DARWiN 2017 - 2017 International Workshop on Distributed, Autonomic and Robust Wireless Networks (DARWiN)

The International Workshop on Distributed, Autonomic and Robust Wireless Networks (DARWiN) aims to gather researchers interested on wireless communications. They will have the opportunity to discuss on ongoing research and new contributions. DARWiN invites interesting contributions in both theoritical (modelisation, algorithmic) and experimental (simulation, emulation, real experimentation) fields. The main application domains are ad hoc networks, sensor networks, mesh networks and vehicular networks, but they can be extended to other types of wireless networks (especially low-resources networks).
Topics for the workshop include, but are not limited to:
• Wireless sensor networks, vehicular ad hoc networks
• Wireless Software-Defined Networking
• MAC, routing and transport protocols
• Resource allocation and management
• Quality of service
• Network scalability and capacity
• Reliability and fault tolerance algorithms
• Security and privacy
• Applications of wireless ad hoc networks
• Performance modeling and analysis
• Tools/platform for designing, implementing and evaluating wireless communication protocols
• Distributed algorithms issues for wireless networks
• Autonomic computing
• Wireless networks optimization
• Secure Services and Protocols
• Indoor/outdoor Positioning methods based on distributed wireless networks
• Smart cities
• Internet of Things
