| Publisher Description: The third international workshop on AD-HOC NetwOrks and Wireless was held in the downtown Vancouver facilities of Simon Fraser University. The ?rst ADHOC-NOW was held in 2002 at the Fields Institute in Toronto and the s- ond in 2003 in Montreal. Its purpose is to create a collaborative forum between Mathematicians, ComputerScientistsandEngineersforresearchintheemerging ?eld of ad-hoc networks. The number of submissions exceeded all expectations this year. Over 150 papers were submitted of which 22 regular and 8 short papers were accepted for presentation and inclusion in the conference proceedings.
