********************************************************************

We are faced with an era where the widespread use of small portable
wireless devices and wireless technologies are building the pervasive
vision. This pervaded world has generated new communication paradigms:
autonomic and opportunistic communications.
  Communication among devices in a pervasive environment can happen if
the devices can communicate autonomously, and manage their own evolution
and configuration changes in the network, without explicit user or
administrator action. In a pervasive world, even in the absence of any
connectivity infrastructure mobile devices can communicate using the
connection "opportunities" that arise due to mobility.
  The goal of this workshop is to provide a forum between the autonomic
and opportunistic communication communities to exchange ideas, discuss
solutions, and share experiences among researchers, professionals, and
application developers both from industry and academia. Original papers
addressing both theoretical and practical aspects of autonomic
communications and computing are solicited. Papers describing prototype
implementations and deployment are particularly welcome.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

* Architecture and models for autonomic and opportunistic communications
* Tools and techniques for designing, analyzing and building autonomic
and opportunistic networks
* Adaptive security for self protection of networks
* Economic, biological and social models used for autonomic and
opportunistic communications
* Mobility models for opportunistic networking
* Novel management techniques for autonomic and opportunistic communications
* Sensing, monitoring and measurements for self-managing networks
* Advanced technologies for enabling autonomic and opportunistic
communications
* Autonomic and opportunistic communication testbeds and measurements


PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
=================================
Papers should neither have been published elsewhere nor currently
under review by another conference or journal.  Guidelines on paper
submission and formatting are available at http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/aoc2007/.
Accepted papers will appear in the symposium proceedings published by
IEEE. Extended versions of workshop selected papers will be considered
for possible fast track publication on the Pervasive and Mobile
Computing Journal (Elsevier).
