WiNMee 2010 - WiNMee : International Workshop On Wireless Network Measurement

WiNMee : International Workshop On Wireless Network Measurement, Monday May 31st
In recent years we have witnessed a rapid adoption of local and wide area wireless technologies like ZigBee, 802.11n, WiMAX and 3G which is making the edge of the Internet increasingly wireless. To better understand the nature of the edge, it is important to evaluate these technologies in an operational environment via empirical measurements. While analytic simulation-based approaches are useful, they are often limited by the simplistic modeling of the wireless protocols and the error-prone wireless channel. In this workshop we would like to solicit short 6-page papers that advance the understanding of operational wireless networks through measurements in testbeds or the field. Topic of interest are, but not limited to:

operational experience of the performance of wireless networks
challenges with wireless measurements
experimental (in) validation of assumptions in a wireless environment
metrics that would be required in a wireless network for performance evaluation or wireless network troubleshooting
experience from building/designing wireless networks
descriptions of tools for building and/or managing wireless testbeds (e.g. wireless link emulation)
techniques for scaling testbed
techniques for improving the repeatability of tests
techniques for validating the results obtained in the wireless testbed
methods for simplifying experiment setup and reconfiguration
methods to study mobility patterns
