CALL FOR PAPERS                          


2nd ACM International Workshop on Performance Monitoring, Measurement,
and Evaluation of Heterogeneous Wireless and Wired Networks- PM2HW2N'07
 
http://www.i3a.uclm.es/pm2hw2n07/


To be held in conjunction with 
10th ACM/IEEE International Symposium on  Modeling, Analysis and Simulation 
of Wireless and Mobile Systems - MSWiM'07
http://www.cs.unibo.it/projects/mswim2007/

October 22 - 26, 2007
Chania, Crete Island, Greece


SCOPE:
Wireless networks, including ad hoc, sensor, along with ubiquitous, have
witnessed over the past few years their fastest growth period and have
become increasingly complex. Nonetheless, their performance evaluation
and analysis have been conducted mostly through software simulations
(e.g. using ns-2 or OPNET tools). Very recently, some research efforts
have been directed towards measuring real-world commercial and
experimental networks; constructing models based on real-world data and
using prototypes to more realistically and comprehensively evaluate the
suggested solutions and more specifically validate the assumptions and
the conclusions reached via the simulation approach.

The monitoring, measurements, and evaluation of heterogeneous wired and
wireless mobile networks poses a new set of unique challenges due to the
unique inherent properties of these systems and due to the
characteristics of the wireless transmission medium.

The aim of this workshop, whose 1st edition was held in 2006 in
Torremolinos (Spain), is to bring together scientists, engineers, and
practitioners to share and exchange their experiences, discuss
challenges, and report state-of-the-art and in-progress research on all
aspects of performance measurements, monitoring, and evaluation of
heterogeneous wired and wireless mobile networks, including, wireless ad
hoc, sensor, and ubiquitous networks.
