CALL FOR PAPERS ================================================= The 10th ACM* Symposium on QoS and Security for Wireless Mobile Networks (ACM Q2SWinet 2014) September 21st-26th, 2014 Montréal, Canada http://www.lia.deis.unibo.it/confs/Q2SWINET2014

Jointly held with the 17th ACM MSWiM 2014 Conference.

* ACM Pending upon Approval

**** Paper Submission Deadline --- May 30th, 2014 **** ----------------------------------------------------------------------

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

In recent years, wireless and mobile communication systems have become increasingly popular as an inexpensive and promising means for ubiquitous communications. In this scenario, the QoS provisioning and the management of network security have become crucial tasks to determine the success of future generation wireless mobile networks. This symposium calls for cutting-edge research achievements on the provisioning of QoS and Security in wireless and mobile networks. It also aims at increasing the synergy between academic and industry professionals working in this area.

Authors are encouraged to submit complete papers presenting new research related to theory or practice of all aspects of Quality of Service and Security issues in mobile and wireless systems. Topics of interest for ACM Q2SWinet 2014 include, but are not limited to:

- Security in Wireless MANETs, VANETs, Sensor, Mesh and PCS Networks - Secure PHY, MAC and Routing Protocols - Secure Cooperation-Based Systems and Services - Intrusion Detection in Wireless Ad hoc and Sensor Networks - Privacy, anonymity and authentication - Trust Establishment - Cooperation and Prevention of Non-cooperative Behavior - Incentive Aware Secure Protocol Design - QoS for Wireless Multimedia Networks and Systems - QoS for Wireless/Wired Hybrid Systems - QoS support and Mobility Management in Wireless Internet - QoS-Aware Routing for Wireless Networks - QoS Metrics - Wireless Network Survivability - Wireless Systems Reliability - Field operating tests, Performance Modeling and Simulation Techniques - Real-time and QoS-aware Wireless Networks

PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION -------------------------------- Papers should neither have been published elsewhere nor being currently under review by another conference or journal. The maximum page limit for regular papers is 10 pages, double column, and must strictly adhere to the ACM template format: http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates Guidelines on paper submission and formatting are available at: http://www.lia.deis.unibo.it/confs/Q2SWINET2014/submission.html Submission is managed electronically through EDAS: http://edas.info/N17479 (please select Regular papers)
