24 Oct '03

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] Final Call for Papers Date: Thu, 23 Oct 2003 11:57:19 -0400 From: Ahmad, Aftab <aahmad(a)nsu.edu> To: <tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu> *International Journal of Communication Systems* /Special Issue on/ *_"QoS Support and Service Differentiation in Wireless Networks"_* /Tentative Publication Date: April 2004 Full paper//s s//ubmission deadline: //01 November 2003/ /Reviews due: /15 January 2004 Camera-ready copies due: 15 February 2004 Wireless access technology has created a new dimension for user access over the past few years. This has opened up a number of issues, one of which is QoS. The rapid adoption of wireless and IP based applications has created a strong driving force towards ubiquitous data services. A common understanding of the next generation of wireless systems that will offer such services is that they will involve multiple technologies and concepts that are still evolving. A major challenge in this heterogeneous environment is to provide proper QoS for mobile and stationary users using both customized and access agnostic applications and the need to analyze latency as a function of traffic profiles. The goal of this Special Issue is to collect high-quality scientific contributions discussing QoS strategies and tradeoffs at the Physical, Data Link, Network and Transport layers, for both already deployed as well as innovative/emerging wireless technologies. Papers reporting original, unpublished results on following topics are solicited: - Service differentiation and current enhancements in wireless LANs. - QoS management and capacity optimization in multi-access, multi-service networks. - Resource management for QoS-sensitive services. - Local versus end-to-end QoS provisioning, including QoS issues in mixed cellular/WLAN environment. - Software implementation and its robustness for QoS in wireless networks. - Performance models for multi-class wireless networks with emphasis on latency, throughput and goodput for various offered traffic profiles. - Architectures and Protocols for QoS provisioning in multi-access multi-service networks * * *Submission Instructions* Only electronic submissions are welcomed.

You may also go to: http://www.comsoc.org/pubs/pcm/cfpwireless1004.pdf Best Regards, Theodore Zahariadis -------------------------------------------------------------- IEEE Wireless Communications Magazine Special Issue on Applications and Services for the B3G/4G era The path towards 4G networks incorporates a number of critical trends. Operators have already made huge investments in 2G, 2G+ and 3G technologies. Moreover, future wireless infrastructures will have to compete with multiple successfully deployed wired and wireless communications' systems. Thus, the 4G era has to provide really break-through technologies in order to persuade for its necessity. Innovations in air interface technology, enhancements in signalling and transport protocols, end-to-end QoS, worldwide seamless mobility of terminals and personal bubbles will lead to next generation wireless networks. Research on all these areas has been initiated, and it is expected to provide impressive results in a couple of years. Besides the system and network infrastructure advances, innovative steps are also required in the applications and services domain. Evolution towards 4G is expected to be similar to what happened to the Internet: from a limited application environment to an integral part of average person's life. Wireless services will shift from voice to packet data and users will become more accustomed to conducting wireless business and financial transactions. Many future wireless applications have already been considered. Mobile Internet, mobile multiparty videoconference, mobile office, mobile VPNs, mobile tele-presence, mobile e-commerce, etc. are among the foreseen future applications, but none has already convinced that it is the "killer" one. This special issue of IEEE Wireless Communications aims to describe the future service creation, execution and provisioning environments, frameworks and platforms, trends in the direction towards new added value applications and services, applications and services that will enable new business models and new ways of working anywhere, anytime and in any context, and share this vision with the magazines' audience. In more details, this special issue seeks unpublished papers in that tackle the following areas: · Applications and services for mobile users and professionals · Interoperable mobile/ wireless technologies and convergence of fixed and mobile communication infrastructures. · Open, context and location aware middleware for heterogeneous mobile networks · Service creation environments for B3G/4G mobile/wireless systems · Innovative, adaptive and self-configuring mobile and wireless applications · Adaptive, polymorphic and reconfigurable systems for mobile environments · Applications for mobile PANs · End-to-end QoS issues for heterogeneous mobile networks · Security and privacy of mobile/wireless systems · Power management and control algorithms Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts as a Postscript or PDF email attachment to Dr. Theodore Zahariadis, highlighting the reference author of the paper.
