To address the individual requirements of both safety and non-safety applications in the Connected and Smart Vehicles field, there is a need to build up a new communication technology for the integrated solutions of vehicular communication and smart communications. The Connected Vehicles infrastructure can be of various models such as Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V), Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I), and Vehicle-to-Everything (V2E). Due to the rapid growth in the Connected Vehicles, many research constraints need to be addressed, e.g., reliability and latency, appropriate scalable design of MAC and routing protocols, performance and adaptability to the changes in environment (node density and oscillation in network topology), and evaluation and validation of Connected Vehicles’ protocols under the umbrella of coherent assumptions using simulation methodologies. In addition, the information shared among Connected Vehicles is of great importance and it is not yet clear what kind of privacy policies will be defined for the ITS networks. This Feature Topic (FT) aims to emphasize the latest achievements to identify those aspects of Connected Vehicles and ITS networks that are identical to a traditional communications network in the broader spectrum. Feature Topic Focus: In this FT, we would like to try to answer some (or all) of the following questions: What will be the effect on Policy Making regulations when the connected vehicles will hit the roads? What are the privacy consequences of Connected Vehicles with Smart onboard peripherals? What kind of privacy policies will be defined for the connected vehicles and smart ITS networks? What kind of education and training are required for drivers and passengers of such connected and smart vehicles to take full benefits of the proposed communication architectures? What kind of groundbreaking applications can make Connected Smart Vehicles more attractive? What will be the acceptability aspects of Smart Vehicles with networked hardware? In addition, the authors are expected to address state-of-the-art research challenges, results, architecture, applications, and other achievements in the following topics, but not limited to: - Intra-vehicle communication (vehicle-to-pedestrians, vehicle-to-portable, vehicle-to-sign, etc.) - Network and system architecture for Connected Vehicles - MAC protocols and channel management - Physical layer and routing protocols - Delay tolerant vehicular networks - Real-time optimization system - Modeling and theory - Internet-of-Vehicles, smart sensors (infrastructure and vehicle based) - Mobility management (Traffic models) - Energy efficient vehicular communication - Quality-of-Service for vehicular communication - Future Internet in ITS and Networking Systems - Information and Content-Centric Networking in Connected Vehicles Networks - Vehicular Cyber-Physical Systems and Smart Devices IMPORTANT DATES: Manuscript Submissions Due: February 1, 2018 Decision Notification: June 1, 2018 Final Manuscript Submission: July 15, 2018 Publication Date: October 2018 EDITORS: Syed Hassan Ahmed University of Central Florida, USA sh.ahmed(a)ieee.org Jalel Ben-Othman University of Paris 13, France jalebeno(a)yahoo.fr Jaime Lloret Polytechnic University of Valencia, Spain jlloret(a)dcom.upv.es Wael Guibene Intel Corporation, Santa Clara, CA, USA wael.guibene(a)intel.com Ashfaq A.

Different types of relationships exist among things, thus forming social connections such as parental-object relationship, co-work-object relationship, co-location-object relationship, ownership-object relationship, and so on. The definition of Internet of Vehicles (IoV) applies to an interconnected set of vehicles providing information for common services such as traffic management and road safety. The Social IoV (SIoV) is an extension to the concept of IoV, where the social networking concepts of SioT are applied to IoV. In SIoV, smart vehicles build social relationships with other social objects they might come into contact, including other vehicles and Road Side Units, with the intent of creating an overlay social network to be exploited for information search and dissemination for vehicular applications. In SIoV scenario, several challenges are worth to be investigated. SIoV paradigm is still in its infancy but there is a concrete interest by the research community, automotive industry and social application providers to develop SIoV applications. The special issue on Recent Advances on Social Internet of Vehicles accepts papers dealing with the following topics of interest (but not limited to): * Data dissemination mechanisms in SIoV * Social-based network protocols for SIoV * Privacy, trust, and security issues in SIoV * Autonomic service discovery in SIoV * Data management, big data processing and analytics in SIoV * Integration of SIoV and cloud/edge/fog/on-board computing environment * SIoV in 5G and vehicular network environments * Test-bed and simulation tools for SIoV * New Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and services based on SIoV Important dates: Manuscript Submission: March 1, 2018 1st Reviews Due: May 15, 2018 Revision Due: June 15, 2018 2nd Reviews Due/Notification: July 15, 2018 Final Manuscript Due: August 15, 2018 Publication Date: 2018 Submission: All original manuscripts must be submitted electronically through IEEE Manuscript Central, https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/iot All manuscripts will be peer reviewed and must follow the standard guidelines for manuscript preparation and submission available at http://iotjournal.weebly.com/guidelines-for-authors.html Select the “Recent Advances on Social Internet of Vehicles” special issue, when uploading your manuscript.
