= BACKGROUND =
It is widely argued that the increased requirements on ubiquitous
computing and network access led us to the era of smart devices and
wireless communications. The number of mobile phones, PDAs, NFC, RFID,
smart card tokens, and other computing and portable devices requiring
wireless network access has superseded that of wired ones.
Wireless communications and smart devices provide many benefits such as
mobility, portability and flexibility, increased productivity, and lower
installation and maintenance costs. At the same time futurists are
speculating about a world of ubiquitous computing and ambient
intelligent, in which countless invisible sensors and actuators will
communicate with each other, imminently taking care of our needs and wishes.
Depending on their specific underlying operational characteristics and
deployment environment, these devices have specific platform,
application, and communication requirements, and they may be routinely
used by millions of users and for a variety of applications. These
applications include a myriad of deployment scenarios including WLAN
accessibility in order to check email and obtain access to the internet
or other networks, buildings and public transport networks, or even
engaging into financial transactions with banks or other individuals. As
the technologies of next generation wireless networks and smart devices
are emerging, security has become a primary concern, in order to ensure
dependable, secure communications and services to the end user.
This special issue on security of next generation smart devices will
present current research focusing on security-related protocols and
applications, secure architecture and frameworks, along with new
theories and methodologies for secure next generation wireless networks
and respective smart devices. We will welcome contributions from the
academic, industrial, research, and development communities that can
demonstrate particular advances into the aforementioned proposals and
technologies.
