* CALL FOR PAPERS *
* *
* The 2010 IEEE Global Communications Conference
(Globecom'2010) *
* Ad Hoc, Sensor, and Mesh Networking Symposium
*
* December 6-10, 2010, Miami, Florida, USA *
* *
*******************************************************************************
Sponsoring Technical Committees:
* Ad Hoc and Sensor Communications and Networks
* Wireless Communications
* Information Infrastructure
Scope and Motivation:
As wireless networks nodes proliferate and as applications using
Internet become familiar to a wider class of customers, those customers
will expect to use networking applications even in situations where the
Internet itself is not available. The basic solution to meet such
requirements is to allow mobile computer users with (compatible)
wireless communication devices to set up a (possibly) short-lived
network just for the communication needs of the moment- in other words,
an ad-hoc network. 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
multi-hop networks.
The field of ad hoc, sensor and mesh networking is reemerging amid
unprecedented growth in the scale and diversity of computer networking.
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) are considered as a key technology for
next-generation wireless networking. Wireless mesh networks often
consist of mesh clients, mesh routers and gateways, where mesh routers
have minimal mobility and form the backbone of WMNs. Mesh clients can be
either stationary or mobile, and can form a client mesh network among
themselves and with mesh routers. The gateway and mesh routers are
utilized to provide the internetworking of WMNs with other networks such
as the Internet, IEEE 802.11, IEEE 802.15, IEEE 802.16, cellular
networks, wireless sensor networks, or combinations of several types of
networks. Because of the many advantages, WMNs are undergoing rapid
development and inspiring numerous deployments. A wireless sensor
network (WSN) is a wireless network consisting of large populations of
spatially distributed sensor nodes to cooperatively monitor physical or
environmental conditions, such as temperature, sound, vibration,
pressure, motion or pollutants, at different locations. A sensor node is
an autonomous device which is capable of computation, communication, and
sensing. Wireless sensor networks have many useful applications such as
hostile environment surveillance, industrial process monitoring,
environment and habitat monitoring, healthcare applications, home
automation, and traffic control.
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.
