International Workshop on Device-to-Device (D2D) Communication With and Without
Infrastructure:
http://d2dgc13.prosjekt.uia.no/
Collocated with IEEE GLOBECOM 2013, 9-13 December 2013, Atlanta, USA
Device-to-Device (D2D) communication has gained increasing popularity very
recently, not only among researchers in academia and industries but also among
standardization bodies. D2D communication enables two or more mobile devices in
proximity of each other to establish direct local links, either in an
autonomous manner to form an ad hoc network or coordinated by a base station to
perform direct data transfer. The benefits of D2D communication include
ubiquitous computing and communication, traffic offload from cellular networks,
improved energy efficiency and coverage extension, peer-to-peer communication
supporting social networks etc.
However, there are many issues to be addressed before the concept of D2D
communication can be implemented and commercialized. These problems include for
example how to find device proximity, how to manage interference and how to
control link quality, how to achieve energy efficiency for neighbor discovery
and multi-hop communication establishment, etc. The main objective of this
workshop is to bring together the state-of-the-art results in the field of D2D
communication, including both cellular-coordinated approaches and distributed
ad hoc networking solutions, and to share knowledge to trigger D2D
communication from concept to reality. The topics to be addressed by this
workshop include both physical layer and networking issues as well as envisaged
services and applications.
Topics of interest cover all aspects related to D2D communication with and
without infrastructure, including results for both cellular-coordinated
approaches and distributed ad hoc networking solutions from academia,
industries as well as standardization bodies. In particular, this workshop
solicits contributions on the following (but not limited to) topics:
- Frequency reuse and spectrum sharing for D2D communication
- Energy-harvesting aware protocols for D2D communication
- Power and interference management
- Resource allocation and optimization for D2D communication in cellular
networks
- Neighbor discovery and link maintenance
- Cognitive and cooperative D2D communication
- MAC mechanisms for distributed and central-controlled D2D networks
- Routing protocols for multi-hop D2D networks
- Device-initiated versus BS-coordinated link establishment
- WiFi Direct based implementations and applications
- LTE Direct based implementations and applications
- Programs and apps for D2D communication based on smartphones
- Business models for D2D communication
Important Dates
- Paper submission: 25 June 2013
- Acceptance notification: 1 September 2013
- Camera-ready: 1 October 2013
- Workshop date: 9 (or 13) December 2013
Submission Guidelines
Authors are invited to submit original contributions that were not previously
published or currently under review by any other workshop, conference, or
journal. Papers need to be uploaded to the EDAS GLOBECOM 2013 workshop
submission link (https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=14925), and should follow the
GLOBECOM 2013 paper submission guidelines.
All submissions should be written in English with a maximum paper length of Six
(6) printed pages (10-point font) including figures (maximum 1 additional page
is allowed with over-length page charge of USD100 if accepted). All accepted
papers will be published in IEEE Xplore together with IEEE GLOBECOM 2013
proceedings. IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after
the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if it is not presented at the
conference.
