==========
SCOPE
==========
Authors are invited to submit papers presenting technical challenges, comprehensive in-depth tutorial surveys, standardization efforts and new research results related to the theory or practice of communications and networking in the context of vehicular systems. All submissions must be original contributions not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Overview of state-of-the-art of vehicular communication technologies, standards and open challenges
- Architectures and protocols for VCS
- "Green" Intelligent Transportation Systems
- Cross-layer design and optimization for vehicular networks
- Cooperative paradigms for vehicular communication protocols and safety applications
- Channel access management and resource allocation procedures in VCS
- Performance analysis and theoretical foundations of vehicular communications
- Simulation of large-scale VCS and integration of traffic-network simulators
- Mobility models and vehicular traffic models
- Application scenarios and new services for Intelligent Transportation Systems
- Security, encryption and privacy for vehicular systems
- Performance, scalability, reliability and efficiency of VCS
- Human-machine interaction in safety-related applications
- VCS support for enhanced navigation, infotainment and comfort applications
- Routing, addressing and transport layer in VCS
- Integration of IP protocols into the vehicular scenario
- QoS and real-time support in VCS
- Cognitive radio in VCS
- Physical layer aspects and propagation models
- Data dissemination and delay-tolerant networking techniques for VCS
- Real-world experiences and testbeds
- Standardisation efforts and public policies ========================== PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES ==========================
Authors are kindly invited to submit their manuscripts through EDAS Conference Management System.
Manuscripts should be written in English and not exceed 8 pages (2 additional pages are possible at extra charge). They should be prepared according to IEEE submission guidelines:
http://www.ieee.org/web/publications/authors/transjnl/index.html
After writing the manuscript it should be converted to .pdf and submitted in this format.
All submissions must be original contributions not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal. All accepted papers will be included in the WiMob 2012 main conference proceedings and published by IEEE. Full conference registration will allow the authors of accepted papers to attend the main conference and any organized workshop. The workshop paper will need to have at least one author register at the FULL conference rate.
