Overview:

Wireless technology has penetrated almost all walks of life today. We get easy Internet service via wireless connection of various settings like wireless LAN (Local Area Network), cellular network, satellite and so on. The concept of the Internet has expanded to cover anything connected to the huge network of networks. While wired or guided media based connections are still considered the most stable forms of connections to this huge network, nowadays the wireless form and anything that supports that are also considered an integral part in this scenario. Even after several stages of advancements of wireless technologies, there remains unsolved issues and challenges of wireless Internet communications, ranging from technology issues to new applications and test-bed developments, especially focusing on next-generation wireless Internet, 5G, 6G, IoT (Internet of Things), Industrial IoT, Healthcare IoT, and related methodologies. There are also middleware issues, challenges to the platform providers, responsibilities for the application developers, and smart object providers.

Given this scenario, in this Special Issue (SI), we are interested in novel ideas, concrete technical works, and exchange of points of views. We expect that this would be a platform for academics, educators, and practitioners to present and discuss the latest technologies, developments, practical challenges and approaches to Wireless Internet and anything that is related to this field.

This SI would be linked with the 14th EAI International Wireless Internet Conference (EAI WiCON 2021), held on November 09, 2021 virtually (online) though the initial plan was to hold it in Orillia, Canada (due to the COVID-19 pandemic, was held online). Selected best quality papers from the event, after sufficient extensions and revisions would be invited for submission to this SI. If allowed, a few open call submissions may also be considered.
