2017 International Workshop on Heterogeneous Wireless Networks and
Quality-of-Experience (HWNQoE-2017)
http://empslocal.ex.ac.uk/people/phd/wm255/HWNQoE2017/index.html
Exeter, England, UK, 21-23 June 2017
To be held in conjunction with the 13th IEEE International Conference on
Green Computing and Communications (GreenCom-2017)
*** The paper submission deadline is extended to 23 March 2017 ***
INTRODUCTION
=================
With the rapid innovation in sophisticated wireless communication
technologies including 4G LTE-Advanced, fixed and mobile broadband WiMAX, 3G
UMTS/CDMA and high-speed Wi-Fi, the past years have witnessed a dramatic growth
of mobile multimedia applications, for example, Live Mobile Video, 3D Video
Stream, Digital and Mobile TV, VoIP, etc. These content-rich multimedia
applications consume a huge amount of network resources and create new
challenging issues for heterogeneous wireless networks to satisfy the
ever-increasing Quality-of-Experience (QoE) requirements. Furthermore, the
traditional criteria for the measurements and provisioning of network
performances are generally based on Quality of Service (QoS), which is defined
in terms of network delivery capacity and resource availability such as
bandwidth, jitter, throughput, transmission delay and availability. While it is
widely accepted that QoS is inadequate for successfully and comprehensively
evaluating the user-perceived
quality of multimedia services over heterogeneous networks, as QoE is
determined not only by QoS but also by the quality of multimedia content to be
delivered.
The purpose of this workshop is to bring together industry and academic
researchers to provide an up-to-date picture of the state-of-the-art research
in the field of heterogeneous wireless communications and QoE provisioning. It
is also intended to provide a forum to exchange varying beliefs and
understandings of how to seamless integrate advanced wireless networking and
adaptive multimedia processing for enabling evolution of the current wireless
system toward future networks.
