WNM 2013 - The 4th International Workshop on Wireless Networks and Multimedia (WNM-2013)

The 4th International Workshop on Wireless Networks and Multimedia
(WNM-2013)
To be held in conjunction with The 11th IEEE International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing with Applications (ISPA-2013)
16-18 July 2013, Melbourne, Australia
The wireless communication technologies have evolved quickly over the past years. As the explosive growth in broadband wireless networks, multimedia applications will dominate the future wireless communication society, resulting in non-trivial problems in terms of available capacity, reliability, quality-of-service, delay, and throughput.
To successfully support wireless multimedia applications, it is necessary to improve the state-of-the-art techniques (such as radio resource management, mobility, handoff, and location management, etc) in the multimedia transmission over wireless networks in order to provide quality-of-service guarantees between the end-users and achieve a high quality-of-experience for end-users.
This workshop will address the important problems and challenges caused by the transmission of multimedia applications over wireless networks. The workshop aims to bring together computer scientists and engineers in different disciplines to share and exchange their experience and ideas and discuss state-of-the-art and in-progress research on all aspects of wireless networks and multimedia applications.
Topics of particular interests include the following tracks, but are not limited to:
Ultra-Wideband Networks
