address. Accepted papers will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press as part of the proceedings of ICDCS'2007 workshops, provided that each paper has at least one accompanying registration.
