CALL FOR PAPERS
IMC 2007 - The International Workshop on Internet Measurement for Wireless Networks
San Diego, California - October 23, 2007
http://im4win.cs.ucsb.edu


The International Workshop on Internet Measurement for Wireless Networks (IM4WiN) is the first
workshop to be associated with the Internet Measurement Conference (IMC).In the tradition of IMC,
the focus is on Internet measurement and analysis with the goal that papers contribute to the
current understanding of how to collect or analyze Internet measurements,or give insight into
how the Internet behaves. IM4WiN narrows this focus and goal to apply
specifically to wireless networks.

The focus of IM4WiN is on measurement and analysis of wireless networks that are already part of the
Internet or are planned to be eventually connected. Within this scope, IM4WiN is interested in papers
whose primary focus is measurement and/or analysis of data with the goal that this activity leads to
meaningful understanding of important network properties and/or new protocols, systems, technology,
and/or best practices. Papers that fall outside of this scope will not be accepted. Examples of good
topics with the IM4WiN scope include:

• Challenges in heterogeneous wireless networks (3G, WiFi, Wimax)
• Benchmarks for wireless algorithms, protocols and applications
• Operational experience concerning wireless network performance
• Prediction and inference of user access, demand and mobility
• Challenges with wireless measurements
• Experimental (in)validation of wireless network assumptions
• Metrics for wireless network performance evaluation
• Wireless network troubleshooting techniques and recommendations
• Experience with building/designing/expanding wireless networks
• Description of tools for building and/or managing test beds
• Techniques for improving experiment repeatability
• Techniques for validating wireless test bed results
• Measurement-based guidelines for network design
• Wireless security
• Wireless vehicular networks
• Wireless networking as infrastructure in developing regions
• Energy efficient protocols and design

IM4WiN is seeking up to 6 two-column pages, formatted exactly to the requirements specified on the
IMC/IM4WiN web page, and submitted according to the instructions contained therein.

Important dates for IM4WiN are:

• Registration: July 20, 2007 (11:59 EDT)
• Submission: July 27, 2007 (11:59 EDT)
• Notification: September 3, 2007
• Camera Ready: September 21, 2007 (11:59 EDT)
