Papers should present original work validated via analysis, simulation or experimentation. Practical experiences and Testbed trials also are welcome. TOPICS WiMob 2018 will host 5 parallel symposia on: · Wireless Communications · Wireless Networking, Mobility and Nomadicity · Ubiquitous Computing, Services and Applications · Green and Sustainable Communications and Network Computing · Security on Wireless and Mobile Networks A full list of topics for each symposium can be found on the conference web site. INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUBMISSION All short paper submissions should be written in English conforming to the IEEE standard conference format (8.5" x 11" - US letter, Two-Column) with a maximum paper length of 4 pages.
