------------------------------------------------------------------------ CALL FOR PAPERS

RAWNET 2008 The 4th workshop on Resource Allocation in Wireless Networks

March 31st, Berlin, Germany http://www.rawnet.org

Full Papers due: November 26, 2007 ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tomorrow's wireless network must be optimized to offer enhanced rate performance, at higher and often heterogenous quality-of-service levels, in user scenarios with ever increasing mobilily. To meet these challenges, system designers can resort to a number of tools and techniques at PHY, MAC or higher layers of the protocol stack. In order to increase the network efficiency (Bit/Sec/Hz per Euro/Dollar) while providing the required QoS, a more efficient utilization of the spectral resource across the network will be required. Smart resource allocation schemes should help provide the customer with a smooth user experience while efficiently tackling interference issues in agressive reuse environment, whether in cellular or adhoc scenarios. Ideally, they should be aware, i.e. jointly designed with lower layer algorithms (multiple antenna systems, spatial division multiple access, OFDMA, multi-cell cooperative coding) and potentialy upper layers as well (transport/routing/application).

----------------- IMPORTANT DATES -----------------

Paper submission deadline : November 26, 2007 Notification of acceptance : January 21, 2008 Camera-ready papers due : February 21, 2008 Early registration deadline : March 1, 2008

-------------------- TOPICS OF INTEREST --------------------

This workshop seeks original work within the fields described by (but not limited to) the bullets below:

- User scheduling (single cell /multicell /OFDMA); - Cross-layer design (e.g. combined MIMO - Resource allocation schemes) - Power control and energy-efficient communication; - Resource allocation-based interference mitigation; - Cooperation schemes for interference control, range extension (multicell, multihop cooperation); - Performance evaluation methods for wireless networks; - Game theoretic resource allocation; - Pricing-based, auction-based schemes in ad-hoc/cellular networks; - Fairness vs. performance issues

----------------- INVITED SPEAKERS -----------------

- Olivier Lévêque (EPFL)

----------------------- SUBMISSION GUIDELINES -----------------------

Paper submissions will be handled electronically via EasyChair (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=rawnet2008). Authors should prepare a PDF or a PostScript version of their full paper. Papers must be no longer than 6 double-column pages, font size not smaller than 11 points, and can be prepared using the standard IEEE format.
