11th IEEE International Symposium on a
World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks

http://wowmom2010.netgroup.uniroma2.it/

14-17 June 2010
Montreal, QC Canada


---------------------------------------------------------------
CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS

The next IEEE International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile
and Multimedia Networks (WoWMoM 2010) will be the 11th event in
its series. This symposium intends to provide a definitive forum
for networking, software systems and multimedia research in the
wireless/mobile area involving both computer science and
electrical engineering communities.

The WoWMoM Organizing Committee invites proposals for
workshops affiliated with the conference. The purpose of these
workshops is to provide a platform for presenting novel ideas in
a less formal and possibly more focused way than at the
conference itself. Affiliated workshops will be held prior to
the main conference. All papers included in the WoWMoM 2010 Workshops
will appear in the conference proceedings published by IEEE.

Workshops Proposals are solicited in all areas and topics pertaining to
wireless mobile and multimedia networking.
Workshops addressing emerging research directions in these areas
are highly welcome.

Each workshop proposal must include:
- The name of the workshop.
- The names, addresses, and a short bio of the organizers.
- A brief description (up to 1 page) of the technical issues
  that the workshop will address, and the reasons why the
  workshop is of interest at this time.
- The names of potential program committee members.
- The planned format of the workshop, including a strategy to
  facilitate lively discussions and attendees involvement.
- If applicable, a description of past versions of the workshop,
  including dates, organizers, number of submitted and accepted
  papers, number of attendees.
- If the workshop does not have any past editions,
  an estimate of the expected number of submitted and accepted
  papers, and of the expected number of attendees.
- A tentative call for papers.
- A description of the plans for publicity and workshop web site.

Workshop proposals should be submitted, no later than October 15, 2009,
by e-mail (in PDF format) with "WoWMoM 2010 Workshop Proposal" in the
subject,
to *both* WoWMoM 2010 Workshop Co-Chairs
at the address wowmom2010proposals@iit.cnr.it.
