Technically Co-Sponsored by:
British Computer Society (BCS)
Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEE)
Queen Mary / Fudan Joint Laboratory in Mobile Networks and Ubiquitous Computing


SCOPE

Network architecture and service model are two key topics of network research
and applications.  With the rapid development of optical and wireless
communications, chips and software, network architectures are changing and new
service models are needed.  Many research and technical challenges are being
addressed by researchers from both industries and academia.  It is viewed that
through international collaboration among several experts in different parts of
the globe, greater research excellence and achievements can be made.


OBJECTIVE

The objective of this workshop is to discuss new approaches and technologies
in the field of next generation networks (NGN), ad hoc mobile networks,
wireless sensor networks, and P2P networks.


TOPICS OF INTERESTS

The main topics of interests include, but not limited to:

*  Network architectures and services
*  Optical and wireless networks
*  Routing and scheduling
*  Application model and QoS
*  Mobile network architecture
*  MAC and QoS MAC in MANET
*  Mobile addressing
*  Mobile routing
*  Mobile applications
