The key idea is to provide a higher level of automation by combining technologies such as Industrial IoT (IIoT), cloud computing, machine learning (ML) and advanced robotics to enable the creation of interconnected, responsive, intelligent and self-optimizing manufacturing processes and systems. The increased automation can: 1. Significantly enhance "operational efficiency" through real-time process analytics or even end-to-end process control. 2. Significantly enhance "overall productivity" by realizing zero-downtime through proactive maintenance via the implementation of ‘digital twins'. Implementation of either real-time process analytics or digital twining is geared to generate a huge volume of heterogeneous data flows. Consequently, the design of communication interfaces to support inter-connectivity must be optimized to enable convergence between legacy operations technology (OT) and next-generation IIoT. This special issue solicits original research papers focused on Design and Analysis of: 1. Ultra-reliable Low-Latency Connectivity Interfaces for IIoT Networks 2. Spectrum Management and Coexistence Issues for IIoT Networks 3. Architecture and Protocols for IIoT Networks 4. Novel ML methods for implementing Self-X capabilities in IIoT Networks 5. Resource Allocation and Management for IIoT Networks 6. Security, Privacy and Trust issues in IIoT deployments 7. Interoperability and Convergence Issues for legacy OT and IIoT Networks 8. Application and Deployment Specific Issues for IIoT Networks Submission Guidelines All submissions have to be prepared according to the Information for Authors as published in the Journal website and must be submitted via EDAS. Important Dates Manuscript Due: 1 July 2019 Acceptance Notification: 30 September 2019 Final Manuscript Due: 15 November 2019 Expected Publication of the Special Issue: First/Second Quarter 2020 Guest Editors Syed A.

The goal is to connect devices that are able to self-configure and self-adapt to contextual changes through collaboration, instead of expecting direct human input. Nevertheless, this seamless integration of the cyber capabilities of the corresponding devices with the physical world, is poised to take the threats against this technology to the next level. In this context, every threat against IoT may constitute a threat against the physical assets of systems and such threats may be even translated to loss of human lives. The focus of SPIoT is on high quality research papers about state of the art in a wide range of IoT-related technologies: - Security and privacy in heterogeneous IoT. - Secure and Privacy Preserving Data Mining and Aggregation in IoT applications. - Cross-domain trust management in smart networks. - Secure authentication of IoT devices. - MAC layer security protocols for the IoT applications. - IoT security mechanisms targeting application layer protocols. - Resource-savvy Intrusion Detection for Networks of Things. - IoT-based malware mitigation. Proceedings: All accepted papers will be published by Springer LNCS (Lecture Notes in Computer Science) in SpaCCS 2019 Workshops Proceedings (indexed by EI Compendex). ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

At the same time, the edge of the Internet is increasingly empowered with new capabilities, like pervasive sensing and computing power, which opens the way to new domains, services and business models beyond traditional mobile Internet, such as connected cars, participatory and urban sensing, industrial IoT. As a consequence, new types of information have to be delivered by the network with varying requirements in terms of reliability, transmission rates and latency. To cope with the exponential growth of devices and mobile data traffic, there is a need for clean-slate or evolutionary Internet architectures merging and assembling different network technologies, supporting new paradigms for wired/wireless system planning and optimization, efficient transport over heterogeneous wireless access options, efficient and quality-aware content distribution, and new approaches for unified operations and management of the heterogeneous components, like software-defined systems and network function virtualization. These are only some examples of the challenges that are of interest to IFIP WWIC 2019. The IFIP WWIC 2019 conference takes a broader view to the merge of wired and wireless technologies and welcomes submissions from academia and industry that explore challenges and advances in architectures, algorithms, protocols, and technologies for a global wired/wireless Internet network. Papers that present original work, validated by experimentation, simulation, or analysis, are solicited. We also encourage work-in-progress and position papers that describe highly original ideas, present new directions, or have the potential to generate insightful provocative discussions. IFIP WWIC is a single-track conference which has reached, over the last 15 years, a high-quality level, which is reflected by the paper acceptance rate as well as the level of attendance.
