  • Cross-layer design and optimization methods
  • Energy-efficient transport, network, and MAC protocols
  • Event detection, classification and tracking
  • Fault-tolerance, self-healing, and reliability
  • Group and cooperative communications
  • Location discovery and time synchronization techniques
  • Measurements and practical experiences from prototypes and testbeds
  • Mobility support and management
  • Multicasting, geocasting, and broadcasting
  • Network coverage and connectivity
  • Network scaling and limits
  • Quality of Service issues
  • Query processing and data aggregation
  • Performance modelling and analysis
  • Resource management algorithms
  • Topology discovery, management and self-organization
  • Trust, security, privacy and appropriate cryptographic protocols

Submission Guidelines

 

For this symposium, we are soliciting original papers describing state-of-the-art research and development in the areas of wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. The symposium will only accept for review the original contributions that have not been previously published and are not currently under review by any other conference or journal.  

All papers are limited to six printed pages, including text, figures and references, and must be written in English and follow the standard IEEE double-column format. The font size must be at least 10 points. All submissions will be handled electronically and must be in PDF format.

All submitted papers would be judged based on their quality through a double peer-reviewing process. Accepted papers will be published in the Conference Proceedings of IWCMC'06. Further instructions on paper submission and formatting are available on the conference webpage ( http://www.iwcmc2006.cs.wmich.edu ).
