The 17th European Wireless Conference will take place in the city of Vienna, Austria, from April 27 to April 29, 2011 and will be hosted by the Vienna University of Technology (www.tuwien.ac.at). Vienna is located in the heart of Europe, in a cosmopolitan city of great cultural diversity. Vienna University of Technology is among the most successful technical universities in Europe and is Austria’s largest scientific-technical research and educational institution.
The 2011 edition of the conference will revolve around a main theme: "Sustainable Wireless Technologies". One of the key objectives of research in wireless communication is becoming increasingly important besides the transition to distributed architectures: enabling energy efficiency and sustainability. Proceedings of EW 2011 will be published in IEEEXplore, as can be seen on www.europeanwireless.org or www.ew2010.org. Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance and originality. Proposals for special sessions and tutorials are also invited.
