Cognitive Radio (CR) is an enabling technology that will allow adapting the radio’s operating characteristics to the real-time conditions of the environment to better utilize scarce spectrum resources. Such dynamic spectrum devices must also make judicious use of the available spectrum, power, and transmission bandwidth to achieve energy efficient communications, and thus help in the practical implementation of this new paradigm. Cognitive radio and resource-aware communication technologies and protocols will enable new and innovative application scenarios, such as ubiquitous medical telemetry and bio-monitoring services, smart metering, energy management and control for building and cities based on large scale wireless sensor/actuator networks. Many of these applications are not widely deployed due to scalability concerns, spectrum unavailability, and energy efficiency problems with existing networking technologies. Thus, there is a need to draw the attention of the research community for developing novel dynamic spectrum access schemes, strategies for low power operation and for adapting the physical, link, and network layer protocols for enhanced coverage, more robust and collision-free operation. Thus, the cognitive radio and resource-aware paradigms require re-visiting several classical networking concepts of spectrum-agile communication, energy-efficient communication, node mobility, and merging inter-disciplinary research from a practical viewpoint.This workshop will focus on key research challenges related to cognitive and resource-aware communications, including the dynamic spectrum access paradigm, cognitive radio networks, multichannel sensor and mobile ad hoc networks, and it is intended to be a forum for collaboration across multiple communities, ranging from academic to government to industry. Original papers are invited on protocol/algorithm design, experimental results, analytical modeling covering but not limited to following topics:?Utility networks (e.g. electricity metering, gas, water) based on CRs and white spaces? Energy and spectrally efficient wireless sensor and actuator networks? Wireless ad hoc networks with joint channel selection, power, transmission rate, energy control? CR networks for building and home automation? Public safety and emergency services using vacant spectrum opportunities? Healthcare and medical applications of CR networks? Medical body area networks based on CR technology? Energy-aware CR-based PHY, MAC and Network protocols? Energy harvesting, optimization and adaptation schemes using CR? Performance evaluation of PHY, MAC, Network and Application protocols for CR networks? Economic models of joint energy and spectrum-aware operation? Spectrum sensing and cognitive radio test-beds and prototypes? Standardization of CRNs for fixed and personal/portable devices, such as IEEE 802.22, 802.19, 802.11 and ECMA 392?Coexistence of heterogeneous applications and CRNs in TVWS ? Multimedia delivery using CR networksPaper submissionSubmitted papers must represent original material that is not currently under review in any other conference or journal, and has not been previously published.
