-------------------------------------------------------- 1st International Symposium on Wireless Pervasive Computing 2006 16 - 18 January 2006, Phuket, Thailand
Technically Sponsored by IEEE Communications Society Hosted by Suranaree University of Technology, Thailand
IMPORTANT DATES
Last date for submitting of papers, proposals for tutorials and panel sessions: August 1, 2005 Notification of Acceptance: September 15, 2005 Last date for submission of camera-ready versions of accepted papers: November 15, 2005
Wireless pervasive computing is a rapidly growing area increasingly attracting attention due to its potential impact on the quality of lifestyles of individuals. This can only be made possible by integrating technologies from the fields of communications , signal processing , computing and numerous other fields. This symposium aims to provide a platform for researchers in the collective area of wireless pervasive computing or any of the related areas to showcase their results, launch new ideas, as well as to interact with colleagues from this area.
The scope of the symposium covers concepts and all enabling technologies of wireless pervasive computing. This includes a huge variety of topics ranging from wireless communications and networking to services and applications of pervasive computing . A series of panel and tutorials will also seek to inform and invoke interaction among researchers which are interested in this area.
Topics of interest include but are NOT LIMITED to the following: . PCS, GPRS, EDGE, 3GPP, UMTS, GSM and B3G systems . Bluetooth technologies . Air interfaces (e.g. CDMA, OFDM, TDMA) . Dynamic spectrum management . Signal processing . Wireless access techniques . Multirate and multicarrier communications . Detection and estimation . Signal separation and interference rejection . Power control . Interference avoidance . Wireless systems design . Propagation and channel characterization . Diversity techniques & equalization . UWB . Multi-user Detection . MIMO systems . WiMAX . Cooperative coding and algorithms . WLANs and WPANs . RF systems . Coding and modulation techniques . Location management techniques . Localization and tracking techniques . Wireless multimedia . Switching and routing techniques . Wireless multicasting . Wireless network architecture . Ad hoc networks . Wireless sensor networks . Speech and video processing . Wireless security . Security applications . Wearable devices . Middleware . Multimedia systems . Resource management and interference management . Healthcare applications
PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Acceptance will be based on an extended abstract of about 1500 words (two pages in the standard IEEE conference format). The extended abstract should include diagrams, initial results, and details required for the reviewers to assess the contribution of your work. A short summary of approximately 150 words is also required at the time of submission of the extended abstract. Extended abstracts must be submitted electronically by August 1, 2005, via EDAS (http://edas.info). PANEL SESSIONS & TUTORIALS
Proposals for Tutorial and Panel Sessions are also being solicited. Tutorials (half-day or full-day sessions) are intended to provide in-depth learning on a specific topic of interest to the participants. Panel sessions are 60 minutes long. They present leaders in a particular area discussing a topic of interest within the scope of the symposium. Proposals for Tutorials and Panel sessions should consist of 1000 words summary, a 150 word abstract, and a cover page listing the details of the author(s).
