Please apologize multiple copies Call for Papers ACM DIN 2005 First International ACM* Workshop on Dynamic Interconnection of Networks http://www.docomoeurolabs.de/mobicom-2005-din-ws.html <http://www.docomoeurolabs.de/mobicom-2005-din-ws.html> , (In Conjunction with ACM MOBICOM'2005) September 2, 2005 Cologne, Germany Scope: A salient feature of future mobile networks will be support for flexible, dynamic inter-connection of networks. New kinds of mobile networks, such as Personal Area Networks (PANs), Body Area Networks (BANs), inter-vehicle networks, and sensor networks, arise and have to interconnect among themselves and with existing infrastructure. Such networks will integrate heterogeneous technologies, and their topologies are dynamic. Currently, inter-working in IP networks consists essentially of inter-domain routing. In the future, the control plane interconnection of these networks needs to enable e.g. seamless mobility, routing, QoS, multi-homed networks, charging, and security. For instance, mobility handling is different for a mobile phone, a train network or a BAN. Hence it needs to be negotiated which specific protocols to use and in which way. The owners of future mobile networks often are non-experts and hence auto-configuration is a major issue. The purpose of this workshop is to provide a forum for researchers working on interconnection of mobile networks and related topics to exchange their ideas. Topics of Interest: Original papers are invited in the area of dynamic interconnection of networks. Papers must represent high-quality and previously unpublished work. Topics of interest include: - Internetworking architectural principles - End-to-end control interconnection regarding e.g. Mobility management, routing, QoS provisioning, security, charging - Naming & addressing for inter-networking - Moving networks, ad-hoc networking and interconnection technology - Autoconfiguring networks - Self-organized internetworking Important Dates: Paper Submission Deadline: April 30th, 2005 Notification of Acceptance: June 15th, 2005 Camera-Ready Papers: July 15th, 2005 Workshop Co-Chairs: Christian Prehofer (DoCoMo Euro-Labs) lastname at docomolab-euro.com Cornelia Kappler (Siemens, Germany) firstname.lastname at siemens.com Technical PC Members: Bengt Algren (SICS, Sweden) Jon Crowcroft (Cambridge, UK) A.
