PERSONAL WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS
IFIP - The International Federation for Information Processing
IFIP was founded in 1960 under the auspices of UNESCO, following the First World
Computer Congress held in Paris the previous year. An umbrella organization for
societies working in information processing, IFIP's aim is two-fold: to support
information processing within its member countries and to encourage technology transfer
to developing nations. As its mission statement clearly states,
IFIP's mission is to be the leading, truly international, apolitical
organization which encourages and assists in the development,
exploitation and application of information technology for the benefit
of all people.
IFIP is a non-profitmaking organization, run almost solely by 2500 volunteers. It operates
through a number of technical committees, which organize events and publications.
IFIP's events range from an international congress to local seminars, but the most
important are:
• The IFIP World Computer Congress, held every second year;
• Open conferences;
• Working conferences.
The flagship event is the IFIP World Computer Congress, at which both invited and
contributed papers are presented. Contributed papers are rigorously refereed and the
rejection rate is high.
As with the Congress, participation in the open conferences is open to all and papers may
be invited or submitted. Again, submitted papers are stringently refereed.
The working conferences are structured differently. They are usually run by a working
group and attendance is small and by invitation only. Their purpose is to create an
atmosphere conducive to innovation and development. Refereeing is less rigorous and
papers are subjected to extensive group discussion.
Publications arising from IFIP events vary. The papers presented at the IFIP World
Computer Congress and at open conferences are published as conference proceedings,
while the results of the working conferences are often published as collections of selected
and edited papers.
Any national society whose primary activity is in information may apply to become a full
member of IFIP, although full membership is restricted to one society per country. Full
members are entitled to vote at the annual General Assembly, National societies
preferring a less committed involvement may apply for associate or corresponding
membership. Associate members enjoy the same benefits as full members, but without
voting rights. Corresponding members are not represented in IFIP bodies. Affiliated
membership is open to non-national societies, and individual and honorary membership
schemes are also offered.

Preface
The international conference Personal Wireless Communications (PWC 2007)
was the twelfth conference of its series aimed at stimulating technical exchange
between researchers, practitioners and students interested in mobile computing
and wireless networks. On behalf of the International Advisory Committee, it is
our great pleasure to welcome you to the proceedings of the 2007 event.
Wireless communication faces dramatic changes. The wireless networks are
expanding rapidly in subscribers, capability, coverage, and applications, and
costs continue to decrease. Mobile devices are becoming ubiquitous with greatly
expanded computing power and memory, improved displays, and wireless lo-
cal and personal area connectivity. The PWC 2007 program covered a variety
of research topics that are of current interest, starting with Ad~Hoc Networks,
WiMAX, Heterogeneous Networks, Wireless Networking, QoS and Security, Sen-
sor Networks, Multicast and Signal processing. This year we enriched PWC with
a poster session covering diversity topics related to wireless networks (e.g., fil-
ters, current conveyors, etc.).
We would like to thank the International Advisory Committee members and
the referees. Without their support, the program organization of this conference
would not have been possible. We are also indebted to many individuals and
organizations that made this conference possible (Czech Technical University,
IFIP, ESTEC). In particular, we thank the members of the Organizing Commit-
tee for their help in all aspects of the organization of this conference.
We hope that the attendees enjoyed the conference in Prague, and found it
a useful forum for the exchange of ideas and results and recent findings. We
also hope that the attendees found time to enjoy Prague and to visit its major
cultural monuments.
