[DMANET] CFP: 31 Aug 14, Special Issue of Springer Complex Adaptive Systems Modeling Journal on Modeling Communication Networks

--Kindly forward to anyone interested—

http://www.casmodeling.com/about/update/COMM_NETS

Springer Complex Adaptive Systems Modeling welcomes submissions to the new
thematic series on Modeling large-scale communication networks using complex
networks and agent-based modeling techniques.
This thematic series intends to publish high quality original research as
well as review articles on case studies, models and methods for the modeling
and simulation of large-scale computer communication networks using either
of the following two approaches:
•  Complex networks (such as modeled using tools such as Gephi, Network
Workbench and others)
•  Agent-based models (such as based on NetLogo, Repast, Mason, Swarm and
others)
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
• Multiagent systems
• Cognitive Sensor Networks
• Wireless Sensor Networks
• Sensor Actuator Networks
• Cloud computing infra-structures
• Internet of Things
• Service-oriented architectures
• Pervasive/Mobile Computing
• Peer-to-peer networks
Submission instructions:
Before submitting your manuscript, please ensure you have carefully read
the Instructions for Authors for Complex Adaptive Systems Modeling. The
complete manuscript should be submitted through the Complex Adaptive Systems
Modeling submission system. To ensure that you submit to the correct
thematic series please select the appropriate section in the drop-down menu
upon submission. In addition, indicate within your cover letter that you
wish your manuscript to be considered as part of the thematic series
on Modeling large-scale communication networks using complex networks and
agent-based modeling techniques.. All submissions will undergo rigorous peer
review and accepted articles will be published within the journal as a
collection.
Deadline for submissions: 31 August 2014
Lead guest editor: Muaz A. Niazi, COMSATS Institute of IT
Submissions will also benefit from the usual benefits of open access
publication:
• Rapid publication: Online submission, electronic peer review and
production make the process of publishing your article simple and efficient
• High visibility and international readership in your field: Open access
publication ensures high visibility and maximum exposure for your work -
anyone with online access can read your article
• No space constraints: Publishing online means unlimited space for figures,
extensive data and video footage
• Authors retain copyright, licensing the article under a Creative Commons
license: articles can be freely redistributed and reused as long as the
article is correctly attributed



Kind regards,
Muaz
