CONTENTS

WIRELESS NETWORKS, ISSN 1022-0038, Co-published with the ACM (Association
for Computing Machinery)
The journal of mobile communication, computation and information

Engineering, University of Massachusetts,  Amherst MA 01003, USA

Aims & Scope:

The wireless communication revolution is bringing fundamental changes to
communication and computing. From wide-area cellular systems to wireless
LANs, mobile and wireless networks are on the verge of providing fully
distributed and ubiquitous mobile computing and communications any time,
anywhere.Through a seamless integration with fixed network infrastructures
the future promises a universal communication grid, bringing an end to the
tyranny of geography. A parallel evolution and proliferation of services
for the mobile user are changing the scope of communication and the nature
of user and machine interaction paradigms. Wireless Networks will serve as
the publication vehicle for high-quality, in-depth original articles
addressing networks, systems, algorithms, and applications that support the
symbiosis of portable computers, wireless networks, mobile communication
and computation, and their integration into the global network of the
future.

Regularly addressed topics will include: Network architectures for nomadic
LAN to WAN communication and computation; mobile and wireless
communications protocols, media access control algorithms, algorithms for
mobility and mobility management including hand-off, registration,
location, tracking, and routing; performance evaluation of mobile/wireless
networks; systems topology design including cell architectures, capacity
allocation and coverage issues, mobility, bandwidth, or intermittent
connectivity related communication and computing issues; network
management, control and signaling; security, scalability and reliability
issues; database design and management for mobility; software principles,
operating systems and resource management for nomadic computing; service
integration and interworking of wired and wireless networks; applications,
computing services and service algorithms in the mobile environment;
enabling technologies for wireless and mobile communication including
wireless signal propagation studies, portable hardware technologies, energy
efficient and low-power design and components; network demonstrations,
experimentation, and testbeds.
