Scope:
The field of ad hoc, sensor and mesh networking is reemerging amid
unprecedented growth in the scale and diversity of computer networking. A
Mobile ad hoc network (Manet) is a system of wireless mobile nodes
dynamically self organizing in arbitrary and temporary network topologies.
People and vehicles can thus be internetworked in areas without a
pre-existing communication infrastructure, or when the use of such
infrastructure requires wireless extension. Therefore, such networks are
designed to operate in widely varying environments, from military networks
(with hundreds of nodes) to low-power sensor networks and other embedded
systems. Dynamic topologies, Bandwidth constraints, Energy-constrained
operations, Wireless vulnerabilities, and limited physical security are
among the characteristics that differentiate Mobile ad hoc networks from
fixed multihop networks.

This symposium aims at providing a forum for sharing ideas among
researchers and practitioners working on state-of-the-art solutions to the
challenges above. We are seeking papers that describe original and
unpublished contributions addressing various aspects of ad hoc, sensor and
mesh networks.

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:

Prospective authors are invited to submit original technical papers by the
deadline 15 March 2009 for publication in the IEEE GLOBECOM 2009
Conference Proceedings and for oral or poster presentation(s).

All submissions should be written in English with a maximum paper length
of six (6) printed pages (10-point font) including figures, without
incurring additional page charges (maximum 2 additional pages, with
overlength page fee). Standard IEEE Transactions templates for Microsoft
Word or LaTeX formats found at
http://www.ieee.org/portal/pages/pubs/transactions/stylesheets.html.

Alternatively you can follow the sample instructions in template.pdf at
http://www.comsoc.org/confs/globecom/2008/downloads/template.pdf
Only PDF files will be accepted for the review process and all
submissions must be done through EDAS at http://edas.info/
