The VMIL workshop is a forum for research in virtual machines and intermediate languages. It is dedicated to identifying programming mechanisms and constructs that are currently realized as code transformations or implemented in libraries but should rather be supported at VM level. Candidates for such mechanisms and constructs include modularity mechanisms (aspects, context–dependent layers), concurrency (threads and locking, actors, softwar <P style="PADDING–RIGHT: 2em; PADDING–LEFT: 2em; TEXT–ALIGN: left">As more and more users become increasingly dependent on wireless and mobile communications, it is necessary to secure a reliable and dependable technology support for "on–demand" services through any of the wireless architectures that have been in development recently, such as mesh networks, wimax, wifi, ad hoc networks, sensor networks, etc. </P> <P style="PADDING–RIGHT: 2em; PADDING–LEFT: 2em; TEXT–ALIGN: left">However, there are serious challenges to overcome, such as the integration of infrastructure–based and ad hoc networks, robust algorithms for self–organizing, reconfigurable wireless networks, on–demand service models and their provision in a highly–volatile interconnection environment, and smooth interoperability of architectures. </P> <P style="PADDING–RIGHT: 2em; PADDING–LEFT: 2em; TEXT–ALIGN: left">WONS, now in its seventh edition, has established itself as a high–quality forum to address these challenges in the context of a workshop that is rich in intense interactions and based on innovative contributions by experts in the field. </P> <P style="PADDING–RIGHT: 2em; PADDING–LEFT: 2em; TEXT–ALIGN: left">This announcement solicits original submissions of high–quality research papers on "wireless on demand networks" that provide 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. </P> <P style="PADDING–RIGHT: 2em; PADDING–LEFT: 2em; TEXT–ALIGN: left">Topics related to wireless ad hoc networks, mesh networks, vehicular networks and sensor networks comprise, but are not limited to: </P> <UL style="TEXT–ALIGN: left"> <LI>Architecture and Design</LI> <LI>Analysis through simulation and experimental evaluation</LI> <LI>Modeling </LI> <LI>Internet integration</LI> <LI>Social and economic aspects</LI> <LI>Pervasive / ubiquitous computing</LI> <LI>Localization and mobility management</LI> <LI>Security</LI> <LI>Energy–efficient protocols and power management</LI> <LI>Applications and Service Support </LI> <LI>Data dissemination and Peer–to–Peer systems</LI> <LI>Middleware aspects</LI> <LI>Self–X and network management</LI></UL>e transactional memory), transactions, etc. Topics of interest include the investigation of which such mechanisms are worthwhile candidates for integration with the run–time environment, how said mechanisms can be elegantly (and reusably) expressed at the intermediate language level (e.g., in bytecode), how their implementations can be optimized, and how virtual machine architectures might be shaped to facilitate such implementation efforts.
