Call for papers for
The Tenth Workshop on Wireless Ad hoc and Sensor Networks WWASN2013
A full day workshop held in conjunction with the ICDCS 2013
The 33rd International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems
July 08 -11, 2013 in Philadelphia, PA
This workshop covers the area of ad hoc networking, from physical
issues up to application aspects. In particular, it will cover
physical, data link, network and transport layers, as well as
applications, security, simulation and power management issues in
sensor, local area, personal, and mobile ad hoc networks. It is the
goal of this workshop to review ad hoc protocols and models and to
reflect the latest in the state of the art in ad hoc networks. It
seeks to provide up to date information on research and development
activities in the rapidly growing area of ad hoc networks. The
workshop will also address the rapidly growing field of sensor
networks, including (but not limited to) the issues related to their
topology, routing, performance, data gathering and filtering, energy
efficiency, and mobility.
The submitted articles will be carefully reviewed for quality and
relevance. Each article will be reviewed by experts of the same topic.
In the selection process, a comprehensive coverage will be sought,
covering the most important topics such as (but not limited to):
Applications and history of ad hoc networks
Self-organization and self-management of ad hoc networks
Physical layer of ad hoc networks
Pervasive and wearable computing
Medium access control for ad hoc and sensor networks
Methods and tools for large scale ad hoc networks simulation
Analytical, mobility and validation models for ad hoc networks
Hybrid networks and wireless internet
Security in ad hoc networks
Trust establishment and assessment in ad hoc networks
Data management issues, query processing, and data delivery
Routing, broadcasting and multicasting in ad hoc networks
Energy-efficient protocols for ad hoc networks
Quality of service in medium access control and routing
Topology construction, discovery and maintenance in ad hoc networks
Selected best papers will be invited for publication in a special
issue of Ad Hoc & Sensor Wireless Networks journal.
Submission details
Papers should be submitted via email to workshop co-chairs. Papers
should be submitted as PDF files, using the IEEE Computer Society
proceedings or equivalent format (two column, 10 point, single-spaced,
US Letter, no margin smaller than one inch). Include an abstract, five
to ten keywords, technical area(s) most relevant to your paper, and
the corresponding author's e-mail address. Number each page in the
manuscript. Page limit for workshops is 6 pages; up to 1 extra page
can be included at a charge of $150.
IMPORTANT: For each accepted paper, authors are required to submit at
least one full registration for the ICDCS2013 conference. Accepted
papers supported by at least one full registration will be published
by IEEE Computer Society Press as part of the proceedings of
ICDCS'2013 workshops.

Workshop Program
History
During ICDCS-2003 (Providence, RI), Ivan Stojmenovic and Jingyuan
Zhang have organized a workshop called MWN (Workshop on Mobile and
Wireless Networks). A total of 60 papers from 17 different countries
had been submitted to the workshop. A total of 32 papers were selected
for presentation. Approximately half of the papers were dealing with
wireless ad hoc networks, which is why subsequent workshops were
focusing specifically on wireless ad hoc networks.
WWAN2004 was held during ICDCS-2004 (Tokyo, Japan); it was organized
by David Simplot-Ryl and Ivan Stojmenovic. In response to the Call for
Papers, 42 papers from 20 different countries had been submitted, 21
of which were selected for presentation at WWAN 2004.
WWAN2005 was held during ICDCS-2005 (Columbus, OH); it was organized
by David Simplot-Ryl and Ivan Stojmenovic. In response to the Call for
Papers, thirty papers from twelve different countries had been
submitted, and twelve best ones have been selected for inclusion in
the workshop.
WWASN2006 was held in conjunction with ICDCS2006 in Lisbon, Portugal,
with 13 papers accepted out of 26 submitted; it added Sensor Networks
as one of its main foci. In addition to the more traditional areas of
routing, topology control, and coverage, the scope of the submissions
has also included issues related to mobility, applications, and
security.
WWASN2007 was held in conjunction with ICDCS2007 in Toronto, ON, with
12 papers accepted out of 33 submissions. It also featured a keynote
speech by Dr. Sharokh Valaee of University of Toronto.
WWASN2008 was held during ICDCS2008 in Beijing, China, with 15 papers
accepted out of 33 submissions.
WWASN2009 was held during ICDCS2009 in Montreal, Canada, in June 2009,
with 17 papers accepted out of 37 submissions.
WWASN2010 was held during ICDCS2010 in Genoa, Italy, with 12 papers
accepted out of 30+ submissions.
WWASN2011 was held during ICDCS2011 in Minneapolis, MN, with 9 papers
accepted from nearly 30 submissions, and a keynote speech by Dr. Tian
He from University of Minnesota.
WWASN2012 was held during ICDCS2012 in Macau, China, with 12 papers
accepted from over 30 submissions, and a keynote speech by Prof.
Weijia Jia from City University of Hong Kong, China.
