==========================================================================================
                         WiOpt'09
The 7th international Symposium on Modeling and Optimization
         in Mobile, Ad Hoc, and Wireless Networks

                http://www.wiopt.org

         June 23-27, 2009, Seoul, Korea

         (Co-located with IEEE ISIT 2009)

Technically sponsored by the IEEE Information Theory Society

==========================================================================================
Scope
==========================================================================================
This symposium intends to bring together researchers and practitioners working
on modeling and optimization of wireless network design and operations.
It welcomes original, high-quality works on different perspectives, including
performance analysis and simulation, algorithms and protocol design,
optimization theory and application, information theoretic analysis including
capacity scaling, for all forms of wireless networks: cellular, metropolitan,
ad hoc, delay-tolerant, mesh, sensor networks as well as any combination of
these.

Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research,
not currently under review by another conference or journal, are solicited.

Topics of relevance include, but are not limited to, the following ones:

Modeling, simulations and performance analysis
Optimization of network design
Optimal control of network operations
Network protocols design
Mobility modeling and management
Scalability and manageability of network architectures
Pricing and incentives
Opportunistic and cooperative communications
Network and multi-user information theory
Asymptotic system properties (capacity, connectivity, coverage, delay)
Energy efficiency
Cognitive radio

==========================================================================================
Adjunct Workshops
==========================================================================================
Five one-day workshops will accompany the main WiOpt symposium:

RAWNET/WNC^3 2009 : Resource Allocation, Cooperation and Competition in Wireless Networks
PHYSCOMNET 2009 : Physics-inspired Paradigms for Wireless Communications and Networks
SPASWIN 2009: Spatial Stochastic Models for Wireless Networks
WiNMee 2009 : International Workshop On Wireless Network Measurement
ConCom 2009 : Control over Communication Channels
==========================================================================================
Important Dates
==========================================================================================
Main symposium: June 23-25, 2009
adjunct workshops: June 26-27, 2009
Submission deadline: February 5, 2009
Notification of acceptance: April 1, 2009
Camera-ready copy: May 1, 2009

==========================================================================================
Submission Instructions
==========================================================================================
The submission format for the papers is an extended abstract, up to eight pages
long. Please use the IEEE Transactions format, 11 pt character size, one column
text, one-and-a-half line spacing, letter paper. This page budget should contain
all figures, tables, references, etc. The extended abstract should also include
a brief abstract of up to 150 words. The submission will be handled via the EDAS
system (http://edas.info). Only PDF files are acceptable; please make sure that
the paper prints without problems (take care to embed all required fonts, etc.).

==========================================================================================
Journal Issues
==========================================================================================
* A small number of accepted papers from both the main symposium and the adjunct
workshops will be considered for publication in a special issue of the Mobile
Networks and Applications Journal
(http://www.springer.com/engineering/signals/journal/11036)
* We have reserved 2-3 slots in an upcoming special issue on "Ad Hoc Networks
and Pervasive Computing" of Wiley's Journal on Security and Communication Networks
(http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/114299116/home), for the most
outstanding papers dealing with security aspects of wireless networks and
appearing in either the main symposium or the adjunct workshops.
