Call for Papers

The 23rd International Symposium on Modelling and Optimization in Mobile, Ad hoc, and Wireless Networks (WiOpt 2025) solicits high-quality contributions. WiOpt 2025 aims to bring together state-of-the-art research contributions from different fields in networks. It welcomes original and high-quality submissions related to modeling, performance evaluation, and optimization of networks.

The focus includes mobile networks, social networks, vehicular networks, content-driven networks, cloud and edge computing systems, Internet of Things, etc. We encourage both theoretical contributions and real-world empirical measurements and experimental studies.

Areas of Interest

The areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

• Modeling, model validation and performance analysis
• Cross-layer design and optimization / control
• Scaling laws and fundamental limits
• Network architectures and protocol design
• Resource allocation and management
• Network economics and pricing
• Game theory for networks
• Quality of service solutions
• Energy efficiency, harvesting, power control and management
• Security, trust, and privacy
• Network resilience, anomaly detection, and reliability analysis
• Data collection and analytics for networks
• Edge and Fog computing
• Mobile and Cloud computing
• Content distribution networks and wireless caching
• Reflective intelligent surface for communication networks
• Machine learning techniques for wireless communications and networking
• UAV communications in 5G and Beyond Networks
• Integrated sensing and communication
• Human-centric communication and networking for Metaverse

Awards

WiOpt 2025 will give one Best Paper Award and one Best Student Paper Award. For the Best Student Paper Award, the first author of the paper needs to be a full-time student at the time of paper submission.

Publication

The copyright of published papers belongs to IFIP, which implements a free open access policy: authors effectively hold the copyright of their papers, and IFIP automatically grants authors permissions to reuse the material as they wish. The published papers will be available in the Digital Library of IFIP at no cost neither to authors nor to readers and will be considered for publication in IEEE Xplore.
