WiMob-CWN 2015 - Second International Workshop on Cooperative Wireless Networks

CWN 2015 will take place in Abu Dhabi, UAE on October 19, 2015, collocated with the 11th IEEE International Conference on Wireless and Mobile Computing, Networking and Communications (WiMob 2015).
The aim of this workshop is to provide a space for researchers and technologists to present new ideas and contributions in cooperative wireless networks, a key element for the advance of the Future Internet. The concept of cooperation can be applied to a wide scope of technologies, systems and applications, in order to achieve an efficient use of the spectrum (cognitive radio), extended network coverage (cooperative diversity, multi-hop relaying), improved performance and reliability (network coding, cross-layer protocols) and user safety (vehicular networks, emergency networks), among other aspects.
The organizers of this workshop invite prospective authors to submit high-quality technical papers addressing, but not limited to, the following topics of interest:
Dynamic resource allocation in wireless cooperative networks
Cross-layer management and protocols for cooperative networks
Cross-layer design and optimization for cooperative networks
Control and management in cooperative networks
Network coding in cooperative networks
Cognitive radio and spectrum management
Cooperative communications: multi-hop and hierarchical relaying
Cooperative diversity
Information theory aspects of cooperation
Power management in wireless cooperative networks
Cooperative compensation policies
Multimedia transmission in cooperative networks
Cooperation in 5G networks
Cooperation in software defined networks
Cooperation in Wireless Sensor Networks
Cooperation in Vehicular Wireless Networks
Performance analysis in cooperative networks
Applications and services over cooperative networks
Test-beds and experimentation on cooperative networks
