The ACIS International Workshop on Self-Assembling Wireless Networks (SAWN) aims at bringing together industry practitioners and researchers working on all aspects of the emerging self-assembling wireless networks, including, but not limited to:
- Modeling and optimization of heterogeneous self-assembling wireless networks
- Authentication, privacy, and security
- Dynamic networks and dynamic graph algorithms
- Dynamic frequency and channel assignment
- Multi-hop routing in heterogeneous ad hoc and sensor networks
- Multi-path forwarding for fault tolerance
- Wireless multicasting
- Performance of end-to-end protocols over wireless networks
- Data aggregation and management
- Caching and prefetching for information access in wireless networks
- Mechanisms design and cooperation enforcement
- Synchronization and scheduling issues in ad hoc wireless networks
- Resource management in mobile, wireless and ad hoc networks
- Energy saving protocols for ad hoc and sensor wireless networks
- Monitoring management in sensor networks
- Mobility and location management
- Algorithms for multimedia QoS and traffic management
The workshop will be held in conjunction with the 6th ACIS International Conference on Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, Networking, and Parallel/Distributed Computing (SNPD 2005). Authors are invited to to submit unpublished research manuscripts of maximum 15 double-spaced pages in length
(8 single-space pages in 2-column format for the final camera-ready papers).
Tutorial proposals are also welcomed, and should be directed to the workshop organizers. Manuscript submissions should to be made online through the official SNPD2005 conference website (http://triton.towson.edu/snpd2005).
Please indicate on your submission that the paper is specifically for the SAWN workshop. Accepted papers will appear in the SNPD2005 proceedings, to be published by IEEE. It is anticipated that a special issue of a major international journal will be devoted to the best workshop papers.
