E-WIND: Workshop on Experimental Approaches to Wireless Network Design and
Analysis
(An ACM SIGCOMM 2005 Workshop)
  
http://www.ece.rice.edu/E-WIND/
  
  
Research in wireless networking is rapidly becoming more
experimental. Research prototypes are being developed for systems
ranging from large-scale sensor networks to high-speed wireless access 
networks. Moreover experimentation and measurement studies are being
performed with off-the-shelf hardware and operational testbeds.
  
  
The goal of this workshop is to bring together experimentalist  
researchers from diverse backgrounds including wireless hardware 
platforms, wireless communications, wireless testbeds, and measurement
of deployed wireless systems. The workshop will provide a forum for 
exchange of ideas, challenges, and work-in-progress discussions
between both the wireless and wireline measurement communities. The 
workshop will leave a large space to discussion and possible
coordination.
