The Applied Telecommunication Symposium (ATS) is an international forum
to exchange of technical knowledge and present original papers on
analysis of telecommunication systems and technologies. It is intended
for professionals, engineers, software developers, managers, and others
interested in cellular and packet traffic characteristics, analysis of
telecommunication networks, and practitioners operating
telecommunication networks. We are looking for innovative technical
papers describing projects, applications, and research and development
work pertinent to telecommunication. The following tracks (with track
chairs listed) will be held; the topics are representative of the track,
