Scope
The first IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Computing and Networking Technologies 2009 (WMCNT'09) will take place in conjunction with the IEEE International Conference on Ultra Modern Telecommunications (ICUMT 2009) to be held in St. Petersburg, Russia, in October 2009. The workshop will be a day long event. This is an excellent opportunity to participate in two events covering a wide range of research in mobile computing and ultra modern wireless communications.
Overview
The new social, economic and technological trends having evolved worldwide such as the increasing demand for productivity and effectiveness with the pressure to respond immediately to customer requirements have created increased need for access to information anywhere in the world at anytime. Considering the present telecommunication environment, which is an amalgamation of a large number of networks and administrative domains employing various access technologies, combined with the increased user mobility makes it difficult to promise the same grade of service quality at all parts of the network. The convergence of information communications technology and computing is creating new demands and opportunities for ubiquitous computing via wireless and mobile equipment without technological restrictions. The demanding networking environment of wireless communications imposes several challenges in terms of network design, channel estimation, propagation and radio resource manage!
ment offering a variety of high quality multimedia applications. Overcoming these issues becomes even more demanding due to non-uniform spectrum allocation, various radio resource management policies, economic concerns, the scarcity of radio resources, the inherent transmission impairments of wireless links, and user mobility. The first IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Computing and Networking Technologies 2009 (WMCNT'09) serves as an open forum intending to promote discussion and bring together researchers, developers and engineers in both academia and industry to exchange ideas and to submit novel unpublished works about architecture, design, implementation, analysis, measurement, performance and simulation in mobile and ubiquitous computing environments. The main purpose is to encourage research for ultra modern wireless communication.

Proceedings
The authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing original, previously unpublished, complete research, not currently under review by another conference or journal, addressing state-of-the-art research and development in all areas of computer networking and data communications. All papers will be reviewed and accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, included in IEEE Xplore (approved). Papers must be submitted electronically in the EDAS. The maximum size of papers should be 5000 words including tables and figures. The cover page must contain an abstract of about 150 words, 3-5 keywords, name and affiliation of author(s) as well as the corresponding author's e-mail and postal address. Authors of selected outstanding papers will be invited to submit extended versions of their papers for consideration of publication in a special issue.
