The International Workshop on Computer-Aided Modeling Analysis and Design of Communication Links and Networks (CAMAD), provides a forum for discussion of recent developments on analytical and simulation tools and techniques for the performance evaluation of communications systems. It was launched in 1986, being held every 2 years until 2006, often in cooperation with flagship IEEE Communication Society conferences (Int. Conference on Communications – ICC, Global Telecommunication Conference – GLOBECOM). Since 2007, the workshop has been held once every year motivated by the ever increasing interest in this hot research and development field, and since 2009 CAMAD is an attractive IEEE Communications Society portfolio event.
CAMAD will be hosting several closely related workshops and special sessions, and will bring together scientists, engineers, manufacturers and service providers to exchange and share their experiences and new ideas focusing on research and innovation results under the theme ‘Building Networks Beyond 2020 – The 5G Breeze’. In addition to contributed papers, the conference will also include keynote speeches, panel and demo sessions.
CAMAD is soliciting papers describing original work, unpublished and not currently submitted for publication elsewhere, on topics including, but not limited to, the following:
Autonomic Communication Systems and Self-Organized Networks
