To be held in conjunction with The 14th International Conference on Algorithms and Architectures for Parallel Processing (ICA3PP-2014) 2. The accepted papers of this workshop will be included into the conference proceedings published by Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science, and will be indexed by EI 3. Distinguished selected high-quality papers from the workshop, after further significant extensions, will be recommended for submission and possible publication in the Special Issue of an SCI-indexed international journal 4. The submission deadline is 20 April 2014 ***INTRODUCTION*** The wireless communication technologies have evolved quickly over the past years. As the explosive growth in broadband wireless networks, multimedia applications will dominate the future wireless communication society, resulting in non-trivial problems in terms of available capacity, reliability, quality-of-service, delay, and throughput. To successfully support wireless multimedia applications, it is necessary to improve the state-of-the-art techniques (such as radio resource management, mobility, handoff, and location management, etc.) in the multimedia transmission over wireless networks in order to provide quality-of-service guarantees between the end-users and achieve a high quality-of-experience for end-users. This workshop will address the important problems and challenges caused by the transmission of multimedia applications over wireless networks. The workshop aims to bring together computer scientists and engineers in different disciplines to share and exchange their experience and ideas and discuss state-of-the-art and in-progress research on all aspects of wireless networks and multimedia applications. The topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: *Ultra-Wideband Networks *Wireless Ad Hoc and Mesh Networks *Wireless Personal Area Networks *Wireless Local Area Networks *Wireless Sensor Networks *Wireless Metropolitan Area Networks *Cellular Networks *WiMAX *Optical Wireless Access Networks *Mobile Computing and Wireless Communications *Future Wireless Networks and Protocols *Multimedia Communications and Services *Congestion and Admission Control *Wireless MAC Protocols: Design and Analysis *Quality of Service Provisioning *Wireless Network Trust, Privacy and Security *Software Defined Radio & Software Defined Networking *Cross-Layer Design and Adaptation *Radio Resource Management *Mobility, Handoff and Location Management *Performance Modeling and Evaluation *Wireless and Mobile Network Architecture ***IMPORTANT DATES*** Submission Deadline: 20 April 2014 Authors Notification: 5 June 2014 Final Manuscript Due: 30 June 2014 Registration Due: 30 June 2014 Conference Date: 24-27 August 2014 ***PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINE*** Prospective authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting original unpublished research and recent developments in the topics related to the workshop. Papers must be clearly presented in English, must not exceed 14 pages in LNCS format, including tables, figures, references and appendixes, with Portable Document Format (.pdf). Papers should be submitted through the EasyChair paper submission system at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wnm2014. All papers will be peer reviewed and the comments will be provided to the authors. Once accepted, the paper will be included into the conference proceedings published by Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science, and will be indexed by EI. Authors (at least one) of any accepted paper are requested to register at the conference. Distinguished selected high-quality papers from the workshop, after further significant extensions, will be recommended for submission and possible publication in the Special Issue of an SCI-indexed international journal ***WORKSHOP CHAIRS*** Yulei Wu, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China Geyong Min, University of Bradford, UK Ahmed Al-Dubai, Edinburgh Napier University, UK If you have any question, please do not hesitate to contact us at intl....@gmail.com
