2nd IEEE International Workshop on Convergence of Heterogeneous Wireless Systems (CON-WIRE 2012) (http://conwire.it.teithe.gr http://conwire.it.teithe.gr/)
June 11-15, 2012, Ottawa, Canada
organized in association with the IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC 2012)
Overview Future Internet envisions the synergy among heterogeneous wireless communications will co-exist providing the end user the ³flexibility and choice², to improve his/her quality of life. The integration of heterogeneous networks in multi-access and multi-operator environment is revolutionizing the ICT area, introducing new opportunities, better communication channels and an enhanced quality of provided applications and services. In this environment, a user is able to connect to a number of heterogeneous RATs (Radio Access Technologies), either covering the same, or complementing geographical areas. These networks can be macro-cellular, WLANs, femto-cellular or even ad-hoc. In this environment, seamless mobility is coupled according to user preferences, enabling mobile users to be ³Always Best Connected² (ABC) so that Quality of Experience is optimised and maintained.
Topics CONWIRE 2012 will collect latest research ideas and issues on the convergence among heterogeneous wireless systems in Future Internet. We solicit papers that cover a variety of topics including, but not limited to:
* Wireless Network Architectures * Middleware for wireless converged networks. * Wireless Convergence in Future Internet Initiatives (e.g. FIRE, GENI etc) * IP-based Mobility Management * Efficient Handover Algorithms and RRM in heterogeneous wireless networks * Cross-Layer Schemes * Modeling, performance evaluation, simulation, and optimization techniques * Wireless network testbeds and applications * QoE in wireless converged networks
Contribution format The authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing original, previously unpublished, complete research, not currently under review by another conference or journal, addressing state-of-the-art research and development. All submissions should be written in English with a maximum paper length of five (5) printed pages (10-point font) including figures.
Paper submission can be found in: http://edas.info/N11447
Schedule * Full Paper Submission: Dec. 20, 2011 * Notification of Acceptance: Jan. 23, 2012 * Camera-ready version + Author Registration: Apr. 1, 2012
