			    Med-Hoc-Net 2004

	The Third Annual Mediterranean Ad Hoc Networking Workshop

		  June 27-30, 2004, Bodrum, Turkey

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

Scope:

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. Therefore, ad hoc networks attract growing
attention from the research community. 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.

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 the Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks Journal.

Manuscripts must be formatted according to the IEEE double-column standard
format, except the font size, which must be 11pt. Authors should use only
standard fonts, i.e., Times Roman, Courier, Symbol, and Helvetica, or
their equivalent. The maximum length of the manuscript is 12 pages.
