Apologies, if you receive multiple copies of this CFP
============================================================================
First International Workshop on Device-to-Device Communications and
Networks (D2D2013)
To be held in conjunction with IEEE International Conference on
Communications in China (ICCC), 12-14, Aug. 2013, Xian, China
============================================================================
**Aim of the Workshop**
As more and more new mobile multimedia rich services are becoming
available to larger audiences there is an ever increasing demand for
higher data rate wireless access. Device-to-device (D2D) communication
is a promising concept to improve user experiences and resource
utilization in cellular networks, which enables two mobile devices in
proximity of each other to establish a direct local link and to bypass
the base station or access point. However, many research challenges
still exist, such as how to share resources dynamically (e.g. spectrum
and energy) between cellular communication and ad hoc D2D
communication to accommodate larger volumes of traffic and to provide
better service to users. Other challenges include: identification of
services for which D2D communication is useful; radio resource
allocation and resource management; self-organizing direct links;
proximity-based offloading, and capacity evaluation and performance
comparison.
The future D2D networks cannot operate efficiently, unless these
challenges are properly addressed. The aim of the workshop is to
bring together both the mobile communications industry (operators,
telecom vendors, and consulting firms) and academia to present and
discuss the problems, challenges, directions, and state-of-art in the
fields of future device-to-device communication and networks. In this
workshop, the advances of wireless communications that enable
device-to-device communications arising from the adoption of new
technologies will be discussed. D2D2013 seeks papers dealing with
architectural issues, theoretical studies, new paradigms, enabling
technologies, practical implementations, and policy issues for
device-to-device communication and networking problems. Besides the
technical insights, the workshop will provide a supportive environment
for technical discussions between like-minded researchers and
engineers.
**Topics of interests**
Topics of interest relating to device-to-device communications for
future wireless networks are (but not limited to):
--Mobile-to-mobile channel modeling
--Device discovery and association
--Link management and mode selection
--Power control and interference management
--MIMO techniques
--Cooperative D2D communications
--Radio resource management (RRM)
--Dynamic frequency allocation and spectrum sharing techniques
--Self-optimization and self-healing
--Mobility measurements, modeling and management
--Multi-hop D2D communications
--Heterogeneous wireless networks
--Traffic modeling and real network traffic scenarios
--Game theory and incentive mechanisms
--Security issues
--Green communications
--Capacity off-loading and emergency communications
--New services and applications
**Submission Guidelines**
D2D2013 accepts only novel, previously unpublished papers in the area
of device-to-device communications and networks. Submissions must
include an abstract, five to ten keywords, the e-mail address of the
corresponding author and should not exceed 6 pages, including tables
and figures (up to two extra pages at additional cost) in standard
IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font).
The proceedings of the workshops program will be published as the
ICCC2013 main conference, and will be also included by IEEE Digital
Library and indexed by EI.
Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that,
should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will
register for the conference and present the work, and one full
registration can cover up to 3 papers. Submissions will be conducted
electronically on the conference website:
http://www.ieee-iccc.org/submguide.html.
