Special Session on "QoS Provision in Wireless Networks"
organized in conjunction with
The 2nd International Conference on Mobile Lightweight
Wireless Systems (MOBILIGHT 2010)
10-12 May 2010, Barcelona, Spain
Important Dates:
Full Paper submission due: 25 January 2010
Notification of acceptance by: 15 February 2010
Camera ready paper due: 15 March 2010
Scope:
Today, wireless networks are considered to be a significant and emerging
part of the communication networks field. Modern wireless networks must
support all kinds of services, and perform similarly to the wired networks.
The pertinent example of these demands is the need to efficiently serve the
traffic generated by the emerging multimedia network applications. Thus,
wireless networks have to
be able to support Quality of Service (QoS). QoS support in wireless
networks is a challenging issue. Significant research has taken place the
last years on this area.
The Special Session will try to analyze modern methods of providing QoS
support in wireless networks, explain all related issues, highlight the
problems that arise when trying to provide different and demanding services
over wireless networks, present the theoretical background, bring out
related solutions given so far, and moreover, exhibit the latest research
concepts and relevant ideas regarding near-future implementations.
Topics:
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- The need for QoS support / Modern wireless network applications that
require QoS support
- Traffic characteristics / classification / multimedia codecs features
- Cross-layer solutions
- Medium access control issues / concepts / algorithms / MAC protocols QoS
support
fundamentals (traffic differentiation, packet prioritization, resource
allocation)
- Current technologies and representative examples of QoS supportive
wireless networks
[WPAN / WLAN / WWAN protocols, Cellular telecommunication networks,
Satellite communications]
- QoS aware simulation techniques for wireless networks
- QoS support at the physical layer
- Power saving mechanisms
- Future integrated solutions (e.g. 4G networks)
Paper submission:
All submitted papers should describe original, previously unpublished work
and will be subject to a rigorous peer-review. Accepted papers will be
published by Springer in the MOBILIGHT Conference Proceedings and made
available online through the Lecture Notes of ICST (LNICST). Please visit
