Extended Dates for Posters and Demos Submissions

MobiHoc 2005

6th ACM International Symposium on Mobile Ad Hoc Networking and Computing

May 25-28, 2005, Urbana-Champaign, Illinois, USA

http://www.sigmobile.org/mobihoc/2005/

Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE

ACM MobiHoc is the premier international meeting dedicated to addressing challenges emerging from wireless ad hoc networking and computing. Due to the growing interest in the field this year's symposium will have an expanded format that will include a highly selective, dual-track technical program for the first time, as well as hands-on research demonstrations, keynote, panel, and tutorials.

We invite poster, and demonstration submissions on mobile ad hoc networks, wireless sensor networks, and ad hoc computing systems, with the focus being on issues at and above the MAC layer. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to

. Applications, operating system, and middleware support . Analysis and design of transport, network and MAC protocols . Energy-efficient algorithms . Location discovery and management techniques . Network scaling and limits . Measurements and practical experience from experimental systems and testbeds . Cross layer design . Network resilience, fault-tolerance, and reliability . Security and defense issues . In-network processing, aggregation, and data dissemination . Distributed actuation, control, and coordination . Modeling, performance evaluation and QoS issues

POSTERS: Posters presenting early work and preliminary results are solicited. The poster session will provide an excellent opportunity for initial feedback on early research results. Posters may not preclude concurrent submissions on the same topic in regular conferences and journals. Poster descriptions of no more than 3 pages (US letter size 8.5x11 inches) using font size 10 hould be submitted to the Poster Co-Chairs before April 8, 2005. Please include the words "Poster Abstract:" to precede the title on the cover page. A selected subset of the poster abstracts will be published in ACM Mobile Computing and Communications Review.

DEMOS: Technical demonstration of experimental ad hoc networking and computing systems are solicited. One-page demo descriptions, including list of any required supporting equipment, should be sent to the Demo Chair before April 15, 2005.
