The workshop seeks to focus on three areas that are currently generating considerable interest: Metro and access networks, where optical and broadband wireless technologies are vying to realize true broadband connectivity, promising abundant, inexpensive, and readily available bandwidth; A second emphasis will be on Applications, such as Storage, Gaming and Computing that seek to exploit high speed metro area connectivity; A third area will be on Wireless networks and architectures. The realization of cost effective metro and access networks requires both theoretical investigations (including new architectures, concepts, and economic and service models) and experimentation (including prototypes, testbeds, and applications). Single-track presentations are planned to stimulate technical exchange among researchers and practitioners with a broad interest in networking; we specifically welcome submissions on both optical and broadband wireless networks and relevant experimental activities. Submissions should be short, focused, and provide a forum for discussion of new and interdisciplinary ideas. Novel and speculative ideas are particularly encouraged. Extended abstracts are solicited on any LAN/MAN topic including, but not limited to, the following: Broadband Wireless Access WiFi: roaming services, Architectures & Performance * Resilient Packet Rings * SANs and Storage over MANs * IEEE standards (802.3ah, .16, .17, .20) * Optical WDM networks based on packet, burst, and flow switching * RFid protocols & performance * Topology adaptation, reconfigurability * Network management related to LANs/MANs * Heterogeneous Wireless and Ad-Hoc Networks Emerging access networks: Ethernet in the First Mile, EPONs, FTTx Measurement, modeling and performance evaluation * QoS, dynamic bandwidth allocation, capacity placement/provisioning * Routing Issues * Network survivability, self-healing rings * Network security * Pricing, multi-vendor interoperability * Applications over MANs (Gaming, Distributed Computing) * Sensor Networks The 14th LAN/MAN workshop will be held from September 18th to 21st, 2005 in the picturesque city of Chania, Crete, Greece ( www.chania.gr ). The technical interactions at the workshop will be enhanced by the unique beauty of the city of Chania which boasts a rich cultural heritage and ancient monuments. Submission, Review and Publication: Please submit a 4-6 page extended abstract, including figures and tables. All abstracts must be electronically submitted in PDF according to the guidelines in the workshop website http://www.ieee-lanman.org. The published proceedings will include the final version of the Extended Abstract of up to 6 pages. Selected papers will be directed to a magazine or journal publication after the workshop.

    14th IEEE Workshop on Local and Metropolitan Area Networks (LANMAN
   2005)
   September 18-21, 2005, Chania, Island of Crete, Greece
   http://www.ieee-lanman.org
   Sponsored by: IEEE Communications Society
   The IEEE LAN/MAN Workshop continues its long tradition as a leading
   forum for showcasing the latest technical advances in networking in
   the local and metropolitan areas. The workshop seeks to focus on
   three areas that are currently generating considerable interest: Metro
   and access networks, where optical and broadband wireless technologies
   are vying to realize true broadband connectivity, promising abundant,
   inexpensive, and readily available bandwidth; A second emphasis will
   be on Applications, such as Storage, Gaming and Computing that seek to
   exploit high speed metro area connectivity; A third area will be on
   Wireless networks and architectures. The realization of cost effective
   metro and access networks requires both theoretical investigations
   (including new architectures, concepts, and economic and service
   models) and experimentation (including prototypes, testbeds, and
