We are editing a NEW book entitled "Routing in Opportunistic Networks",to
be published by Springer Verlag, USA, in early 2013.
This book will attempt to provide a comprehensive guide on the fundamental
concepts, applications, new trends and challenges, and research results in
the area of "routing in opportunistic networks".
As you have done considerable high quality work in related areas, we
kindly request that you look at the list of suggested topics provided
below and if interested, contribute some chapters in this book on topics
of your interest.
If you are willing to contribute, please send us your chosen topic(s)
along with short abstract(s) -(100-150 words for each chosen topic). We
will then let you know the topic(s) which would be beneficial to us.
We ask that, rather than writing on a narrowly focused research result,
your chapter(s) discuss a topic broadly and the different concepts and
solutions surrounding it. While all types of contributions will be
considered for review, good survey and tutorial/review type articles on a
particular topic within the provided list of topics will be of particular
interest.
If accepted, each Chapter is expected to have about 33-37 pages maximum
(including references, tables & figures) in MS Word or LaTex with about
450 words/page; font 10.
Moreover, each chapter should be accompanied by a set of Power Point
slides; 30 slides or so per chapter.
If you are willing to participate in this project, please reply to me at
the email address iwoungan at scs.ryerson.ca <mailto:iwoungan at scs.ryerson.ca>
by confirming your chosen topic(s) along with associated abstract(s), no
later than _October 15th, 2011_
