Welcome to GC-CNIT 2007 |
Welcome to the
2007 Global Congress on Communications, Networking and Information Technology (GC-CNIT 2007). This event is intended to represent a major forum for researchers, professionals and students from all over the world to meet in the beautiful and culturally rich city of Amman in Jordan to present their latest research results and to exchange new ideas and practical experiences.
ScopeGC-CNIT 2007 main scope includes, but is not limited to the following areas: Digital Communication Systems; Multimedia Communications; Communications and Computer Networks; Communication and Information Technology; GC-CNIT 2007 is planned to feature special sessions, keynote talks and tutorial sessions by leading experts, paper presentations, poster shows, demo shows, discussion panels, as well as other interesting technical activities.
JordanComing to Jordan represents a unique opportunity to witness the embrace of history and future. As small in area as it is, Jordan has a rich history spanning thousands of years, a history that a tourist can only admire. Places like Petra and the Dead Sea are only examples of the many one-of-a-kind places to visit in Jordan. On top of all that, Jordan, as a peaceful country in a turbulent area, enjoys extreme levels of safety and security. Jordanian people are internationally known for generosity, hospitality and cultural awareness and tolerance.AmmanAmman, the beautiful capital of Jordan, is a living model of a large and modern city that has all kinds of tourist attractions. |

Design Issues and Information Retrieval in Sensor Networks |
Summary | | The study of sensor networks is very peculiar and intriguing. The objective of this tutorial is to start with basics of Cellular infrastructure; extend to the functionality of ad hoc networks work; and then fully understand issues in designing Sensor Networks. We bring out many underlying interdependencies and cross-layer interactions in such networks. We explain the impact of coverage area of each sensor as well as establish communications requirements among adjacent sensors. We consider the energy consumed by a sensor unit in performing associated functionalities and explain different ways of optimizing energy consumption. We consider several possible applications of sensor networks in many civilian areas and explore their potential usefulness. Then we concentrate on examining ways of collecting sensed data from individual sensors. We look at the protocols used for medium access, link layer and routing layer and understand relative advantages and disadvantages. We also explore in both flat and hierarchical topologies and investigate how information could be effectively retrieved from such a sensor deployment. The readers will not only understand and position themselves in this hot area of sensor networks, but will also able to develop new capabilities, enhance skills, share expertise, and consolidate their knowledge. |
