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.
