Exploitation of Higher Frequency Bands in Broadband Aerospace Communications (EHF-AEROCOMM)
Chair: Claudio Sacchi (University of Trento, IT), Marina Ruggieri (University of Rome "Tor Vergata", Italy) The EHF-AEROCOMM workshop will be a unique opportunity in order to discuss open issues about the exploitation of Extremely High Frequencies (EHF, domain, ranging from 30 GHz to 300 GHz) in aerospace communications (satellite, high-altitude platforms, optical communications, radar applications). The workshop will contain invited lectures and speeches, oral presentations, a technology track session devoted to technical discussions around posters and demos highlighting emerging technological developments. The workshop will be concluded by a panel session where participants will try to resume ideas, critical points, risks and future challenges emerged during sessions and invited talks.

Wireless Mesh and Sensor Networks: Paving the Way to the Future or yet Another...?
Chairs: Neeli Prasad (Center for Teleinfrastruktur (CTIF), Aalborg University, DK) Paulo De Sousa (EU Officer, BE) Harry
Skianis (University of the Aegean, GR)
This workshop is intended to serve as a forum and bring together
researchers and engineers in both academia and industry to exchange
ideas, share experiences, and report original works about all aspects of
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) and wireless sensor networks (WSNs). WMNs
and WSNs are two emerging wireless technologies which will have important impact in the future. |

The 9th International Workshop on Optical Networking Technologies: ROADMs: Components, Systems, and Networks
Chair: Tarek El-Bawab (Jackson State University, US)
The Reconfigurable Optical Add/Drop Multiplexer (ROADM) is one of the most important building blocks of next-generation optical networks. Recent progress in optical device and system technologies
enabled cost-effective realization of innovative agile ROADM architectures. These architectures are needed today to enable service providers, Telcos and Cable MSOs alike, to face the increasing
demand for triple-play (delivery of voice, data, and video to end customer). In this workshop, experts in the field will examine several ROADM technologies and systems which are emerging
today. We discuss the impact of these systems on service providers‚ networks and examine their effect on network architectures, operation, and management. |

Service Discovery and Composition in Ubiquitous and Pervasive Environments
Chair: Mohamed Bakhouya (George Washington University, US)
Automatic service discovery and composition in ubiquitous and pervasive
environments requires dealing with several research issues such as
service matching and selection coordination and management, scalability,
fault tolerance, and adaptiveness to users’ contexts and network
conditions. This workshop is intended to serve as a forum to promote
discussions of research in the design of service composition
architectures, algorithms, and applications for ubiquitous and pervasive
environments. |

3rd IEEE Automotive Networking and Applications (AutoNet) Workshop
Chairs: Wai Chen (Telcordia Technologies, US) and Onur Altintas (Toyota InfoTechnology Center)
This workshop brings together researchers, professionals, and practitioners to discuss latest developments and challenges in deploying
vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) / vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) networking
technologies and their applications in preventive safety, traffic
management, vehicle diagnostics, mobile commerce, and entertainment. |

4th IEEE Broadband Wireless Access Workshop (BWA 2008)
Featuring a keynote presentation by Prof. Edward Knightly.
Chairs: Dmitri Moltchanov and Thomas Michael Bohnert (Siemens, DE)
After IEEE CCNC'08 and IEEE ICC'08, the IEEE Broadband Wireless Access
Workshop is co-located with IEEE Globecom'08. The workshop covers the
whole spectrum of BWA topics and has a proven that it attracts academia
and industry to the same extent. The highlight of this edition is the
keynote by Edward W. Knightly from Rice Univ, Texas. |

International Workshop on Space Platforms: Research, Applications, Vision
Chair: Niovi Pavlidou (Aristotle University of
Thessaloniki)
The IWASP'08 workshop aims at providing a forum for leading actors from
academia, industry and government worldwide to illustrate the potential
of HALE Platforms and MAE UAVs (Medium Altitude Endurance Unmanned
Aerial Vehicles) not only in today’s communication technologies, but in
a growing number of civil applications, such as navigation and
positioning, earth observation, remote sensing, and more. |
