Scope:
Wireless communication
along with mobile computing are becoming a necessity rather than a luxury, and
with a wide range of application domains which include smart
environments, wireless sensor networks, health care, industry, multimedia
applications and intelligent transport systems just to name few. This
advancement in wireless and mobile technologies introduces new challenging
requirements and issues for researchers.
PAEWN’11
will represent an international forum for researchers from both academia and
industry to expose the latest trends, research findings, and emerging issues in
wireless and mobile computing. This workshop will focus on the
development and application of analytical modeling, simulation, prototype
test-bed, and measurement-based performance evaluation techniques to the area
of wireless and mobile communication networks.
The topics of interest include, but are not
limited to:
· Stochastic modelling and performance evaluation of
wireless, sensor and mobile networks and devices
· Design and analysis
of wireless networks and protocols
·
Quality of Service provisioning in wireless/mobile systems
·
Wireless/Mobile network architectures
·
Resource and data management in mobile, wireless and ad hoc
networks
· Security issues in mobile
/wireless/ad-hoc networks
· Energy saving protocols for
wireless/mobile/sensor networks
· Algorithms and modelling for
tracking and locating mobile users
· Admission control and
congestion control protocols
· Evaluation of scalability and
reliability in wireless/mobile networks
· Cross-layer design and
optimization
· Traffic modelling in
wireless/mobile systems
· Mobility management and
handover issues
·
Evaluation of medium access control and routing algorithms in
wireless/mobile/ad-hoc networks
· Simulation models for
optimisation of scarce resources
· Integration of ad hoc and
sensor networks with broadband wireless network infrastructures
· Performance case studies and
industrial reports
· Improvement in system
performance through optimization and tuning
· Case studies showing the role
of evaluation in the design of systems
