CfP: The 1st International Workshop on Communication Systems with Extreme
Contexts

DEADLINE EXTENDED TO: NOV 19, 2012
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

IEEE WCNC xCOM Workshop 2013

The First International Workshop on
Communication Systems with Extreme Contexts

http://www.ieee-xcom.org/

co-located with
IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC 2013)

April 7, 2013
Shanghai, China

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Aims and Scope
With the advances of the hardware/software capabilities and application
needs, communication systems are used or expected to be used in extreme
situations, such as deep-ground, deep-water, deep-space, or deeply- embedded
systems.  Such extreme scenarios may require transformative techniques to
realize communication systems for them.  For example, deep-ground
applications may need communication systems working in extremely low
frequency channels while the size and the energy consumption of such systems
are challenging factors.  Another example is that research on satellite
communications leads to innovations in Terahertz communication systems.
There also exists a good amount of work that focuses on reducing energy
consumption of communication systems to extremely-low levels.

Topics of interest include, but not limited to, wireless communications
systems operating in extremely challenging environments, such as:
- Underground communications in deep earth;
- Underwater communications in deep sea;
- Air-borne communications in deep space;
- Communications in extremely remote areas;
- Communications in extremely low power in highly noisy environments;

and/or requiring new approaches in:
- Spectrum utilization in very/extremely low or high frequencies, e.g.
Terahertz wireless communication and radio resource management;
- System architecture design and realization, e.g. form factor
miniaturization and energy efficiency maximization; and
- Protocol design and system applications.

Call for Papers
Prospective authors are encouraged to submit a 6-page IEEE conference style
paper (including all text, figures, and references) through EDAS submission
system (https://edas.info/N13335?c=13335). Accepted papers must be
registered and presented at the workshop by one of the authors. All papers
selected for publication will be published together with IEEE WCNC 2013
proceedings and will be available on IEEE Xplore database.

Important Dates:
- Paper Submission: November 19, 2012;
- Notification of Acceptance: December 17, 2012;
- Final Paper: January 15, 2013.
