WiMesh 2006
Second IEEE Workshop on Wireless Mesh Networks
(To be held in conjunction with SECON 2006)
Reston, Virginia, USA
Monday, 25th September, 2006
Wireless mesh networking is attracting significant interest as a low-cost
networking platform to support ubiquitous broadband access in the context of
home networking, enterprise networking, or a larger, community or metro-
scale networking. Many universities, as well as industrial labs have
on-going
research projects on various aspects of mesh networking, including
architectures, protocols, services and applications. Several startups are
building mesh networking platforms and deploying services. WiMesh 2006 is a
one-day forum for meeting, presenting and discussing core technical issues
and current research problems in wireless mesh networking. It will follow up
on the success of WiMesh 2005 and will be held in conjunction with the SECON
2006 conference. WiMesh features select publications and talks by leading
researchers in the field.

**********************************************************************
Networking 2007 is the sixth event in a series of International
Conferences on Networking, sponsored by the IFIP Technical Committee
on Communication Systems (TC 6). The main objectives of Networking
2007 are to bring together active and proficient members of the
networking community, from both academia and industry, to discuss
recent advances in this broad and fast-evolving field of
telecommunications, and to highlight key-issues, identify trends and
refresh vision in the field of telecommunications.
The conference objectives will be pursued through technical sessions,
keynote talks, and tutorials offered by invited experts, as well as
panel discussions on hot topics. The technical sessions will be
structured into three tracks. Authors are encouraged to submit full
papers describing original, previously unpublished, complete research,
not currently under review by another conference or journal,
addressing state-of-the-art research and development in all areas of
computer networking. Topics include, but are not limited to:
(1) Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks:
===============================
Authentication and security; Algorithms and protocols; Admission
control; Data dissemination; Environment monitoring; Energy and
resource consumption; Fault tolerance and error recovery;
Interconnection of ad hoc / wired networks; Localization; Location
services; MAC protocols; Mesh networks; Mobility; Modeling and
performance evaluation; Network reconfiguration; Power management;
Quality of Service; Resource allocation; Routing; Scheduling;
Self-organization; Time synchronization; Traffic shaping;
(2) Wireless Networks:
======================
