	Session 1: Opening + keynote + abstract presentations
13.30 - 13.35h	Welcome and Opening Words
13.35 - 14.15h	Keynote Presentation: Prof. Dr. Nils Aschenbruck, University of Osnabrück, Germany Ad-hoc Networking -- Blue Sky Research forever?
	Abstract: Blue sky research is scientific research in domains where real applications and markets seem not to be existing. Some people see ad-hoc networking as one of the domains that have this "problem". On the one hand, they may be right. Mobile Ad-hoc Networks are standardized for more than 15 years now (cf. RFC-2501). But we have not seen products that really dominate the markets. On the other hand, there are products, solutions, and still open challenges. From the research side, blue skies are needed for real innovation. Thus, a domain with plenty blue sky seems to be great. The keynote will review the ad-hoc networking blue sky phenomena by surveying selected application domains as well as products that have made it to market. Then, the possible reasons, challenges, and solutions concerning blue skies are presented. Finally, some research challenges and future directions for ad-hoc networking are highlighted.
