NovaEnEv
First International Workshop on Novel approaches to Energy
Measurement and Evaluation in Wireless Networks
in conjunction with
ICC 2012, June 10.-15., Ottawa, Canada

Scope:
Energy efficiency is an omnipresent topic in the field of wireless
network research. However, realistic evaluations in real-world
deployments are challenging and very time consuming. Furthermore, it
lacks of adequate tools. These are reasons for prior work to
oversimplify, causing imprecise results. With recent advances in
simulator tools as well as an increasing number of testbeds the next
step in evaluating energy efficiency is now feasible: realistic
evaluations of energy efficiency.

NovaEnEv brings together researchers interested in a more realistic
evaluation of energy efficiency and energy consumption of architectures,
protocols, and applications in wireless networks. NovaEnEv serves as a
forum to share ideas how to perform realistic evaluations and to
facilitate discussions of unresolved challenges in this area. Please
provide original, previously unpublished papers addressing realistic
evaluations with focus on energy efficiency, energy consumption, and
energy usage characteristics. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to:

- Realistic design and evaluation of energy efficient protocols in
wireless ad-hoc and sensor networks
- Energy-aware protocols and applications
- Testbeds with focus on energy evaluation
- Usage of testbeds to measure energy consumption in real-world
deployments
- Energy measurement methodologies and concepts
- Integration of energy measurements into evaluations
- Comparison of simulative vs. testbed evaluations
- Modeling and validation of energy models
- Hardware profiling
- Experiences and lessons learned from real-world evaluations


Contribution format:
The authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing original,
previously unpublished, complete research, not currently under review by
another conference or journal, addressing state-of-the-art research and
development. All submissions should be written in English with a maximum
paper length of six (6) printed pages (10-point font) including
figures. Submissions longer than 6 pages will not be considered.
