FFCN 2012 - FFCN 2012 : The International Symposium on Frontier of Future Communication Networks

The International Symposium on Frontier of Future Communication Networks (FFCN-2012) to be held in conjunction with
The 14th IEEE International Confernece on High Performance Computing and communications (HPCC-2012)
http://www.lrm.sdu.edu.cn/ffcn2012.html
Introduction

The demand of next generation networks for communications has focused on the trend in technology and the efficiency.
Driven by the fancy technologies and the applications, the provisioning of large-scaled and complicated
communication networks is becoming an important research issue. Especially over the last few years, there has been
an explosion of wireless subscribers and booming growth in the Internet both in terms of users and usage. The trend
has led to a new direction, and meanwhile brought many grand challenges to both industrial and academic
communication communities. To overcome these challenges, it is necessary to seek new levels of research work on
architecture, green networking, performance, and intelligence of future communication networks.
The purpose the 2012 International Symposium on Frontier of Future Communication Networks is to bring together
scientists, researchers, professionals, and practitioners from both industry and academia to share the opinions,
seek the solutions, and report state-of-art research results.
Scope and Topics:

-Ad Hoc Networks and Sensor Networks
-Social Networks: Architecture, Theories and Technologies
-Perspective of Cognitive Networks and Development
-Applications and Technologies of Mobile Networks
-Systems, Architecture and Standardizations of Internet of Things
-Performance, Modelling, Analysis and Optimization of Computer Networking
-Design and Development of IPv6
-Challenges and Issues of Bio-Networks
-Applications, Theories and Utilizations of Biomimicry Networks
