-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE Internet of Things Journal Special issue on “Information-Centric Wireless Sensor Networking (ICWSN) for IoT” Datum: Sat, 19 Sep 2020 04:32:56 -0400 Von: Muhammad Khalil Afzal muhammad.khalil.afzal@GMAIL.COM Antwort an: Muhammad Khalil Afzal muhammad.khalil.afzal@GMAIL.COM An: tccc-announce@COMSOC.ORG

Information-Centric Networking (ICN), is a paradigm shift from a location-aware, address-based communication architecture to a location-independent, name-based, and connectionless communication architecture. ICN may appear as a promising candidate to solve many issues of the current Push/IP/Client-Server-based, connection-oriented regid network architecture. Adopting the ICN architecture for resource-constrained wireless sensor-based IoT networks may further improve the data access mechanisms, reliability issues in case of mobility events, and high latency in case of multihop communication. However, integrating both technologies has not extensively been studied, especially for resource-constraint wireless sensor networks. The scope of this Special Issue is the examination of the challenges presented by the synergy between ICNs and wireless sensor-based IoT networks. Therefore, we invite researchers and experts to contribute original research articles as well as review articles about the research topics related to ICWSN. It is intended that this Special Issue of the IEEE IoT Journal will show the state-of-the-art in ICWSNs. Original research contributions, tutorials and review papers are sought in ICWSN-related areas including (but not limited to):

• Architecture and protocol designs for ICWSN • Cross-layer protocol designs for ICWSN • Naming schemes for ICWSN • Caching schemes for ICWSN • Protocol Designs for cluster-based ICWSN • Architecture and protocol designs of ICWSNs with various radios, such as LoRa, Wi-Fi, BLE, NB-IoT, etc. • Distributed Computing over ICWSN • Resources Orchestration over ICWSN • Producer mobility in ICWSN • Reliability, QoS support, sustainability, and energy efficiency in ICWSN • Security and privacy in ICWSN • Multimedia support in ICWSN • Forwarding and Routing for ICWSN • Test-Bed implementation and measurements ICWSN
