[Tccc] [ACM/SIGMOBILE MobiOpp 2010]: Deadline approaching: 2 days left

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CALL FOR PAPERS

The Second ACM International Workshop on Mobile Opportunistic Networking
MobiOpp 2010

February 22-23, 2010, Pisa, Italy
http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/mobiopp2010


sponsored by ACM/SIGMOBILE


******** Paper submission deadline extended to November 11 *********

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Opportunistic Networking is one of the emerging communication paradigms in
wireless mobile communications.
Opportunistic networks are commonly defined as a type of challenged networks
where communication opportunities are based on sporadic and intermittent
contacts, disconnections and re-connections may frequently occur, and the
assumption on the existence of an end-to-end path between the source and the
destination is released.
As compared to the legacy MANETs, where an always-connected
infrastructure-less
network is assumed, opportunistic networks are much closer to real pervasive
networking scenarios, where devices (with sensing capabilities) are carried
while users move, and can connect and disconnect continuously relying their
communication chances on a store-carry-and-forward approach. The aim of
MobiOpp
2010 is to bring together researchers working in this emerging area,
thus also
providing a reference event for those working on self-organizing
wireless mobile
networks which usually exploit the opportunistic communication paradigm.
In this
workshop we aim to explore novel research issues related to all aspects of
opportunistic networks.

Original contributions are solicited, being related to systems and protocols
design, development and analysis, in all areas of Opportunistic Networking.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Novel architectures
* Routing protocols
* Transport and reliability issues in opportunistic networks
* Resource management techniques
* Dissemination and replication techniques
* Opportunistic networking in P2P systems
* Social-aware opportunisitc networking
* Middleware services in opportunistic networks
* Opportunistic networking applications
* Opportunistic networking in wireless sensor networks
* Multimodal urban sensing
* Security issues in opportunistic networks
* Trust and cooperation in opportunistic networks
* Mobility models for opportunistic networks
* Tools and techniques for designing, analyzing and building
opportunistic networks
* Opportunistic networks testbeds and measurements
* Opportunistic networks performance modeling

The workshop proceedings will be published by ACM. Extended versions of
workshop
selected papers will be considered for possible fast track publication
in the
Computer Communications Journal (Elsevier)
