CALL FOR PAPERS FOR ROUTING IN WIRELESS AND INTERNET NETWORKS

 

Part of the The Software Technology Track

 

Thirty-sixth Annual HAWAI'I INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SYSTEM SCIENCES

 

January 6 - 9, 2003

Hilton Waikoloa Village on the Big Island of Hawaii

 

The efficiency of message routing is critical to the performance of computer and communication networks. The routing process involves moving data between the various hosts of a given network. When such a process involves more than one source and/or one destination, it is commonly referred to as a collective communication process. The complexity of routing is further complicated by host mobility in wireless networks (cellular, satellite and/or ad-hoc). It is clear that the conventional routing algorithms are not suitable in networks whose topology is dynamic, especially when real-time traffic has to be supported. The goal of minitrack is to put together some of recent results on fault-tolerant routing in networks. Researchers and practitioners working in this area have an opportunity to discuss and expression their views on the current trends, challenges, and state-of-art solutions to design routing protocol in wireless and Internet Networks. Topics of interest include but are note limited to:

o
Reliable routing (point-to-point, multicasting and broadcasting)
o
Network topologies and hardware support for efficient routing
o
Support for collective communication
o
Communication subsystems
o
Wireless Internet
o
Routing in the Internet
o
Routing in cellular and ad-hoc wireless networks
o
Intra-cluster and in-cluster routing
o
Performance evaluation and benchmarking
o
Randomized routing protocols in communication networks
o
Location-aware routing
o
Energy-aware routing
o
Location updates for efficient routing
o
Location management in cellular networks
o
Connection rerouting in cellular networks

INSTRUCTIONS FOR PAPER SUBMISSION

1. Contact the Minitrack Chair in advance for specific submission instructions. Otherwise, submit six (6) copies of the full paper, consisting of 22-26 double- spaced pages, including diagrams, directly to the appropriate Minitrack Chair. (NOTE: The final paper will be 10 pages, double-column, single-spaced.)

2. Do not submit the manuscript to more than one Minitrack Chair. Papers should contain original material and not be previously published, or currently submitted for consideration elsewhere.

3. Each paper must have a title page to include title of the paper, full name of all authors, and complete addresses including affiliation(s), telephone number(s), and e-mail address(es).

4. The first page of the manuscript should include only the title and a 300-word abstract of the paper.
