Call For Papers http://csr.bu.edu/aswn2004 4th Workshop on  Applications and Services in Wireless Networks Boston, Massachusetts, USA August 9-11, 2004 ASWN 2004 is the fourth workshop on Applications and Services in Wireless Networks. The previous events were held in France and Switzerland, and in 2004 the workshop will take place in the United States the first time. ASWN 2004, which will be held in Boston, aims at investigating new developments in wireless networks focusing on applications and services. The workshop will provide three-day presentations of invited and regular papers from academia and industry. Authors are invited to submit full technical papers on both theoretical and practical aspects of leveraging wireless and mobile environments. Tutorial proposals are also requested.  All papers, including invited papers, will go through a thorough review process. Topics  Specific areas of interest in Applications and Services on Wireless Networks include, but are not limited to, the following topics:  Media Distribution over Wireless Networks  New Data Services for Wireless Networks  Audio-visual Applications for Home and Business Mobile Multimedia Middleware for Mobile Applications and Services Service Execution Environments Service Creation Mobile Service Interworking  Service Discovery  Location-based Services Context Awareness and Personalization  Service Development, Validation, Testing & Deployment  Inter Domain and Inter System Mobility  QoS Profiling and Pricing, end-to-end QoS  Security and AAA Aspects  Nomadic Services, Interface Management  Mobile ad-hoc Networks, Multihop Wireless Networks, Sensor Networks  Wireless Personal Area Networks  Reconfigurable Systems and Networks Self Organizing Systems Enabling 3G and Beyond Technologies and Architectures  Performance of  Wireless Networks and Systems  Cooperative Networks  Papers Prospective authors are invited to submit for review, papers that neither have been previously published nor are under review by another conference or journal. Priority will be given to original contributions describing recent and innovative research results or developments in the scope of the workshop.  Papers must be written in English, using font no smaller than 10 points and not exceed 10 pages.
