CALL FOR PAPERS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Workshop on Challenges on Ad Hoc and Ubiquitous Computing (CAUC'10)
Will be held in Conjunction with The First International Conference on Network and Computing (ICNC'10)
Hiroshima, Japan – November 17-19, 2010
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The number of devices empowered with wireless communication capabilities has experienced an expressive growth over recent years. There is an increasing interest in using such devices to support applications and services in a wireless setting. However, there are many challenges in interconnecting wireless devices in a robust, efficient, and decentralized manner. Challenges that need to be addressed include fast adaptation to changes in operating conditions, fault-tolerance, scalability, QoS assurance, mobility management, resource sharing and security. With this in mind, the Workshop on Ad-hoc Wireless Communications solicits papers presenting original and unpublished work on the following topics:
Application and Services
Topology Control
Energy and Power Control and Management
Mobility Prediction, Location Tracking, and Location Based Services
Routing (Unicast, Broadcast, Multicast, Geocast) protocols
Challenges in Transport Protocols
Resource Allocation and Spectrum Sharing Techniques
Medium Access Control
Radio Link Protocols
Scalability, Availability, Link Quality, Robustness, Quality of Service, and Fault-tolerance
Cross-layer design and optimization
Heterogeneity and Interconnection with Internet/LANs/MANs/WPANs
Performance Evaluation, Simulations, and Theoretical studies
Security and Privacy
Trust, Reputation and Collaborative ad hoc networks
Interoperability and Standardization Evolution
Testbeds and Experimentation Platforms
Context-aware Services and Protocols

This Workshop will be held in Conjunction with The First International Conference on Networking and Computing (ICNC'10)
