call for tutorials

Tutorial proposals were due by 31 March 2012.

PIMRC'12 Tutorials Chairs are Mahbub Hassan and Matti Latva-aho.

Please note that final decisions on accepting tutorial proposals (as well as their length) will reflect space limitations at the conference venue and program requirements. Tutorial speakers will be compensated in accordance with the IEEE Communications Society policies, which may require tutorials to have a minimum number of registrants.

Workshop 3: First International Workshop on Smart Grid Wireless Communications (SGW 2012)
Workshop 4: WDN Workshop on Cooperative and Heterogeneous Cellular Networks (WDN-CN2012)
Workshop 5: Full-Day Workshop on W-GREEN

call for panels

Panel proposals were due by 1 May 2012, feedback will be provided to panel proposers by 15 May 2012, and full panel information is due on 1 June 2012.

Panel organisers will be responsible for getting all panel presenters, and providing the full information for the conference programme in due time. The number of members of a panel should not be more than 4, plus the moderator, so that there is enough time for discussion. Panel members are not exempt from registering at the conference.

The selection of the panels to be included in the final PIMRC program will be based upon several factors, including the fitting into the conference program, the scientific / technical interest and novelty of the topics, the quality of the proposal, balance and distinctness of topics, and the capacity of the conference program.

PIMRC´12 Panel Chairs are Luis M. Correia (luis.correia@lx.it.pt) and Jorge Pereira (Jorge.Pereira@ec.europa.eu).
