WMNC 2016 - IFIP Wireless and Mobile Networking Conference

WMNC 2016 provides a forum for discussion for researchers, practitioners and students interested in new developments in mobile and wireless networks, services, applications and mobile computing. WMNC combines PWC (Personal Wireless Communications conference), MWCN (Mobile and Wireless Communication Networks conference), and WSAN (Wireless Sensors and Actor Networks conference) into one event.
Accepted and presented papers will be published in the conference proceedings and will be indexed in IEEEXplore. Authors of papers of special merit will be invited to send their extended versions to a Special Issue organized for this purpose in International Journals indexed in ISI Thomson and Scopus databases.
Authors are invited to submit full papers (up to 8 pages, double column) according to the guidelines available on the conference website at Authors Guidelines. WMNC 2016 includes three tacks focusing on (but not limited to) the following topics:

WMNC'2016 technical program committee invites authors to submit manuscripts with original research results that have not been previously published or that are not currently under review by another conference or journal. The following contributions are welcome: (i) Research papers reporting on new trends and developments, (ii) Application papers reporting on academia developments of technologies, products, services, systems and solutions, (iii) Performance evaluation and experimentation papers, (iv) Industry practice papers.
Submissions will be judged based on originality, significance, clarity, relevance, and correctness. All submitted papers will be subject to peer reviews by Technical Program Committee members and other experts in the field. Papers presented at the symposium will be considered for a Best Paper Award.
