> CFP: Special Issue on > Mobile Sensor Networks: Theory, Control, Communication, and Computation > Issues, International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks > With the advances in wireless mobile and sensor technologies, recent years > have witnessed the proliferation of application scenarios ranging from > environment monitoring to emergency search-and-rescue operations, whereby > large numbers of pervasive computing devices are connected to a wireless > networking infrastructure in an ad hoc manner. Mobile sensor networks (MSNs) > bridge several existing research areas, including multiagent systems, sensor > networks, robotics, control theory, and machine learning. This special issue > will publish results in MSNs to share the state of the art in this field and > explore the new frontiers that may be of interest to researchers. > > This special issue is focused on the theory, control, communication, and > computation issues of MSNs. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
> Coverage planning, coordinated deployment, and connectivity maintenance > Self-organization, localization, and synchronization in MSNs > Failure resilience and fault isolation strategies > Cooperative sensing and learning in MSNs > Robust sensing and control in uncertain environments > Radio access technologies and protocols and channel and traffic models > Energy efficient and intelligent internetworking protocols > Cooperative formation and flocking control in MSNs > Distributed sensor fusion and estimation > Cooperative mapping and localization > Distributed task allocation strategies > Cryptography, security, and privacy of MSNs > Resource management and energy efficient design > Performance management and optimization > Quality of service (QoS) in MSNs > Prototypes, test-beds, field trials, simulation platforms, and innovative > emerging applications of MSNs > > Before submission authors should carefully read over the journal's Author > Guidelines, which are located at > http://www.hindawi.com/journals/ijdsn/guidelines/. Prospective authors should > submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal > Manuscript Tracking System at > http://mts.hindawi.com/author/submit/journals/ijdsn/msn/ according to the > following timetable: > Manuscript Due: Friday, 1 February 2013 > First Round of Reviews: Friday, 26 April 2013 > Publication Date: Friday, 21 June 2013 > > Lead Guest Editor > V.
