CALL FOR PROJECTS' PRESENTATIONS

PWC 2003

The Eight International Conference on Personal Wireless Communications Sponsored by the IFIP WG 6.8 - Mobile and Wireless Communications http://www.iit.cnr.it/pwc2003/project-call.html

September 23-25, 2003 Telecom Italia Future Centre - Venice, Italy http://www.futurecentre.telecomitalia.it/eng/

PWC is the premier international forum for discussions between researchers, practitioners and students interested in the symbiosis of mobile computing and wireless networks. PWC 2003 is the eight conference of this series and is sponsored by IFIP WG 6.8

The PWC 2003 technical program committee is soliciting extended abstracts presenting on-going research projects on wireless and mobile communications. Areas of interest include those that are listed on the conference call for papers, which can be found at http://www.iit.cnr.it/pwc2003 We are looking for projects performed either at a single-country level or involving several countries (e.g., European Commission projects)

WHY should you submit a project presentation? --------------------------------------------- This is a great chance for disseminating the results of your project to a wide audience. Dissemination is the previous activity to exploitation, and could be considered as the market strategy to create awareness around your project.

WHAT you have to do NOW ----------------------- You must submit an extended abstract presenting your project. An extended abstract (maximum 1500 words) must clearly describe the scope of the project, the innovative ideas behind it, partners involved, etc. In addition, if appropriate, please shortly present results already achieved. Extended abstracts will be reviewed for novelty, timeliness, and relevance for this conference.

Submissions should be sent by email to pwc2003@iit.cnr.it by April 27, 2003. Please use the following subject: "pwc2003 project presentation".

WHAT you have to do if the submission is accepted ------------------------------------------------- Authors of accepted submissions will prepare a camera-ready version of the extended abstract to be published in the conference proceedings published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/index.html

In addition, you have to prepare a poster presenting your project and attend the PWC2003 poster session to present your poster.

A poster is a 1 meter x 1.25 meter rectangular board on which you can affix visually appealing material that describes your research. How you use this is up to you: you may choose to print out several 8.5"x11" or A4 sheets of paper (e.g., paper copies of overheads) and "tile" the poster board with these pages. Or, you may choose to print a single large sheet of paper describing the work and attach that to the poster board. Several document companies produce professional-looking posters from material produced on software like Powerpoint; you may want to use such a facility.
