description
of workshop objectives and structure
Workshop on Performance Evaluation of Wireless
Networks (PEWiN-2012), as an international workshop, is devoted to deeper understanding in
the performance evaluation and simulation techniques of wireless networks
including mobile ad hoc networks, wireless sensor networks, vehicular ad hoc
networks, underwater sensor networks, and all kinds of wireless networks.
Wireless networks raise a number of interesting
and undiscovered performance evaluation and simulation issues, while traditional
techniques are not sufficient to analyze, evaluate, and simulate proposed
wireless algorithms or systems in the right way. For example, the algorithms and
systems in vehicular ad hoc networks require a high degree of communication
reliability, short communication delay, scalability, security, and
privacy-preserving technologies under harsh condition. Researchers not only need
to design practical distributed and centralized algorithms, but also need to
introduce novel theoretical models or evaluation methodologies to challenge
various kinds of research problems originated from these wireless networks.
The workshop is intended to encourage idea
sharing and cooperation among researchers in wireless networks, and push the
theoretical and practical research forward for a deeper understanding in the
theoretical modeling, evaluation and analysis techniques, and simulation methods
in wireless networks. Authors are invited to submit papers presenting new
research related to the theory or practice of wireless network simulations,
modeling, and analysis. All submissions must describe original research, not
published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or
journal.
