Message from the general chairs

It is our pleasure to welcome you to COMSNETS 2012, the Fourth International Conference on COMmunication Systems and NETworkS, and to Bangalore, India´s technology city. COMSNETS is a premier international conference dedicated to covering all aspects of networking and communications, in both the theoretical and systems aspects. Following the tradition established by the first three COMSNETS conferences, COMSNETS 2012 includes a highly selective technical program, comprising peer-reviewed submitted papers, plenary talks by leaders in the field, and a small set of invited papers on important and timely topics from well-known researchers. The conference also features three workshops on emerging topics, a Ph.D. Forum, demos and exhibits sessions, posters, and three panel discussion sessions. COMSNETS also hosts Mobile India 2012, exploring developments and business models for applications, services, and content that can be provided to mobile platforms and over wireless networks. COMSNETS 2012 is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Communications Society, and is presented in-cooperation with ACM SIGCOMM and ACM SIGMOBILE.
