		  	  CALL FOR PAPERS
     Sigcomm 2006 - Workshop on Challenged Networks
(CHANTS-06)
   	         Pisa, Italy - September 15, 2006

============================================================

Technical Area:

   Challenged networks include those found in mobile and
in-motion 
networking, dynamic wireless networks, heterogeneous and
mobile 
sensor networks, interplanetary networking, and networks
providing 
rural connectivity. Such networks are not well served by
standard 
TCP/IP solutions, due to the prevalence of disconnection,
disruption, 
intermittency, large delays, or other factors. 

   Today, the most successful network architecture is that
of the 
Internet. It has scaled well beyond the original plan of its

designers, and the Internet Protocol has been carried on a
great 
number of underlying protocols, including itself. However,
the 
Internet's protocol architecture suffers some problems when

implemented on classes of networks for which it was not
originally 
designed. For example, when disconnection and reconnection
is common, 
or link performance is highly variable or extreme, one or
more of the 
traditional Internet protocols do not work well. In this
workshop, we 
wish to explore physical networks that operate significantly

differently from wired, connected networks and the protocol 
architectures and algorithms used to deal with such
situations. 
Techniques for making applications tolerant to disruptions
and/or 
high delays are also in scope. More specifically, we solicit
papers 
in the following areas:

- Characterization of performance-challenged networks, 
e.g. network measurements.
- Networking systems operating over unusual/challenged
networks.
- Protocol design and evaluation of operations over
challenged 
networks.
- Robust network application design and implementation
techniques. 
- Delay tolerant and disruption tolerant networks (DTN).
- Situated and autonomic communications for challenged
networks.
- Handling user concerns in challenged networks such as
usability, 
privacy, security and incentives to cooperate.

   Submissions may include presentations of specific systems
or 
performance measurements, as well as more general,
philosophical 
position papers. Papers that bring out interesting and novel
ideas at 
an early stage in their development are favored over highly
polished, 
journal-style results. Selected papers will be
forward-looking, with 
impact and implications for ongoing or future research. We
aim to 
accept around 15 papers, and to have a highly interactive
workshop 
focusing on broader issues and community development.

Paper Format and Submission:

   All submitted papers should be formatted according to the
ACM 
SIG proceeding template found here: 
    
	ht
tp://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html

   In particular, this format uses 9pt font in two columns
with 
particular margin sizes. Papers must be no longer than eight
pages 
and must be in PDF format. Papers will be reviewed single
blind, 
which means be sure to include author information on the
first page 
after the title and before the abstract. Papers that do not
adhere 
to these requirements exactly (or attempt to cheat on
spacing or 
fonts) will not be accepted for submission. All papers
should be 
submitted via EDAS. For more details please visit the CHANTS
webpage:
