PE-WASUN 2012 - 9-th ACM Symposium on Performance Evaluation of Wireless Ad Hoc, Sensor, and Ubiquitous Networks (PE-WASUN 2012)

9-th ACM Symposium on Performance Evaluation of Wireless Ad Hoc, Sensor, and Ubiquitous Networks
(PE-WASUN 2012)
CALL FOR PAPERS
Scope
Wireless ad hoc, sensor, along with ubiquitous networks have
recently witnessed their fastest growth period ever in history,
and this trend is likely to continue for the foreseeable future.
However, as such networks become increasingly complex, performance
modelling and evaluation will play crucial part in their design
process to ensure their successful deployment and exploitation in
practice.
This symposium aims to bring together scientists, engineers, and
practitioners to share and exchange their experiences, discuss
challenges, and report state-of-the-art and in-progress research
on all aspects of wireless ad hoc, sensor, and ubiquitous networks
with a specific emphasis on their performance evaluation and
analysis. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Predictive performance models of ad hoc, sensor, and ubiquitous
networks
- Analytical modeling
- Probabilistic models for ad hoc, sensor, and ubiquitous networks
- Queuing and network information theoretic analysis
- Tracing and trace analysis
- Software tools for network performance and evaluation
- Simulation methods
- Automatic performance analysis
- Performance comparison
- Performance of wireless and sensor devices
- RF channel capacity modeling and analysis
- Mobility modeling and management
- Traffic models for ad hoc, sensor networks
- Performance evaluation of wireless mesh networks
- Performance evaluation of pervasive and ubiquitous networks
- Performance evaluation of vehicular networks
- Network performance improvement through optimization and tuning
- Performance measurement, evaluation and monitoring tools for ad
hoc, sensor and ubiquitous networks
- Case studies demonstrating the role of performance evaluation in
the design of ad hoc, sensor, and ubiquitous networks
