Following the success of MobiWac events in Forth Worth, Philadelphia,
and Maui, the 4-th Workshop on Mobility Management and Wireless Access 
(MobiWAC 2006) will be held in conjunction with MSWiM 2006 in
Torremolinos, Malaga, Spain, on October 2-6, 2006.

                              SCOPE

Wireless communications technology is enjoying its fastest growth period
in history. This unprecedented growth continues to affect the way that
we live, work and play. Yet solutions for mobile wireless access are still
in the early stages of development.
The MobiWAC workshop solicits papers from researchers and practitioners
that address architectures, technologies and protocols for mobile computing
and wireless access. Topics of particular interest include mobility and
location management, ubiquitous and ad hoc access, awareness, mobile
computational ambient agents, natural interaction and seamless access.
The workshop will include contributed technical papers, invited papers, panel
discussions and tools demonstrations.  
Accepted papers will appear in the Workshop proceedings published by ACM press.


                              TOPICS

Authors are encouraged to submit both theoretical and practical results of
significance on all aspects of wireless and mobile access technologies
with an emphasis on mobility management and wireless access.

The scope of this workshop includes, but is not limited, to:

   * Wireless/Mobile Access Protocols
   * Wireless/Mobile Web Access
   * Wireless Internet and All-IP integration
   * Next Generation Wireless systems

                             SUBMISSIONS

Papers should be written in English and should not exceed 10 pages in
double column ACM style including tables and figures.
Papers must be unpublished and must not be submitted for publication
elsewhere. A Journal Special Issue will be planned after the Workshop 
including revised extended versions of MobiWac selected papers. 

Authors are encouraged to submit papers in postscript or pdf format.
Information for paper submission can be found on the MobiWac webpage:
