Wireless and satellite technology offers many advantages with respect to cable networks both concerning scalability, overcoming geographical obstacles, covering isolated areas, application in hazardous environments. In many cases, as well as in aerospace applications, the wireless choice is a must. In other cases, wireless means resource optimization, as in the case of Wireless LANs. Cable networks and the Internet are not sufficient to support applications in some environments. People may require news on the web in hazardous environments. Moreover, in the presence of infrastructure, traffic bottlenecks of terrestrial networks and traditional links could make the service highly inefficient, if not useful. Therefore, there is increasing commercial interest to use wireless in modern telecommunications systems such as local area services, interactivity and possibility of building networks adapted to the different needs; tele-learning; managing activity of the Public Administration; bank and financial services; industrial activity located remotely; broadcasting and backbone access; international connections; tele-medicine; data recovery; video-surveillance; application in rural environments; applications for vehicles, trains and planes; and tactical communications, among others.
Offering real services with a specific guarantee of Quality of Service (QoS) over wireless systems (including WLAN, radio and satellite) is very challenging as it implies the need to solve challenging research and development issues due to the peculiarity of the application environment.
This issue of Computer and Electrical Engineering (C & EE) Journal is aimed at soliciting recent original and previously unpublished research results that deal with technological solutions, protocols, applications, performance analysis of Wireless Networks, including WLANs, WMANs, radio networks, 3G and beyond systems, military tactical and satellite networks. Papers are solicited from all over the world including academia, industry, business, and government. Topics of solicited original research papers include, but not limited to:
" Wireless and Mobile Internet " Networks and Solutions for Tactical and Hazardous Environments " Sensor wireless networks " Ad-hoc networks " Security schemes and issues " Mobility Management " Wireless LANs and Wi-Fi systems " Wireless MANs and WiMax systems " Access Technologies " Quality of Service Scheduling and Admission Control " Protocol and Traffic Modeling " Resource Allocation and Dynamic Bandwidth Management " 3G and beyond systems " Multimedia Wireless Communications and Applications " Innovative Satellite Systems and Architectures " Satellite-adapted Protocols and Algorithms " QoS Mapping and Management in Heterogeneous Wireless Networks " Data Communication in Delay Tolerant Networks " Implementation and real test-bed experiments " Software tools " Performance evaluation including measurement, modeling and simulation studies " Standards
Prospective authors should submit an electronic version in Word, or pdf of their papers to Guest Editors. Submissions should not exceed 25 double-spaced, 8.5x11-inch pages (including figures, tables, and references) in 10-12 point font. Include five to 10 keywords, complete postal and email addresses, and fax and phone numbers of corresponding authors.
Deadlines - Submission of manuscripts: June 30, 2005 - Notification of acceptance/rejection: September 30, 2005 - Submission of final manuscript: November 30, 2005 - Tentative Publication Date: February 2006
