Scope of the Workshop
 

This workshop aims as a forum for researchers working on the design modeling, analysis and performance evaluation of Dynamic Networks. Dynamic Networks can be characterized as networks subject to frequent changes in their structural or functional characteristics, or which are based on hybrid architectures that are supposed to cope with different classes of traffic or provide various classes of services. Examples of such networks are Wireless Ad hoc Networks (either Mobile (MANETs) or Vehicular (VANETs)), Mesh Networks and Sensor Networks; Differentiated services based Networking architectures; Hybrid Optical Network Architectures, etc. This Workshop will constitute a venue for these researchers to contrast their views of Dynamic Networks and discuss a common characterization and suitable tools for the design and analysis of such networks in view of the advances in wireless communication, Optical communication and sensor technologies among others.


  Topics of Interest

Topics suggested for this workshop may include (not exclusively):

 

 

Dynamic Networks: Characterization, Design, Modeling and Analysis

 

Dependability issues in Dynamic routing

 

Wireless, Mobile and Dynamic Network Architectures

 

Energy conservation, context awareness, resiliency in Dynamic Networks

 

New Routing Techniques for Dynamic Networks: Polymorphic routing, Probabilistic        routing, Content-based routing, partial information based routing, on demand        probabilistic routing, proactive probabilistic routing, opportunistic routing,   etc.

 

self stabilization, self healing, self-organization and self-configuration

 

Vital properties of Dynamic Networks: Services and Service discovery
