CALL FOR PAPERS
Special Issue in Elsevier Future Generation Computer Systems Journal.
"Internet of Things (IoT): Operating System, Applications and Protocols
Design, and Validation Techniques"
Submission Deadline: June 30, 2017
THE THEME
------------------
Internet of Things (IoT) connects durable goods, cars and trucks, industrial
and utility components, and sensors to Internet with data analytics
capabilities. IoT is flourishing due to technology advancements. The key
features of IoT Operating Systems (OSs) are modularity, energy-efficient
scheduler, hardware support, architecture, network stacks, reliability,
interoperability, unified APIs, generic interfaces, and real-time
capabilities. The applications for IoT service scenarios are diverse and
challenging. These range from smart energy, transportation, etc. to big data
analysis. The integration of all these applications is essential to eventually
make everything smart. The memory and energy efficient IoT protocols are
desirable. The validation of IoT protocols and applications is a key to
success. Therefore, an IoT OS requires to support not only a huge variety of
heterogeneous hardware, but also simulators and emulators as well as testbed
facilities Further, it should provide th e capability to perform small scale
to large scale testing with heterogeneous physical devices and communication
technologies. The availability of variety of IoT OSs, low-cost IoT devices,
heterogeneous telecommunications technologies, big data technologies and
standardization is a key of success for IoT deployment. To fully exploit these
technological advancements, there exists many issues related to applications,
protocols, testing, interoperability; time bounded big data processing and
analysis, heterogeneous communication technologies and platform support. This
Special Issue focuses on the most recent advancement in interdisciplinary
research areas encompassing IoT OSs, applications and protocols design,
development, and validation domain. This Special Issue will bring together
researchers from diverse fields such as communication engineering, computer
engineering, computer science, electrical and electronics engineering,
bio-informatics and mathematics. Through this Special Issue, we invite
researchers from industry, academia and government organizations to discuss
innovative ideas and contributions, demonstrate results and share
standardization efforts on the IoT OSs and related areas. Topics of interest
include, but not limited to the following:
· IoT Operating Systems (OSs)
o Energy and memory efficient approaches
o Sensors, IoT platform support and limitations in IoT OSs
o Interoperability of IoT OSs protocols and devices
o Simulation, emulation and testbed support, limitations and Solutions
o Resource management for IoT OSs

Submission Guidelines:
---------------------------------
All submissions have to be prepared according to the Guide for Authors as
published in the Journal website at http://ees.elsevier.com/fgcs/. Authors
should select “IoT:OS,App,Proto,Valid”, from the “Choose Article Type”
pull-down menu during the submission process at EVISE. All contributions must
not have been previously published or be under consideration for publication
elsewhere. A submission based on one or more papers that appeared elsewhere
has to comprise major value-added extensions over what appeared previously (at
least 30% new material). Authors are requested to attach to the submitted
paper their relevant, previously published articles and a summary document
explaining the enhancements made in the journal version.
