TELECOMMUNICATIONS: ENABLING AN OMNIPRESENT WORLD

In the past few years, there has been a growing interest in a pervasive, connected world, where distances shrink and (virtual) presence is everywhere. Next generation wireless networks, heterogeneous access technologies, ad hoc and sensor networks, and new Internet technologies will be part of this new world. The need for new, increasingly robust, self organising, and context aware networking protocols and techniques will challenge our designs. Security, as well greening enhancements are becoming indisputable components of today?s everpresent technologies, in a world that relies totally on them. ICT'11 will reflect on such trends.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Wireless Communications&   Networks

* Ad Hoc & Sensor Communications&   Networks (incl. MANETS and VANETS)
