Abstract:
With the rapid growth in popularity of wireless data services,
and the increasing demand for multimedia applications, it is
expected that wireless networks will provide services for
heterogeneous classes of traffic with different Quality of
Service (QoS) requirements. Wireless communication poses special
problems that do not exist in wireline networks, such as
time-varying channel capacity and location-dependent errors.
Although many algorithms for QoS support are available for
wireline networks, they are not directly applicable in wireless
networks because of these special problems. This tutorial
provides a comprehensive and in-depth survey on recent research
in QoS support in wireless networks, focusing on wireless
scheduling. Various representative algorithms are examined.
Their themes of thoughts, and pros and cons are compared and
analyzed. Some open questions and future research directions are
addressed.

8:30am – 9:00am
Opening Session
9:00am
– 10:00am Keynote Speech: Emergency use of
communication
facilities,
by
Fred Baker, Cisco
Abstract:
The Internet and various mobile telephone services
are
being expanded for use in times of crisis. Applications
include
dissemination of warning information
in times of crisis,
databases
designed to assist families and companies to locate
and
verify the status of victims, and facilities for the management
of
crisis by government or government-sanctioned leadership. Mr.
Baker will discuss the services being developed, how they
might
be used in times of crisis, and how research can make them
better.
