Providing energy ubiquitously to these devices for making them functional for a long time is a challenging task. With recent advances in energy sharing technologies through both wired and wireless mediums (wireless power transfer – WPT), it is possible to extend the lifetime of such networks by utilizing energy from other energy sources (e.g., chargers, other mobile agents) within the network. Such pervasive energy sharing models become particularly important for emerging use cases on circular economy paradigms, such as smart climate-neutral cities or clean connected mobility, where valuable resources including energy need to be administered in optimal manners. Energy sharing can be considered for various types of pervasive mobile agents ranging from low-power devices such as sensors and Internet of Things (IoT) devices to moderate and high-power ones such as smartphones, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) and electric vehicles (EVs). However, depending on the networking scenario as well as the form of energy sharing, different challenges need to be addressed under different optimization goals. This special issue invites technical papers that will address these challenges in pervasive mobile energy sharing in various network domains. The special issue will span the topics including but are not limited to: - Charger scheduling and placement in wirelessly rechargeable sensor networks - Network-wide distributed energy management through energy sharing - Large-scale energy sharing protocols and scheduling algorithms - Crowd charging solutions for pervasive devices and vehicles - Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy sharing in pervasive mobile networks - Opportunistic energy sharing in Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN) - Cooperative energy management and storage in pervasive mobile networks - Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) mobile energy sharing and trading - Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) mobile energy sharing (for Electric Vehicles) - Ubiquitous dynamic wireless charging of EVs - Pervasive energy sharing and management in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) networks - UAV-assisted wirelessly powered networks and systems - Near and far-field wireless power transfer for Internet-of-Things (IoT) Networks - Energy harvesting and sharing for pervasive mobile devices - New models for distributed pervasive batteryless sensing and computation - Energy sharing solutions for green cellular networks - Hybrid mobile energy sharing networks - Privacy and security issues in pervasive mobile energy sharing - Software/hardware solutions for energy sharing among peers - Energy trading and economy models among peers - Incentive models for energy sharing and smart energy pricing - SWIPT solutions for pervasive energy sharing - Pervasive energy sharing in wearable computing - Pervasive energy sharing in smart micro-grids Submission Guidelines: ------------------------------- Manuscripts must not have been previously published nor currently under review by other journals or conferences. Papers previously published in conference proceedings are eligible for submission if the submitted manuscript is a substantial revision and extension of the conference version. In this case, authors should indicate the previous publication(s) in the cover letter and explain the enhancements made in the journal version. The published conference article(s) are also required to be submitted together with the journal version. The submission website for this journal is located at https://www.evise.com/profile/#/PMC/login. Please select “VSI:Energy-Sharing" when you reach the "Article Type" step in the submission process. To ensure that all manuscripts are correctly identified, for consideration by the special issue, the authors should indicate in the cover letter that the manuscript has been submitted for the special issue on Pervasive Mobile Energy Sharing.

City planners and traffic operators could use these simulations to explore transportation what-if scenarios, e.g., investment in a new motorway. Driver-level simulation (microscopic) has been shown to be the most accurate approach; however, it is considered too computationally expensive to be deployed in Intelligent Transportation products. Macroscopic simulations on the other hand take into account spatial density and velocity on road segments, and use various flow management methods to propagate the load of vehicles to the next segments. The simplicity of the macroscopic models makes it less expensive in term of processing power required than more complex simulation models. However, they are not as accurate as microscopic simulation models. This special session will explore new advances in these two models (as well as hybrid models) of traffic simulation. We are looking for contributions that describe novel techniques, new applications, interesting applications etc. List of Topics: Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: • Microscopic and macroscopic models; • Discrete and Continuous models; • Discrete and Continuous models; • Traffic modeling and engineering; • Mobility modeling and management; • Automatic performance analysis; • Measurement architectures and systems; • Predictive performance models; • Evaluation and Simulation tools; • Validation through modeling and prototyping.

CIoT provides a high-quality international academic and industrial exchange forum for experts and scholars in the field of intelligent systems, cloud computing and Internet of Things. CIoT’20 is a conference focusing on the challenges of deploying cloud-based and Internet of Things applications while considering the whole end-to-end architecture over the sixth generation of mobile networks (6G) and next-generation data center networking. The next generation of telecommunication networks is expected to support a growing number of smart terminals, such as cell phones and sensors, to provide real-time applications and to provide intelligence and trust embedded in network infrastructure. To meet these requirements, the 6G envisions the use of artificial intelligence, cloud, and IoT applications. The 6G network will absorb the billions of flows generated by things while considering the requested QoS and the cohabitation of M2M, M2H and H2M flows. Then, the flows will be processed in data centers and applications will exploit the extracted knowledge. Authors are invited to submit original contributions that have not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere. Papers should be prepared using the IEEE 2-column conference style and are limited to 8 pages (full papers). They have to be submitted electronically in PDF format. Papers exceeding page limits, multiple submissions, and self-plagiarized papers will be rejected without further review. All other papers will sustain a thorough single-blind review process. CIoT’20 will also hold an industrial track. The industrial track gathers scholar and industrial participants in a venue for highlighting practical and real-world studies and applications of cloud and IoT technologies. This track aims to foster cooperation between participants engaged in scientific research and practitioners working to improve the development of new cloud and IoT applications. Each submission should describe the problem addressed, the approach used, the current state of the project, an evaluation of the benefits or lessons learned, and future developments. Submissions may be short papers (4 pages). The organizing committee (OC) is closely monitoring the development of the COVID-19 situation that could impact paper submissions and in-person attendance. In the case of travel restrictions, a partially or fully virtual conference could become necessary and video/remote presentations will be accepted. In addition, the OC is also considering remote participation under all circumstances especially for accepted papers.
