DSoNets 2015 - 2nd IEEE WiMob 2015 Workshop on Dynamic Social Networks (DSoNets 2015)

Online Social networks (OSNs) are one of the latest revolutions that have taken the world by storm; they are so popular nowadays that people want to use them anytime and everywhere through heterogeneous devices in order to facilitate human interaction as well as creating professional relationships. Their use within vehicles has attracted many companies to develop and to integrate basic social features to navigation applications and services.
In fact, online social networking can be relevant in a cloud environment and will greatly helps users to enhance the driving experience and the traffic efficiency through the use of services and applications that are user-oriented.
Moreover, the coalition of Social Networks, Internet of Things and Cognitive Radio Networks will pave the way for an appealing kind of social applications. These applications will be greatly influenced by the social interaction of smart devices to enhance several aspects of everyday life and the behavior of potential users.
Furthermore, this coalition will build a social communication network composed of social devices that generate a huge amount of data to be stored in dynamic social cloud infrastructures.
Although, social networks have a lot of potential for Internet of Things (IoT), Cognitive Radio (CR) and vehicular scenarios, they bring up a number of technical challenges that need to be tackled.
The objective of this workshop is to bring together under one roof researchers, scientists and other like minded people with a common objective of using tomorrow's technologies for today's dynamic social networks development. We aim to provide a platform for discussion on basic challenges faced when considering the social angle in a wireless communication environment, to share latest research and thoughts on Internet of Things (IoT), Cognitive Radio (CR) and Vehicular Social Networks (VSNs), as well as, to uphold the research activities in these areas. To this end we solicit submission of papers describing significant and innovative research contributions that address technical challenges and issues appearing from the combination of Social Internet of Things and cognitive vehicular communication systems.
