Abstract

About the Conference<br>Future mobile networks will evolve out of existing wired and wireless networks of different nature by means of convergence, fusion and mutual penetration; next&#8211;generation multimedia services in turn pose new requirements and challenges on treatment of traffic within communication systems &#8211; a certain degree of multilayer co&#8211;operation has to be achieved&#046; This forms a framework on harmonization of results obtained separately in different areas of network research like network performance evaluation, architecture and protocol design, and low layer network design&#046; The conference goal is in the identification, investigation and integration of new algorithms, approaches, architectures, methods and mechanisms to enable proper and efficient operation of a next&#8211;generation IP&#8211;based wireless network&#046; Therefore, wireless networks and systems and their interaction with wired networks and systems shall be widely examined and addressed throughout the conference&#046;<br>The history of NEW2AN dates back to 1993, today it is an established conference featured by proceedings published by Springer LNCS (confirmed) and distinguished keynote speakers&#046;<br>The NEW2AN 2015 will be held in St&#046; Petersburg, Russia &#8211; the meeting point of East and West&#046; Through its stunning architecture and wonderful art galleries and museums, among a number of other attractions, the wealth of history of East and West can be seen and felt in this beautiful city&#046;<br>Topics of interest include but are not limited to:<br>Fundamentals and PHY<br>Channel capacity estimation and equalization<br>Channel measurement and modeling<br>Cognitive and green radio<br>Cooperative communications<br>Interference mitigation<br>Multi&#8211;antenna signal processing<br>Physical layer design<br>Power efficient communications<br>Advanced modulation schemes<br>Antennas and beamforming<br>Single and multi&#8211;user MIMO<br>Source and channel coding<br>Vehicular communications<br>MAC design and Cross&#8211;Layering<br>Adaptive and cognitive MACs<br>Cross&#8211;layer designs involving MAC<br>Implementation of testbeds and prototypes<br>Information&#8211;theoretical approaches to MAC designs<br>Radio resource management, allocation, and scheduling<br>Reconfigurable MACs<br>Routing and QoS scheduling<br>Scheduling algorithms for various systems<br>Security issues in MAC designs<br>Fixed, Mobile and Wireless Networks<br>Beyond 4G and 5G<br>Next&#8211;Generation access networking<br>Ad hoc networks<br>Body area networks<br>Cognitive radio networks<br>Congestion, load and admission control<br>Future wireless Internet<br>Internet of things<br>Mobile computing<br>Multi&#8211;hop and relay networks<br>Future Internet and Next&#8211;Generation Networking Architectures<br>Satellite communications<br>Smart cities and smart grids<br>Vehicular networks<br>Wireless sensor networks<br>Network virtualization, virtual private networks (VPN), and services<br>Network management methodologies and control plane design for Future Internet<br>Next generation network provisioning, monitoring, and management of IP services: traffic engineering, and<br>mobility support<br>Services and Applications<br>Emerging Internet applications<br>Authentication, authorization and accounting<br>Context and location&#8211;awareness in pervasive systems<br>Cyber&#8211;physical systems and applications<br>Emerging wireless and mobile applications<br>P2P services for multimedia<br>Secure network and service access<br>Self&#8211;adaptation on the service layer<br>Service discovery and portability<br>Service oriented architectures and cloud computing<br>User interfaces, user&#8211;machine interactions<br>Project management in communications industry<br>Nano Communications<br>Nano&#8211;Electromagnetic communications<br>Graphene&#8211;based nano&#8211;antennas<br>Terahertz Band communication<br>Nanomaterials for applications in communications<br>Molecular communications<br>Protocols and architectures for nano communications<br>Information theoretical approaches to nanoscale communications<br>Internet of Nano Things (IoNT)<br>Privacy, Security and Trust in nanonetworks<br>Future emerging applications of nano/molecular communications<br>
