                       1st Workshop on 
          multiMedia Applications over Wireless Networks             
                       (MediaWiN 2006)

                        April 2, 2006
                        Athens, Greece

   In conjunction with 12th European Wireless Conference (EW 2006)
              (http://www.telecom.ece.ntua.gr/EW2006)

Scope
The purpose of the MediaWiN 2006 Workshop is to provide a forum for 
presenting and
discussing recent advances in multimedia systems, services and 
applications over wireless
networks. In particular, the Workshop will bring together leading 
researchers, industry
professionals and academics from companies, governmental agencies, and 
universities
around the world to exchange information and new findings as well as to 
study the special
problems and challenges of the multimedia mobile and wireless environments.

Topics of Interest
The workshop will only accept for review original papers that have not been
previously published and are not currently under review by another 
conference or journal.
Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to the 
following:

Quality and Reliability of Wireless Multimedia

    * Providing QoS over wireless networks (Scheduling, Call admission
      Control and Rate control,packetization schemes, prioritization
      schemes)
    * Cross-Layer techniques for multimedia communications over wireless
      networks
    * Provisioning, monitoring, and management of IP services for
      WPANs/WLANs
    * Traffic charging and accounting of integrated systems and services
    * Multimedia support over multi-hop wireless networks (mesh, ad-hoc,
      sensor networks)

Performance Modeling and Analysis of High-speed Wireless PANs and LANs

    * Performance evaluation of multimedia services via analysis,
      simulation and experiments (voice, video, interactive gaming)
    * Design, implementation and testbed/experimental results for
      wireless multimedia systems
    * Energy efficiency in wireless multimedia protocols

Emerging Standards and Technologies for Wireless Multimedia Communications

    * Performance of VoIP, VoD services and related protocols (IPv4,
      IPv6, H.323, SIP,RTP,RTCP)
    * Standardization activities in emerging standards: IEEE 802.11,
      802.15, 802.16
    * New network architectures and management solutions for WLANs (IEEE
      802.11v,CAPWAP)
    * Emerging and visionary multimedia applications for wireless mobile
      networks
    * Authentication and security issues in wireless multimedia systems
