Aim of the Workshop
The aim of the workshop is to bring together a highly qualified group of
people to present current state-of-art research and development in
interrelated fields of cognitive radio and cognitive networking. To date
much of the research in the cognitive networks/cognitive radio has focused
on the development of dynamic and adaptive strategies, often referred to as
'weak' intelligence. The next big gains in this field will be realized with
increasing application of ever 'stronger' intelligence techniques, e.g.
based on machine learning. This fusion of wireless communications with the
field of distributed artificial intelligence holds the promise of a new
highly efficient and flexible communications paradigm, capable of supporting
overlapping heterogeneous systems in pooled spectrum. Such intelligence
techniques are ideally suited to the lower layers of the protocol stack,
e.g. to influence routing, resource and spectrum assignment, and spectrum
sensing decisions. The workshop will highlight the newest trends in this
emerging area, complementing it with first practical implementations and
demonstrations in this field. COGCOM seeks papers dealing with architectural
issues, theoretical studies, new paradigms, enabling technologies for
cognitive wireless networks, practical implementations, and policy issues.
Besides the technical insights, the workshop will provide a supportive
environment for technical discussions between like-minded researchers.
Topics of interests (not limited to)
Topics of interest relating to cognitive radio and cognitive networking are
(but not limited to):
* Architectures and platforms of cognitive networks
* Distributed artificial intelligence techniques for cognitive
networks
* Cognitive routing metrics and supporting protocols
* Reduced complexity cognitive radios and cognitive networks
* Modeling of cognitive access techniques, including regulatory and
business cases
* Signal processing for cognitive networks
* Physical and MAC layer issues
* Protocols design for cognitive networks
* Cross-layer optimization in cognitive networks
* Security issues for cognitive networks
* Sensor aided cognitive networks
* Cognitive mesh networks
* Spectrum management policy and strategy for cognitive networks
* Peer-to-Peer technologies
* Fast and wideband spectrum sensing
* Measurements on the spectrum usage
* Application of game theory and intelligence techniques for spectrum
assignment
* Testbed experiment, applications and new advances
Submission Guidelines
COGCOM accepts only novel, previously unpublished papers in the area of
Cognitive Wireless Networks. Submissions must include an abstract, five to
ten keywords, the e-mail address of the corresponding author and should not
exceed 6 pages, including tables and figures (up to two extra pages at
additional cost) in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt
font). The proceedings of the workshops program will be published, as the
IEEE ICCCN 2009 main conference, by IEEE Communications Society and IEEE
Digital Library.
Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the
paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register for the
conference and present the work. Submissions will be conducted
electronically on the conference website: http://icccn.org/icccn09/.
