First IEEE Workshop on advanced experimental activities on wireless networks and systems
EXPONWIRELESS - 2006
http://netgroup.iet.unipi.it/EXPONWIRELESS/
26 June 2006 - Niagara-Falls, Buffalo, NY, USA
in conjunction with IEEE WoWMoM 2006 ( http://ieee-wowmom.cse.buffalo.edu/)
-------------------------
CALL FOR PAPERS
Wireless networks represent a challenging and ever growing research area. In these systems the interactions among the different network layers are very complex and their effects on the overall performance are not easy to accurately identify. Experimental activities involving the development of systems and device prototypes and the collection and analysis of measurements from actual networks can provide an insight on the behaviour of such systems in realistic environments, which can be beneficial for understanding how cross-layer interactions impact in practice the overall performance, for deriving realistic simulation models, for analyzing particular phenomena and evaluating algorithms and protocols, and for exploring the design choices in building actual wireless networks. Such activities are pivotal for researchers, developers, service managers and providers, as well as for end users involved in the evolution of these networks.
EXPONWIRELESS aims at bringing together all the aspects related to experimental achievements on wireless networks, creating a forum where researchers, vendors, providers and users can exchange ideas on past experience, current requirements, and future visions, useful for the development of new protocols, algorithms, devices and systems.
High quality papers discussing original and innovative experimental activities on wireless networks are solicited for submission. The main topics of the workshop are (but are not limited to):
. Device prototypes for wireless BANs, PANs, LANs, and MANs . QoS for real-time voice and video in wireless networks . Differentiated services in wireless multimedia networks . IP-based multimedia services over wireless networks . Multi-hop Multi-radio wireless mesh networks . Handoff and mobility management in beyond-3G systems . Seamless internetworking . Systems and methods for collecting and analyzing measurements in wireless networks . Architectures for beyond-3G systems . Energy-efficient protocols and power management algorithms . Wireless security . Wireless ad-hoc networks . Wireless sensor networks . Wireless vehicular networks . Prototype implementation of wireless/mobile networks and systems . Wireless/Mobile applications . Middleware platforms for wireless/mobile environments . Software technologies and systems . Location services . Positioning and Tracking Technologies
