[Tccc] CFP: 3rd Multiple Access Communications - Barcelona, September 2010

MACOM 2010
3rd International Workshop on Multiple Access Communications
13-14 September 2010, Barcelona, Spain
http://www.csit-spb.ru/macom2010.html

Aims and Topics
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


In 1961, Claude Shannon established the foundation for the discipline
now known as "multi-user information theory" in his pioneering paper
"Two-way Communication Channels", and later Norman Abramson published
his paper "The Aloha System - Another Alternative for Computer
Communications" in 1970 which introduced the concept of multiple access
using a shared common channel. Thereafter for more than 40 years of
study, numerous elegant theories and algorithms have been developed for
multiple access techniques.

The aim of this workshop is to discuss both multi-user communications
theory and multiple access techniques and standardization activities in
areas related to PHY and MAC layer protocols - and their interactions -
for contemporary networks. We intend to provide the experts from both
the academic institutes and industry with an opportunity to present
their state-of-the-art results and exchange the ideas on multiple access
techniques and related areas:

- PHY-layer multiple access techniques: CDMA, OFDMA, etc.
- Link-layer MAC access protocols: duty-cycle, scheduled, random access,
polling-based, etc.
- PHY/MAC cross-layer techniques;
- Multi-user information theory: broadcast, multi-access and (multiple)
relay channel, multiuser detection, etc.
- Queuing theory, modeling and analysis techniques: stochastic models,
Markov models, new simulation models and tools.

The MACOM 2010 event has special interest to address the new paradigms
and theoretical foundations for future wireless communication systems.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- Cognitive radio networks.
- Autonomic (self-*) and opportunistic networks.
- Cooperative wireless networks.
- QoS and radio resource management.
- Wireless Broadband Networks: PANs, WLANs, WIMAX, cellular (3G/4G) and
satellite communications.
- Wireless Multi-hop networks: sensor and actuator, mesh, vehicular
networks, etc.

Venue
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------


MACOM 2010 will take place in the burgeoning 22@ innovation district in
Barcelona, Spain. Its centric location, combined with the high density
of universities, research institutes and technology- oriented companies,
makes this the ideal spot for the event. The neighborhood has nice
promenades and beaches to relax after technical sessions and it is also
one of the main clubbing areas in the city.

Address: Campus de la Comunicació. Universitat Pompeu Fabra. Roc Boronat
138, 08018 Barcelona, Spain.

Important Dates
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
