CFP : 2nd International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems 2005
CALL FOR PAPERS
5 - 7 September 2005, University of Siena - Via Banchi di Sotto, 55, Siena, Italy
Technically sponsored by IEEE Communication Society
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The objective of this symposium is to provide a forum for researchers and
technologists to present new ideas and contributions in the form of
technical papers, panel discussions as well as testbed implementations and
real-world evaluation of many ideas in wireless communications. This second
symposium, intends to bring together various wireless communication systems
developers to discuss the current status, technical challenges, standards,
fundamental issues, and future services and applications in the form of
panels and tutorials. ISWCS’05 seeks to address and capture highly
innovative and state of the art research from the wireless industry. The
scope of the conference includes a wide range of technical challenges in
view of the growing interest for wireless access to Internet, the evolution
of future wireless communications with access across hybrid platforms, the
definition of a crosslayer design for improving the efficiency and the
performance of the air interface.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
• Hybrid wireless communication systems
• Radio resource management and allocation
• Wireless access techniques
• Cross-layer air interface design
• Mobile Internet
• Innovation in satellite communications
• Wireless privacy and security
• Wireless services and applications
• Wireless IP
• Wireless network architecture and technologies systems
• Digital signal processing
• MANET
• End-to-End QoS provision
• Coding modulation and equalization
• DVB and DAB techniques
• Novel wireless switching and routing techniques
• Mobility management
• Antenna and RF subsystems
• MIMO
• Traffic control and engineering
• UWB
• Wireless sensor networks
• Innovative services and applications
PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Acceptance will be based on an extended abstract (NOT the full paper) of
about 1500 words (two pages in the standard IEEE conference format). The
extended abstract should include diagrams, initial results, and other detail
required for the reviewers to be able to assess the contribution of your
work. In addition to the extended abstract, a short paper description
(approx. 150 words). Extended abstract must be submitted electronically by
May 1, 2005, via the conference Web site: http://www.iswcs.org/
Submission Instructions: The interested author should go under EDAS at the
"ISWCS 2005" row and click under submission and management for the row
labeled as "ISWCS 2005 Main Symposium".
PANEL SESSIONS & TUTORIALS
Proposals for Tutorial and Panel Sessions are also being solicited.
Tutorials (half-day or full-day sessions) are intended to provide in-depth
learning on a specific topic of interest to the participants. Panel sessions
are 60 minutes long. They present leaders in a particular area discussing a
topic of interest to the attendees of ISWCS 2005. Proposals for Tutorials
and Panel sessions should consist of 1000 words summary, a 150 word
abstract, and a cover page listing the details of the author(s).
