CONFERENCE TOPICS

Following the success of the first conference MSN 2005, held in Wuhan, China, MSN 2006 provides a forum for researchers and practitioners to exchange research results and share development experiences. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following areas in mobile ad hoc and sensor networks:
  • Network architecture and protocols
  • Software platforms and development tools
  • Self-organization and synchronization
  • Routing and data dissemination
  • Failure resilience and fault isolation
  • Energy Management
  • Data, information, and signal processing
  • Security and privacy
  • Network planning, provisioning, and deployment
  • Network modeling and performance evaluation
  • Developments and applications
  • Integration with other system
