Ramakrishnan, University of California, Riverside, USA [Call For Papers] IEEE LANMAN has an established tradition as a forum for presenting and discussing the latest technical advances in local and metropolitan area networking. Cutting-edge papers spanning both theory and experimentation are solicited in all areas of networking. Continuing the tradition of identifying a central theme that is of current interest in our field, IEEE LANMAN 2017's theme will be Connecting Smart Cities through Software-Defined Infrastructure. This topic broadly encompasses research on how softwaredefined technologies are revolutionizing networking, particularly for emerging applications like Smart Cities and the Internet of Things. Network Function Virtualization and Software Defined Networking are transforming the network data and control planes, promising greater flexibility and lower cost. As industry and academia explore new application paradigms running on smart devices, there is an ever growing need for new network architectures, protocols, and management technologies. The intimate single-track session format of the symposium encourages stimulating exchanges between researchers. The symposium is expected to be a forum for discussion of new and interdisciplinary ideas on architectures, algorithms, service models, pricing, and performance. Speculative and potentially transformative ideas are particularly encouraged, as are studies reporting measurements from real-life networks and testbeds. Papers are solicited on topics including, but not limited to: - Novel data center network architectures, technologies, and protocols - Mobile Edge Computing and architecture innovation - Software defined networking and network function virtualization - Integration of cloud server, storage, and network resources - Name-to-name communications and name-based abstractions - Energy-efficiency, reliability, resource allocation, and pricing in data centers - Wireless access technologies (WiFi, LTE, etc) and their integration in 5G networks - Performance measurement and modeling - Internet-of-Things and Machine-to-machine communications - Smart cities, connected transportation systems, and intelligent buildings - Local-area and metropolitan-area network security - LAN-based and MAN-based applications (gaming, distributed computing, media distribution to and in the home, enterprise applications, ambient technology, wearable-computing) Ilario Filippini Assistant Professor Politecnico di Milano, DEIB Via Ponzio 34/5, 20133, Milan, IT ph: +39 02 2399 3657 web: http://home.deib.polimi.it/filippini/ ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

According to United Nation it is estimated that by 2050, 66% of the world population will live in cities. This is an indicative of a drive to live in more privileged and smarter environment. Therefore, there exists an increased demand for intelligent and sustainable environment that offers citizens of urban areas a high quality life. Smart City may be a solution. > > Millions of dedicated and reliable sensors are required in Smart Cities to enhance the quality of urban living. Communications infrastructure is inevitably required for connecting these sensors. In order to better manage urban resources, there exists a need to explore the issues like deployment of sensors, communication technologies, information management and defining and deploying proper Smart City applications. > > In this Special Section, we focus on the most recent advances in the interdisciplinary research areas encompassing the smart cities domain. This special section will bring together researchers from diverse fields and specializations, such as communication engineering, computer science, electrical and electronics engineering, bio-medical engineering, education, mathematics Through this Special Section, we invite researchers from academia, industry, and governmental organizations to discuss challenging ideas and novel research contributions, demonstrate results, and share standardization efforts on the smart cities and related areas. > > Topics of interest include, but not limited to the following: > > • Resource and network management in smart cities > • Communication Architecture > • Communication requirements and Protocol design issues in Smart cities > • Modeling Network Performance in Smart Cities > • Protocols for intelligent traffic handling > • Technologies for communication in smart cities > • Quality of Service (QoS)/Quality of Experience (QoE) mechanisms for wireless networks in smart cities > • Integration and co-existence of technologies and networks for smart cities > • Interoperability between heterogeneous networks of smart cities > • Energy-aware wireless protocols and algorithms for smart cities > • Experimental network measurements and characterization for smart city data traffic > • Cooperative and smart sensing techniques > • Sensor deployment, placement, control and management issues > • Experimental results, prototypes and test-beds for smart cities > • Security issues and solutions for privacy in smart cities > • Sensing technologies > • Sensor Data Collection and Management > • Applications for Smart Cities > > > Paper Submission: > Contact Associate Editor and submit manuscript to: > http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/ieee-access > > For information regarding IEEE Access including its publication policy and fees, please visit the website http://www.ieee.org/ieee-access > > > > Guest Editors of the Special Issue > > Muhammad Khalil Afzal, Lead Guest Editor > COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Pakistan > > Mubashir Husain Rehmani > COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Pakistan. > > Antonio Pescape > University of Napoli, Italy. > > Sung Won Kim > Yeungnam University, South Korea. > > Waleed Ejaz > Ryerson University, Toronto, ON, Canada > > ______________________________________________________________ > IEEE Communications Society Tech.
