The 5th International Workshop on Localized Communication and Topology Protocols for Ad hoc Networksto be held in conjunction withThe 5th International Conference on Mobile Ad-Hoc and Sensor Networks (MSN 2009)14-16, December, 2009 â?“ Wu Yi Mountain, Chinahttp://www.comp.polyu.edu.hk/conference/msn09/LOCAN 2005 | LOCAN2006 | LOCAN2007 | LOCAN2008 NEWS: Excellent papers will be invited to the special issue of Ad Hoc & Sensor Wireless Networks, An international Journal (AHSWN) [SCIE-indexed].Subject and Purpose of the WorkshopThis workshop covers comprehensively the algorithmic issues in the hot area of ad hoc and sensor networking. In particular, sensor networks are currently recognized as one of the priority research areas (for example, a multi-disciplinary program on sensors and sensor networks was launched in 2003 at the US National Science Foundation) and research activities are booming recently.This workshop concentrates on network layer problems like data communication (routing, QoS-routing, geocasting, multicasting, broadcasting, etc.) and topology control (neighbor discovery, power adjustment, neighbor elimination, etc.). The main paradigm shift is to apply localized (or greedy) schemes as opposed to existing protocols requiring global information. Localized algorithms are distributed algorithms where simple local node behavior achieves a desired global objective. Localized protocols provide scalable solutions, that is, solutions for wireless networks with an arbitrary number of nodes, which is the main goal of this plan. Sensor and rooftop/mesh networks, for instance, have hundreds or thousands of nodes.The objective of the workshop is to present state of the art research results on data communication and topology control in rapidly growing area of ad hoc and sensor networks, with emphasizes on localized techniquesTopics of InterestWe are seeking papers that describe original and unpublished contributions addressing various aspects of ad hoc networking. Possible topics of interest include, but are not limited to:Medium access control for ad hoc networksAnalytical, mobility and validation models for ad hoc networksHybrid networks and wireless InternetSecurity in ad hoc networksData management, query processing, and data delivery in sensor networksUnicast routing, multicasting, and broadcasting in ad hoc networksGeocasting and anycasting in ad hoc networksEnergy-efficient and bandwidth-efficient protocols for ad hoc networksQuality of service in medium access control and routingTopology construction and maintenance in ad hoc networksNeighborhood discovery and mobility management in ad hoc networksLocalized protocols for duty-cycled sensor networksAuto-configuration and network formation protocols and algorithmsRelative positioning algorithmsLower bounds on information exchange required for localized solutionsNetwork graph properties supporting localized protocolsWorst and average case analysis on the deviation from optimal solutions
