As network technologies evolve at a very fast pace, so do all of the techniques, algorithms and methodologies
that relate to building and deploying networks based on those technologies. Past technologies have led to a lot of
research activities being carried on in areas such as frequency allocation optimization, wave propagation
modeling or statistical modeling of network performance, in general covering the fields of predicting and
optimizing the performance of the deployed network. This session will review recent progresses in all those
areas and will provide multiple insights into challenges to come and research areas in which our knowledge
needs to progress.
