========================================================


The recent proliferation of sensor-rich portable devices is enabling novel
communication paradigms for users and contributing to the implementation of
the ubiquitous computing and networking vision. Opportunistic networking
represents a key communication paradigm for this vision. Either as a
standalone communication mode or as a complement to infrastructure-based
communication, opportunistic networking leverages the mobility of end users
to enhance their ability to communicate in the absence of reliable
end-to-end connectivity. Opportunistic networking opens up many
possibilities but also poses countless new challenges. The goal of the AOC
2013 workshop is to serve as a forum for researchers, professionals,
application developers, and other experts from both academia and industry
to exchange new ideas, discuss new solutions, and share their experiences.
As with previous editions, this year's workshop is particularly interested
in novel research directions, such as service composition techniques,
co-existence with infrastructure networks, and insights from game theory,
social networking analysis, and cognitive psychology. The workshop will
solicit original papers addressing theoretical and practical aspects of
autonomic and opportunistic communications as well as papers describing
prototype implementations and deployments.


Topics of interest for AOC 2013 include, but are not limited to:
*Routing, transport, and reliability issues
*Techniques for data dissemination and replication
*Applications and middleware support, mobile social networking applications
*Mobility models and statistical analysis of mobility traces
*Context and social awareness mechanisms and algorithms
*Co-existence of opportunistic networks with infrastructure mobile wireless
networks
*Service composition in autonomic and opportunistic networks
*Cognition-driven information processing and decision making
*Performance modelling, scaling laws, and fundamental limits for autonomic
and opportunistic communications
*Game-theoretic insights to the operation of autonomic and opportunistic
networks
*Participatory and urban sensing in autonomic and opportunistic networks
*Trust, security, and reputation
*Autonomic and opportunistic communication testbeds and prototypes,
measurement data from real experiments
*Socio-economic models for autonomic and opportunistic communications


Instruction for Submission:

Papers should neither have been published elsewhere nor being currently
under review by another conference or journal. Manuscripts are limited to 6
pages, single spacing, double column, and must strictly adhere to the
template format. Guidelines on paper submission and formatting are
available at http://aoc2013.dti.supsi.ch/submission.html.

Accepted papers will appear in the symposium proceedings published by IEEE.
There will be no separate workshop registration, as one single registration
will cover both conference and workshops participation. At least one author
of each accepted paper is required and present his/her work at the workshop.

Extended versions of workshop selected papers will be considered for
possible fast track publication on the Computer Communications Journal
(Elsevier).
