WWW 2012 - Wireless World 2020 Workshop

Wireless World 2020 Workshop
**** CALL FOR PAPERS ? Wireless World 2020 Workshop ****
With the rapid proliferation of advanced wireless communication technologies and services, wireless communications are now facing many emerging challenges, including prominently spectrum demand and network capacity limitations. There has been dramatic growth of subscriber base, and increasing dependence of world economy and society on wireless communications.
The challenge of this workshop is to identify the key technologies and enablers that will help to form the Wireless World in the era beyond 2020.
The workshop is sponsored by the Wireless World Research Forum (WWRF). WWRF’s goal is to encourage global research that will achieve unbounded communications to address key societal challenges for the future. The term “Wireless World” is used in a broad sense to address the support of innovation and business, social inclusion and infrastructural challenges. This will be achieved by creating a range of new technological capabilities from wide-area networks to short-range communications, machine-to-machine communications, sensor networks, wireless broadband access technologies and optical networking, along with increasing intelligence and virtualization in networks. This will support a dependable future Internet of people, knowledge and things and the development of a service universe.
Submissions from academia, industry, regulators and application developers are invited. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Air Interfaces and enabling technologies
- Interference management and flexible radio resources allocation
- Novel system concept architectures based on centralized and/or distributed principles
- Security, privacy and trust analysis
- Spectrum management and cognitive network design
- Internet of Things enablers and applications
The Wireless World 2020 Workshop will base its reviews on the submission of a 5-page full paper through the conference website at http://vtc12f-workshops.trackchair.com.
IMPORTANT DATES:
Submission due: 21 April 2012
Notification of acceptance: 14 May 2012
Camera-ready of full paper due: 11 June 2012
