--------------------------------------------------------------------------
9th International Conference on 'High-capacity Optical Networks and
Emerging Technologies'
December 12-14, 2012, Istanbul, Turkey
Global Optical Networks enable the High-speed Internet by utilizing
various photonic- and wireless- networks, lambda grids, and fiber-optic
links over the vast landscape of our planet. These are the workhorse for
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) from the architectural,
security, signal transport and application perspectives. Photonics and
Optoelectronics are the disciplines that have emerged from the
"fundamental light-matter interaction" and its engineering applications.
At the core level, it starts from fundamental principles of optics and
optical materials and encompasses the micro/nano-fabrication of
semiconductor devices, components, and functional modules and
sub-assemblies. On the application side, such devices enable the ICT and
constitute physical layer of contemporary infrastructure.
IEEE and IEEE ComSoc are technical co-sponsors of HONET 2012; the 9th
International Conference hosted by KHAS University will be held in
Istanbul, Turkey. HONET has now become a full conference serving an
emerging region with a broad global participation. It contains
multi-tracks in ICT, e-applications, and emerging technologies e.g.,
nanotechnology for ICT, and energy-harvesting devices and materials. HONET
will also include focused workshops and specialized short-courses
co-located with the main conference. HONET 2012 will span over three days
of technical and visionary presentations as well as industrial
show/exhibits. It will include keynote addresses and various plenary
sessions in areas consistent with the theme and objectives. As a part of
its legacy, the major objective of the 9th HONET as International
Conference is to bring together participants from US, Turkey (host),
Bosporus and SAMENA (South-Asia, Middle-East, & North-Africa) regions, as
well as other world-wide researchers, educators, students, and industry
professionals for sharing the knowledge and experience and furthering
collaborations. The HONET 2012 thematic focus expanded to include "Role of
ICT in Development". HONET has now a broader appeal of "Emerging/Enabling
Technologies", covering photonic-devices, lasers, transceivers, routers,
optical amplifiers, and other complementary communication technologies as
well as optics and nanotechnologies in medicine and information
processing. It covers nanophotonics for high-speed internet from
building-block components to energy efficiency, e-science and
e-healthcare; cloud computing, network security and enabling technologies.

PAPERS
Authors are invited to submit R&D and visionary papers presenting original
research work related to the practice and theory of "High-capacity Optical
Networks & Emerging /Enabling Technologies". Related proposals for
workshops and short-courses will also be considered. All submissions must
describe original and pertinent research, development, and future vision.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
Internet Mobility, 4 G Services and OWA beyond LTE
Green ICT-energy efficient devices & networks
Optical networks for storage, grids & cloud computing
Convergence of metro/optical access
Lasers, Solar Cells, and LEDs
Vehicular and Avionics networks/Hybrid Networks
Network security, survivability and reliability
e-Applications (education, medicine, social networks)
Nanotechnologies for ICT e-Applications
Multiplexing (WDM, OTDM, OCDM) and ROADMs
Traffic engineering Optical Switching and Routing
Optical Anatomical and Physiological Sensing and Imaging
These topics should be discussed in terms of research findings, concepts,
state-of-the-art, standards, implementations, developments, field
trials/experiments, educational goals and new applications. Submitted or
substantially similar papers must not be under review currently for any
other publication. The received papers will be peer reviewed using "IEEE
standards and criteria". Authors should note that only the accepted and
presented papers will be eligible for final proceedings. The accepted but
unregistered and/or un-shepherd/un-presented submissions will be omitted
from all proceedings.
WORKSHOPS: following topics are suggested but other areas can also be
considered.
Beyond LTE- Open Wireless Architecture (OWA) 100Gbps and Beyond
Technologies & Services and FTTX Networks
e-Health Care Nanophotonics and Harvesting Solar Energy
Further updates on the workshops, poster papers, conference papers and
program can be found at http://honet-ict.org and its companion websites.
Instructions for Authors
All paper submissions will be handled electronically through EasyChairTM.
Authors should prepare PDF-compliant version of their papers not exceeding
five (5) double-column pages. Paper format/ template with font sizes and
the guidelines, and copyright form are available at the HONET homepage.
The first page of the paper must contain an informative title, abstract,
and name(s) of author(s) with respective affiliations, postal address(es),
phone/fax numbers, and email address(es). The corresponding author must be
clearly identified. Additionally, five keywords relevant to the research
paper or thematic areas must also be listed (as per template). All
submissions will be peer-reviewed, and the accepted papers will be
eligible for conference proceedings and in (TBA), and high-quality papers
will be considered for special issues of professional societies' Journals
relevant to the topics (Approval Pending).
All HONET papers must be submitted at
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=honet2012 but the workshop and
short courses proposal should be sent to TPC and General Chairs. All
deadlines are 11:59 pm US Eastern Standard Time (EST).
