CALL FOR PAPERS

For the reliable performance evaluation of wireless networks, realistic models
and credible simulation scenarios are crucial. Recently, in the area of wireless
networks, it has been shown that simplistic models for mobility, traffic, and
signal propagation yield results that are too optimistic. In order to provide
more credible models, traces from specific scenarios need to be acquired and
then realistic scenario models need to be developed and validated. We solicit
papers on mobility, traffic, propagation, and scenario modelling for various
wireless networks including MANETs, DTNs and vehicular networks. Papers on trace
measurement architectures and trace characterizations of wireless networks are
also welcome.

The main purpose of this workshop is to promote further research interests and
activities on scenario modelling of wireless networks. It is also aimed at
increasing the synergy between academic and industrial researchers working in
this area. We are interested in experimental, systems-related, theoretical, and
work-in-progress papers in all aspects of wireless network scenarios.

The topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
* Classification of scenarios
* Challenges in trace acquisition
* Tools for mobility, traffic and propagation modelling
* Methods in localization and tracking to acquire accurate movement traces
* Movement trace measurement architectures
* Characterization of movement traces
* Mobility modelling
* Validation of mobility models
* Traffic measurement, traffic characterization, traffic modelling
* Combined mobility and traffic modelling
* Characterization of signal propagation
* Propagation modelling
* Impact of mobility on radio characterization
* Impact of scenario modelling on performance

Authors are invited to submit full papers and work-in-progress papers for
presentation at the workshop. Papers (no more than 6 camera-ready pages in IEEE
conference proceedings format) should describe original, previously unpublished
work, not currently under review by another conference, workshop, or journal.
All submissions will be handled via EDAS: http://edas.info/N9078
For detailed submission instructions, together with format files, see the MASS
2010 website: https://mass2010.soe.ucsc.edu/
All accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of the main conference.
The papers will be available at IEEE Xplore as well. Furthermore, it is planned
to invite selected papers for a special issue in a journal.

IMPORTANT DATES:
Paper submission deadline: July 2, 2010
Notification of acceptance: Aug. 13, 2010
Camera-ready paper due: Sep. 3, 2010
