Dear Colleagues,

We are organizing a technical session on "Challenged Networks for Humanitarian Relief" during the International Conference on Wireless Technologies for Humanitarian Relief (ACWR2011) scheduled in Kerala, India December 18-21, 2011.

We are seeking top quality submissions related to challenged networks (i.e., Delay-Tolerant, Opportunistic, Mesh and Sensor) for humanitarian relief or benefiting mankind in general.

We are soliciting at least five to ten submissions from which the TPC will select the top three to four papers. If you are interested, please send us an intent to submit with an abstract by ***AUGUST 15, 2011*** with the subject [ACWR2011]. You will then be able to submit by ***SEPTEMBER 15, 2011*** at http://www.amrita.edu/acwr2011 . Submissions must be unpublished, original, and not more than 10 pages in single column (see format at http://amrita.edu/acwr2011/docs/format%20for%20submission.doc ).

Eventually, note that the conference is sponsored by IEEE Communications society, ACM SIGCOMM, SIGMOBILE, and SIGMM as well. The conference proceedings will be published by ACM and IEEE, and the best papers will be published by Elsevier’s Ad Hoc Networks Journal and Pervasive and Mobile Computing (PMC) Journal.

Looking forward to your submission,
