field. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Wireless Mesh Networks

* Medium access techniques and protocols for WLANs/WPANs

* Emerging standards and testbeds for WLANs/WPANs

* WLANs/WPANs protocols for smart antennas

* Energy efficiency in protocol and systems design

* Resource assignment and sharing in WLANs/WPANs

* Self configuration in WLANs/WPANs

* Provisioning quality of service in WLANs/WPANs

* Multimedia networking architectures and protocols for WLANs/WPANs

* Integration and interoperability of WLANs/WPANs and 3G (and beyond)

networks

* Interoperability issues between wireless standards/protocols and the

Internet

* User mobility and workload modeling

* Security issues in WLANs/WPANs

* OFDM Technology for Wireless LANs/PANs

* WLAN/WPAN based applications/Services
