**************** Nano-Net 2008 *********************
CALL FOR PAPERS
3rd International Conference on Nano-Networks
Boston, USA, Sept 15-17, 2008
http://www.nanonets.org
Sponsors: Create-Net, ICST, EU (IST-FET), ENIAC
Industry Sponsor: STMicroelectronics

SCOPE: The Nano-Net conference positions itself at the intersection of
two worlds, namely, emerging nanotechnologies on one-side, and network/
communication theory on the other side. The standing question that
this conference will address is: What are the new communication
paradigms that derive from the transition from micro- to nano-scale
devices? The related degrees of freedom and constraints associated
with these new technologies will change our notions about efficient
network and system design. Nano-Net provides a multidisciplinary forum
for the discussion of new techniques in modeling, design, simulation,
and fabrication of network and communication systems at the nano-
scale.
PAPERS: The conference invites original technical papers that have not
been previously published and are not currently under review for
publication elsewhere. Contributions addressing all subjects
pertaining to nanotechnology & networking are solicited. Suggested
topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Nano-Robotics
Communication systems and networking protocols for sub-inch robotic
systems, including low-bandwidth coordination schemes for nano-robot
teams and range and bearing devices for inter-robot relative
positioning
* Bio-nano Applications
Bio-Micro/Nanoelectronics, Molecular scale chemical and biosensors,
Bio-MEMS technology, Data and power management, Nano-scale and
molecular communications and information processing, Information
theory analysis of biological communications, Molecular Computation
using molecular cells, Chemical computing
* Applications for Nano-Networks
Wireless nanoscale transmitters and receivers, nano-sensors and
actuators, nanorobotics, medical and in-vivo imaging and sensing, lab
on a chip, swarm micro and nano-inspection, embedding sensing, etc...
* Modeling, Simulation, Standards and Architectural Aspects of Nano-
Networks
Physical characterization/modeling of nano-scale interconnects and
devices, Fault-tolerant and reliability of nano-devices, Self-healing
properties of nano-networks, CAD flows for NoCs and MP-SoC platforms,
NoC performance and trade-off analysis, Energy efficiency, Bio-
inspired aspects
* Novel Information and Graph Theory Aspects of Nano-Networks
Network architectures and topologies, Statistical mechanics approach
to nano-communications, Routing/addressing issues in nano-networks,
Nano-coding, Applications of complex network theory, Self-organization
in nano-scale systems, Modeling of Nano/Bio Communication Channels
* Device Physics and Interconnects
Nano-technologies and devices for on-chip interconnects (CNTs,
graphene nano-ribbons, semic., metallic and DNA-templated nanowires),
Molecular, optical and wireless interconnects, Interconnects for non-
charge-based devices, emerging 3D-interconnect technologies
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: Prospective authors are encouraged to submit
a PDF version of the full paper in English. Papers are limited to 5
two-column pages, in a font no smaller than 10-points. Style guides
and further information are available on the conference website:
http://www.nanonets.org. Presentation will be either oral or in poster
format, as deemed appropriate by the Technical Program Committee.
PUBLICATION: All submitted papers will be subject to a rigorous peer-
review. Accepted papers will be published by Springer in the Nano-Net
Conference Proceedings, and made available online through Springer
Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNICST). Selected high-quality
papers with a strong nanoscale device component will be reviewed for a
Special Issue of the IEEE Transactions on Nanotechnology, in an
extended version.
WORKSHOP & TUTORIAL PROPOSALS: Proposals for Special Sessions and
Tutorials are encouraged. Potential Workshop and Tutorial organizers
should submit a proposal of at most 5 pages, including scope/
motivation of the session/tutorial, list of invited papers (still
subject to peer-review) and short-bio of the organizer(s). Workshops
should be submitted by e-mail to: goel@albany.edu, tutorials to:
liyun@research.ge.com.
