SCOPE:
Users are becoming increasingly mobile and this requires solutions to
manage network connectivity in different situations and places both in
urban and rural areas.

We are interested in visionary, experimental, systems-related and work
in-progress papers in the area of mobility management including
protocols enabling mobility, heterogeneous network access, vehicular
networks, security and applications.

These are the areas of interest for the workshop:

Vehicular networks
--------------------------------
Mobility issues in DSRC
Gateway access and selection
Inter-vehicle communication (V2V)
Vehicle to infrastructure communication (V2I)
Network availability

User Mobility
--------------------------
Mobile IP issues
SIP related issues
Transport layer mobility
Cross layer design for mobility
Policy-based management of mobility
Service discovery

Heterogeneity
------------------------
Managing vertical handover
Multihoming
Performance metrics
Access network selection
QoS provisioning in heterogeneous networks
Network operation and maintenance

Security
-------------------
AAA mobility support
Specific demands in mobile environments
Trust and privacy for mobile users

Applications
--------------------------
Multimedia for mobile users
Media support for mobile users and vehicles
Scalable applications
Service deployment issues
Quality of Experience
Guidance applications

Workshop chairs

Paper submission and publication
---------------------------------------------------------
Authors are invited to submit papers for presentation at the workshop.
Papers (no more than 8 camera-ready pages, 10 pt font in IEEE
transactions format) should present novel perspectives within the
general scope of the workshop. Only original papers that have not been
published or submitted for publication elsewhere can be submitted.
All submission instructions can be found here:
http://www.ieee-lcn-onmove.org/submission.php

Accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of IEEE LCN and
on IEEE Xplore.

Poster papers are an opportunity to present initial results and obtain
feedback on on-going research. We also welcome submissions for
demonstrations that showcase original research, practical
implementations and realistic applications of user mobility and
vehicular networks. Poster/demo papers must be restricted to 2
camera-ready pages.
