The Integrated Enabling Technologies (IET) is a novel design paradigm that recently gained a wide global attention from academia, industries, and governments. The fundamental concept is to emphasize the ubiquitous computing among global networked devices and physical objects, such as RFID tags, sensors, actuators, mobile phones, etc. Several enabling technologies shape the embodiment of this paradigm, including wireless/wired sensing, heterogeneous networking of constrained and mobile resources, radically novel network architectures, computing and control, building together a feasible physical system to support di-verse applications, including smart grid, e-health, intelligent transportation, etc. It is hence our aim to focus on both design and implementation aspects in networks that are reachable, or that can be utilized in to providing reachable systems through Integrated enabling technologies. At the same time, we will maintain our open call in topics relevant to IET.
With this spirit, we are soliciting works describing both theoretical and practical research endeavors. We also encourage visionary and experimental descriptions. Short reports on work-in-progress will also be accommodated.
The following is a non-exclusive list of topics of interest:
Design and deployment strategies.
Implementation and testbed issues.
IET architectures.
Protocol design, including cross-layer and opportunistic approaches.
Wireless relay, including fixed and mobile elements.
Integrated RFIDs and Sensor Networks (RSNs)
Internet of Things (IoT).
Mobility & network management.
Cognitive radios and dynamic spectrum networks.
Performance evaluation, testbeds for experiments, and simulations.
Green and ubiquitous computing.
Social networks.
