ACM/IET/ICST International
Workshop on Performance and Analysis of Wireless Networks http://www.cs.adelaide.edu.au/~pawn08/ Held in conjunction with The
International Conference on Mobile Technology, Applications,and Systems
(Mobility 2008),Ilan, TAIWAN September 10-12, 2008 http://www.mobilityconference.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- KEYNOTE ADDRESS:
"Complementary Coded Cooperative Wireless Networking" Presented by: Professor
Hsiao-Hwa Chen, ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wireless communication
technologies have been evolving at a rapid pace over the last few decades.
Different types of wireless communication networks (BAN, PAN, LAN, etc) are
being deployed to address the needs of all kinds of users. Evaluating the
performance of wireless networks and systems continues to be a critical
activity in the design, implementation, and deployment of emerging wireless
technologies. This workshop is intended to
provide an international forum for scientists, engineers, practitioners,
network users to share their experiences, present original ideas, report on
state-of-the-art and in-progress research results on the empirical performance
of wireless communication technologies and applications. In contrast to many past and
current workshops also covering the topic of wireless networks, this event
places special emphasis on empirical performance results obtained on actual,
physical wireless network infrastructures, testbeds, networked hosts, and
devices. Performance results obtained using only modeling, theoretical
analysis or simulators without a strong practical performance component are not
appropriate for this workshop. We particularly welcome submissions that
present experimental performance evaluations of innovative wireless design/implementation
prototype architectures, systems, and applications. We hope that the
contributions to this workshop will help us better understand many of the
practical performance related issues that are likely to impact next generation
wireless networks, technologies, and applications. Topics of interest, but are
not limited to: ------------------------------------------- * Performance of wireless
media access protocols * Performance of mobility
protocols and architectures * Performance of mobility
management protocols and architectures * Performance of wireless
local area networks, personal area networks * Performance of broadband
wireless access technologies (WiMAX, etc) * Performance of 3G/4G
networks, systems, and protocols * Performance of sensor
networks and devices * Performance of
heterogeneous wireless networks * Performance of wireless
security protocols * Performance of wireless
communication protocols * Performance of admission
control protocols over wireless networks * Performance optimizations
and tuning over wireless networks * Performance of
heterogeneous wired/wireless network testbeds * Performance of wireless
applications * Performance measurement

June 1, 2008 Notification date: July 1,
2008 Camera-ready version due:
August 1, 2008 Author Instructions ------------------- Prospective authors are
encouraged to submit full papers describing original, previously unpublished,
complete research, not currently under review by another conference or journal,
addressing state-of-the-art research and development in all areas of performance
and analysis of wireless communication technologies, systems, and networks.
Please use the ACM SIG paper format (http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html).
Submissions must not exceed
6 pages in PDF, including tables and figures. Submission of a paper
implies that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will
register and present the paper at the conference. Please submit papers
directly to one of the Co-Chairs, Sherali Zeadally (email: szeadally@xxxxxxx)
or Abdelhamid Mellouk (email: mellouk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) with "IWPAWN 2008
paper submission" in the subject line of the email. Each submission must be
accompanied by the following information: the paper title, a short abstract, a
complete list of authors and their affiliations, and the contact of the
corresponding author. Publication ----------- Accepted papers will be
published by ACM Press, included in the ACM Digital Library and indexed by EI.
The proceedings of the workshop will be available at the conference. At least
one author (or co-author) of an accepted paper must register for the conference
for it to be included in the conference proceedings. Extended versions of
selected papers will be considered for further publication in a Special issue
of an International Journal planned shortly after the workshop. Best Paper Award ---------------- One best paper award,
selected by the organizing committee, based on referee reviews, will be
presented to the author(s) of the best paper submitted to the workshop. |
