The 5th International Conference on Smart Communications in Network Technologies - SaCoNeT 2014 will be held in Vilanova i la Geltrú, Catalonia, Spain, on June 18-20, 2014.
SaCoNeT 2014 provides a forum for the promotion of new opportunities from industry, institutes of technology and academia. We therefore invite you to contribute to the event through involvement as co-sponsor, workshop organiser, presenter, delegate or contributor.
The scope of SaCoNet is to deal with the growing smart communications fields embedded in complex systems for a wide variety of applications in the future generation of network and cloud computing technologies. SaCoNet focuses on how smart communications and ICT networks impact not only on network technologies (protocols, equipment, algorithms, power, MANET, VANET, etc.), but also on creating collective and individual awareness about the multiple sustainability threats which our society is facing nowadays at social, environmental and political levels, considering a wide family of applications (healthcare, underwater, vehicular, robotic, economics, etc).
The goal of the conference is to present high-quality results in the field, and to provide a framework for research collaboration through focused discussions that will designate future research efforts and directions. In this context, the program committee will accept only a limited number of papers that meet the criteria of originality, presentation quality and topic relevance.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Cloud Computing & Internet of things • Rural applications • Vehicular applications of autonomous behavior • Autonomous manipulation using service robots • Architecture and protocol for wireless based sensor networks • Secure, scalable and low cost network applications • Energy optimization of autonomous systems • Underwater applications • Virtual networks and distributed Agent Platform • Pervasive communication in autonomous application fields • Rehabilitation robotics, exoskeletons, smart textile clothes and wearable robots applications • Context-awareness and ubiquitous applications • Techniques of sensing, actuation and recognition • Design modeling and control of autonomous robotic systems • Assistive robotic technology • Economic aspects • Context awareness using sensor networks • Open Data initiatives • Real-time network based structure using sensors, actuators and transducers • Network based transmission architecture for controlling autonomous systems • Monitoring and security of autonomous systems in intelligent environment • Social networks and collective awareness • Digital social platforms • Social networks • Data analysis
PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION ------------------------------------------------------------------------ All submissions must describe original research, not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal. Papers must be submitted electronically through EDAS. You can find detailed submission instructions at http://www.craax.upc.edu/saconet2014
******************* Submission implies the willingness of at least one author to attend the conference and present the paper. *******************
