****************************************************************************************************** 7th International Symposium on Wireless Pervasive Computing 2012

Dalian, China, 3rd-5th of July, 2012 www.iswpc.org/2012/http://www.iswpc.org/2012/

Techically co-sponsored by IEEE, IEEE Communications society

CALL FOR PAPERS **** Due date 18th March 2012 **** Selected papers will be recommended to SCI Indexed Journal (Wiley, SCN) **** Proceedings will be published in IEEExplorer **** Selected presented best papers will be published in Journals indexed by Scopus

Wireless pervasive computing is a rapidly growing area that has attracted significant attention due to its potential impact on the quality of life. To enable wireless pervasive computing, it is necessary to integrate technologies from the fields of distributed computing, networking, communications and signal processing. The aim of this symposium is to provide a platform for researchers in the area of wireless pervasive computing and related areas to showcase their results, launch new ideas, as well as to interact with other researchers. The scope of this symposium covers concepts and all enabling technologies of wireless pervasive computing. This includes a huge variety of topics ranging from wireless communications and networking to services and applications of pervasive computing. A series of panel and tutorials will also seek to inform and invoke interaction among researchers. Prospective authors are invited to submit original technical papers for presentation at the conference. Full papers have to be submitted via EDAS. The maximum number of pages allowed is six. Proposals for tutorials are also solicited, addressing emerging topics that relate to technical issues in wireless communications and applications.

Contributions are sought in (but not limited to) the following areas:

Wireless peer-to-peer • Wireless mesh networks • Inter and intra vehicular communications • Wireless sensor networks • Green pervasive computing • Advanced localization and tracking techniques • Wireless video and multimedia • Pervasive computing applications • QoE in wireless systems • Wireless security • Cross-layer design • Wireless routing • Wireless network coding • Ad-hoc networks • Emergency networks • Relay assisted and cooperative communications • UWB • Propagation and channel characterization • MIMO and multi-antenna communications • Smart antennas • CDMA, TDMA and FDMA air interface • Wireless access techniques • WPANs and WLANs • OFDM, OFDMA • Wi-MaX • UMTS and LTE • Game theory in wireless networks Mobile Social Networking • White-space Wi-Fi • Cognitive Radio Networks
