1st International Workshop on Data Management and Network Control in wireless networks (DMNC)
In conjunction with WASA 2010
August 15, 2010, Beijing, China

Paper Submission Deadline: Sunday, April 25, 2010

DMNC 2010, the First International Workshop on Data Management and Network Control in wireless networks (DMNC), is focused on defining new problems and developing novel techniques for data management and network control issues in wireless and mobile networks. With the emergence of data-intensive wireless networks such as wireless sensor networks and data-centric mobile applications such as location-based services, the traditional boundaries between the disciplines of wireless networking and data management are blurring. This workshop solicits papers from two main categories: (1) papers that consider the data collection, transmission, storage, publishing, and sharing in wireless networks broadly defined, e.g., MANET, cellular, vehicular, ad hoc, cognitive, as well as sensor networks, and (2) papers that use data and network analytics techniques to address network control problems in wireless networks. The workshop provides a venue for researchers to present new ideas with impact on two communities –wireless networks and databases. All accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published in the Springer-LNCS series, and be indexed by EI.

The list of topics includes, but not limited to,
· Data analysis for wireless network traffic control
· Addressing and location management
· Capacity planning
· Content distribution
· Cross layer design and optimization
· Implementation and experimental test-beds
· Topology characterization and inference
· Resource allocation and management
· Traffic engineering and control
· Clustering, coverage and connectivity
· Data transport and management
· Data gathering, fusion and dissemination

We welcome original, unpublished manuscripts for 8-pages papers inclusive of all references and figures. Papers should report completed results. Vision papers and descriptions of work-in-progress are also welcomed as short paper submissions (4 pages). Papers must be written in English, and formatted according to the WASA proceeding format. All submissions should be in the PDF format. All accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published in the Springer-LNCS series, and be indexed by EI. Consequently, each accepted paper needs to have a registration to the conference (no-show will result in exclusion of the paper from the proceeding).
