[Tccc] WLAN/WPAN Symp @ IWCMC 2010 in Caen, France

CALL FOR PAPERS

The 6th International Wireless Communication and Mobile Computing
Conference (IWCMC'10)

Wireless LANs and Wireless PANs Symposium
June 28- July 2, 2010, Caen, France

http://www.iwcmc.com/CFP/WLAN_WPAN.pdf

** Please note that:
1. Selected papers will be further considered for possible publication
in two special issues of the Wiley Journal of "Wireless Communications
and Mobile Computing (WCMC)," and "International Journal of Autonomous
and Adaptive Communications Systems (IJAACS)"
(http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/76507157/home and
www.inderscience.com/ijaacs)

2. There will also be best paper awards.

SCOPE
Original papers are invited on emerging architectures and technologies
in the design of wireless local area networks (WLANs) and wireless
personal area networks (WPANs). Of particular interest to this
symposium are innovations in applications that support ubiquitous
networking and computing and WLAN/WPAN connectivity to the internet.
Areas of interest also include performance analysis and algorithm
design of aspects related to the Physical layer (PHY), MAC layer,
network layer, and cross-layer of WLANs and WPANs.

TOPICS
The conference solicits original technical papers that were not
previously published and are not currently under review for
publication elsewhere. Topics of interest include but are not limited
to:
• Wireless Mesh Networks
• Ultra-wide band (UWB) in the context of wireless LAN/PAN usage areas
• Medium access techniques and protocols for WLANs/WPANs
• Emerging standards and testbeds for WLANs/WPANs
• WLANs/WPANs protocols for smart antennas
• Energy efficiency in protocol and systems design
• Resource assignment and sharing in WLANs/WPANs
• Self configuration in WLANs/WPANs
• Provisioning quality of service in WLANs/WPANs
• Multimedia networking architectures and protocols for WLANs/WPANs
• Integration and interoperability of WLANs/WPANs and 3G (and beyond) networks
• Interoperability issues between wireless standards/protocols and the Internet
• User mobility and workload modeling
• Security issues in WLANs/WPANs

PAPER SUBMISSION
Note that IWCMC papers are typically limited to five pages, including
text, figures and references, and must be written in English and must
be in standard IEEE double-column format (unless mentioned otherwise
on the conference's main WEB page). Standard IEEE Conferences
templates for Microsoft Word or LaTeX formats can be found at:
http://www.ieee.org/web/publications/pubservices/confpub/AuthorTools/conferenceTemplates.html.
The font size must be at least 10 points. All submissions will be
handled electronically and must be in PDF format. Information on best
paper awards and other details will be made available on the IWCMC
2010 main page (http://iwcmc.com/).
All submitted papers would be judged based on their quality through a
peer-reviewing process. Accepted papers will be published in the
Conference Proceedings of IWCMC'10. Further instructions on paper
submission and formatting are available on the Conference Main
Webpage. Paper submission please go through the EDAS System, WLANs and
WPANs Symposium ((http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=8223&track=8203).
