                        CALL FOR PAPERS

                          SpaSWiN 2012
                          
              8th Workshop on Spatial Stochastic 
                 Models for Wireless Networks

               May 14, 2012, Paderborn, Germany. 
              Held in conjunction with WiOpt 2012.

The performance of wireless networks depends critically on the spatial
configuration of the transmitters, receivers and relaying nodes. As a
result, the modeling of such networks requires methods and tools from
point process theory, stochastic geometry and random graph theory. The
art of modeling wireless networks is strongly multi-disciplinary,
combining these spatial, stochastic tools with information and
communication theory, networking theory, combinatorics, and game theory.
SpaSWiN is the first workshop specifically devoted to the use of spatial
stochastic models for improved design of wireless networks. Building on
the success of the seven previous venues of the workshop: in Riva del
Garda (2005), Boston (2006), Limassol (2007), Berlin (2008), Seoul
(2009), Avignon (2010) and Princeton (2011), the goal of SpaSWiN 2012 is
to bring together researchers from the various disciplines involved in
spatial models of wireless communications. Please join us in Paderborn,
Germany on May 14, 2012.

Call for papers
---------------

The technical program committee is soliciting contributions that employ
spatial stochastic models - including, but not limited to, point
processes, stochastic geometry, discrete and continuum percolation, and
random graphs - to design and analyze wireless networks. All aspects and
technologies of wireless networking will be considered, including (but
not limited to): ad hoc, cellular, mesh, sensor, mobile, hybrid, and
two-tier networks; models for coverage, connectivity, capacity, delay,
energy efficiency; distributed routing and scheduling protocols and
algorithms; network information theory; power and topology control;
mobility models.

Authors are invited to submit titles and extended abstracts. Submitted
manuscripts should not exceed 6 pages in length, including figures,
appendix and bibliography. Abstracts should be formatted in two columns
with a point size greater or equal to 10pt. Submissions will be done
electronically in Adobe PDF format. Accepted abstracts will be published
in (post)-workshop materials, with the copyright left to the authors.
Authors will be offered the possibility to have their 6-page abstracts
listed in the IEEExplore as well as in the IEEE digital library, with
IEEE publication status.

Papers may be submitted through EDAS at http://edas.info/N11511
