HMWN 2010 - The International Workshop on Heterogeneous Multimedia Wireless Networks (HMWN 2010)

The technologies for wireless networks, such as cellular networks, satellite, Wi-Fi, WiMAX, wireless sensor networks (WSNs), wireless personal area networks (WPANs), wireless local area networks (WLANs), and wireless metropolitan area networks (WMANs) have evolved quickly during the past years. As the wireless network traffic is constantly growing at an alarming rate, wireless multimedia applications will dominate the future wireless communication society pointing to the crucial need for the integration of different wireless technologies that emerges as an effective approach to accommodate the increasing demand of users to communicate with each other and access the Internet.

This workshop will bring together computer scientists and engineers in different disciplines to share and exchange their experiences and ideas and discuss state-of-the-art and in-progress research on all aspects of heterogeneous wireless networks.
