(*** Sponsorship Requested to IEEE Communication Society ***)

WiMob is an international forum for the exchange of knowledge and

experience among researchers, developers and practitioners of wireless and

mobile technology. For fourteen years, the International WiMob conference

has provided unique opportunities for researchers and developers to interact,

share new results, show live demonstrations, and discuss emerging directions

in a number of contemporary topics in wireless and mobile computing.

WiMob 2018 is soliciting high quality technical papers addressing research

challenges in the areas of wireless communications, wireless networking,

mobility, nomadicity, ubiquitous computing, services and applications.

Papers should present original work validated via analysis, simulation or

experimentation. Practical experiences and Testbed trials also are welcome.

TOPICS

WiMob 2018 will host 5 parallel symposia on:

• Wireless Communications

• Wireless Networking, Mobility and Nomadicity

• Ubiquitous Computing, Services and Applications

• Green and Sustainable Communications and Network Computing

• Security on Wireless and Mobile Networks

A full list of topics for each symposium can be found on the conference

web site.

CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS

As part of the program of WiMob 2018, a limited number of workshops are

research results and share experiences focused on specific research areas.

Workshop proposals are solicited in all areas and topics related to wireless

networking, mobile computing, mobile and wireless communications,

pervasive computing and networking, and services and applications. All

papers accepted by the workshops will be published in the WiMob 2018

proceedings. All workshops will be held on October 15, 2018.
