Wireless Battle Mesh v6 - Call for Talks Announcement

(15th of April - 21st of April 2013, Aalborg, Denmark)

=============================================================

Any progress, idea, project, etc. to be presented to the Community Networks? Lucky you! Wireless Battle Mesh v6 (WBMv6) is at hand and it's time to bring together the agenda. Following the approach of arranging the agenda beforehand started in v4 and continued in v5, we open the proposals submission period.

Types of Talks
==============

Whatever suits you the best: presentation, workshop, panel, demo, etc.


Topics
======

Despite the WBM running routing protocols in its veins, we also welcome proposals unrelated to routing protocols as long as you think they are of the interest to Community Networks enthusiasts. Obviously, proposals related to routing protocols have higher priority in case of an excess of proposals.

Previous years' agenda also should be able to provide some insights: http://battlemesh.org/BattleMeshV4/Agenda http://battlemesh.org/BattleMeshV5/Agenda

About the Wireless Battle Mesh
==============================

The Wireless Battle of the Mesh is an event that aims at bringing together people from across Europe to test the performance of different routing protocols for ad-hoc networks, like Babel, B.A.T.M.A.N., BMX6, OLSR, 802.11s and Static Routing.

It is a tournament with a social character. If you are a mesh networking enthusiast, community networking activist, or have an interest in mesh networks you might want to check this out !

The goal of the Wireless Battle Mesh events is to set-up hands-on testbed for each available mesh routing protocol with a standard test procedure for the different mesh networks. During the different WBM events, similar hardware and software configuration will be used based on the OpenWRT Board-Support-Package and packages for each protocol implementation. The WBM events are also a great opportunity to develop testing tools for PHY/MAC radio layers (drivers, scripts and PHY analyzers) .
