Call for Papers

Connected vehicles are becoming a cornerstone of the increasingly connected world and the deployment phase of the first generation of vehicular networks is now closer than ever. As the applications for connected vehicles so does the demand for reliable networking. Large-scale testbeds are running or planned in different parts of the world, while multiple discussions are taking place at different levels and in different forums about the next generation of vehicular networks. The automated (and connected) vehicle will soon come into play and may significantly change the roots of vehicular networks. The 2017 IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference (VNC) seeks to bring together researchers, professionals, and practitioners to present and discuss recent developments and challenges in vehicular networking technologies, and their applications. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): • 5G technologies for connected vehicles • Communications and networking for automated and semi-automated vehicles • Congestion and awareness control in vehicular networks • Novel technologies for V2X (TVWS, LTE-D, VLC, etc.) • Safety and non-safety applications of vehicular networks, including ITS • V2V, V2I and V2X communications and networking protocols • Vehicular communications with VRUs (Vulnerable Road Users) e.g., with bicyclists, pedestrians, etc. • In-vehicle communications (wireless or wired) • Radio propagation and technologies for vehicular networks (propagation models, antennas, etc.) • Protocols for vehicular networking (radio resource management, link layer, routing, mobility management, dissemination, transport etc.) • Security, privacy, liability, and dependability in vehicular networks • Network and QoS management for vehicular networks • Simulation and performance evaluation techniques for vehicular networks • Results from experimental systems, testbeds, and pilot studies • Impact assessments of vehicular networks on safety, transportation efficiency, and the environment • Communications related to electric and hybrid vehicles • Heterogeneous networking approaches (multi-radio, multi-channel, multi-application, multi-technology) • Integration of V2V with on-board systems and networks • Vehicular networking architectures and system design • Applications and services to enhance driver experience, performance, and behavior

Selected papers will be considered for possible fast track publication in Elsevier Computer Communications journal.

Important Dates Full/short paper submission deadline: August 14, 2017

Demo/Poster paper submission deadline: August 28, 2017

Acceptance notification: October 2, 2017

Camera ready paper due: October 16, 2017

Conference: November 27-29, 2017

Manuscript submissions We will consider two different categories of papers: Full papers (8 pages) and Short papers (4 pages), in addition to Poster and Demo papers (2 pages). Papers submitted to a category will NOT be moved to a different category, e.g. full papers will not be "downgraded" to short papers. All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings and will be submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Please note that for every accepted contribution, at least one person must register for the conference and present. EDAS Submission system: https://edas.info/ https://edas.info/
