CFP-MEDHOCNET2006: 5th Annual Mediterranean Ad Hoc Networking Workshop

von Ozgur B. Akan

We apologize in advance for the multiple copies of this CFP. ************************************************************ PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS MED HOC NET 2006 The Fifth Annual MEDITERRANEAN AD HOC NETWORKING Workshop http://www.medhoc.diit.unict.it/2006/ June 14-17 2006 Lipari, Italy ************************************************************ Ad hoc networks have attracted the attention of the research community in the last several years. Now that some of the fundamental issues and challenges of ad hoc networking have been clearly assessed, the focus is partially shifting to new issues, which include application scenarios (road safety, disaster recovery, sensors and actuators, etc.), autonomous Organization and operation, optimization and control, service creation and support, middleware. Moreover, wireless MESH networking is emerging as an "ad hoc spin-off" aimed at extending and integrating the multi-hop paradigm with more traditional networking, which poses new and exciting technical challenges. Med-Hoc-Net 2006 is the major annual international workshop aiming to serve as a platform for researchers and visionaries from academia, research labs, and industry from all over the world. Sharing ideas, views, results, and experiences in the field of wireless multi-hop networking is what Med-Hoc-Net 2006 intends to be about. Anything from theoretical and experimental achievements, to innovative ad hoc systems, prototyping efforts, and case studies is of interest to the Med-Hoc-Net community. The papers solicited in Med-Hoc-Net 2006 cover a variety of topics related to ad hoc and MESH networks, including but not limited to: - Novel multi-hop wireless network architectures - Routing algorithms and protocols - MAC protocols, scheduling, power control and radio resource sharing - Transport layer protocols for multi-hop networks - Middleware for ad hoc networks - Application driven architectures and protocols - Sensor network applications and protocols - Vehicular networks - Integration of ad hoc networks with wireless access networks - Implementations, testbeds, and prototypes - Technology related issues (IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth, ZigBee, IEEE 802.16, IEEE 802.20, etc.) - Self organization and network reconfiguration - Optimization models and algorithms - Resource and service discovery - Call admission and traffic shaping policies for ad-hoc networks - Use of advanced antenna technologies (MIMO, beam forming, etc.) - QoS support - Security and privacy The members of program committee will referee all papers, and accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. Papers of particular merit will be published in the Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks journal. Manuscripts must be formatted according to the IEEE double-column standard format, with the exception of the font size, which must be 11pt. Authors should use only standard fonts, i.e., Times Roman, Courier, Symbol, and Helvetica, or their equivalent.

Could you please provide Jan with the below requested information? Best regards Eduard ________________________________________ From: Jan Wibe [mailto:jan.wibe@plu.ntnu.no] Sent: Montag, 19. Dezember 2005 11:16 To: Eduard Dundler Cc: strous(a)iae.nl Subject: IFIP Schools / IFIP Academy Dear Eduard, Regarding the Minutes from the last GA: Item: 4.8 Technical Assembly IFIP Schools / IFIP Academy Mr von Solms reported that the document on IFIP Schools that had been prepared by the TC Chairs has been adopted by the Activity Management Board (with a minor textual adjustment) and will be proposed to GA for formal approval as a new type of IFIP event. TA is in agreement with an IFIP fee of € 2 per participant per day. The concept of the IFIP Academy will be taken up by a small team and a first discussion document is expected to be ready for TA in March 2006. Mr J Wibe will chair the team. Comment: Does it exist a complete list of the IFIP Schools which has been arranged so far? I suppose they have websites with information about them? Has these "schools" generated income for IFIP? Thank you for information if the Secretariat have it. If not, I do hope that you can send a request to the TC-chairs about it?

season's greetings

von Radford, Peter

I had this drawn to my attention the other day. It is its twentieth anniversary! (It is a parody of a rhyme that starts 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; ") Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Peter Peter Radford UK Representative to TC6 E: Peter.Radford(a)LogicaCMG.com <mailto:Peter.Radford@LogicaCMG.com> T: +44 (0) 7770 395506 (M) T: +44 (0) 20 7446 1281 (O) T: +44 (0) 1245 262328 (H) Network Working Group V. Cerf Request for Comments: 968 MCI December 1985 'Twas the Night Before Start-up' STATUS OF THIS MEMO This memo discusses problems that arise and debugging techniques used in bringing a new network into operation. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. DISCUSSION Twas the night before start-up and all through the net, not a packet was moving; no bit nor octet. The engineers rattled their cards in despair, hoping a bad chip would blow with a flare. The salesmen were nestled all snug in their beds, while visions of data nets danced in their heads. And I with my datascope tracings and dumps prepared for some pretty bad bruises and lumps. When out in the hall there arose such a clatter, I sprang from my desk to see what was the matter. There stood at the threshold with PC in tow, An ARPANET hacker, all ready to go. I could see from the creases that covered his brow, he'd conquer the crisis confronting him now. More rapid than eagles, he checked each alarm and scrutinized each for its potential harm. On LAPB, on OSI, X.25! TCP, SNA, V.35! His eyes were afire with the strength of his gaze; no bug could hide long; not for hours or days. A wink of his eye and a twitch of his head, soon gave me to know I had little to dread. He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, fixing a net that had gone plumb berserk; And laying a finger on one suspect line, he entered a patch and the net came up fine! The packets flowed neatly and protocols matched; the hosts interfaced and shift-registers latched. He tested the system from Gateway to PAD; not one bit was dropped; no checksum was bad. At last he was finished and wearily sighed and turned to explain why the system had died. I twisted my fingers and counted to ten; an off-by-one index had done it again...

New challenges include the need for service-oriented archi- tectures, autonomous and self-managing systems, peer-to-peer systems, grid computing, sensor networks, semantic enhancements, and adaptivity and dyna- micity of distribution constellations. The DAIS conference series addresses all aspects of distributed applications, including their design, implementation and operation, the supporting middleware, appropriate software engineering methodologies and tools, as well as experi- mental studies and practice reports. This time we welcome in particular contri- butions on architectures, models, technologies and platforms for interoperable, scalable and adaptable systems that are related to the latest trends towards service orientation and self-* properties. DAIS'06 is the sixth event in a series of successful international conferences which started in 1997. It will provide a forum for researchers, application and platform service vendors and users, to review, discuss and learn about new approaches, trends, concepts and experiences in the fields of distributed computing. Due to the success of the predecessor conferences and the emergence of many interesting and relevant new topics, DAIS has recently switched to a one-year-rhythm. CONFERENCE THEMES DAIS'06 solicits high quality papers reporting research results and/or experience reports. All papers must be original, unpublished, and not submitted simultaneously for publication elsewhere. DAIS'06 especially encourages submissions addressing the following topics: - novel and innovative applications in the areas of * enterprise computing * peer-to-peer systems and platforms * mobile computing * ubiquitous and pervasive computing * sensor networks - distributed application infrastructures * service-oriented frameworks, SOA, Web Services * component frameworks, such as CORBA Components, J2EE, .NET * peer-to-peer computing * mobile and wireless computing * Grid computing - software architectures supporting * autonomous systems * context-awareness * reconfiguration and adaptation * self-management * dependability - application integration and interoperability * enterprise-wide and inter-enterprise integration * integration vs. interoperability * semantic interoperability and semantic web services - life-cycle of distributed applications * modelling, specifying, monitoring and management * model-driven development and testing * tuning and re-engineering - dependability of distributed applications * trust and security * safety * fault-tolerance * dependability coordination in SOA SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Submissions must be done electronically as postscript or PDF, using the Springer LNCS style. DAIS'06 seeks: - Full technical papers in no more than 14 pages, - Work-in-progress papers, describing on-going work and interim results, in no more than 6 pages. Both categories of papers will be reviewed thoroughly by the DAIS'06 Program Committee. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published by Springer Verlag in the LNCS series. More specific guidelines on the preparation of papers can be found on the conference website. IMPORTANT DATES Abstract submission January 10, 2006 Full paper submission: January 17, 2006 Work-in-progress papers: January 31, 2006 Notification of acceptance: March 7, 2006 Camera ready version: March 28, 2006 Workshop dates: June 13, 2006 Conference dates: June 14-16, 2006 VENUE & EVENT DAIS'06 will be held in the beautiful city of Bologna, Italy, colocated with the 8th IFIP Formal Methods for Open Object-Based Distributed Systems (FMOODS'06) and Coordination'06. Attendants of DAIS'06 will have the opportunity to attend the sessions of the two colocated conferences. Bologna, a historical capital of culture, was founded by the Etruscans in the VI century B.C. Bologna sits in the southern part of the historically and gastronomically famous Po River plain, a natural crossroads in northern Italy. Bologna's location was important not only for the trading of goods but also for the exchanging of ideas and the disseminating of culture. The Università di Bologna, founded in 1088 is the oldest university in the western world. Bologna is famous for its porticoes. Dating back to the 12th century the porticoes were used to enlarge houses to support the growing University community. Today 350,000 people call Bologna their home, of which 100,000 are students. Bologna, Italy's culinary capital, is also famous for its food. Furthermore, Bologna is surrounded by the famous food/wine regions of Parma, Modena, and Tuscany. Bologna is very accessible, being served by an international airport and one of the main hubs of the Italian railway system. Within easy access is Florence (1 hour), Milan (1.5 hours), Venice (1.5 hours), Rome (2.4 hours) and the ubiquitous Italian countryside of Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany.
