Telecommunication Systems Journal (Springer)
Special issue on: Challenges in Next-Generation and Resource-Constrained
Networks
SUBMISSION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO DECEMBER 15, 2009.
Network technologies are undergoing rapid advancements. Researchers are
currently envisioning different attractive properties of wireless
systems such as the ability to self-organize, self-configure, self-heal,
self-manage and self-maintain. Different networks having the potential
to offer cost-effective home and enterprise access networking solutions
are being researched. Concepts such as dynamic spectrum access,
convergence, unified network architectures and seamless service access
in heterogeneous networks are gaining widespread popularity.
Technologies such as Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs), WiFi, WiMax,
Bluetooth, IEEE 802.20, IEEE 802.22 and software defined radio are
gaining popularity. Even though these technologies hold great promises
for our future, there are several research challenges that need to be
addressed. This Special Issue aims to publish high quality research
papers relating to the recent advances in the challenges faced by
next-generation and resource-constrained networks. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to the following:
* Next Generation Core Networks
* Next Generation Wired Access Networks
* Next Generation Wireless Access Networks
* Next Generation Cellular wireless networks
* Next Generation Network Services
* Next Generation Network Multimedia Support
* High-capacity Networks
* Resource-constrained networks
* Wireless Internet
* Software defined radio
* Ultra-wide band radio
* Emerging Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks
* Wireless Mesh Networks
* IEEE 802.11 / IEEE 802.20 / IEEE 802.22
* Emerging wireless network security issues
* Emerging issues in 3G and 4G wireless networks
* Emerging wireless network architecture
* Multimedia over emerging wireless networks
* Underwater Sensor Networks
* Underground Sensor Networks
* Cooperative wireless communications
* Multi-hop relay wireless communications
* Interoperability between high-capacity and low-capacity networks.
It should be emphasized that this Special Issue will be dedicated to
only the emerging and next-generation communication network
technologies. Authors are discouraged from submitting papers relating to
technologies that have existed for long.
