The IMPReSS project is a 30-months EU-Brazil cooperative research project started in 2013.
The project is partly funded by the European Commission under the 7th Framework Programme in the area of EU-Brazil Research and Development cooperation under Grant Agreement no. 614100

The paper was written by Alex F Monteiro (UFAM), Eduardo Souto (UFAM), Richard Pazzi (UFAM), and Jussi Kiljander (VTT). The following is an abstract of the paper:
IEEE 802.11 wireless networks have become one of the main responsible for the growing of mobile devices and their applications usage. This growth of devices, that use ISM band to traffic, created a competition for portions of available frequencies to use, resulting at the decreasing of traffic quality and increasing the amount of noise generated. This article describes an uncoordinated solution for IEEE 802.11 networks channels assignments, based on adjacent channels overlap calculations combined with their signal strength. The tests showed that the solution had low convergence and flow gains at the allocation of the channels in scenarios that used spectrum at 2.4 GHz densely occupied.
The Brazilian Symposium on Computer Networks and Distributed Systems (SBRC) is an annual event promoted by Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) and the National Laboratory of Computer Networks (LARC). For more than three decades, SBRC has become the most important national scientific event on computer networks and distributed systems, and one of the most crowded in the computer science field.
The 34th edition of this Symposium will be held from May, 30th until June 3rd in Salvador, Bahia. The event coordination is under the conjunct responsibility of the Department of Computer Science of Federal University of Bahia (UFBA) and the Federal Institute of Bahia (IFBA). The event will be composed of technical sessions, short courses, panel discussions, workshops, demo session, tutorials, and lectures presented by internationally renowned researchers.
