This message is cross-posted to several lists. Apologies for any duplicate postings. IEEE MASS 2007 (http://www.ieee-mass.org <http://www.ieee-mass.org/> ) The Fourth IEEE International Conference on Mobile Ad-hoc and Sensor Systems Call For Papers Wireless multi-hop communication is envisioned in multiple scenarios where network nodes communicate via other network nodes: conferences, hospitals, battlefields, rescue operations, environment control, cars-to-cars, and monitoring scenarios. Wireless mesh networks have been applied as alternatives for providing Internet access in remote business and residential areas. Wireless sensor networks are being deployed for several industrial control processes and for monitoring environment. This conference aims to address multi-hop ad-hoc and sensor networks systems, covering topics ranging from technology issues up to the applications aspects. Original manuscripts that focus on the analytical modeling, protocol/algorithm design, and/or experimental studies of the following topics of interest are sought: * physical layer impact on higher level protocols * MAC protocols for ad-hoc and sensor networks (802.11, 802.15.4, UWB) Provisioning of wireless QoS in terms of bandwidth and delay assurance * Routing protocols (unicast, multicast, broadcast, geocast) and routing metrics * Data transport in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks * Power-aware and energy-efficient design * Topology construction and coverage maintenance * Cross layer design and optimization * Incentives and game theoretic approaches in wireless ad-hoc networks * Localization and synchronization in wireless sensor networks * Data gathering, fusion, and dissemination in wireless sensor * Reliability, security, and trustworthiness issues in ad hoc and sensor networks * Operating system and middleware support * Measurements and practical experience from experimental systems and test-beds * Modeling, analysis and performance evaluation * Mesh networking * Delay tolerant networks and opportunistic networking * Handoff and mobility management and seamless internetworking * Peer-to-peer, overlay, and content distribution wireless ad hoc networks * Reliability, security, and trustworthiness issues in ad hoc and sensor networks Paper submission All submissions must be full papers in .pdf or .ps (PostScript) format.

Open Access Proposal

von Otto Spaniol

Dear all, I'm still waiting for your comments concerning the "Open Access proposal" made by Springer SSBM. Until now, I received only one comment made by Adam Grzech who finds the Springer proposal acceptable. In the same line (basically) there is a remark made by Arrigo Frisiani (IFIP trustee); see attachment. Arrigo is sceptical about in-house solutions due to a number of reasons (which I can fully support and which don't have to be repeated here). Moreover, he doesn't care too much about the perpetuity of any solution (since if Springer goes bankrupt then the same is very well possible for other organisations, too - including IFIP). This feeling is also fully supported by me. Basically, Springer would request 20 percent higher bulk sale prices for the Open Access Prices but: "Nothing is for free" and, to my opinion, this increase in price is comparatively modest. TC6 made so many harsh statment concerning the necessity of an Open Access Digital Library (in particular during the Coimbra meeting); thus we will now need an answer about whether the Springer SSBM proposal is acceptable for us or not. I should give this combined answer from TC6 to Joe Turner (chair of the publication committee) by November 24. Best regards Otto cc.: Arrigo Luigi Frisiani

[mycolleagues] CFP: The Second IEEE International Symposium on Pervasive Computing and Ad Hoc Communications (PCAC-07)

von Mieso Denko

This message is cross-posted to several lists. Apologies for any duplicate postings. CALL FOR PAPERS ================================================================== The Second IEEE International Symposium on Pervasive Computing and Ad Hoc Communications (PCAC-07) http://pcac07.ehpclab.org/ to be held in conjunction with The IEEE 21th International Conference on Advanced Information Networking and Applications (AINA-07),Niagara Falls, Canada, May 21-23, 2007 http://www.aina-conference.org/2007/ =================================================================== Aims and Scopes --------------- Pervasive computing has emerged as a new computing and communication environment with the aim of providing services anytime and anywhere for everyone. To facilitate resource sharing and support group communications, pervasive computing devices should be able to support ad hoc communications and networking. With ad hoc communications, seamless and transparent access to services and applications can be achieved while providing mechanisms for establishing spontaneous and interactive networking among communicating entities. Despite considerable progress in mobile computing and wireless communication technologies, new user demands and emerging applications introduce challenges in several areas including security, privacy, processing, auto configuration, scalability, software infrastructure, communication models and networking infrastructure. To support flexibility and unlimited mobility, services and applications should adapt to heterogeneous networking environment supporting multihop communication in hybrid wired/wireless environment. This symposium will bring together researchers and practitioners from industry and academia to present their current research results and discuss future trends in pervasive computing and ad hoc communications. Topics of Interest ------------------ Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Pervasive computing architectures - Wearable computers - Smart devices and smart spaces - Location-dependent and personalized applications - Service discovery mechanisms - Agent technologies - Mobility management - Sensors and actuators - Resource management - Embedded systems - Device and service interaction - Location-aware services - Middleware for pervasive computing - Middleware fro ad hoc computing - Hardware, OS and convergence issues - Security and privacy issues for pervasive computing systems - Positioning and tracking technologies - Identification and authentication technologies - Social Issues and Implications of pervasive computing - Data management infrastructure and algorithms - Caching and prefetching strategies - Resource discovery - Ad hoc communication and networking - Group communication and management - Ad hoc computing - User interfaces and interaction models - Prototyping and performance evaluation - Personal Area networks - Integration of wired and wireless networks - Enabling technologies such as Bluetooth, 802.11, 802.15, 802.16, and 802.20 - Context based and implicit computing - Ad hoc networking protocols and service discovery - Wireless Mesh Network Submissions and Proceedings --------------------------- The manuscript should follow IEEE two-column format with single-spaced, ten-point font in the text. The maximum manuscript length is eight (8) pages. Submissions will be judged on correctness, originality,technical strength, significance and quality of presentation. The CD proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press and available online through IEEE Xplore. Outstanding papers will be considered for a Special Issue in Journal of Ubiquitous Computing and Intelligence (JUCI) (http://www.aspbs.com/juci.html).
