Workshop on Ad-Hoc Wireless Networks (WAHOC'10)
Wisła, Poland, October 18-20, 2010
The extent to which wireless networking has succeeded as a practicable approach to telecommunication depends on the class of applications and the underlying technology. On one end of the "success spectrum" we have cellular telephony with its avalanche of existing and forthcoming services. On the other end, there are various (so far mostly hypothetical) applications and embodiments of ad-hoc networking, usually connotated with wireless sensing, which, despite enormous attention of the academic community, find it difficult to materialize in the real world. Our workshop will focus on practical aspects of wireless telecommunication, with stress on mobility, survivability, resilience, quality of service, and security. Its leitmotif will be an identification of the problems hampering progress in the "practically challenged" areas of wireless networking. Case studies, especially ones illustrating unorthodox solutions adopted in the context of specific practical applications are particularly encouraged. The non-exclusive list of topics includes:
- performance studies and comparisons
- network protocols
- cross-layered protocol design
- design and programming methodologies for network protocols and applications
- wireless sensor networks
- virtual execution platforms
- simulation and modeling methodologies
- security and reliability in wireless networks
- traffic patterns, including multimedia traffic
- multimodal networks
- satellite networks
- high-altitude platform networks
