Dear all
First of all, apologies for cross posting.
Building on the great success of the first edition of the IEEE Workshop on Telecommunications Standards: "From Research to Standards" (which won the Best IEEE ComSoc Workshop Award at IEEE ICC 2012), we are happy to announce the organization of its second edition in Budapest, Hungary, collocated with IEEE ICC 2013 (June 9 - 13, 2013).
The goal of this Workshop is to bridge the gap between researchers, scientists, and standards experts in both academia and industry and to promote standardization as an important vehicle for information sharing and cooperation between academia and industry. An additional goal is to bring together experts from different standardization bodies, providing opportunities for closer understanding and collaboration; catalyzing development of more interoperable standards and more efficient and effective communication systems.
The Workshop technical program will deliver high quality technical as well as visionary papers that will be reviewed and selected by aninternational program committee representing both academia and industry with a strong standardization background. All submissions are required to comply with ICC’s guidelines. Accepted papers will appear in IEEE Xplore.
Looking forward your submissions to the 2nd IEEE Workshop on Telecommunications Standards: "From Research to Standards". For further details, please visit the workshop's official site: http://www.research2standards.net/
