CALL FOR PAPERS
2005 Second International Workshop on Mobile and Wireless Ad Hoc Networking
(MWAN05)
in conjunction with
The 2005 International Conference on Wireless Networks
The 2005 International Multiconference in Computer Science and Computer
Engineering
Monte Carlo Resort Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
June 27-30, 2005

WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES
Wireless connectivity with mobility support will become an important
enabling technology in future computing infrastructure. Especially,
IP-based mobile networks as well as mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) attract
a lot of attention with the advent of inexpensive wireless LAN solutions
such as IEEE 802.11, Bluetooth, and HIPERLAN technologies. However, the
introduction of mobility raises a number of new research issues. This
workshop seeks papers describing significant research contributions to the
field of mobile ad hoc networking and computing. Technical papers
describing original, previously unpublished research, not currently under
review by another conference or journal, are solicited. We are especially
interested in the theory, practice, and evaluation of mobile and wireless ad
hoc networking, ad hoc computing, and sensor networks.
TOPICS OF INTEREST Workshop topics include (but not limited to):
- Media access techniques
- Routing in ad hoc networks (unicast, multicast, etc.)
- Quality-of-service issues
- Security and fault-tolerance issues
- Self-configuration and distributed algorithms for mobile ad hoc networks
- Transport-layer issues
- Interaction between different layers of mobile ad hoc networks
- Integration and internetworking of wired and wireless networks
- Mobile ad hoc computing platforms, systems, and testbeds
- Low power and energy-efficient designs
- Distributed wireless sensor networks
- Pervasive computing and information services
- Applications for ad hoc networks

SUBMISSION
Authors are requested to submit draft papers not exceeding 5 pages
(single-spaced, font size of 10 or 11) in PDF format that include contact
information of all the authors to Prof. Ben Lee (benl@eecs.orst.edu). The
length of the cameral-ready papers will be limited to 7 IEEE style pages. If you have any questions regarding the submission process, please send
e-mail to benl@eecs.orst.edu.
PROCEEDINGS
The papers from this workshop will be published in the proceedings of The
2005 International Conference on Wireless Networks by CSREA Press (ISBN).
The proceedings will be available at the conference (CD version of the
proceedings will also be available). Some accepted papers will also be
considered for journal publication. Last year a number of authors from the
MWAN04 workshop were invited to submit extended versions of their paper to a
Special Issue on "Wireless Networks and Pervasive Computing" for the Journal
of Pervasive Computing and Communications (JPCC)
