The final and hard deadline for NEW2AN 2008 and ruSMART 2008 is April 21, 2008 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 8th International Conference on Next Generation Teletraffic and Wired/Wireless Advanced Networking NEW2AN 2008 http://www.new2an.org/
September 01 - 05, 2008 St.Petersburg, Russia
co-located with The 1st conference on Smart Spaces ruSMART http://www.new2an.org/rusmart
CALL FOR PAPERS
About the Conference
Next-generation mobile networks will evolve out of existing wired and wireless networks of different nature by means of convergence, fusion and mutual penetration; next-generation multimedia services in turn pose new requirements and challenges on treatment of traffic within communication systems – a certain degree of multilayer co-operation has to be achieved. This forms a framework on harmonization of results obtained separately in different areas of network research like network performance evaluation, architecture and protocol design, and low layer network design. The conference goal is in the identification, investigation and integration of new algorithms, approaches, architectures, methods and mechanisms to enable proper and efficient operation of a next-generation IP-based wireless network. Special emphasis will be given to next-generation traffic issues, it indeed remains true that much uncertainty surrounds the future traffic features and volumes, mainly because of converged type of traffic resulted from converged network operation under converged services and applications. Moreover, wireless access networks and their interaction shall be widely examined and addressed throughout the conference. The history of NEW2AN dates back to 1993, today it is an established conference featured by proceedings published by Springer LNCS and distinguished invited speakers.
The NEW2AN and ruSMART will be held in St. Petersburg, Russia - the meeting point of East and West. Through its stunning architecture and wonderful art galleries and museums, among a number of other attractions, the wealth of history of East and West can be seen and felt in this beautiful city.

About the Conference
Recent advances in the field of wireless networks have moved them beyond their traditional areas of application to a much broader scope. They form a space where users can access a number of wireless technologies to interact with various services. Similarly, existent and future services form a space providing an unlimited set of possibilities ranging from browsing to interactive video conversations. All these layers form a smart environment that can harmonize a number of technologies at each architectural layer to provide the best user experience.
This conference will explore and explain the scope and challenges of smart spaces. In this regard, the conference aims to bring together research professionals from diverse fields including but not limited to wireless communication, ubiquitous networks, software development, multimedia, services, and business in both academia and industry.
The 1st Russian Conference on Smart Spaces ruSMART 2008 will take place on September 5th, 2008. It will be co-located with the 8th International Conference Next Generation Teletraffic and Wired/Wireless Advanced Networking NEW2AN 2008.
The ruSMART 2008 will be held in St. Petersburg, Russia - the meeting point of East and West. Through its stunning architecture and wonderful art galleries and museums, among a number of other attractions, the wealth of history of East and West can be seen and felt in this beautiful city.
