Advanced Mobility Management and QoS protocols for Wireless Internet
The next generation of networking systems will be data-centric where mobility and QoS support are the two critical issues. The convergence of telecom, datacom and mobile world has created a multi-service, multi-platform network of the new world: namely mobile wireless Internet. User mobility has created a new dimension in many research areas, including inter network and inter service roaming, mobility management, Quality of Service (QoS), resource management, network architecture and protocols, mobile multimedia applications and services, etc. New wireless network architectures are being proposed to cope with diverse applications, levels of mobility, and traffic types. Advanced mobility management techniques will support seamless IP connection across different networks, and provide end-to-end QoS support. A QoS-enable multi-service-based high-speed backbone network is required to carry large amounts of packet-switched data for both wireline and wireless access.
This special issue of the JSAC will be devoted to the Advanced Architectures, Protocols, and Applications for wireless mobile Internet, in particular, mobility management, QoS provisioning and the interaction between the two. We seek original, previously unpublished, and completed contributions, not currently under review by another journal. Contributions emphasizing recent advances and new research directions are strongly encouraged. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Network Architectures and protocols for wireless Internet * Integration and internetworking of wired and wireless networks * Inter network and inter service roaming solutions * Interoperability in multi-provider access networks * Inter/intra domain QoS protocols and mechanisms * Mobility management, in particular, QoS-aware mobility management * Related standards (3GPP, MWIF, 3G.IP, ETSI, IETF,...) * Multimedia applications and services for different networks and user terminals * System architecture, protocol stack and reference model
Prospective authors should prepare manuscripts in accordance with JSAC policies, and submit four copies of their manuscript to one of the guest editors. Papers may also be submitted electronically by e-mail to jsac2003@ece.gatech.edu
Important dates are the following: Manuscript submission: Acceptance notification: Final manuscript due: Publication: June 1, 2003 October 1, 2003 December 1, 2003 2nd Quarter, 2004
