[DMANET] Special Issue on Modeling and Performance Evaluation of Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks

*Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks Journal*

*Manuscript submission information:*

A primary aim of wireless ad-hoc networks is to deliver data in areas where
there is no pre-defined infrastructure. In these networks, the users, but
also the network entities can be potentially mobile. Wireless ad-hoc
networks have recently witnessed their fastest growth period ever in
history. Real wireless ad-hoc networks are now implemented, deployed and
tested, and this trend is likely to increase in the future. However, as
such networks are increasingly complex, performance modeling and evaluation
play a crucial part in their design process to ensure their successful
deployment and exploitation in practice.

This special issue on Modeling, Analysis and Performance evaluation of
Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks era aims to open a new critical debate on the
evaluation of wireless ad-hoc networks. In particular, we seek original
theoretical and/or practical contributions, from researchers and
practitioners that identify and address issues in evaluating wireless
ad-hoc networks.

*Topics of Interest *In particular, the topics of interest include, but are
not limited to:

- *Modeling*
- Analytical modeling and simulation methods
- Probabilistic models for ad hoc, sensor and ubiquitous networks
- Queuing and network information theoretic analysis
- Predictive performance models
- Mobility modeling
- Traffic models
-
- *Simulation/Experimentation*
- Simulation methods and tools for evaluation wireless ad-hoc networks
- Software tools for performance evaluation
- Tracing and trace analysis
- Automatic performance analysis
- Performance measurement, evaluation and monitoring tools for
wireless ad-hoc networks
- Case studies demonstrating the role of performance evaluation in
the design of wireless ad-hoc networks
-
- *Performance evaluation*
- Performance evaluation of wireless mesh networks
- Performance evaluation of vehicular networks
- Performance evaluation of wireless sensor networks
- Performance evaluation of pervasive and ubiquitous networks
- Performance evaluation of spectrum agile and cognitive wireless
sensor networks
-
