CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications

ADVANCED MOBILITY MANAGEMENT AND QoS PROTOCOLS FOR WIRELESS INTERNET

The next generation of networking systems will be data-centric where mobility and QoS support are the two critical issues. The convergence of the telecom, datacom and mobile world has created a multi-service, multi-platform network of the new world: namely mobile wireless Internet. User mobility has created a new dimension in many research areas, including inter network and inter service roaming, mobility management, Quality of Service (QoS), resource management, network architecture and protocols, mobile multimedia applications and services, etc. New wireless network architectures are being proposed to cope with diverse applications, levels of mobility, and traffic types. Advanced mobility management techniques will support seamless IP connection across different networks, and provide end-to-end QoS support. A QoS-enabled multi-service-based high-speed backbone network is required to carry large amounts of packet-switched data for both wireline and wireless access.

This issue of J-SAC will be devoted to the advanced architectures, protocols, and applications for wireless mobile Internet, in particular, mobility management, QoS provisioning and the interaction between the two. We seek original, previously unpublished, and completed contributions, not currently under review by another journal. Contributions emphasizing recent advances and new research directions are strongly encouraged. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * Network architectures and protocols for wireless Internet * Integration and internetworking of wired and wireless networks * Inter network and inter service roaming solutions * Interoperability in multi-provider access networks * Inter/intra domain QoS protocols and mechanisms * Mobility management, in particular, QoS-aware mobility management * Related standards (3GPP, MWIF, 3G.IP, ETSI, IETF, ...) * Multimedia applications and services for different networks and user terminals * System architecture, protocol stack and reference model

Prospective authors should prepare manuscripts in accordance to the IEEE J-SAC format described in the Information for Authors and submit four copies of their manuscript to one of the guest editors. Papers may also be submitted electronically as .pdf files via e-mail. The following timetable will apply:

Manuscript submission: June 1, 2003 Acceptance notification: October 1, 2003 Final manuscript due: December 1, 2003 Publication: 2nd Quarter 2004
