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.

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.

The IoT is about to enable a range of new capabilities and services far beyond today’s offerings. It will fundamentally change how people go about their lives. According to Gartner, the number of objects connected to the Internet is set to reach 20 billion by 2020. Cisco estimates the number will be close to 26 billion objects by 2020. Others believe the actual number will be even higher with the assumption that any object with a simple micro controller and on-off switch will be connected to the Internet in the near feature. The scale of the IoT is set to have a major economic, social and environmental impacts; the intersection of which forms the future sustainable growth. The international conference on Internet of Things: Systems, Management and Security (IoTSMS) aims at soliciting original ideas on the broad area of IoT including challenges and opportunities, concepts and applications and future trends. The IoTSMS aims to facilitate discussions among academics and IoT practitioners and make positive contributions to the field.
