ANIS LAOUITI received his PhD in computer science from the Versailles University, France, in 2002. He had been doing his research during and after his Phd at INRIA/Hipercomteam, before he joined the TELECOM Sud-Paris, France, as an associate professor in 2006. His research interests include unicast/multicast routing protocols for MANET, and vehicle to vehicle communications. He was involved in the IETF-MANET working group and he is one of the co-authors of the OLSR routing protocol. He was involved in several national research projects such as E- compagnon project which aims to integrate ad hoc routing capacities (OLSR protocol) in new commercial multimedia products, and SMARTMESH which deals with the design of intelligent wireless sensor mesh networking for video surveillance and intrusion alarm system. Anis Laouiti was also involved in two international research projects to set up a real wireless ad hoc network testbed in collaboration with the AIT in Thailand, Dumbo 1& 2.>AMIRQAYYUM obtained his PhD in Mobile Wireless Networks from University of Paris-Sud, France in 2000. He was associated with INRIA France for the research on Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANETs), from 1996 to 2000 and have co-authored Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) protocol RFC (RFC-3626). He obtained his engineering degree from University of Engineering and Technology, Lahore, Pakistan. He is currently the Head of Centre of Research in Networks and Telecom (CoReNeT) at M. A. Jinnah University, Islamabad, Pakistan. His current activities at CoReNeT include projects on mobility management in heterogeneous wireless networks, Quality of Service (QoS), Multicast video streaming in hybrid IPv4 and IPv6 networks, Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) for active safety applications, and IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) design and development. He has lead many funded research projects on Mobility Management, IP Multimedia Subsystem, IPv6 and VANETs, in collaboration with several national and international partners.NAUFAL M. SAAD obtained his Master degree in Ecole Nationale Supérieure d'Ingénieurs de Limoges (ENSIL) in France and later his PhD degree in Telecommunication in Université de Limoges (UNILIM), France in 2005. He is currently associate professor in the Electrical & Electronic Engineering department of Universiti Teknologi Petronas (UTP), Malaysia and also core research member in the Centre for Intelligent Signal and Imaging Research (CISIR) of UTP. His research interests cover medical imaging, intelligent signal and communication. He has authored and co-authored more than 100 international publications.
