ACM WMASH'2005
The Third ACM International Workshop on Wireless Mobile Applications and
Services on WLAN Hotspots
http://wmash2005.ece.iastate.edu/
Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE
(In Conjunction with ACM MOBICOM'2005)
September 2, 2005
Cologne, Germany
The goal of the workshop is to address and discuss the technical and
business challenges, ideas, views, and research results in providing
public wireless Internet services and applications for nomadic users in
small, highly-populated, public spaces (wireless LANs and "hotspots").
We are specifically interested in work dealing with network layer and
above (layers 3-7). However, cross-layer solutions including MAC
interaction as well as ESS management via IAPP are welcome. Within the
context of interest to this workshop, a list of topics includes, but is
not limited to:
- Applications and services
- New service and business models
- Public WLAN and hotspot architectures
- Community-owned WLAN infrastructures
- WLAN-based ad-hoc network service creation and management
- Metro-area hotspots using 802.11/802.16 mesh
- Multi-radio mesh node designs
- Self-configuring mesh networks for public hotspots
- Mobile routers for transient, portable hotspots
- Application case studies of mobile routers
- Interworking with other wireless systems, e.g., 3G, 802.16
- Mobility, roaming, and handoff management
- Context-aware services and technologies
- Location-aware applications and services
- Multimedia wireless applications, e.g., Voice over WLAN (VoWLAN)
- Authentication, accounting, billing and payment issues
- Security and privacy in public WLANs
- Middleware support
- Service location and discovery
- Traffic measurements and modeling
- Case studies on deployed platforms and experimental testbeds
Please consult the Program Co-Chairs Renato Lo Cigno
(locigno@dit.unitn.it) and Milind M. Buddhikot
(milind@dnrc.bell-labs.com) if you are uncertain whether your paper
falls within the scope of the workshop.
Important Dates:
- Paper/Poster Submission Deadline: May 6, 2005, 5pm EST (Extended)
- Notification: July 1, 2005
- Camera Ready Due: July 20, 2005
Paper and Poster Submission Guidelines:
We solicit two types of contributions, i.e., regular papers and posters.
Submitted regular papers must not be currently under review for any other
publication.
The poster session will provide an excellent opportunity for initial
feedback on early research results.
Posters may not preclude concurrent submissions on the same topic in regular
conferences and journals.
Both regular papers and poster descriptions will be published in the
workshop proceedings,
which will be available at the ACM digital library.
The lengths of a regular paper and a poster description are limited by 10
and 3 pages, respectively.
Visit the conference website at http://wmash2005.ece.iastate.edu for the
paper format and submission guideline.
