CFP: WirelessCom'05 Symposium on Home Networks: CfP
by Giovanni Pau 09 Mar '05

09 Mar '05

Dear collegue, Last CFP for the Symposium on Home and Personal Communications Co-Located with Wirelesscom 2005, Maui, Hawaii, USA. I apologize for multiple postings. Regards Giovanni Pau ========================================================== Symposium on Home and Personal Network Communications WIRELESSCOM 2005 June 13-16, 2005 Sheraton Maui Resort Maui, Hawaii, USA ========================================================= The home is widely predicted to be the next major deployment environment for data networks, but it presents some novel and unusual challenges that have not been primary concerns in network deployments until now. For example, home networks will be installed by less knowledgeable users, must hit low cost points and will need to be able to carry more varied types of data than has previously been the case. The symposium is an opportunity for researchers and authors to meet each other and share new developments and opportunities. Papers on all aspects of Home and Personal Network Communications are solicited for this symposium. Some representative topics include (but are not limited to): - Home LANs and PANs (IEEE 1394, Bluetooth, HomePNA, HomeRF, HomePlug) - Multimedia Applications - Networked appliances - Surveillance, home monitoring - Virtual home environment - QoS Measurement/Modeling - In-Home Network Management - Body and PANs - Network Security and Privacy - Residential Gateways - Vehicle Networks - Residential Gateways PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Please submit the papers following the guidelines to one of the co-chairs. IMPORTANT DATES Mar 15, 2005 FINAL DEADLINE for submission of papers April 15, 2005 Notification of acceptance May 1, 2005 Submission of camera-ready version of accepted papers Symposium Co-Chair Stefano Galli Telcordia Technologies One Telcordia Dr Piscataway, NJ 08854 sgalli(a)research.telcordia.com Stan Moyer Telcordia Technologies One Telcordia Dr Piscataway, NJ 08854 stanm(a)research.telcordia.com Symposium Vice-Chair Madjid Merabti Liverpool John Moores University UK m.merabti(a)livjm.ac.uk Technical Program Committee Moncef Elaoud (Telcordia Technologies, USA) Marco Roccetti (University of Bologna, Italy) Giovanni Pau (UCLA, USA) Raju Rangaswami (Florida International University, USA) Xiaoxin Wu (Purdue University, USA) Heather Yu (Panasonic Research, USA)

Communications among nodes which are not directly reachable, are carried out through multihop paths. Their topology is dynamic, decentralized and ever changing due to the arbritarily movement of ad hoc nodes. We are interested in work in progress, experimental and theoretical research in Ad-hoc, Mobile and Wireless Networks. Topics of interest for which we are soliciting papers include, but are not limited to, the following: *Access control, scheduling *Ad hoc and sensor networks *Analytic methods and modelling for performance evaluation, optimization... *Auto-configuration *Incentives and pricing *Location awareness, discovery, dependence, and management *Mesh networks *New applications *Power management, power control, and energy-efficiency *Quality-of-service, resource allocation, multimedia *Routing (unicast, multicast, etc.) *Security and privacy *Service discovery *Systems and testbeds *Wireless Internet, and data management PROCEEDINGS ----------- The proceedings of Ad hoc Now 2005 will be published by Springer-Verlag, as part of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LCNS) series.

I am sure that you are aware of the existing ACC 05 conference, IEEE's AC meeting and Globecom's mtg. Filling space with too many conferences can be counterproductive to the creation of a cohesive community. One or two meeting a year on a specific subject can be enough at a formative stage. ________________________________ De: owner-acf-members(a)autonomic-communication-forum.org de la part de Ioannis Stavrakakis Date: mar. 08/03/2005 10:06 À: acf-members(a)autonomic-communication-forum.org; tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu; IFIP_TC6.3_LIST (IFIP_TC6.3_LIST); ifip-tc6(a)informatik.rwth-aachen.de Cc: Ioannis Stavrakakis (Ioannis Stavrakakis) Objet : ACF-Members: Autonomic Communication wkshp - WAC2005, Oct_2005, Athens - CFP (Sorry for duplicates) Dear Colleagues: Attached please find the CFP for the 2nd IFIP Workshop on Autonomic Communication (WAC2005) to take place in place in Vouliagmeni-Athens, Greece on Oct 3-5, 2005.
