Overview
Wireless ad hoc networks have attracted the attention of the research
community in the last several years. Now, that some of the fundamental
issues and challenges have been clearly assessed, the focus is partially
shifting to new issues, which include application scenarios (road
safety, disaster recovery, sensors and actuators, etc.), autonomous
organization and operation, optimization and control, and service
creation and support. Moreover, new and exciting challenges are posed by
closely related networks such as wireless mesh networks, sensor
networks, and vehicular networks.
Med-Hoc-Net is a major annual international workshop, aiming to serve as
a platform for researchers and visionaries from academia, research labs,
and industry. Following Sicily (2006), Corfu (2007), Palma de Mallorca
(2008), and Haifa (2009), Med-Hoc-Net 2010 will take place in
Juan-les-pins (France)

AIM and SCOPE
The solicited papers cover a variety of topics related to ad hoc,
wireless, sensor, and mesh networks, including but not limited to:
* Routing algorithms and protocols
* MAC protocols, scheduling, power control, and resource allocation
* Transport layer protocols for multi-hop networks
* Middleware for ad hoc networks
* Application driven architectures and protocols
* Sensor network applications and protocols
* Vehicular networks
* Cognitive radio networks
* Integration of ad hoc networks with wireless access networks
* Implementations, testbeds, and prototypes
* Technology related issues (IEEE 802.11, 16, 21, 22, Bluetooth, ZigBee)
* Self organization and network reconfiguration
* Optimization models and algorithms
* Resource and service discovery
* Use of advanced antenna technologies (MIMO, beam forming, etc.)
* Security and privacy
* Cross layer design mechanisms

SUBMISSION
Submissions should be original and limited to 8 pages in length.
Authors are requested to submit their manuscripts electronically through
the EDAS Web Site.


PROCEEDINGS AND AWARDS
The proceedings of the conference will be published by IEEE (under
request) and the best papers will be published in the Annals of
Telecommunications (ISI indexed journal). A best paper award will be
distributed.

Papers due: February 18, 2010
Notification of acceptance: March 30, 2010
Camera-ready version: April 25, 2010

TRAVEL GRANTS
Graduate students with accepted papers will receive travel grants to
partially cover travel expenses.
