Welcome to the 12th ACM International Conference on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Wireless and Mobile Systems (MSWiM), and to beautiful Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain. Over the years, MSWiM has established itself as a major research venue where numerous key results in the area of performance evaluation of wireless and mobile systems have appeared.
This year, we have a very strong program consisting of an excellent selection of regular and short papers. The program also includes a poster session and a demo/tool session. We are happy to have three keynote addresses, one on each day of the main conference, from outstanding experts. Specifically, we would like to thank Prof. Dr.-Ing. Ralf Steinmetz (Technical University of Darmstadt, Germany), Prof. Stephan Olariu (Old Dominion University, USA), and Prof. Hossam Hassanein (Queen's University, Canada) for delivering this year's keynote speeches.
Along with the main conference program, three symposia and two workshops will be held, covering several specializations within mobile and wireless systems. These five events are successful and quite competitive in their own right. The three symposia cover the following areas: mobility management and wireless access (MobiWAC), Performance evaluation of ad hoc and sensor networks (PE-WASUN), and QoS and Security of wireless networks (Q2SWinet). The workshops cover Wireless Multimedia Networks (WMuNeP), and measurement of wireless and heterogeneous networks (PM2HW2N).
Combining simulations, models and testbeds: possibilities and pitfalls
Recently, the development in the area of decentralized systems and infrastructureless networks opened avenues for novel applications. A prominent example is the support of on-site units in large scale emergency response scenarios. Here, a combination of ...
Resource management in broadband wireless access networks
The success of emerging Broadband Wireless Access Networks (BWANs) such as 4G wireless cellular networks championed by Long Term Evolution (LTE) and IEEE 802.16 broadband wireless networks (WiMAX) will depend, among other factors, on their ability to ...
NOTICE: an architecture for traffic incident detection
Road and traffic safety can be improved if the drivers have the ability to see further down the road and can be informed of relevant traffic events, including collisions and slow-downs. The recently proposed VANETs (Vehicular Ad hoc Networks) are ...
