Conference Announcement and Preliminary Call for Papers

     

                              WiOpt'05

  The 3rd International Symposium on Modeling and Optimization in
         Mobile, Ad Hoc, and Wireless Networks (WiOpt'05)

                  Trento, Italy, April 4-6, 2005

                       http://www.wiopt.org


SCOPE OF THE SYMPOSIUM
----------------------

The complexity of mobile, ad hoc, and wireless networks requires thoroughly
founded models capturing their essential characteristics and new
optimization techniques building upon such models. Insights into both the
theoretical aspects of these problems as well as practical methods and tools
are necessary. This symposium, building upon the two successful WiOpt
workshops, intends to bring together researchers and practitioners working
on optimization issues from different perspectives, including performance
analysis, mobile networking, wireless communication, and optimization
theory.

Contributions to this conference should show new modeling and optimization
techniques suitable for mobile/wireless networks or innovative applications
of these techniques to improve network operation. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:

* Modeling techniques and tools for mobile/wireless networks

* Performance characterisation & optimisation of mobile/wireless networks
  and systems

* Mobile network optimisation: Applications, algorithms, and tools

* Protocol design for optimal mobile network utilisation

* Models and optimization approaches for energy efficiency, QoS

* bandwidth economy and other aspects of mobile/wireless networks

* Models and optimization techniques for non-standard network paradigms like
  sensor, vehicular, body area networks 

* Security and co-operation models for mobile networks

* Pricing and incentives in mobile and ad-hoc networks

Papers should be submitted as extended abstracts of up to 8 pages (see
webpage for details). Selected papers from WiOpt 2005 will appear in a
special issue of ACM/Kluwer Monet.
