FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS
International Conference on Wireless LANs, PANs and Home Networks
5 - 7 December 2001, Singapore
Conference Web Site: www.icwlhn.org
Conference Outline
The IEEE ICWLHN 2001 is the first conference to integrate technical presentations with live demos, allowing participants to see technologies
in action. It is this uniqueness that separates ICWLHN from the rest of other conferences rather than compares ICWLHN to them. The conference will focus on practical application of current technologies with an eye towards the immediate future as well as innovative research. The purpose
is to bring together engineers, practitioners, scientists, as well as industry professionals from manufacturers to service providers whose technical interests are wireless LANs (e.g., IEEE 802.11, HiperLAN, Wi-Fi) and personal area/home wireless networks (IEEE 802.15, Bluetooth,
HomeRF, WAP). In doing so, technical ideas can be exchanged, potentially
leading to the development of new innovations.

Submission Instructions
Authors should submit an electronic version of a 2000-word abstract to bennybing@icwlhn.org. Preferred file formats include Microsoft Word and Acrobat PDF. The submission should include the name, affiliation, mailing address, email address, telephone and fax numbers of the corresponding author. The submission should be compressed if the file size is larger than 1 Mbyte. In view of an anticipated large number of submissions, it is important that authors keep to the 2000-word limit and discuss key points of their abstracts as concisely as possible.
