Welcome to the 4th Annual
IEEE CONSUMER COMMUNICATIONS and
NETWORKING CONFERENCE
"SEAMLESS CONSUMER CONNECTIVITY"
(Co-located with the
International Consumer Electronics Show, 8-11 January 2007)
IEEE
Consumer Communications and Networking Conference, sponsored by IEEE
Communications Society, is a major annual international conference
organized with the objective of bringing together researchers, developers,
and practitioners from academia and industry working in all areas of
consumer communications and networking. CCNC 2007 will present the latest
developments and technical solutions in the areas of wireless, multimedia,
and consumer networking, enabling technologies (such as middleware), and
novel applications and services. The conference will include a
peer-reviewed program of technical sessions, special sessions, business
application sessions, tutorials, and demonstration sessions. Authors are
invited to submit complete unpublished papers, which are not under review in
any other conference or journal. Authors should submit a five-page
technical paper manuscript (or a two-page demonstration summary) in
double-column IEEE format including authors' names and affiliations, and a
short abstract through EDAS, following the submission guidelines available
on the CCNC2007 website. Only electronic submission will be accepted.
