   Objectives

The objective of IJWMC is to provide a high profile, leading edge international forum for academics, industrial professionals, practitioners, educators and executives working in the field to contribute, to disseminate innovative and important new work on wireless communications and mobile computing, eventually to achieve ultimate goal of uncompromised connectivity and performance and to meet the challenge of creating fully integrated, seamless, fault-tolerant, and heterogeneous networks composed of fully distributed, energy efficient, and ubiquitous mobile computing platforms.

   Readership

Scientists, engineers, researchers, graduate students, educators, managers and industrial professionals.

   Contents

IJWMC is a refereed international journal, initially publishes 6 issues per year, and provides an international premier channel to report, discuss and exchange theoretical contributions (including new techniques, concepts, and analyses) and practical contributions (including system experiments and prototypes, and new applications), work-in-progress, experience, case studies, and trend-setting ideas in the field of wireless communications and mobile computing as well as potential future directions and issues. High caliber tutorial expositions and survey reports of permanent reference value are also welcome. Research papers should be of a quality that represents the latest technical developments of wireless communications and mobile computing in devices, hardware, software, communications, architecture, networks, systems, algorithms, service and applications that support the symbiosis of wireless communications and mobile computing.

   Specific Notes for Authors

Submitted papers should not have been previously published nor be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. (N.B. Conference papers may only be submitted if the paper was not originally copyrighted and if it has been completely re-written).

All papers are refereed through a double blind process. Authors will be required to prepare their final manuscripts using either LaTex or Word in Inderscience's A4 size (double column) journal style. For LaTex, figures must be prepared in PostScript and appropriately incorporated into the text. A guide for authors, sample copies and other relevant information (including LaTex and Word templates) for submitting papers are available on the Submission of Papers web-page.

You may send one copy of the manuscript in the form of a PostScript or PDF file, with the final, complete files in a TAR or ZIP folder containing all sources (LaTex, figures and bibliography) together, attached to an e-mail (details of file formats in Author Guidelines) to Prof. Laurence T. Yang

Please include in your submission the title of the Journal
