Wireless Battle Mesh v4 - Call for papers<br>
=========================<br>
<br>
Wireless Battle Mesh v4 is at hand and it is time to bring together the<br>
agenda. To avoid last year's dynamic process which gave us a true talk<br>
marathon on the very last day of WBMv3 all talks / workshops / panel<br>
discussions shall be announced beforehand.<br>
<br>
<br>
Tracks<br>
====<br>
<br>
In order to broaden the horizon of the event we are going to split the event<br>
into different tracks:<br>
<br>
* The technical track is taking place throughout the week (monday till friday)<br>
which mainly focuses on rather technical topics like:<br>
=> routing protocol internals<br>
=> implementations / development of "cool" algorithms<br>
=> hands-on routing / multicast / roaming / convergence speed / etc<br>
=> secuity aspects in mesh networks<br>
=> your idea here<br>
<br>
* The weekend (saturday & sunday) is reserved for the applications track which<br>
aims to showcase applications that run on top of the mesh. It is not important<br>
whether protocol X or Y is deployed and how it is implemented, the question<br>
is: What can we do with the mesh once it is there ?<br>
=> VoIP in the mesh ?<br>
=> fast desaster recovery ?<br>
=> artistic projects ?<br>
=> your idea here<br>
<br>
The idea of these tracks is to provide a ground for the different developers /<br>
projects to exchange ideas on technical aspects of algorithms /<br>
implementations / optimizations as well as organizing an exchange with mesh<br>
network users who care less about how the mesh itself works as long as their<br>
application can do its job. On the other hand the weekend serves as an entry<br>
point for people to learn about what you can actually do with mesh networks.<br>
<br>
<br>
Submission<br>
=======<br>
<br>
To allow an efficient handling of your submission, please provide the following<br>
information and send them to me directly in form of an email:<br>
<br>
* your name<br>
* the track you are interested in<br>
* the type of your slot (talk/workshop/panel discussion)<br>
* your topic headline<br>
* your topic description which can brief (does not need to exceed a couple of<br>
lines) but should provide a reasonable summary of your talk<br>
* the dates of your stay at the event + (optional) preferred day for your slot<br>
* length of the slot if you wish to do a workshop (all other slots will be<br>
limited to one hour - notify me in advance if you think that is not enough for<br>
you)<br>
<br>
<br>
Deadlines<br>
======<br>
<br>
Submissions are accepted until and including the 28th of February. Everyone<br>
missing this deadline still has the opportunity to apply for a lightening talk<br>
slot. These slots can be acquired by simply contacting me during the event.<br>
The list of registered lightening talks will be published in the battlemesh<br>
wiki.<br>
The final program will be made available in the aforementioned wiki during the<br>
first week of March.<br>
<br>
If you have any question or suggestion, please let me know.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Marek<br>
