For instance, traditional cellular systems have successfully provided voice services since the first analog system was introduced several decades ago. Satellite systems have also been used extensively in various military and commercial applications. Recently, with the growth of the mobile Internet, and the use of wireless technology in our daily life, wireless LANs, ad hoc networks, Bluetooth, home RF networks, and sensor networks are attracting more and more attention from both industrial and academic researchers. The mushrooming of these heterogeneous wireless technologies calls for the ubiquitous and integrated wireless infrastructures to make the communication system robust and efficient. While the existing wireless networks have been extensively studied individually, the integrated wireless system brings new challenges in system management, protocol design, performance evaluation, QoS support, etc. With this special issue we aim at bringing together state-of-the-art contributions in this emerging area of integrated heterogeneous wireless technologies that range from papers that report novel research to papers that describe commercial and industrial experiences. We are seeking for papers that are original, unpublished, and not currently under review by other conference, workshop, or journal. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following, with particular emphasis on the integration of heterogeneous wireless technologies: ·System architecture ·Interoperation between wired, terrestrial wireless and satellite networks ·Hybrid cellular systems, wireless LANs, ad hoc/sensor networks, Bluetooth ·Location, Mobility and Handoff Management ·System modeling and performance evaluation ·Security and Privacy ·Applications ·Protocol design, analysis, and optimization ·Routing (including multicasting and broadcasting)&Energy efficient, self-organizing and resilient protocols&Medium access control protocols & TCP/IP over integrated wireless networks ·Congestion, admission, and flow control ·Quality of service in the hybrid networks ·Implementation and testbed experiments PUBLICATION SCHEDULE ·MANUSCRIPT DUE: Feb. 1, 2003 ·ACCEPTANCE NOTIFICATION: May 1, 2003 ·FINAL MANUSCRIPT DUE: July 1, 2003 ·EXPECTED PUBLICATION DATE: Fourth Quarter, 2003 SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Authors should email an electronic (Postscript or PDF) copy of their papers to Dr. Hongyi Wu, wu@cacs.louisiana.edu, by Feb. 1, 2003. Submissions should be limited to 20 double space pages excluding figures, graphs and illustrations. If email submission is impossible then six (6) copies of the paper (double-sided if possible) should be sent by the due date to Dr. Hongyi Wu. All submissions will be reviewed following the standard procedure.
