Distinguished papers accepted and presented in CoNET-07, will be invited to contribute in the book Cooperative Wireless Communications, Auerbach Publications, Taylor&Francis Group. Scope and Topics: ================= Cooperative wireless communications and networking is emerging as a promising technology to enhance system performance by sharing resources among wireless nodes. With cooperation at all layers of the protocol stack, the wireless network can achieve higher throughput, higher system reliability, higher energy efficiency, lower bit-error rate, and smaller packet loss rate. A variety of research in recent years have actively focused on design, simulation, modeling, and applying cooperative communications in wireless ad hoc, mesh, and sensor networks, etc. International standards organizations have been initialized various activities to apply cooperation mechanisms in the wireless LAN, PAN and MAN. For instance, the IEEE 802.16j working group is actively calling for contributions for relay metropolitan networks. The idea of cooperative wireless communications and networking can be tracked back to the work of the theoretic properties of relay channels. By sharing antennas in a multi-user environment, single-antenna wireless devices enable a virtual multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system that allows them to achieve transmit diversity, and hence obtain advantages of MIMO with reduced size, cost, and complexity of the hardware/software. Upon cooperation at physical, MAC, network, and application layer, various cooperative signaling methods are widely explored and many new mechanisms are under development with respects to routing, medium access, location management, scheduling, energy management, and so on. This workshop intends to bring together researchers, engineers, and students to present new results, describe work in progress, and explore relationships among their diverse approaches. Topics covered by the workshop will include, but are not limited to, the following: . Cooperative diversity . Virtual MIMO . Channel capacity . Cooperative channel coding . Cognitive radio networks . Cooperating services . Grid Computing . Middleware . Performance analysis, simulation and experiment . Services, applications and systems . Testbed, prototype, practical system and case studies . Resource management . Mobility management . Energy management . Security management . Cross-layer cooperation and optimization . Cooperative and distributed relaying . Relay networking .

Multimedia semantic characteristics, Human Interpretation of audiovisual information, extraction and usage of semantic information, coding standards and its interaction with networking, mobility and security protocols are research issues that need to be carefully examined when proposing new solutions. Many are the applications that will be enabled by the new standards for mobile networking, such as triple services for mobile networks, digital television, video streaming, interactive gaming, navigation services, context aware services, and immersive communications in virtual environments. The efficient delivery of multimedia applications and services over emerging diverse and heterogeneous wireless networks is a challenging research objective. The research effort for the 3G/4G vision of interworking among heterogeneous technologies to achieve multimedia session continuity, retain multimedia QoS characteristics etc., amplifies the need to evaluate the conditions and restrictions under which delivery of such services can be accomplished. Within this scope, MobiMedia is intended to provide a unique international forum for researchers from industry and academia, working in multimedia coding, and mobile networking fields to study new applications, solutions, and standards. Original unpublished contributions are solicited that can improve the knowledge and practice in the integrated design of efficient technologies and the relevant provision of advanced mobile multimedia applications. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Multimedia semantic characteristics in wireless, mobile and ubiquitous environments * Multimedia QoS in wireless networks * Extraction and usage of semantic information * Performance evaluation of multimedia services * Multimedia Retrieval in wireless and mobile environments * Mechanisms supporting triple-play services in emerging wireless networks * Scalable Coding of multimedia in wireless and mobile networks * Cross-Layer techniques for multimedia communications over wireless networks * Joint source-channel coding * Multimedia services over ad-hoc and wireless sensor networks * Rate Control and Adaptation for wireless multimedia * P2P multimedia streaming in wireless and mobile networks * Transport protocols for multimedia in emerging wireless networks * Mobile Content Delivery Networks General Co-Chairs Tasos Dagiuklas Dept. of Telecommunication Syst. & Networks TEI of Mesolonghi, Nafpaktos, Greece Email: ntan(a)teimes.gr Nicolas Sklavos Dept. of Telecommunication Syst. & Networks TEI of Mesolonghi, Nafpaktos, Greece Email: NSklavos(a)ieee.org Technical Co-Chairs Magda El-Zarki Dept. of Information and Computer Science University of California at Davis Irvine, CA, USA Email: elzarki(a)uci.edu Rahim Tafazolli Center for Communication System Research University of Surrey Guildford, Surrey, UK Email: R.Tafazolli(a)surrey.ac.uk Important dates: - Submission of extended summaries: May 18, 2007 - Notification of acceptance: June 15, 2007 - Submission of camera-ready papers: July 2, 2007 Students award and grants: Five student prizes will be awarded to the best papers authored by full time students as first author. _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc
