Wireless on-demand network systems and services have become mainstream technology, one that keeps shaping the networked world of the future. Different types of wireless LANs, both sub-6 GHz and in higher frequency bands, as well as such established technologies as Bluetooth LE, LTE-Direct, NFC, and optical links are the cornerstone of networking paradigms including NextG cellular, mesh and sensor networks, cloud networks, vehicular networks, non-terrestrial networks and in-body networks.

 

The challenges of this exciting research field are numerous. These include providing robust services in highly dynamic and extreme environments, how to minimize energy demands or zero out battery usage in favor of renewable energy sources, how to smartly blend multiple wireless technologies available to a network node (including across radically different bands), and how to make wireless on-demand networks and services self-configurable, adaptive, self-organizing, and self-healing in a wealth of different context, each exhibiting its own peculiar constraints.

 

IFIP WONS, now at its eighteenth edition, has established itself as a high quality forum to address the above and related challenges. WONS 2023 aims at continuing to provide a global platform for rich interactions between experts in their fields, discussing innovative contributions in a stimulating environment.

 

This announcement solicits original contributions of high-quality research providing novel insights on all aspects of wireless on-demand networks and systems. Topics of interest comprise, but are not limited to:

 

5G and 6G networks

Cloud/edge/fog computing and networking

Cognitive radio networks

Cross-layer design

Data analytics and ML/AI-driven network systems

Heterogeneous wireless networks

Joint communications, networking, and sensing

Implementations and testbeds

Internet of Things

Intra-body and biomedical on-demand systems

Integration of different wireless technologies

Localization and mobility management

Mobile computing and services

Network and service management

Non-terrestrial (aerial, space, underwater, …) networks

Novel architectures, protocols, applications and services

Open source software, open source hardware and open data

Optical and visible light wireless networks

Performance evaluation through simulations, emulations and real-world experiments

Pervasive and ubiquitous computing

Quantum computing and networking

QoS and QoE aspects

Security, privacy, and trust

Social and economic aspects

Sustainable networks and distributed ML/AI services

Theoretical and data driven modeling and optimization

Vehicular networks

Wireless technologies for NextG networks (millimeter-wave, terahertz, …)

 

MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION

 

Authors are invited to submit double-column long papers (up to 8 pages) and short papers (up to 4 pages) as a PDF file using the standard IEEE template, with a font size no smaller than 10pt. Short papers should present future research directions and ongoing work with visionary, innovative ideas; accepted short papers will be presented in a separate session at the conference and will be included in the conference proceedings. Submitted papers must not have been published elsewhere and must not be currently under review by another conference or journal. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper. All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by at least 3 independent experts in the field, following a single-blind process.

 

REVIEW PROCESS

 

We will have at least 3 reviews per paper and we count on the TPC members to do the reviews themselves in order to ensure high quality and comprehensive reviews.

 

VENUE - HOTEL CARLO MAGNO

 

The conference will be hosted at the Hotel Carlo Magno SPA & Resort located in Madonna di Campiglio, Trento, Italy. The hotel welcomes guests to the world of snow-covered peaks of the Brenta Dolomites that are the backdrop for the splendid area comprising Madonna di Campiglio. Just a few steps away from the hotel visitors can find lifts and run for cross-country skiing. With the wondrous view of the Dolomites you can experience the magic of a pure and uncontaminated nature.

 

Conference attendees will have the opportunity to reserve a room at a special rate. The offer is reserved to participants that will booking a room before the 14th of Dec. 2022 (Early Registration deadline).
