IFIP WMNC 2022 will provide a discussion forum for researchers, practitioners, and students interested in novel developments in mobile and wireless networks, services, and applications and mobile computing.  IFIP WMNC combines PWC (Personal Wireless Communications conference), MWCN (Mobile and Wireless Communication Networks conference), and WSAN (Wireless Sensors and Actor Networks conference) into one event. It is Technically Sponsored by IFIP.

Accepted papers will be published in the IFIP Digital Library. Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version for a fast-track review in a Special Issue of Annals of Telecommunications or Journal of Network and Systems Management.

Authors are invited to submit full papers (up to 8 pages, double column) according to the guidelines available on the conference website at Authors Guidelines.
