IEEE 4th International Workshop on
Mobile Computing and Networking Technologies
http://wmcnt.ntua.gr
3-5 October 2012
St. Petersburg, Russia
Scope
=====
The Fourth IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Computing and Networking
Technologies (WMCNT2012) will take place in conjunction with the IEEE
International Congress on Ultra Modern Telecommunications and Control
Systems (ICUMT 2012) to be held in St. Petersburg, Russia, in October 2012.
Continuing the great success of the previous events, WMCNT 2012 Workshop is
anticipated to attract a large number of high-quality submissions and
stimulate the cutting-edge research discussions among academic pioneering
researchers/scientists and industrial engineers/leaders from all around the
world.
Overview
========
Mobile computing and networking have inarguably emerged among the most
vibrant areas in the field of telecommunications today. Customers’
requirement for immediate response to their prerequisites, targeting on
access to information anywhere in the world at anytime, has increased the
demand for productivity and effectiveness of mobile computing and
networking. Moreover, the convergence of information communications
technology and computing is creating new demands and opportunities for
ubiquitous computing via wireless and mobile equipment without technological
restrictions. Considering also the diversification of access technologies
and their applications that prevail in the present telecommunication
environment, amalgamated with the increased user mobility makes QoS
provision a challenging issue. Future mobile communication networks offer a
variety of high quality applications. Furthermore, several challenges are
imposed by the demanding wireless networking environment, in terms of
network architecture, channel estimation, propagation and especially radio
resource management. The understanding of these issues becomes even more
demanding due to non-uniform spectrum allocation, various radio resource
management policies, economic concerns, the scarcity of radio resources, the
inherent transmission impairments of wireless links and user mobility.
The aim of the Fourth IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Computing and
Networking Technologies (WMCNT 2012) is to provide an international venue
for the discussion of architecture, design, implementation, analysis,
measurement, performance and simulation in wireless, mobile and ubiquitous
computing environments. WMCNT 2012 will serve as an open forum, where novel
ideas will be exchanged via bringing together researchers, developers and
engineers in both academia and industry.

Proceedings
===========
Prospective authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing
original, previously unpublished, complete research, not currently under
review by another conference or journal, addressing state-of-the-art
research and development in all areas of computer networking and wireless
communications. All papers will be peer reviewed by experts in the field and
accepted papers will be presented in oral sessions and published in the
conference proceedings, included in IEEE Xplore (approved). The submission
process is carried through the EDAS conference management system
(http://edas.info/). The manuscripts must follow the IEEE format. The
maximum paper length is of eight (8) pages including tables and figures.
Submission of a regular paper implies that at least one of the authors will
have a full registration to the Conference and present the paper upon the
acceptance of the submission. Authors of selected outstanding papers will be
invited to submit extended versions of their work for possible inclusion
into a special journal issue.
Important Dates
Paper submission: June 15, 2012
Notification of acceptance: August 5, 2012
Camera ready version paper submission/Author Registration: September 1, 2012
