Symposium Background and CFP:
The explosive increasing in wireless packet-data applications, such as wireless web browsing, real-time mobile multimedia streaming, and interactive applications motivates the rapid development of the next-generation mobile wireless networks. The associated communication channels and traffic patterns in mobile wireless networks are more unpredictable than the traditional wire-line networks. On the other hand, the future multimedia applications impose stringent and diverse Quality of Service (QoS) requirements, which cannot be satisfactorily addressed through the traditional layering network-protocol architecture. Correspondingly, a cross-layer design paradigm would be needed to achieve transmission protocol stack performance while meeting these new challenges in QoS requirements. The cross-layer designs and protocols tend to be very essential approaches for the mobile wireless and ad hoc networks where unpredictable variables such as node mobility, node density, network dimensions make the diverse and stringent wireless QoS requirements even harder to satisfy. Cross-layer designs and protocols are the emerging research areas where some early results have recently been reported in the literatures, but the upcoming new applications and more stringent/diverse wireless QoS requirements open even more new opportunities for many interesting and comprehensive research topics targeting at concepts, methodologies, and techniques to support the future advanced mobile wireless applications. Clearly, the developments of the new schemes, mechanisms, and systems associated with the cross-layer designs and protocols will have a significant impact on the next generation of mobile wireless communications and networks.
