                        Med-Hoc-Net 2004
                        ================
   The Third Annual Mediterranean Ad Hoc Networking Workshop

                June 27-30, 2004, Bodrum, Turkey

               http://www.medhoc04.diit.unict.it/

                        Call for Papers
                        ---------------

Ad hoc network applications are emerging continuously imposing their own
stringent constraints which cannot be fulfilled by generic approaches and
thus spur new research efforts. The aim of Med-Hoc-Net 2004 is to serve as
a platform for researchers and visionaries from academia, research labs,
and industry from all over the globe to share their ideas, views, results,
and experiences in the field of ad-hoc networking and communications.
Med-Hoc-Net 2004 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.

After Sardinia (Italy) and Mahdia (Tunisia), this year the workshop will
take place in another beautiful spot on the Mediterranean Sea: Bodrum
(Turkey) where you will find wonderful nature and amazing historical sites
close to hand. Bodrum is easy to reach via frequent flight connections
from Istanbul.

Topics of Interest:
-------------------
The papers solicited in Med-Hoc-Net 2004 cover a variety of topics
including but not limited to:

- Novel ad-hoc network architectures and applications,
- Sensor network applications and protocols,
- Implementations, testbeds, and prototypes,
- Interfacing ad-hoc systems with different networks,
- Resource discovery and management,
- Power management and control,
- Call admission and traffic shaping policies for ad-hoc networks,
- Multimedia location services,
- Self organization and network reconfiguration,
- Protocols for QoS support in ad-hoc networks,
- QoS support in Bluetooth, HIPERLAN, IEEE 802.11, etc.,
- MAC protocols, scheduling, and radio resource sharing in ad hoc
  networks,
- Unicast and multicast routing algorithms and protocols,
- Transport layer protocols for multi-hop networks,
- Congestion control,
- Performance evaluation of ad-hoc network protocols through
  simulations, analysis, and measurements,
- Security in ad-hoc networks,
- Fault tolerance and error recovery
- Signal processing algorithms (coding, compression) for ad-hoc networks

The program committee will referee all papers, and accepted papers will be
published in the conference proceedings. PAPERS OF PARTICULAR MERIT WILL
BE PUBLISHED IN AD HOC NETWORKS (ELSEVIER) JOURNAL.
