2014 Underwater Communications and Networking (UComms).

Annotation To intelligently select underwater communication and networking standards, it must be possible to rank the performance of candidate coding schemes and protocols for realistic topologies, applications and environments The cost and logistic complexity of conducting extensive trials at sea over a wide range of parameters inevitably steers interest towards modelling and simulation We therefore need to first develop physics based simulation, emulation and hardware in the loop technologies to estimate performance These must be validated with select at sea comparisons, which may include low cost internet connected testbeds This conference aims to bring together key people in UW communications networking to review the state of the art and share understanding of performance constraints and trade offs with a view to catalysing consensus on standards for interoperability.

Ad Hoc Networks

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Ad Hoc Networks, ADHOCNETS 2016, held in Ottawa, Canada, September 26-17, 2016. The 34 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. The papers provide visions, trends, challenges and opportunities in the area of ad hoc networking and emerging applications. The conference also features two workshops on ad hoc network security and vulnerability, and convergence of wireless directional network systems and software defined networking, respectively.
