Scope

The fourth generation (4G) of wireless communications is expected to
integrate a potentially large number of different heterogeneous wireless
technologies in what could be considered a huge step forward towards
universal wireless access and omnipresent computing through seamless
mobility. Even though 4G standard is currently not defined, there are =
many
current outlooks that delineate the vision of the new wireless =
technologies.
Based on the emergent trends of mobile communication, 4G will have =
larger
bandwidth, higher data rates, smoother and quicker handoff and will =
focus on
guaranteeing faultless service and seamless handoff across a multitude =
of
wireless networks. The key concept is integrating the 4G capabilities =
with
all of the existing mobile technologies. Special maneuvers will be =
necessary
amongst different access systems in terms of horizontal (intra-system) =
and
vertical (inter-system) handoff as well as seamless mobility, Quality of
Service (QoS), dependability and security.

In this workshop, we solicit high quality papers from leading =
researchers
that present state-of-the-art research in heterogeneous wireless =
networks
dealing with resource management techniques and QoS provisioning.
