CALL FOR PAPERS

 

[Scope]

 

Ad hoc networks, which cover a variety of network paradigms for specific
purposes, such as mobile ad hoc networks, sensor networks, vehicular
networks,underwater networks, underground networks, personal area networks,
and home networks, promise a broad range of applications in civilian,
commercial, and military areas. The aim of the annual International
Conference on Ad Hoc Networks (AdHocNets) is to provide a forum that brings
together researchers from academia as well as practitioners from industry to
meet and exchange ideas and recent research work on all aspects of ad hoc
networks. Following the success of AdHocNets'9, AdHocNets'10, and
AdHocNets'11, the fourth edition of the event, AdHocNets'12, will be held in
Paris, France, on Oct. 15-17, 2012. The conference will consist of keynote
talks, technical sessions, and workshops. The technical sessions will
present original and fundamental research advances while the workshops will
focus on development and application issues in this hot field.
