Papers presented at the 2005 workshop on Wireless traffic measurements and modeling
Maria Papadopouli, Dina Papagiannaki · 2005
Welcome to the international workshop on Wireless Traffic Measurements and Modeling (WiTMeMo '05). WiTMeMo was created to address the need for more realistic models for traffic, mobility, and access patterns. Furthermore, it serves as a forum for scientists and engineers in academia and industry to discuss their experiences and research results about all aspects of measurements and modeling of applications, usage, access, and mobility in wireless networks.We are delighted to have a program with a keynote speech from Professor Margaret Martonosi of Princeton University, six peer-reviewed papers, two invited talks, and an exciting panel session. In the panel, we will address the reasons why researchers have been hesitant to experimentally validate their work based on wireless measurements and discuss the challenges in performing such measurements. Our goal is to enhance and accelerate the process of sharing traces, implementations, and test suites, while strengthening the current practices in wireless experimental research. We hope that sound experimental practices will greatly impact the future design of wireless networks, as well as their management and planning.
