CALL FOR PAPERS

IEEE WiMob is an international forum for the exchange of knowledge and experience among researchers, developers and practitioners of wireless and mobile technology. For six years, the International IEEE WiMob conference has provided unique opportunities for researchers and developers to interact, share new results, show live demonstrations, and discuss emerging directions in Wireless Communications, Mobile Networking and Ubiquitous Computing.

IEEE WiMob 2011 will be held in Shanghai. At the confluence between East and West, North and South, Shanghai is the city that never sleeps. Shanghai provides unique facilities and attractions for international meetings and a point of convergence for academics and industrialists. The International IEEE WiMob 2011 conference will be hosted by Shanghai Jiao Tong University and aims to disseminate advances in hardware and software technologies that support pervasive 3G, 4G, Wi-Fi, Wi-MAX and LTE applications.

The IEEE WiMob 2011 technical program will deliver high quality technical papers that will be reviewed and selected by an international program committee. IEEE WiMob 2011 will host three parallel symposia. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
