[Tccc] WUWNet'10: The Fifth ACM International Workshop on UnderWater Networks

WUWNet'10
> The Fifth ACM International Workshop on UnderWater Networks
>
> http://wuwnet.org/
>
> September 30 - October 1, 2010
>
> Woods Hole, Massachusetts, USA
>
>
> CALL FOR PAPERS
>
> Water systems are of vital importance to life on earth and
> commerce, and WUWNet is the premier venue for early work
> bringing real-time, in-situ sensing and actuation to this
> aquatic world.
>
> The workshop will span one and a half days, including
> presentations of technical papers, a keynote talk, and a
> poster/demo session.
>
> The scope of the WUWNet workshop covers a broad range of
> research directions related to underwater systems, including
> communications, networking, system integration, and vehicle
> coordination. Specific topics of interest include, but are
> not limited to:
>
> - Underwater network architectures
> - Efficient underwater communications, with techniques from
> physical layer to application
> - Cooperative underwater communications, including, PHY,
> MAC, routing, and data transfer
> - Services for underwater systems, such as localization,
> time synchronization, reliable data transfer, security
> - Subsea communication for underwater vehicles (gliders,
> submersibles, etc.)
> - Coordination algorithms for underwater vehicles and
> sensor nodes, or human operator interaction
> - Modeling, simulation, and testbeds for underwater systems
> - Applications that broadly address subsea networks,
> including coordinated vehicle systems
> - Experimental results from underwater networking trials
> - Application requirements for underwater networks presensed
> by end users
>
> SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:
>
> Submissions for technical papers must describe original
> research, not published or currently under review for other
> workshops, conferences, or journals.
>
> All papers will be reviewed by the program committee for
> novelty and contribution. The workshop accepts two types of
> papers: full and short. Short papers can present new ideas
> or new visions that may influence the direction of future
> research, yet they may be less mature than full papers.
> While an exhaustive evaluation of the proposed ideas is not
> necessary, insight and in-depth understanding of the issues
> is expected. Full papers should be more complete in their
> evaluation and the maturity of the system and ideas. All
> accepted papers, long and short, will be published in the
> workshop proceedings.
>
> Paper submission will be handled electronically. Authors
> should prepare a PDF version of their papers. The page limit
> for full papers is 8 pages, and that for short papers is 4
> pages in standard ACM conference format. Please see the
> workshop website for definitive formatting guidelines and
> sample templates.
>
> A call for work-in-progress posters and demos will be
> announced separately.
>
> IMPORTANT DATES:
>
> Paper registration: May 7, 2010
> Paper submission: May 14, 2010, 11:59 p.m. PST(US West Coast)
> Acceptance notification: July 16, 2010
> Camera-ready date: August 6, 2010
> Workshop date: September 30 - October 1, 2010
>
> Please note that the paper submission deadline is firm. No
> extensions will be granted.
