About PIMRC 2005

   PIMRC enjoys an outstanding reputation and represents a new trend in
   international conferences, one which is well suited to the evolving global
   market. It is uniquely identified by:
     * Balance among academia, industry, and  governmental organisations,
     * Truly international technical program endorsed  by IEEE, IEE, IEICE and
       VDE,
     * Flexible organisation tailored to the conference venue.

   The convergence of systems and the all-IP approach have become important
   concepts for wireless communications. PIMRC 2005 for the first time offers a
   platform to bring together the computer networking and wireless
   communications research communities. Accordingly, contributions are
   encouraged from the networking research community that address Telco- and IP

Conference City

   For the first time PIMRC takes place in Berlin, the old and new German
   capital in the centre of Europe. No other city in Germany reflects the
   historical events of the last few years and even for the last century to the
   extent Berlin does.

Venue

   The ICC Berlin, Europe's largest convention centre, is located centrally
   within Berlin, a vibrant city now situated at the heart of the new Europe.

   An effective local transport system and taxi network ensure that all sites
   in the city can be reached quickly and conveniently. There are numerous
   busses and an underground station which serve the ICC Berlin. Berlin is easy
   to reach from all over the globe .. and Tegel Airport is a mere 10 minute
   drive away from the ICC Berlin. Schönefeld Airport is linked directly to the
   ICC Berlin via one of the suburban rail lines (S-Bahn).

   Berlin is a city in transition, one that is not always easy to understand,
   and which is often quite difficult to describe. However, no other city in
   Germany reflects the historical events of the last few years to the extent
   Berlin does. Today, Berlin is the workshop of German unity. As the capital
   of Germany and the seat of the Federal German Government and Parliament,
   Berlin is a microcosm of German Unification. It is developing into a
   metropolis of science, culture, media and business. The universities and
   research institutes, the opera houses, theatres, museums and libraries are
   just as much attractions to this city as its colourful neighbourhoods and
   the charming landscape of woods and lakes surrounding it.
