Welcome to the
2008 Global Congress on Communications, Networking and Information Technology (GC-CNIT 2008). This event is intended to represent a major forum for researchers, professionals and students from all over the world to meet in the beautiful and culturally rich city of Amman in Jordan to present their latest research results and to exchange new ideas and practical experiences.
Scope
GC-CNIT 2008 main scope includes, but is not limited to the following areas: Communications and Computer Networks; Communication and Information Technology; Digital Communication Systems; Multimedia Communications;
GC-CNIT 2008 is planned to feature special sessions, keynote talks and tutorial sessions by leading experts, paper presentations, poster shows, demo shows, discussion panels, as well as other interesting technical activities.
Jordan
Coming to Jordan represents a unique opportunity to witness the embrace of history and future. As small in area as it is, Jordan has a rich history spanning thousands of years, a history that a tourist can only admire. Places like Petra and the Dead Sea are only examples of the many one-of-a-kind places to visit in Jordan. On top of all that, Jordan, as a peaceful country in a turbulent area, enjoys extreme levels of safety and security. Jordanian people are internationally known for generosity, hospitality and cultural awareness and tolerance.
Amman
Amman, the beautiful capital of Jordan, is a living model of a large and modern city that has all kinds of tourist attractions.

This tutorial looks at the most features introduced by the IEEE802.16e standard. The standard
aims to support mobility up to vehicular speeds. IEEE 802.16e builds on previous WiMax standards,
thus allowing the upgrade from Fixed Broadband Wireless Access, FBWA, systems to mobile service
provision. The mobility procedures available in WiMax are outlined, along with the parameters
required to plan HHO, MDHO and FBSS handovers. The measurement reporting and optimization of
the handover process are discussed. Relations and interactions between QoS functional elements
are discussed according to cross layer design. Scope & Objective: The objective of this tutorial is
to provide a clear and concise technical introduction to mobile WiMax/IEEE 802.16e. The
participant will have description of the major procedures of IEEE 802.16e. The tutorial is conveyed
in two mutually harmonised parts. The first part deal with fundamentals and advanced features at mainly PHY and MAC layers with particular emphasis on cross layer whereas the second part focuses on mobility management. Outline • Overview of the IEEE 802.16 Standard • Evolution of IEEE 802.16 to 802.16e • Advanced Features of Mobile WiMAX • QoS Support 15 mn) • Mobility Management with WiMAX 45 mn) o Handoff management o Mobile IP and the application to WiMAX o Power management • Security) • Mobile WiMAX System Parameters • End-to-End Network Architecture of WiMAX• Mobile WiMAX-3G Comparisons) • Q\A-------
