IoT is generally characterized by real world and small Things, limited capacity, constrained devices and the consequential issues such as less reliability, security and privacy. Cloud computing on the other hand deals mainly with virtual world and has unlimited capabilities in terms of storage and processing power. Thus cloud and IoT are the main complementary aspects of the future Internet. IoT can benefit from the unlimited capabilities and resources of cloud computing. Similarly, cloud can benefit from IoT by extending its scope to deal with real world things in a more distributed and dynamic manner. The scope of this special issue is to present state-of-the-art research covering a variety of concepts in the area of IoT and cloud computing. Papers for the Special Issue must provide a substantial novel contribution, and authors must carefully situate their work with regard to the relevant scientific literature. They must clearly address research issues of Internet of Things and Cloud and show the role of modelling and simulation in studying IoT and cloud systems performance. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Network Design and Architecture Software Architecture and Middleware Mobile Services Data and Knowledge Management Context-awareness and Location-awareness Security, Privacy and Trust Performance Evaluation and Modelling Networking and Communication Protocols Machine to Machine Communication Smart Environment Intelligent Systems for Cloud and Services Computing Energey Efficiency SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: Manuscripts should be submitted online through the Elsevier Editorial System (EES) at the following link: http://ees.elsevier.com/simpat. Authors must select Special Issue: IoT - Cloud when they reach the “Article Type” step in the on-line submission process. Submitted manuscripts should present original contributions and must not have been previously published nor be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. All papers will be peer reviewed according to the high standards of the Simulation Modelling Practice and Theory Elsevier journal. Please feel free to contact the Guest Editor for any questions. Important Dates Manuscript submission deadline: November 15, 2015 Manuscript revision due: February 29, 2016 Final notification of acceptance: March 31, 2016 Expected publication of the special issue: June 2016 SPECIAL ISSUE EDITORS: Prof. Eleni KARATZA Department of Informatics Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Thessaloniki, Greece Email: karatza@csd.auth.gr Prof. Irfan AWAN School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science University of Bradford Brdford, UK Email: i.u.awan@bradford.ac.uk |
