CALL FOR PAPERS
International Journal of Communication Systems (IJCS), Wiley InterScience
Special Issue on Recent Issues in Wireless Sensor Networks (SCI-E)

 

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have become a highly active research area because of their potential of providing diverse services to a broad range of applications. The explosive growth of applications for the current and emerging user services creates a number of issues in WSNs. Emerging technologies and application services have posed various hallenges to both academic and industry people, especially for the development of efficiency, scalability and reliability in wireless sensor networks. These challenges motivate us to design and develop new protocols, architectures and services for future WSNs. 
The goal of this special issue is to publish both state-of-the-art and prospective papers that present advances towards the performance enhancement of wireless sensor networking. In this context, papers will discuss all aspects that have an impact on the performance as depicted in research activities from professionals, academics and researchers. This Special Issue will serve as a venue for both academia and industry individuals working in this fast-growing research area to share their experiences and state-of-the-art work with the readers. Topics appropriate for this special issue include, but are not limited to:

 

- Applications of sensor networks
- Self-organized Wireless Sensor Networks
- Power consumption and optimization for WSN
- New trends on data gathering, processing, and communication for WSN
- New trends on malicious behavior detection and analysis for WSN
- New WSN applications and sensor network services
- Emerging technologies in WSNs
- QoS and QoE issues in WSN-based integrated networks
- Robustness and fault tolerance in WSNs
- Algorithms and techniques for energy efficient communication in WSNs
- Location discovery and location management for WSNs
- Data fusion and dynamic inference of network information
- Routing and data transport in wireless sensor networks 
- Medium access protocols for WSNs
- Modeling and performance evaluation
- Measurements and experience from experimental systems and test-beds
- Integration of wireless sensor networks and web-based services
- Interconnecting WSN and mobile network
