Call for Demos

Real experimentation has proven to be a fundamental methodology to evaluate mobile ad hoc and sensor systems. Furthermore, early prototyping is an outstanding way to understand real user requirements and help adoption of wireless ad hoc technologies by the mass market. In this view, IEEE MASS solicits demonstrations of mobile ad hoc and sensor systems showing real-systems prototypes at work, thus stimulating discussions among the attendees. Demonstrations from both academia and industry are welcome at most.

******* HIGHLIGHTS ********
*
* - Authors of all accepted demos will be invited to provide a
* SHORT DEMO PAPER (3 pages) describing the demo features.
* Short demo papers will be included in the MASS proceedings.
*
* - MASS 2007 will grant a "Best Demo Award" based upon both
* the technical and innovation contribution.
*
***************************

Demo proposals must be limited to 3 pages (IEEE conference template, font size no less than 10pt), describing the demo research framework, and what will be shown during the MASS demo session. The proposal must also include all the technical requirements for the demo. Demo proposals must be submitted as a SINGLE PDF FILE via e-mail to the demo chairs (mass07demo@iit.cnr.it).

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Provisioning of wireless QoS in terms of bandwidth and delay assurance
• Routing protocols (unicast, multicast, broadcast, geocast) and metrics
• Data transport in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks
• Power-aware and energy-efficient design
• Topology construction and coverage maintenance
• Cross layer design and optimization
• Incentives and game theoretic approaches in wireless ad-hoc networks
• Localization and synchronization in wireless sensor networks
• Data gathering, fusion, and dissemination in wireless sensor network
• Operating system and middleware support
• Mesh networking
• Delay tolerant networks and opportunistic networking
• Handoff, mobility management and seamless internetworking
• Peer-to-peer, overlay, and content distribution wireless ad hoc networks
• Reliability, security, and trustworthiness issues in ad hoc and sensor networks
