The 11th Intl. Symposium on Modeling and Optimization in Mobile, Ad Hoc, and
Wireless Networks (WiOpt 2013)

May 13-17, 2013, Tsukuba Science City, Japan



Technically sponsored by the IEEE Information Theory Society, IEEE Control
Systems Society



Scope of the Symposium

WiOpt 2013, the 11th International Symposium on Modeling and Optimization in
Mobile, Ad Hoc, and Wireless Networks, intends to bring together researchers
and practitioners working on modeling and optimization of wireless network
design and operations. It welcomes original, high-quality works on different
perspectives, including performance analysis and simulation, algorithms and
protocol design, optimization theory and application, information theoretic
analysis including capacity scaling, for all forms of wireless networks:
cellular, metropolitan, ad hoc, delay-tolerant, mesh, sensor networks as
well as any combination of these.



Contributions to the symposium should improve the state-of-the-art in
design, analysis, dimensioning and operations of wireless network by
providing insights into theoretical aspects as well as providing practical
methods and tools. All forms of wireless networks are of interest: from
cellular wide-area and local-area networks to dense and sparse ad-hoc
networks; domain specific vehicular, public-transport and personal-area
networks as well as application-specific sensor networks. Technical papers
describing original, previously unpublished research, not currently under
review by another conference are solicited.



Topics of relevance include, but are not limited to, the following ones:

*Asymptotic system properties, e.g., capacity, connectivity, coverage, delay


*Cognitive radios

*Cross-layer design and optimization

*Dynamic spectrum management

*Energy efficiency

*Game theoretic models, contract, pricing, and incentives

*Interference in wireless networks

*Mobility modeling and management

*Modeling, simulations, and performances analysis

*Network and multi-user information theory

*Network protocol design

*Opportunistic and cooperative communications

*Optimal control of network operations

*Optimization of network design

*Routing protocols

*Scalability and manageability of network architectures

*Security in wireless networks



Submissions



Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished research papers. The
length of the manuscripts will be limited to 8 pages (IEEE conference double
column style). Please use 10 pt character size, double column text. The
submission will be handled via EDAS system (http://edas.info/). Only PDF
files are acceptable; please make sure that the paper prints without
problems (take care to embed all required fonts, etc.).



All submissions will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity,
and soundness. Each paper will be reviewed by at least two to three
researchers in the topic area. At least one author of each accepted paper is
required to register and present the paper at the conference. The accepted
papers will be published in the conference proceedings and will be available
via the IEEE Xplore website. Best Paper Awards and Best Student Paper Awards
(the first author should be a full-time student) will be granted.
