Scope
The goal of this conference is to bring together researchers, 
technologists and visionaries from academia, research labs, and 
industry, engineers and students to exchange, discuss and share their 
experiences, new ideas and research about theoretical and practical 
aspects of ad-hoc networking. The conference will include presentations 
of theoretical and experimental achievements, innovative ad-hoc systems, 
prototyping efforts, case studies, and advancements in technology 
directly affecting ad-hoc networking and communications infrastructures.

Topics

* Implementations, testbeds, and prototypes
* Performance evaluation of ad-hoc network protocols through
simulations, analysis, and measurements
* Metrology, ad-hoc network measurement tools
* MAC protocols, scheduling, and radio resource sharing in ad hoc
networks
* Power management and control
* Topology control
* Self-organization and network reconfiguration
* Unicast and multicast routing algorithms and protocols
* Energy-efficient communications in ad-hoc networks
* Transport layer protocols for multi-hop networks
* Resource discovery and management
* Protocols for QoS support in ad-hoc networks
* Call admission and traffic shaping policies for ad-hoc networks
* Multimedia location services
* Security in ad-hoc networks
* Fault tolerance and error recovery
* Algorithmic challenges in ad-hoc networks
* Large scale ad-hoc networks
* Interconnection between ad hoc and wired networks
* Sensor networks: applications and protocols
* Ambient intelligence
