=============================================================

Networked embedded systems have been increasingly used to design novel IoT/CPS solutions and to develop a plethora of applications with a high societal relevance, such as smart homes, smart cities, smart healthcare, and smart production. Especially in safety-critical domains, these applications require dependable communication performance and need to meet tight reliability and availability requirements. To this end, after years spent designing low-power wireless networking solutions for best-effort applications, there is an increasing need for reliable and efficient protocols, standards, and algorithms to enable the real-world deployments of applications with strict dependability requirements.

== Topics ==

This special issue targets scientific contributions tackling these issues. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Communication protocols for IoT and cyber-physical systems; * Routing protocols and scheduling algorithms; * Dependability (real-time, reliability, availability, safety); * Fault-tolerant systems; * Low-power wireless and networked embedded systems; * Reliability despite harsh environmental conditions; * Edge Computing; * Experiences from real-world deployments; * Benchmarking and testbeds; * Wireless coexistence in dense deployments; * Radio interference identification and mitigation; * Communication standards and technologies for IoT and cyber-physical systems; * Industrial IoT systems and networks; * QoS in the IoT, CPS, and Industry 4.0 contexts; * Wired and wireless convergence; * Technical assessment of emerging IoT standards; * Discovery, coordination, and use of IoT services; * Opportunistic scheduling and software-defined networking; * Network coding, virtualization, and slicing; * Multi-technology hardware and software solutions; * Operations, administration and management (OAM), and monitoring; * Data processing and edge computing; * Real-time big data analytics; * Energy sustainability, efficiency and harvesting. ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
