********************************************************************************
SCOPE:
======
Mobile computing and communications devices will have an enormous
impact on our lifestyle over the next several decades as the true
integration of personal computing, distributed computing, cellular
technologies and the Web becomes the reality. In the light of
continuously increasing interaction between communication and
computing, there arise a number of interesting, and difficult
algorithmic issues in diverse areas including coverage, mobility,
routing, cooperation, capacity planning, scheduling, and power
control.
This workshop is devoted to cover contributions in both the design and
analysis of discrete and distributed algorithms and the system
modeling in the context of mobile, wireless, ad-hoc, and sensor
networks. In particular, it aims at bringing together the
practitioners and theoreticians of the field and is intended to foster
cooperation among researchers in mobile computing and researchers in
discrete and distributed algorithms. DIAL M-POMC 2008 will be held in
August in Toronto, Canada, and will be co-located with PODC 2008.
PAPERS: Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished
research, not currently under review by another conference or journal,
are solicited. Contributions are solicited in all areas related to
mobile and wireless computing and communications where discrete
algorithms and methods are utilized. Specific topics include, but are
not limited to:
* Channel assignment and management
* Cryptography and security
* Handover (handoff)
* Routing, multicast and broadcast
* Scheduling
* Synchronization
* Selfish behavior and cooperation
* Energy saving methods and protocols
* Ad hoc and sensor networking
* Localization and location tracking
* Error correcting codes
* Protocol optimization
* Dynamic networks
* Cooperation enforcement
* Dynamic graph algorithms
* Modeling
The program committee will referee all papers, and accepted papers
will be published in the conference proceedings. Planned highlights of
DIAL M-POMC 2008 will also include invited talks.
