Due to the potential ease of deployment, many applications have been conceived for such networks, including personal area networking, home networking, and battlefield applications. The objective of the proposed special issue is to provide the readers with an overview of the recent progress in the field of wireless ad hoc networks. Ad hoc networking is gaining importance with the increasingly widespread application of wireless technology in day-to-day civilian applications as well as military applications. Scope of the proposed special issue will include various issues related to mobile ad hoc networks -- papers related to upper layers of the protocol stack, including applications, are particularly encouraged. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: * Ad hoc mobile applications * Routing protocols * Energy-efficient protocols * Sensor-based Ad Hoc Networks * Quality of service issues * Security-related issues * Implementation and operational experiences Important Dates * Paper submission due date: August 15, 2000 * Accept/reject decisions by: October 30, 2000 * Revised papers due: November 30, 2000 * Publication date: February 2001 Submission Instructions Electronic paper submission is requested -- acceptable formats are MS Word, PostScript and Portable Document Format (PDF). Submissions should not exceed 24 double-spaced pages. List of references may be single-spaced. Please e-mail your submission to vaidya@cs.tamu.edu (Nitin Vaidya). In addition, please e-mail a plain-text abstract and title for your paper to parviz@us.ibm.com (Parviz Kermani). Due date for all submissions is August 15, 2000. Important: After a paper is submitted for review, the submitting author would be sent an acknowledgement, including the number assigned to the paper. If such an acknowledgement is not received within a week of submitting the paper, the authors are requested to contact the guest editors. It is anticipated that approximately 7 papers will be accepted for publication in this special issue. Guest Editors: Parviz Kermani Nitin H. Vaidya IBM T. J.
