      The Fourth ACM International Workshop on
   Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Wireless and
                       Mobile Systems

                 July 21, 2001, Rome, Italy 

  In conjunction with MobiCom 2001: Seventh Annual
  International Conference on Mobile Computing and
                         Networking
               July 16-21, 2001, Rome, Italy

            Sponsored by ACM and ACM SIGMOBILE 

                      ACM MSWiM 2001

Scope

In its forth year, the 2001 International Workshop on Modeling and
Simulation of Wireless and Mobile Systems, will take place in Rome,
Italy, just after the International Conference on Mobile Computing
and Networking (MobiCom 2001), in July 2001. This is an excellent
opportunity to partake in two events covering a wide range of
research in wireless and mobile systems.
  
 

Workshop Objectives

Wireless systems are growing incredibly fast in recent years. Pushed
by the increase of the number of users and by the introduction of new
services, and supported by the development of new technologies, the
growth of the complexity of these systems makes the performance
evaluation and design of wireless systems more and more challenging.
Simulation is frequently used as an approach to cope with the variety
of details typical of complex wireless and mobile systems. Analytical
approaches are necessary to provide a deep comprehension of the
system dynamics which have a major impact on the performance. 

This workshop will focus on all aspects of wireless systems,
particularly modeling analysis and simulation in wireless
communication. 

MSWiM 2001 serves as a forum for researchers from academia,
industry and research labs, for presenting recent research results in
Modeling and Simulation of Wireless and Mobile Systems. The
conference features prominent invited speakers as well as papers by
top researchers in the field. A special session will be devoted to the
proposal of new tools. 

The workshop will include contributed technical papers, invited
papers, and panel discussions. The proceedings will be published by
ACM CS-press. 

A Special Issue with ACM/Baltzer MONET/WINET is planned
which will contain selected papers from MSWiM.

Call for Papers

practical results of significance. Demonstration of new tools
