CALL FOR PAPERS

IEEE WoWMoM 2017 18th International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks

http://wowmom2017.eecs.qmul.ac.uk/

sponsored by IEEE Computer Society, Missouri University of Science and Technology, IEEE Computer Society TC on Computer Communications (TCCC)

June 12-15, 2017 Macao, China

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract submission due: November 23, 2016 Full manuscript due: November 30, 2016 Acceptance notification: March 15, 2017

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SCOPE AND OVERVIEW ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IEEE WoWMoM 2017 is soliciting original and previously unpublished papers addressing research challenges and advances in the areas of wireless, mobile, and multimedia networking as well as ubiquitous and pervasive systems. The evolution of wireless networking technologies and their key role in future Internet scenarios offer an increasing wealth of opportunities for distributing multimedia contents over wireless networks, enabling dissemination of professional contents to mobile users as well as sharing user-generated contents among them. Users will be able to retrieve, publish, and manage information, communicate with other users or devices, access and author services, and create and exploit context-awareness. Papers that present original work, validated by experimentation, simulation, or analysis, are solicited. Practical experiences and experimental efforts from both industry and academia, duly documenting the lessons learned from testbeds, field-trials, or real deployments, are also welcome.

Papers are invited which address new and previously unpublished results in the areas:

- Ad-hoc, sensor, mesh and vehicular wireless networks - Content-centric architectures for wireless, mobile and multimedia networks - Context-awareness in wireless, mobile and multimedia networks - Cognitive communications and networking - Dependability and survivability issues for wireless, mobile and multimedia networks - Energy-efficiency for wireless, mobile and multimedia networks - Green wireless networking - Internet/Web of Things - Localisation, tracking, and mobility management and services - Middleware services for wireless, mobile and multimedia networks - Mobile applications and services over 5G networks - Mobile big data networking and services - Mobile cloud computing - Mobile data offloading in 5G networks - Mobile edge computing - Mobile health networking - Mobile network traffic characterization and measurements - Mobile social networks - Modelling, analysis, and performance evaluation - Opportunistic and delay-tolerant networks - Participatory, mobile and urban sensing - Resource management for QoS/QoE provisioning - RFID, NFC, and Machine-to-machine (M2M) communications - Satellite and space networking - Seamless inter-networking and self-organisation - Security, trust and privacy issues for wireless, mobile and multimedia networks - Software-defined wireless networks - Standardization Aspects of Mobile Network QoS and Reliability - System prototypes, measurements, real-world deployment, and experiences - Underwater wireless, mobile and multimedia networks - Virtual mobile infrastructure - Wireless BAN, PAN, LAN, MAN and WAN - Wireless multimedia systems, services and applications

PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All submissions must describe original research, not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal. Papers must be submitted electronically through EDAS, using the link: https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=22851

Authors can submit papers falling into two distinct paper categories (please select the appropriate one when submitting):

Regular Papers

Regular papers’ submissions may be up to 9 pages in length (including figures and references), formatted in two-column IEEE conference style with font size 10 points or greater. For the camera ready, authors can buy one additional page up to 10 pages.

Work in Progress papers

Work-in-progress papers provide a peer-reviewed forum for late-breaking or preliminary research results, giving an opportunity for researchers and practitioners to present and demonstrate their recent research, and to obtain feedback from their peers in an informal setting. Work-in-progress papers’ submissions may be up to 3 pages in length (including figures and references), with the option of purchasing one extra page upon acceptance (up to 4 pages).

********************************************************************************* For accepted papers, attendance and presentation by one of the authors is mandatory. Submission implies the willingness of at least one author to attend the conference and present the paper. Accepted papers will be included in the proceedings of IEEE WoWMoM 2017 and submitted for publication to IEEE Xplore. All conference proceedings must meet IEEE’s quality standards, and IEEE reserves the right not to publish any proceedings that do not meet these standards. WoWMoM organizers reserve the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the conference.

*********************************************************************************
