Apologies for any duplicate postings. ======================================================= Call For Papers - Deadline: EXTENDED TO 12 May 2011 WDN 2011 International Workshop on Wireless Distributed Networks Date and Location: September 11, 2011, Toronto, Canada http://www.icwdn.org/wdn2011 ======================================================= We would like to invite prospective authors to submit technical papers to International Workshop on Wireless Distributed Networks (WDN 2011), which will be held in conjunction with PIMRC 2011, 11 September, 2011, Toronto, Canada. Authors are encouraged to submit original, high quality research papers addressing the below stated areas. * IMPORTANT DATES: ***Notice***Notice***Notice***Notice*** EXTENDED TO 12 May, 2011 *********************************** 3 June, 2011 Notification of acceptance 30 June, 2011 Final Camera Ready Copy 11 Sept, 2011 Workshop * SCOPE: With diversification of wireless access technologies and their application fields, the role of wireless access is no longer the last hop terminal access, but also for repeating functionality such as mesh/multi-hop /ad-hoc/sensor networking. Thereby more complicated wireless network management, especially radio resource management is required to organize the networks well as a whole. As the optimal wireless resource management based on a centralized control policy becomes difficult to implement in practice, distributed and/or cooperative control techniques should be introduced in necessary parts in any layer, such as distributed antenna, cognitive radio, distributed MAC, and dynamic heterogeneous networking. Even in a cellular system, the design of distributed control strategies becomes a key issue for realizing cooperative/coordinated MIMO and multi-hop cellular networks. * TOPICS AREAS: The main purpose of this workshop is to systematize the academic basis over the various topics in wireless distributed networks as listed below, and to discuss the adaptability of these new technologies to enhance the performance of wireless distributed networks. -Application- Ad-hoc network, Multi-hop network, Mesh network, Sensor network, Self-organized network, Advanced cellular network, Heterogeneous network, and Cooperative transmission system, Smart utility network, Wireless grid -Technology- BS/AP cooperation, Cooperative sensing, Cooperative relay, Cross layer optimization, Distributed MAC, Distributed MIMO, Distributed RRM /Scheduling, Interference alignment, Network coding, Spatial spectrum sharing, Super position coding, Virtual antenna array -Theory- Array signal processing, Bayesian network, Convex optimization, Decomposition methods, Game theory, Graph theory, Multi-dimensional Information theory * SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Papers should be in English, not exceeding 5 double-column (overlength pages will be charged for). and should follow IEEE paper templates. Papers need to be uploaded to the EDAS (http://edas.info//N10647). Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE Xplore and orally presented at the workshop.
