** Two Weeks to Deadline: December 8, 2013 **
WONS 2014 - Call For Papers
The 11th Annual Conference on
Wireless On-demand Network Systems and Services
Technical sponsorship: IEEE/IFIP
April 2-4, 2014
Obergurgl, Austria
http://2014.wons-conference.org/
Increasingly more people become dependent on wireless and mobile
communications. It is therefore necessary to ensure that they get
connectivity and service support on demand. This may be provided by a
new generation of wireless technologies such as mesh networks, ad hoc
delay tolerant and opportunistic networks, sensor networks, and
vehicular networks. The technologies will be integrated with the
Internet, the cloud, and with legacy wireless technologies such as 3G
and 4G cellular and WiFi.
There are many challenges to be addressed, including integration of
infrastructure-based and ad hoc networks, development of robust and
lightweight algorithms for self-organization, reconfiguration at all
layers of the protocol stack, as well as on-demand service models and
their provision in a highly dynamic environments with mobile users.
IEEE/IFIP WONS, now in its eleventh edition, has established itself as a
high-quality forum to address these challenges based on innovative
contributions by experts in the field who meet in the context of a
conference that is rich in interactions.
This announcement solicits original submissions of high-quality research
papers on "wireless on-demand networks" that provide novel insights on
protocol and network design, modeling, performance evaluation,
profitability models, energy efficiency, QoS models and mechanisms,
practical implementations, service level aspects, application use cases
and Internet integration of wireless networks.
Topics related to all kinds of wireless on-demand networks comprise, but
are not limited to:
* New architectures for on-demand wireless systems
* Intra-body and biomedical on-demand systems
* Performance evaluation through simulations and experiments
* Modeling, optimization, and game theoretic aspects
* Integration and co-existence of heterogeneous technologies
* Social and economic aspects
* Pervasive and ubiquitous computing
* Localization and mobility management
* Security, privacy, and trust
* Novel applications and services
(e.g. mobile augmented reality and mobile cloud)
* Energy-efficient protocols and power management
* Cross-layer design
* Implementations and testbeds
* Opportunistic, delay-tolerant, and dissemination-based protocols
* Mobile peer-to-peer systems
* Middleware aspects
* Self-X and network management
* Cognitive radio networks
* Green wireless networks
Manuscript submissions
----------------------
Submitted papers must not have been published elsewhere and must not be
currently under review by another conference or journal. Authors are
invited to submit double-column full (up to 8 pages) and short papers
(up to 4 pages) as a PDF file in IEEE format with a font size no smaller
than 10pt. Short papers should present future research directions and
ongoing work with visionary, innovative ideas; accepted short papers
will populate poster sessions at the conference and will be included in
the conference proceedings. Submission implies the willingness of at
least one of the authors to register and present the paper. Conference
proceedings will be included in the IEEE Xplore library.
Further submission instructions are published on the conference web site
