International Workshop on Modeling, Analysis & Simulation of Wireless and Mobile Systems, San Diego, Vereinigte Staaten

Mobile and wireless systems and services are rapidly becoming an integral part of our daily work and personal lives&#046; The move towards integration of services and interoperability among systems is enabling mobile and wireless networks to seamlessly extend the reach of the fixed infrastructure&#046; The resultant growth in complexity of these systems makes the performance evaluation and design of wireless systems increasingly more challenging&#046; Simulation is frequently used as an approach to cope with the variety of details typical of complex wireless and mobile systems&#046; Analytical approaches are necessary to provide a deep comprehension of system dynamics that greatly impact performance&#046;<br>This workshop will focus on all aspects of mobile and wireless systems, particularly modeling, analysis and simulation in wireless and mobile communication and computing&#046;<br>MSWiM 2003 serves as a forum for researchers from academia, industry and research labs, for presenting recent research results in Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Wireless and Mobile Systems&#046; The conference features prominent invited speakers as well as papers by top researchers in the field&#046; <b>Keywords:</b> Performance evaluation and modeling of network architectures and protocols&#046; Survivability and reliability evaluation and modeling&#046; RF channel capacity modeling and analysis&#046; Simulation methodology for large scale wireless systems Network support for QoS provisioning in wireless and mobile systems&#046; QoS based protocols for wireless and mobile systems&#046; Simulation and analysis of wireless protocols and standards Modeling and simulation of mobile computing systems Formal methods for analysis of wireless systems Visualization techniques for simulation of wireless systems Traffic measurements and models for audio, video, multimedia, and WWW services&#046; Modeling and analysis of wireless Internet access&#046; New simulation languages and tools for wireless systems&#046; Parallel and distributed simulation of wireless systems&#046; Database management systems and mobile computing (location based queries, wireless data caching, mobile transactions)&#046; Wireless data dissemination (broadcasting and indexing techniques)&#046; Ad Hoc networking and computing&#046; Mobile agents support for wireless networks&#046; Integrated simulation and measurement based evaluation of mobile and wireless systems&#046;
