Call for Papers

WoWMoM 2007

The 8th IEEE International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks

http://www.ieee-wowmom.org

Helsinki, Finland, June 18-21, 2007

Technically co-sponsored by

The IEEE Technical Committee on Computer Communications (TCCC)
The Wireless World Research Forum (WWRF)

Organized by

NOKIA and TKK

Submission Deadline has been extended to December 03, 2006

IEEE WoWMoM 2007 is soliciting original and previously unpublished papers addressing research challenges and advances towards a world of wireless, mobile, and multimedia pervasive communications. The emergence of broadband wireless access standards (e.g., from the 3GPP, IEEE, IETF, and other regional fora) and their future evolutions, offer exciting new opportunities for delivering rich multimedia content over wireless networks. Users will be able to seamlessly and ubiquitously accomplish their tasks such as accessing and retrieving information, communicating with other users or devices, exploiting advanced context-dependent services, and so on.

Papers that present work, validated by experimentation, simulation, or analysis, are solicited. Practical experiences and experimental efforts from both industry and academy, duly documenting the lessons learned from test-beds, field-trial, or real deployments, are also welcomed.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

System prototypes and experiences
QoS for voice and video in wireless networks
Middleware support for QoS provision
IP-based wireless multimedia services
Multimedia session signaling in wireless environments
Networking services for pervasive systems
Multicasting and broadcasting issues
Handoff and mobility management
Seamless internetworking and self-organization
Energy-efficient protocols and power management
Network management and control
IP-based mobile networks
Context-aware wireless multimedia applications
Location mechanism and services
Wireless BAN, PAN, LAN, MAN, WAN, and RAN
Ad-hoc and sensor networks
Broadband wireless access and mesh networks
Vehicular wireless networks
Wireless security, privacy and dependability
Content management and distribution
Authentication, authorization, and accounting
Modeling and performance evaluation

IEEE WoWMoM 2007 technical program will also include one-day workshops and industry sessions on hot topics on wireless, mobile and multimedia networks.
