Call for Papers A_SWAN 2005

AlgorithmS for Wireless And mobile Networks
Personal, Sensor, Ad-hoc, Cellular

Held in conjunction with
Mobiquitous San Diego 2005
July 17, 2005

GENERAL CHAIR:
Alan A. Bertossi, University of Bologna, Italy

PROGRAM CO-CHAIRS:
Stephan Olariu, Old Dominion University, U.S.A.
Cristina M. Pinotti, University of Perugia, Italy

SCOPE:
The rapid and continued growth of wireless technology
made information accessible anywhere and at any time.
At the same time the falling cost of both communication and
mobile computing devices has created a great demand for
untethered communication and computing. In addition to
wireless networks that rely on pre-existing infrastructure,
where wireless communications take place only between the
end-nodes and the access points, rapidly-deployable
self-organizing mobile networks including ad hoc wireless
networks and sensor networks are being developed and deployed.

To cope with the rapidly increasing number of users and
with the increasing demand for mobile services, it is becoming
imperious to optimize the management and use of the limited
resources inherent to wireless environments.

In turn, these specific demands require new "algorithmic"
approaches specifically designed to cope with the highly
dynamic underlying infrastructure and with the scarce resources
available. Old, heavy-duty algorithmic solutions simply do not work!
And, oftentimes, Big-O is not the "best" solution -- one
needs to be "closer" to reality.

The main goal of A_SWAN'2005 is to bring together in a setting
conducive of cross-fertilization a number of researchers and
contributions that demonstrate the use of the new algorithmics in the
context of the following set of representative topics:

o intrusion detection
o consensus in sensor networks
o unauthorized traversal and monitoring in sensor networks
o power management
o topology control
o routing
o content delivery networks
o optimal pricing strategies
o algorithmic mechanism design
o range assignment
o station/sensor placement
o resource management
o bandwidth allocation
o resource discovery
o handoff management
o location tracking and paging
o scheduling
o data organization and access
o security and fault tolerance
