CFP: EURASIP JWCN SI on Theoretical and Algorithmic Foundations of Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks

EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking, Special Issue on
Theoretical and Algorithmic Foundations of Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor
Networks

http://www.hindawi.com/journals/wcn/si/tfwn.html

This special issue is devoted to distributed algorithms and theoretical
methods in the context of wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. Recent
research in mobile ad hoc networks and wireless sensor networks raises a
number of interesting,  and difficult, theoretical and algorithmic issues.
While much work has been done in protocol and system design, simulation, and
experimental study for wireless ad hoc and sensor networks, the theoretical
research, however, falls short of the expectation of the future networking
deployment. The needs to push the theoretical research forward for a deeper
understanding about wireless ad hoc and sensor networking and to foster
cooperation among networking researchers and theoreticians establish the
motivation behind this special issue.

The objective of this special issue is to gather recent advances in the
areas of wireless ad hoc and sensor networks, with a focus on theoretical
and algorithmic aspect. In particular, it will concentrate on distributed
algorithms, randomized algorithms, analysis and modeling, optimizations, and
theoretical methods in design and analysis of networking protocol (at link
layer or network layer) for wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. Specific
topics for this special issue dedicated to theoretical and algorithmic
foundations include but are not limited to:

* Channel assignment and management

* Distributed and localized algorithms

* Dynamic and random networks

* Dynamic graph algorithms

* Energy conservation methods

* Localization and location tracking

* Mechanism design and game theory

* Modeling and complexity analysis

* Routing, multicast, and broadcast

* Scheduling and synchronization

* Throughput optimization and capacity

Before submission, authors should carefully read over the journal's Author
Guidelines, which are located at
http://www.hindawi.com/journals/wcn/guidelines.html. Prospective authors
should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the
journal Manuscript Tracking System at http://mts.hindawi.com/, according to
the following timetable:

[Tccc] IEEE Network Special Issue on "Advances in Vehicular Communications Networks"]

IEEE Network Special Issue on
"Advances in Vehicular Communications Networks"

Background
Vehicular communications are being applied to improve safety, decrease
fuel consumption, and increase the capacity of existing roadways. Both
vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications are used
to implement a number of promising applications such as local hazard
warning, efficient route planning and coordination of traffic flows.
Even truly cooperative and, therefore, extremely challenging
applications like cross traffic collision avoidance are being
considered.

In the last years a number of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS)
related projects and initiatives have been carried out (or will be
completed soon). In Europe, for example, the European Commission
initiated the eSafety Program to reduce the road fatalities by 50%
before 2010 and to improve traffic efficiency. These R&D projects have
created a solid technical basis for vehicular communications, and some
of them have also performed some preliminary experiences, from what some
important results have been obtained ("lessons learned"), as for example
the Vehicle Infrastructure Integration (VII) in the US as well as
several projects in Europe.

All the aforementioned research efforts and initiatives can be
considered as the 'phase 1' in the development of vehicular
communications networks. This phase represents an initial and very
important step towards the goals of improving road safety and traffic
efficiency, and providing Internet services to the vehicles. Important
achievements, architectural decisions and conclusions have been the
outcome of this 'phase 1', such as the development of wireless physical
and MAC protocols suited for the vehicular environment (e.g. IEEE
802.11p), new network architectures (some of them not based on classical
TCP/IP), etc.

We are now witnessing the 'phase 2' of research and development in
vehicular communications networks, a new phase in which standardization
and field trials will play a key role, as well as the refinement and
extension of the network architectures and protocols defined in the
'phase 1'.

Scope and Contributions
The goal of this special issue is to share the research developments and
efforts of this new phase ('phase 2') in the vehicular communications
area. Paper submissions are invited on the following topics:

* Overview of state-of-the-art for vehicular communication
technologies and open challenges.
* Network protocols for cooperative vehicular communications, such as
geonetworking (geographical routing and addressing).
* Networking aspects for use of 2G/3G cellular systems for vehicular
communications.
* New system architectures enabling the provision of safety, traffic
efficiency and infotainment services in vehicular scenarios.
* Security, location privacy and reliability issues.
* Integration of IP protocols into the vehicular scenario.
* Standardization for vehicular communications worldwide,
interoperability and harmonization issues.
* Field operational tests (FOTs) for cooperative systems employing
vehicular communications networks.
* Regulatory aspects.

Submission
Articles should be tutorial in nature and should be written in a style
comprehensible to readers outside the speciality of the article.
Prospective authors must prepare their article in accordance with the
IEEE Network guidelines to authors, see
http://www.comsoc.org/livepubs/ni/info/authors.html. Authors should
submit their manuscript to the guest editors according to the schedule
below (authors are encouraged to notify at least 15 days before
deadline, their intention to submit a paper indicating title, abstract,
authors and keywords).

All submissions will be reviewed based on technical merit and
relevance.

International TPC and will appear in the conference proceedings.
However, the selection criteria for Industry Session papers are slightly
different. In particular, papers should describe applications,
prototypes or experiences of clear industry relevance. Papers with
narrow algorithmic focus or only high-level design details are
discouraged. A key goal of this session is to present systems-oriented
research that exposes the academic and research communities to real-life
issues and problems being faced in industry. Accordingly, papers will be
evaluated, less on the novelty of specific algorithmic content, but by
the originality and general applicability of insights that can be
inferred from the authors' implementation experience.

Papers must be formatted according to the guidelines given in
http://www.ics.forth.gr/wowmom09/papersubmission.html and submitted by
the authors to BOTH the Industry Chairs by midnight US Pacific Time of
15 March 2009.
