Dear Lars C Wolf

Greetings from IEEE MASS 2020! Hope everyone is doing well and safe in this pandemic time.

Thank you for submitting a paper to IEEE MASS 2020.

Please note that the IEEE MASS 2020 is postponed to December 10-13, 2020 due to COVID-19 to increase the chance of organizing the conference in person. Please also note the new dates. Kindly encourage more participation from your known sources.

Looking forward to your continued support for IEEE MASS 2020. Best wishes to you and your family from IEEE MASS 2020 team.

Best Regards, Sateesh K. Peddoju and Jiannong Cao Program Co-Chairs of IEEE MASS 2020

===== NEW CFP ======

The 17th IEEE International Conference on Mobile Ad-Hoc and Smart Systems (MASS 2020) https://www.iitr.ac.in/mass2020/

Delhi NCR, India. December 10-13, 2020 (Postponed from October 1-4, 2020 due to COVID-19)

IMPORTANT NOTE: The IEEE MASS 2020 conference is now moved to December 10-13, 2020 due to COVID-19. The main objective of moving is to increase the chance of having an onsite conference. The organizers are exploring contingency plans, such as running it virtually, depending on the situation in the next few months. However, the conference will be held one way or another, and the organizers are committed to present a high-quality technical program in terms of top-notch keynote speakers, competitively accepted peer-reviewed papers (proceedings published by the IEEE), an exciting panel, and other associated events like cutting-edge workshops, poster and demo sessions. If the conference will be held in person, sufficient measures will be taken to ensure the safety and health of our research community.

CONFERENCE SCOPE & TRACKS

IEEE MASS 2020 is a premier annual forum for sharing original, novel ideas in mobile ad-hoc networks and smart systems, defined broadly. As wireless ad-hoc networks continue to evolve and specialize into a number of application scenarios and environments, and sensor-based systems and technologies increasingly permeate our everyday life and become the inner fabric of the Internet of Things and Cyber Physical Systems, the unfolding of smart environments such as smart cities, smart farming, smart healthcare, and smart manufacturing, to name a few, demand integrated solutions that can make intelligent use of both cloud and edge systems, while applying machine learning and artificial intelligence tools to handle their growing complexity and to leverage the vast amount of available data. Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society, the 17th edition of the IEEE International Conference on Mobile Ad-Hoc and Smart Systems (MASS) will be held in Delhi NCR, India during December 10-13, 2020, and it aims at bringing together researchers, developers, and practitioners to address recent advances in mobile ad-hoc and smart systems, covering algorithms, theory, protocols, systems & applications, experimental evaluations and testbeds, security/privacy, as well as AI/ML-based smart design.

All submissions will be peer-reviewed on the basis of relevance, originality, importance and clarity.

SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: ===================== Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that are not currently under review elsewhere. All submissions should be written in English with a maximum length of 9 single-spaced, double-column pages using 10pt fonts on 8.5 x 11 inch paper, including all figures, tables, and references, in PDF format. Authors must use the Manuscript Templates for IEEE Conference Proceedings. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published by IEEE and will be presented at the conference. Based on TPC reviews and discussions, some papers may be accepted as 5-page short papers, or 2-page posters in addition to the regular 9 page papers. For all papers, IEEE reserves the right to exclude the paper from distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the conference. Note that the conference will also include a poster and demo session.
