Call For Papers - CFP

Mobile Peer-to-Peer Information Services (MP2PIS)

In conjunction with the 10th International Conference on

Mobile Data Management (MDM'09)

Taipei, Taiwan, May 18-21, 2009

Theme of the Workshop

Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks undoubtedly receive wide attention because of

their

broad applications such as file sharing and media streaming services.

Substantial research efforts have contributed to the success of P2P

paradigms in

the wired network environments. As broadband wireless connections (e.g.,

WLAN,

WiMAX, 3G, 3.5G, and emerging 4G) become affordable and popular, mobile

users

now have increasing interests to participate in P2P services anywhere,

anytime

through their handheld devices.

The special characteristics of wireless mobile environment such as highly

variable connectivity, energy and resource sensitivity, and communication

asymmetry render new challenges, problems and issues for research in mobile

P2P

computing. The techniques developed for the wired P2P networks may not be

applied directly in such environments. New derivatives or modification to

present P2P data dissemination and management strategies are required. As a

result, research works should propose promising solutions that enable

efficient

and reliable mobile P2P information services in the province of mobile P2P

computing.

Workshop Goals

Mobile P2P is a cross cutting area as it crosses communications, networking,

information dissemination, databases, and security. The main goal of the

workshop is to gather scientists from these areas together to foster the

collaboration among such interdisciplinary areas and sparkle discussion on

open

topics related to mobile P2P.

Workshop Scope

The scope of this workshop includes but is not limited to the following

topics:

- Peer-to-peer overlays for wireless and mobile networks

- Hybrid P2P service architectures for integrated fixed and mobile wide-area

networks

- Large-scale mobile P2P systems

- MP2P Data management (Schedule/Cache/Replica/Index/Query)

- Impact of network mobility on P2P information services

- P2P-based Information sensing and fusion

- Data broadcast, dissemination in MP2P

- Publish/Subscribe in MP2P

- File Sharing in MP2P

- Media Streaming in MP2P

- Resource and service discovery in MP2P

- Peer access and control in mobile environment

- MP2P messaging systems, monitoring systems, searching systems, etc.

- Location dependent MP2P services

- Novel MP2P applications & services
