WiOpt 2011, 9’th 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Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research,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 (capacity, connectivity, coverage, delay)
• Cognitive Radios
• Cross layer design and optimization
• Energy efficiency
• Game theoretic models, 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

The submission format for the papers is an extended abstract, up to
eight pages long. Please use 11 pt character size, one column text,
one-and-a-half line spacing, and letter paper. This page budget should
contain all figures, tables, references, etc. The extended abstract
should also include a brief abstract of up to 150 words.
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.).
Full papers, of up to 8 pages, in IEEE conference double column format,
will be published in the conference proceedings and will be available
via the IEEE Xplore website.

WiOpt 2011 will feature a Student Paper Award details of which will be
available on the website.
