We are pleased to invite you to submit your paper to Special Issue on "Reliable and secure VANETs" in IEEE Transactions on Dependable and Secure Computing. Vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) has gained a significant attention during the last decades both from industrial and academia communities. Novel VANET-enabled active safety automotive applications are heavily dependent on reliability and security of underlying inter-vehicle communication protocols. The error-prone nature of the wireless channel and its openness to external invasions as well as dynamic VANET environment, impose the need for intensive studies before applications like platooning or collision avoidance can become a part of our daily life. The aim of this special issue is to encompass research advances in all areas of reliability and security in VANETs. We welcome contributions relating to novel protocols for reliable and secure vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication as well as methods for their performance evaluation. This special issue intends to provide a venue for interested researchers and practitioners to share their novel research results.

Topics of interest (include but are not limited to)

• Quality of service in VANETs and cross-layer optimization

• Safety-critical inter-vehicle communications

• Availability, performability, and survivability

• IEEE 802.11p/1609 protocols

• Performance evaluation methods and tools

• Field monitoring and measurement

• Misbehavior detection and mitigation in VANETs

• Intrusion tolerance and attack models in VANETs

• Privacy-enhancing technologies for vehicular communication systems

• Cryptographic protocols and algorithms, and their security

• System architecture and design for reliable and secure VANETs

• Mobile cloud computing enabled reliability and security for VANETs

• Information-centric networking (ICN) reliability and security support for VANETs

Important Dates

• Manuscript submission deadline: June 30th, 2014

• First notification date: August 15th, 2014

• Expected publication date: Nov/Dec 2014

Papers must be written in English and describe original research not published or currently under review by other journals or conferences. All relevant papers submitted will go through an external, rigorous review process. Submissions should be sent according to the instructions available at: http://www.computer.org/portal/web/tdsc/author
