Alog the conference, WD’2013 got the attention from the media appearing in TV as well as national newspapers such as El Mundo and El Levante. Here you can see the UPV-TV document ...

Our program would not have been possible without the dedicated efforts of the entire WD’13 Technical Program Committee. We are most grateful to the track co-chairs, TPC members, and the reviewers who worked so hard to complete the peer-review process on schedule. We also thank IFIP and IEEE for their technical sponsorship, which, without any doubt, improve the reputation of this conference. We are very grateful to our sponsors and supporting institutions, especially the Universitat Politècnica de València, for all the support provided.

Finally, we are sincerely grateful to all authors who submitted their manuscripts to WD’13. We hope that the whole program will be interesting and stimulating to you all.

The Conference was inaugurated by D. Francisco Mora, The Rector of the Universitat Politécnica de Valencia, and at the closing ceremony the Steering Committee announced next edition of Wireless Days Conference, taking place in Rio de Janeiro Brasil.
