SCOPE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Third ACM International Workshop on Wireless Multimedia Networking and
Performance Modeling (WMuNeP'07) will be a one-day workshop, held in
conjunction with the 10th Annual ACM Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and
Simulation of Wireless and Mobile Systems (MSWiM´07). The demand for wireless
multimedia communications thrives in today's consumer and corporate market. The
need to evolve multimedia applications and services, and their associated
protocols for emerging networks is at a critical point given the proliferation
and integration of wireless systems to intelligent and broadband networks,
mobility of people, data/voice convergence and the integration of computing and
communication in mobile devices.

This workshop is devoted to cover different aspects of wireless multimedia
networking and performance modeling for WLANs, WPANs, WMANs, WWANs, MANETs and
sensor networks such as wireless video and wireless streaming, systematic
design methodologies, algorithms, synchronization, analysis and performance
modeling. The workshop will provide a forum for researchers and practitioners
to present their contributions related to the above high-level aspects.
