[Tccc] CFP: Cross-Layer Optimized Wireless Networks Symposium- IWCMC 2010 -Deadline extended to January 15, 2010!

Call for Papers
-----------------------------
Cross-Layer Optimized Wireless Networks Symposium,

International Conference on Wireless Communications and Mobile
Computing, June 28 - July 2, 2010, Caen, France, http://iwcmc.com/.

Symposium Background
-----------------------------

The explosive increasing in wireless packet-data applications, such as
wireless web browsing, real-time mobile multimedia streaming, and
interactive applications motivates the rapid development of the
next-generation mobile wireless networks. The associated communication
channels and traffic patterns in mobile wireless networks are more
unpredictable than the traditional wire-line networks. On the other
hand, the future multimedia applications impose stringent and diverse
Quality of Service (QoS) requirements, which cannot be satisfactorily
addressed through the traditional layering network-protocol
architecture. Correspondingly, a cross-layer design paradigm would be
needed to achieve transmission protocol stack performance while
meeting these new challenges in QoS requirements. The cross-layer
designs and protocols tend to be very essential approaches for the
mobile wireless and ad hoc networks where unpredictable variables such
as node mobility, node density, network dimensions make the diverse
and stringent wireless QoS requirements even harder to satisfy.
Cross-layer designs and protocols are the emerging research areas
where some early results have recently been reported in the
literatures, but the upcoming new applications and more
stringent/diverse wireless QoS requirements open even more new
opportunities for many interesting and comprehensive research topics
targeting at concepts, methodologies, and techniques to support the
future advanced mobile wireless applications. Clearly, the
developments of the new schemes, mechanisms, and systems associated
with the cross-layer designs and protocols will have a significant
impact on the next generation of mobile wireless communications and
networks.

Scope of Contributions
-----------------------------
The focuses of the papers to be published in the Cross-Layer Optimized
Wireless Networks Symposium of IWCMC 2010 will concentrate on
state-of-the-art research in various aspects of cross-layer designs
and protocols for next-generation mobile wireless communications
networks. We solicit the original papers covering various topics of
interest that include, but are not limited to:

• Methodologies for cross-layer protocol design in mobile wireless networks
• Cross-layer error and delay control
• Cross-Layer optimization for energy, network lifetime, and capacity
• Complexity and scalability issues in cross-layer design
• Physical layer information for medium access control and radio link control
• Signaling for cross-layer protocol interaction
• QoS and radio resource management in layered networks
• Channel access algorithms for cross-layered wireless communication networks
• Performance optimization for cross-layer design of wireless network
• Cross-Layer optimized routing wireless networks
• Cognitive radio and dynamic wireless networks
• Architectures issues for cross-layer protocol design in mobile
wireless networks
• Cross-Layer design issues for quality of service provisioning in
wireless networks
• Signal processing for cross-layer design
• Cross-layer strategies in wireless sensor and actuator networks
• Interactions between routing/mobility management and congestion control
• Application layer adaptation based on cross-layer notifications
• Design, implementation and test-bed/experimental results
• Overview/survey of the special undergoing/planned projects
• Standardization issues and status reports from various standards
organizations

Submission Guidelines
-----------------------------

The International Cross-Layer Optimized Wireless Networks Symposium
within IWCMC 2010 is soliciting original and high-quality papers
describing state-of-the art research and development in the areas of
cross-layer designs and protocols over mobile wireless networks.
Prospective authors are invited to submit original technical papers in
5 pages standard IEEE proceedings, two-column, 10 pt font, Microsoft
Word or LaTeX formats.

Accepted papers will be included in ACM/IEEE Digital Library (pending
approval) and selected papers will be further considered for
publication in one of two special issues of the Wiley Journal of
"Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing (WCMC)," and
International Journal of Autonomous and Adaptive Communications
Systems (IJAACS)." There will also be best paper and best symposium
awards. http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/76507157/home &
www.inderscience.com/ijaacs

Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that,
should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will
register for the conference and present the work. Submissions will be
conducted electronically on the conference website:
