* Scope and Motivation*

The ever increasing market penetration of smart-phones, tablets, and 
netbooks, along with the ubiquitous availability of wireless networks 
are deeply influencing the way people live, work, interact, and 
socialize. However, the broad popularity and diffusion of innovative 
services and applications tailored at mobile users is also raising 
challenging research issues that require us to rethink available 
mobile technology solutions to meet the emerging needs of a broader 
and ever growing user base.

The goal of iCOST'2012 is to bring together researchers and 
scientists to present and discuss advances on selected topics in 
Mobile & Wireless Networking. The conference aims to address recent 
research results and to present their methodologies, models, 
technologies, systems, tools, applications, work in progress and experiences.
