ACM VANET 2009
Vehicle to Vehicle -- Vehicle to Roadside -- Vehicle to Internet
The Sixth ACM International Workshop on VehiculAr Inter-NETworking
In conjunction with ACM MobiCom 2009
Date: To be announced
Beijing, China
Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE (approval pending)
http://www.sigmobile.org/workshops/vanet2009/
Important Dates (tentative):
Paper Submission Deadline: April 6th
Notification of Acceptance: June 19th
Camera-Ready Deadline: July 15th
The
goal of this workshop is to present and discuss recent advances in the
development of vehicular inter-networking (VANET) technologies. Based
on short- and medium-range communication as well as on cellular
systems, vehicular inter-networking will enable vehicular safety
applications (including collision and other safety warnings) as well as
non-safety applications (like real-time traffic congestion and routing
information, high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, and many others).
The
creation of high-performance, highly reliable, highly scalable, secure,
and privacy-preserving VANET technologies presents an
extraordinary
challenge for the wireless research community. Clearly, the specificity
of vehicular inter-networking in terms of mobility behavior,
applications scenarios, and application requirements makes VANET
research an exciting and demanding application- and purpose-driven
sub-discipline of wireless networking.
Furthermore, VANET
present a very active field of research, development, standardization,
and field trials. Throughout the world,
there are many
national and international projects in government, industry, and
academia devoted to VANET. These include consortia like Vehicle
Safety Consortium (US), Car-2-Car Communication Consortium (Europe),
and Advanced Safety Vehicle Program (Japan), standardization efforts
like IEEE 802.11p (WAVE), and field trials like the large-scale Vehicle
Infrastructure Integration Program (VII) in the US.
Authors are
invited to submit papers presenting new research related to the theory
or practice of vehicular inter-networking (VANET). All
submissions must describe original research, not published or currently
under review for another workshop, conference, or journal.
Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Channel modeling
- Modulation and coding
- Power control and scalability issues
- Medium access control protocols
- Multi-channel organization and operation
- Communication protocol design
- Safety and non-safety applications
- Vehicle-to-vehicle/roadside/Internet communication
- Simulation frameworks
- Field operational testing
- Network management
- Security issues and countermeasures
- Privacy issues
Submission Instructions
All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Papers must be
in PDF format, no longer than 10 pages (single- or double-column), use
the ACM SIG Proceedings Templates (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates)
and must fit properly on US Letter-sized paper (8.5 inch x 11 inch)
with reasonable margins. Submitted papers will be judged based on their
quality through a double-blind review process, where the identities of
the authors are withheld from the reviewers.
Detailed instructions for paper
submission will be posted on the VANET 2009 web page at:
http://www.sigmobile.org/workshops/vanet2009/.
