The 9th International Conference on

Next Generation Wired/Wireless Advanced Networking

NEW2AN 2009
http://www.new2an.org/

September 15 - 18, 2009
St.Petersburg, Russia

co-located with the 2st conference on Smart Spaces ruSMART ("are you SMART")

CALL FOR PAPERS

About the Conference

Next-generation mobile networks will evolve out of existing wired and
wireless networks of different nature by means of convergence, fusion
and mutual penetration; next-generation multimedia services in turn pose
new requirements and challenges on treatment of traffic within
communication systems – a certain degree of multilayer co-operation has
to be achieved. This forms a framework on harmonization of results
obtained separately in different areas of network research like network
performance evaluation, architecture and protocol design, and low layer
network design. The conference goal is in the identification,
investigation and integration of new algorithms, approaches,
architectures, methods and mechanisms to enable proper and efficient
operation of a next-generation IP-based wireless network. Therefore,
wireless networks and their interaction with wired networks shall be
widely examined and addressed throughout the conference.

The history of NEW2AN dates back to 1993, today it is an established
conference featured by proceedings published by Springer LNCS and
distinguished keynote speakers.

In 2008 NEW2AN promoted newly organized event on Smart Spaces ruSMART
("are you SMART"). In 2009 NEW2AN and ruSMART will be organized again
jointly thus allowing boosting of cross-discipline interactions.

The NEW2AN/ruSMART 2009 will be held in St. Petersburg, Russia - the
meeting point of East and West. Through its stunning architecture and
wonderful art galleries and museums, among a number of other
attractions, the wealth of history of East and West can be seen and felt
in this beautiful city.

NEW2AN/ruSMART are supported by the Government of St.Petersburg and
regarded as very important part of scientific life of Russia.

About the Conference

Recent advances in the field of wireless networks have moved them beyond
their traditional areas of application to a much broader scope. They
form a space where users can access a number of wireless technologies to
interact with various services. Similarly, existent and future services
form a space providing an unlimited set of possibilities ranging from
browsing to interactive video conversations. All these layers form a
smart environment that can harmonize a number of technologies at each
architectural layer to provide the best user experience.

This conference will explore and explain the scope and challenges of
smart spaces. In this regard, the conference aims to bring together
research professionals from diverse fields including but not limited to
wireless communication, ubiquitous networks, software development,
multimedia, services, and business in both academia and industry.

The 2nd Conference on Smart Spaces ruSMART 2009 will take place on
September 15 - 16, 2009. It will be co-located with the 9th
International Conference Next Generation Wired/Wireless Advanced
Networking NEW2AN 2009. ruSMART proceedings will be published by SpringerLNCS in joint volume.

The ruSMART 2009 will be held in St. Petersburg, Russia - the meeting
point of East and West. Through its stunning architecture and wonderful
art galleries and museums, among a number of other attractions, the
wealth of history of East and West can be seen and felt in this
beautiful city.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

- Wireless technologies for smart spaces
- Heterogeneous communication technologies for smart spaces
- Personal and body networks, wearable computing
- Distributed and pervasive services
- Service discovery and composition in smart environments
- Convergence of technologies for smart space
- Smart environments for home, city, office, shop, persons, transport,
car, hospital, etc
- Business models for smart spaces
- Social, and economic aspects and problems of smart space
- Architecture and platforms for smart space
