****    NEW SUBMISSION DEADLINE (EXTENDED): JANUARY 30, 2011     *******

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next generation mobile networks will be based on Internet core  
networks and wireless access networks. The need for efficient merging  
of the wired and wireless infrastructure as well as the new multimedia  
services and applications of next generation networks call for novel  
network architectures, protocols and traffic-related mechanisms,  
merging and assembling different network technologies features. WWIC  
addresses research topics such as the design and evaluation of  
protocols, the dynamics of the integration, the performance
tradeoffs, the need for new performance metrics, and cross-layer interactions.

The goal of the conference is to present high-quality results in the  
field, and to provide a framework for research collaboration through  
focused discussions that will designate future research efforts and  
directions. In this context, the program committee will accept only a  
limited number of papers that meet the criteria of originality,  
presentation quality and topic relevance. WWIC is a single-track  
conference which has reached, within 8 years, the highest level of  
quality, which is reflected both in the level of participation
as well as the acceptance ratio and the amount and quality of  
submitted papers.

Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published by  
Springer in the Lecture Notes of Computer Science (LNCS) Series.  
Extended versions of conference selected papers will be considered for  
publication in an special issue of an international journal.

Following the conference tradition there will also be a Best Paper Award.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- AAA in mobile environments
- Ambient networks
- Ad-hoc mobile networks
- Blended network configurations
- Beyond 3G networks technologies
