MONAMI 2013 - 5th International Conference on Mobile Networks And Management

MONAMI 2013 aims at bringing together top researchers, academics and
practitioners specializing in the area of Mobile Network Management, Service
Management, Virtualization and Object Management.
Multiaccess and resource management, mobility management, and network
management have emerged as core topics in the design, deployment and
operation of current and future networks. Yet, they are treated as separate,
isolated domains with very little interaction between the experts in these
fields and lack cross-pollination. Recently, new avant-garde techniques and
solutions have emerged; besides, other novel techniques, such as
virtualization and the cloud paradigm, have taken roots. All in all, these
bring about new requirements and scientific challenges. MONAMI 2013 offers
the opportunity to leading researchers, industry professionals and academics
around the world to meet and discuss the latest advances in these areas and
present results related to technologies for true plug-and-play networking,
efficient use of all infrastructure investments, and access competition. The
aim of the forum is to disseminate the latest innovative mobile network
solutions for increased competition and cooperation in an environment with a
multitude of access technologies, network operators and business actors.
CALL FOR PAPERS______________________________________________________
MONAMI 2013 invites researchers to submit papers within the scope of the
conference that follow either evolutionary approaches based on current
IP-centered architectures or introduce revolutionary approaches and new
paradigms. Papers reporting experimental and empirical studies as well as
implementation/industry results (including testbeds and field trials) are
also welcome.
Topics of particular interest include:
- Multiaccess networks and resource management
- Mobile network management and virtualization
- Future Internet architectures and mobile network management
- Future Internet architectures with smart objects
- Energy efficiency for multiaccess networks
- Emerging multimedia services, service enablers and management
- IEEE and 3GPP management standards and enabling technologies
- Design, implementation, and testbed/experimental evaluations
- Service and application management platforms
- Autonomic network monitoring and management
- Architecture and design of new services with smart objects
- Energy-efficient, self-organized access and routing schemes
for smart object systems
- Security solutions for managed and infrastructureless networks
- Management of wireless cognitive networks
- M2M systems and services
Papers accompanied by a live demonstration at the conference are actively
solicited.
MONAMI 2013 is sponsored by EAI and technically co- sponsored by Create-Net.
The conference proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in the
LNICST series, and will be archived online on SpringerLink.
*Paper Submission*
We encourage submissions of high-quality technical papers reporting original
research that has not been previously published, and is not currently
submitted for consideration elsewhere. Full Papers should not exceed 14
pages in the Springer Lecture Notes of ICST (LNICST) format and must be
submitted by *8 April 2013*. LNICST templates are available from
www.springer.com/computer?SGWID=0-146-6-564009-0.
All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by at least three independent
reviewers, including a TPC member to ensure high quality and relevance to
the topics of the conference. All accepted papers will be published in the
Springer Lecture Notes of ICST series and then be included in major article
indexing services.
*Important Dates*
Paper Submission Deadline: 30 April 2013 [Extended] Notification of
Acceptance: 9 June 2013
Camera Ready Deadline: 7 July 2013
Conference Date: 23-25 September 2013
CALL FOR TUTORIALS__________________________________________________
We invite perspective tutorial speakers to submit relevant proposals for a
half-day tutorial. The scope of the tutorial proposal should be within the
interest of MONAMI attendees (see Aim and Scope and topics of interest). In
addition, tutorial proposals on related and complementary topics, e.g.
mobile devices or applications, smart grids or alternative energy supply are
welcome. Each tutorial proposal should include the title, objectives,
abstract, outline, and intended audience. A short biography of each tutorial
presenter should also be submitted along with the list of conferences/events
where this tutorial has been previously presented.
Please submit your proposal in electronic form to the Tutorials Chair at
tutorials_monami-AT-tlmat.unican.es by 8 April 2013.
