--------------------------------------------- INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS (Indexed by SCIE - 2013 Impact Factor: 1.106) *Special Issue on “Energy-efficient Networking”* Editor-in-Chief: Mohammad S. Obaidat ISSN: 1074-5351 http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/5996/home --------------------------------------------- Fueled by the increasing popularity of the Internet and evermore bandwidth-hungry services, networking technologies constitute one of the most fast growing areas in the field of the IT industry. This fast growth has led to a point where the energy expenditure of networking infrastructure constitutes a significant portion of the total energy expenditure and moreover, the trend is towards an additional increase. Thus, the development of energy efficient networking technologies for the various segments (backbone and access parts) of today's Internet has recently emerged as a significant research area. The primary focus of such green technologies, is towards reduction of the energy footprint of the networking infrastructure, thus enabling sustainable development, low operational costs and environmental safety. The objective of this special issue is to report state-of-the art results in energy-efficient networking protocols by welcoming contributions originating from both academic and industrial research. These should be original contributions solicited in relevant areas of energy-efficient networking protocols. Topics (Areas of interest for this special issue include the following topics): -Algorithms for energy-efficient design and operation of optical backbone networks -Energy-efficient protocols for optical access networks -Energy-efficient protocols in wireless networking -Energy-efficient MAC protocols -Energy-Efficient Protocols for mobile networks, -Energy-Efficient Protocols for sensor networks -Energy-efficient protocols in machine to machine networks -Energy-efficient protocols in RFID networks -Energy-efficient routing protocols -Energy-efficient transport protocols -Adaptive energy-efficient protocols -Performance evaluation studies of energy-efficient solutions -Tools and models for energy-efficient network design -Application and implementation issues Schedule --------- Manuscript due date: December 30, 2014 Decision notification: February 20, 2015 Submission of final manuscript: March 1, 2015 Tentative Publication date: Fourth Quarter, 2015 Submission & Review Instruction ------------------------------- Submitted articles must not have been previously published or currently submitted for journal publication elsewhere.
