[Tccc] [CFP] The 9th International Conference on Ad Hoc Networks and Wireless (ADHOC-NOW 2010), August 20th – 22nd 2010, Edmonton, Canada

CALL FOR PAPERS

The 9th International Conference on Ad Hoc Networks and Wireless
(ADHOC-NOW 2010)

August 20th – 22nd 2010, Edmonton, Canada
http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/adhocnow10

Since its creation in 2002, ADHOC-NOW has become a well-established and
well-known international conference

dedicated to wireless and mobile computing. It serves as a forum for
interesting discussions on ongoing research

and new contributions. The conference addresses both experimental and
theoretical research in the areas of ad hoc

networks, sensor networks, mesh networks and vehicular networks. It
focuses on all issues from link layer up to

the application layer. Following previous ADHOC-NOW conferences in
Murcia, Spain (2009), Sophia Antipolis,

France (2008), Morelia, Mexico (2007), Ottawa, Canada (2006), Cancun,
Mexico (2005), Vancouver, Canada (2004),

Montreal, Canada (2003), and Toronto, Canada (2002), the ninth ADHOC-NOW
conference will take place in Edmonton,

Canada, from August the 20th to August the 22nd, 2010.

SCOPE: We seek original contributions as work in progress, experimental
and theoretical research in Wireless

All papers will be reviewed for technical merit. Each accepted paper
will be published in the conference

proceedings as a volume of Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS),
provided at least one author of the paper

registers to present the paper at the conference.

PANELS & DEMONSTRATIONS: Proposals for panels and system demonstrations
are also solicited. Proposals should be

sent to the Program Co-Chairs in PDF format by May 3rd, 2010. Proposals
should not exceed 3 pages in LNCS format.

In the case of panel proposals, they should include a description of
theme and the names of the panelists. In the

case of demo proposals, they should include the equipment to be used and
any other relevant requirements. Please

include contact information (postal address, email address, phone and
fax numbers) in the submission. Accepted

proposals for system demonstrations and panels will be allotted three
pages in the proceedings, provided at least

one author registers to present the demo/panel at the conference.
