CALL FOR PAPERS

For the reliable performance evaluation of wireless networks, realistic models

and credible simulation scenarios are crucial. Recently, in the area of wireless

networks, it has been shown that simplistic models for mobility, traffic, and

signal propagation yield results that are too optimistic. In order to provide

more credible models, traces from specific scenarios need to be acquired and

then realistic scenario models need to be developed and validated. We solicit

papers on mobility, traffic, propagation, and scenario modelling for various

wireless networks including MANETs, DTNs and vehicular networks. Papers on trace

measurement architectures and trace characterizations of wireless networks are

also welcome.

The main purpose of this workshop is to promote further research interests and

activities on scenario modelling of wireless networks. It is also aimed at

increasing the synergy between academic and industrial researchers working in

this area. We are interested in experimental, systems-related, theoretical, and

work-in-progress papers in all aspects of wireless network scenarios.

The topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

* Classification of scenarios

* Challenges in trace acquisition

* Tools for mobility, traffic and propagation modelling

* Methods in localization and tracking to acquire accurate movement traces

* Movement trace measurement architectures

* Characterization of movement traces

* Mobility modelling

* Validation of mobility models

* Traffic measurement, traffic characterization, traffic modelling

* Combined mobility and traffic modelling

* Characterization of signal propagation

* Propagation modelling

* Impact of mobility on radio characterization

* Impact of scenario modelling on performance

Authors are invited to submit full papers and work-in-progress papers for

presentation at the workshop. Papers (no more than 8 camera-ready pages in ACM

conference proceedings format) should describe original, previously unpublished

work, not currently under review by another conference, workshop, or journal.

For detailed submission instructions, together with format files, see the SCENES

website. All submissions will be handled via EDAS: http://edas.info/7006

IMPORTANT DATES:

Paper submission deadline: Nov. 16, 2008

Notification of acceptance: Jan. 6, 2009

Camera-ready paper due: Jan. 25, 2009
