CALL FOR PAPERS

2005 International Workshop on Pervasive Wireless Networking (PWN05)
http://www.eecs.orst.edu/~benl/PWN05

in conjunction with

Third IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and
Communications
(PerCom 2005) <http://www.percom.org>

Kauai Island, Hawaii
March 8-12, 2005

WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES

Wireless connectivity with mobility support is an important enabling
technology for pervasive computing and communications.  Especially,
IP-based mobile networks that are both infrastructured and
infrastructureless attract a lot of attention with the advent of
inexpensive wireless LAN solutions such as IEEE 802.11, HIPERLAN, and
Bluetooth technologies.  However, the introduction of mobility raises a
number of new research issues. This workshop will seek papers describing
significant research contributions to the theory, practice, and
evaluation of wireless networks for pervasive computing.  Technical
papers describing original, previously unpublished research, not
currently under review by another conference or journal, are solicited.
Workshop topics include (but not limited to):

Ad hoc networking and service discovery
Media access techniques and protocols
Power aware protocols
Quality-of-service issues
Personal Area Networks
Home networking
Distributed wireless sensor networks
Security and fault-tolerance issues
Self-configuration and distributed algorithms for mobile ad hoc networks

Integration and internetworking of wired and wireless networks
Pervasive network platforms, systems, and testbeds
Pervasive computing and information services
Applications for ad hoc networks


SUBMISSION

Authors are requested to submit original papers of no more than 10 pages
(single-column format, 11-point font size, and 1.5 line spacing),
including figures, tables, and references in PDF format that include
contact information of all the authors to Prof. Ben Lee
(benl@eecs.orst.edu).  Authors can also submit manuscripts in standard
IEEE proceedings format (two-column format with a five page limit).  If
you have any questions regarding the submission process, please send
e-mail to benl@eecs.orst.edu. The papers from this workshop will be
published in the proceedings of the Third Annual IEEE International
conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications by IEEE Press.
