                                Call for Papers
The Fourth International Workshop on Performance Evaluation of Wireless 
                              Networks (PEWiN-2012)
                         (Xining, China, August 16-18, 2012)
                        http://people.chu.edu.tw/~pewin/2012

(Co-located with the 5th IET International Conference on Ubi-media Computing 
(U-Media 2012), http://umedia.lzu.edu.cn/)

Workshop on Performance Evaluation of Wireless Networks (PEWiN), as an 
international workshop, 
is devoted to deeper understanding in the performance evaluation and 
simulation techniques of 
wireless networks including mobile ad hoc networks, wireless sensor 
networks, vehicular ad hoc 
networks, underwater sensor networks, and all kinds of wireless networks. 
Wireless networks raise 
a number of interesting and undiscovered performance evaluation and 
simulation issues, while 
traditional techniques are not sufficient to analyze, evaluate, and simulate 
proposed wireless 
algorithms or systems in the right way. For example, the algorithms and 
systems in vehicular ad 
hoc networks require a high degree of communication reliability, short 
communication delay, 
scalability, security, and privacy-preserving technologies under harsh 
condition. Researchers 
not only need to design practical distributed and centralized algorithms, 
but also need to introduce 
novel theoretical models or evaluation methodologies to challenge various 
kinds of research problems 
originated from these wireless networks. The workshop is intended to 
encourage idea sharing and 
cooperation among researchers in wireless networks, and push the theoretical 
and practical research
forward for a deeper understanding in the theoretical modeling, evaluation 
and analysis techniques,
and simulation methods in wireless networks.

PEWiN-2012 is in conjunction with the 5th IET International Conference on 
Ubi-media Computing (U-Media 2012)
and all accepted papers will be published in IET/IEEE digital library and 
included in EI index.

All submissions must describe original research, not published or currently 
under review for another 
workshop, conference, or journal. Papers must not exceed six single-spaced, 
double-column pages using 
10 pt size fonts on 8.5?11 inch pages in IEEE style format. Papers (PDF 
version) must be submitted 
electronically via PEWiN 2012 website.

Selected best papers from PEWiN-2012 will be invited to the second round 
process of a special issue of 
International Journal of Ad Hoc and Ubiquitous Computing (IJAHUC, SCI 
indexed). More information about 
this special issue can be found in the following website.
