CQR 2014 - 2014 International Communications Quality and Reliability (CQR) Workshop

IEEE Communications Society
2014 International Communications Quality and Reliability (CQR) Workshop
http://www.ieee-cqr.org/
The IEEE CQR International Workshop is held annually
with the purpose of bringing together industry and
academic experts to present and discuss communications
quality, reliability and security issues as they relate
to real world issues. The output from the workshops
adds to the community's body of knowledge and serves
to inform, help form opinion, and to assist in the
development of best practice and relevant standards.
Continuing the tradition of this series of workshops,
CQR 2014 will provide an international technical forum
for experts from industry and academia to exchange
ideas and present results of ongoing research in the
areas listed below. This year, special focus will be
on the challenging issues related to the requirements,
metrics, measurement, management, and dissemination of
Communications Quality & Reliability.
The Workshop has two program tracks: Industry-focused
Strategic Track and Technical Paper Track.
For the Strategic Track, 3 themes are organized into
three segments with one segment on each day. The content
of the Strategic Track will be announced later.
For questions on the Strategic Track, please contact
the General Program Co-Chairs.

addresses of the corresponding author. Paper submission
must be made via EDAS (http://edas.info/16463).
Papers accepted for CQR 2014 will be included in the
Workshop Proceedings, IEEE XPlore, and EI Index, with
the exception that IEEE reserves the right to exclude
any paper from distribution after the conference (e.g.,
removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented
