Ecole d'été sur les réseaux de communication

ResCom 2010

« Communications dans les systèmes de transport intelligents »

Du 13 au 18 Juin 2010

Presqu’ile de Giens

http://rescom2010.isae.fr

L'école RÉSCOM constitue un des principaux outils de formation et d'animation scientifique de haut niveau promu par le pôle RESCOM du groupe de recherche Architectures Systèmes et Réseaux du CNRS. Cette école de recherche qui connait un succès jamais démenti depuis 15 ans vise la formation par la recherche et la promotion des recherches sur les réseaux de communication. Son but est donc d'établir un lieu privilégié pour la transmission, à un niveau national, voire européen, de l'état de l'art et des grandes avancées de la recherche sur les réseaux de communication.

Le thème scientifique développé dans le cadre de l’édition 2010 de l’école RÉSCOM s’inscrit dans l’évolution des réseaux de communications sans fil qui sont désormais omniprésents dans notre vie quotidienne et qui offrent de nombreuses perspectives dans de multiples domaines liés à la sécurité des personnes en particulier dans les systèmes de transports de nouvelle génération.

L'édition 2010 de l'école de recherche ResCom, consacrée aux communications dans les systèmes de transport intelligents (thème riche d’enjeux économiques, sociétaux et industriels) s'inscrit dans une logique d'animation et de promotion de l'excellence scientifique en proposant un point de haut niveau sur l'état de l'art des verrous scientifiques et technologiques ainsi qu’un tour d’horizon des solutions proposées.

C’est ainsi que les problématiques suivantes seront proposées :

. Les réseaux ad-hoc véhiculaires ;

· . Les réseaux de capteurs véhiculaires ;

· . L’intégration fixe/mobile ;

· . L’évaluation des performances : modèles de mobilité, la simulation et les tests ;

· . Les problèmes de localisation ;

· . Les standards et leurs impacts sur le monde de la recherche dans ce domaine ;

· . Les systèmes de communications pour les autres types de transports

L'édition 2010 proposera un ensemble de tutoriaux et d'exposés techniques réalisés par des intervenant faisant autorité tant par leur expertise scientifique reconnue internationalement que par leur compétence pédagogique. Ce cycle de tutoriaux et d'exposés sera complété par une session dans laquelle chaque chercheur sénior présentera brièvement sa vision prospective de recherche ainsi que par deux sessions posters consacrées aux travaux de tous les jeunes chercheurs participant à l'édition 2010.

Au regard du nombre limité de places nous ne pouvons garantir que toutes les demandes d'inscriptions seront satisfaites. Les inscriptions seront traitées selon leur ordre d'arrivée. Il est fortement recommandé de s'inscrire au plus tôt à partir du site http://rescom2010.isae.fr !!

Merci de diffuser largement cet appel à participation !

ASSOCIATED EVENT
-----------------

Introducing the 2010 Mobile Enterprise and Technology Expo (METE)

This year, we will be adding the inaugural 2010 Mobile Enterprise and
Technology Expo (METE) as a venue that gathers all industrial creators,
publishers, and distributors of mobile operating systems, mobile
software development kits and mobile (enterprise) applications. METE
will enable such parties to show-case their state-of-the-art as well as
upcoming products and developments in demo style displays. Alongside the
demos, there will be an exhibition area for commercial exhibitors to
expand their network of clients and foster relationships with existing
customers. We envision METE as the industrial component that complements
the academic part of Mobility 2010 with the main goal of forging links
between academics and the industry. Participants of either component of
Mobility 2010 may cross over to the other conference/exhibition to
listen to the various talks, presentations and demos. Through this
interaction, we sincerely hope that industry participants can have a
common platform to work with their academic counterparts.

post-proceedings to be published by Springer-Verlag as volume of the
series of Studies in Computational Intelligence.
Authors of abstracts presented at the workshop will be invited to submit

CALL FOR PAPERS


The 6th International workshop on
Wireless Network Measurements

May 31, 2010, Avignon, France
http://www.thlab.net/winmee10/

Scope
The rise in wireless technologies for both local and wide-area networking,
such as ZigBee, Wi-Fi, WiMAX, 3G and LTE, means that the Internet is
increasingly wireless. To better understand the nature of these changes,
it is important to evaluate these technologies in real-world environments
via empirical measurement. While analytical and simulation-based approaches
are useful, they are often limited by the simplistic modeling of the
wireless protocols and the varying and error-prone wireless channel.
As a response to these limitations, the need for experimental wireless
network measurements has gained wide recognition in the networking
research community.

This workshop continues the successful WiNMee series, begun at WiOpt in
2005, and is intended to bring together researchers in the field of
experimental wireless networking and serve as a forum for discussing
advances and challenges in experimental wireless network measurements.
We solicit 6-page papers that advance the understanding of wireless
networks through testbed measurements or field experiments.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- operational experience of the performance of wireless networks
- challenges with wireless measurements
- experimental (in) validation of simulation or mobility models
and assumptions in a wireless environment
- metrics that would be required in a wireless network for
performance evaluation or wireless network troubleshooting
- experience from building/designing wireless networks
- descriptions of tools for building and/or managing wireless
testbeds (e.g. wireless link emulation)
- large-scale or federated testbed measurements
- techniques for improving the repeatability of tests,
simplifying experiment setup and reconfiguration
- techniques for validating the results obtained in the wireless testbed
- techniques for measuring heterogenous wireless networks
- techniques for collecting, archiving, anonymising and sharing
wireless measurement data
- new measurement hardware platforms, e.g., cognitive radio

Important dates:
Paper registration deadline: February 17th, 2010
Paper submission deadline: February 24th, 2010
