This session solicits original, previously unpublished ideas on completed work, position papers, and/or work-in-progress papers. We encourage papers that propose new research directions or could generate lively debate at the workshop. Aspects of social networking are to be considered that affect the design of Wireless On-demand Network Systems and Services (WONS), providing novel insights on protocol and network design, modeling and performance evaluation, pricing and profitability models, QoS models, practical implementations, service level aspects and Internet integration of wireless networks. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: - Design for “On demand” wireless mobile social networks - Content dissemination and discovery strategies in wireless-mobile social networks - Information sharing and forwarding in wireless-mobile social DTNs. - Rating, reputation, trust and interest-specification and evolution in wireless mobile social networks - Challenges and opportunities posed by mobile social networks Dates: Paper submission: Monday, Nov 10, 2008 (NO EXTENSION!)

Authors are invited to submit double-column full (8 pages) and short papers (4 pages) in PDF format having a font size no smaller than 10pt. Short papers should present future research directions, ongoing work, visionary, innovative ideas; accepted short papers will populate poster sessions at the conference and will be included in the conference proceedings. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. Conference proceedings will be included in the IEEE Xplore library. |
