The Applied Telecommunication Symposium (ATS) is an international forum 
for exchange of technical knowledge and presentation of original papers 
on the 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.
