ICCCN 2014 –Track on Wireless LAN, Ad Hoc and Mesh Networks (WAM)
Wireless networks have crossed the chasm. Popular technologies such the IEEE 802.11 were the catalyst for the widespread use of wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). Nomadic computing, home networks, and Wi-Fi services are now common place. The transition to multi-hop wireless networks has seemed natural for quite some time now, but has yet to happen. Nonetheless, wireless networks have become important to a range of applications and systems.
Numerous research efforts contributed systems and protocols for that purpose and lead to new, lower cost equipment, products, and services. At the same time, impromptu and on-demand formation of networks, often ephemeral, volatile, or highly mobile, got increased attention in the community, resulting in a large volume of novel schemes to basically revise networking.
The increasing capabilities and the proliferation of wireless devices, and the increasing needs of their users raise new technical challenges. To address those, both theoretical and systems approaches are invaluable. In this track, we invite submissions of works with novel contributions of either type. We are primarily interested in submissions of papers concerned with:
- Wireless local area networks
- Wireless mesh networks
- Mobile ad hoc networks
- Vehicular ad hoc networks
- Opportunistic and delay tolerant networks
Track Topics
- Algorithms and fundamental limits
- Protocols for medium access control, route discovery, data transmission, transport, synchronization, localization, etc.
- Modeling and performance evaluation
- Experimentation, measurements, and test-beds
- Applications, software, and tools
- Cross-layer design and enhancements
- Security and privacy
- Architectures, including the integration of wireless ad hoc and infrastructure networks
- Deployment challenges, methods, and experiences
- User-centric systems, including mobile social networks
- Mobile platforms, such as smartphones
- Energy efficient design
- Quality of Services provisioning in WLAN, ad hoc and mesh networks
- Multi-hop wireless communications and ad hoc networking
- Multi-radio and multi-channel wireless mesh networking
- Topology construction and maintenance in Wireless LAN, ad hoc and mesh networks
- Novel applications of Wireless LAN, ad hoc and mesh networks
