*OVERVIEW*

Future generation wireless systems will require a paradigm shift in how
they are networked, organized, configured, optimized, and recovered
automatically based on their operating situations. With the emergence of
Software Defined Access Networks and Context-Aware Cognitive Networks
(SDRANCAN), wireless users could get seamless wireless connectivity and
services regardless of the frequency bands that they are using as a
backhaul. Context-Aware cognitive networks provides dynamic adaptive
services and applications for wireless users through automatic
configuration of devices and their parameters, systems, and services based
on the users? contexts. We believe that this workshop is important for
future wireless networks and will help to bridge the gap between
traditional wireless networks and future wireless networks through both
software defined access networks and context-aware cognitive networks.

SDRANCAN-2015 will serve as a forum for researchers from academia,
government and industries to exchange ideas, present new results and
provide future visions on these topics. Original technical papers on the
advances in Software Defined Access Networks and Context-Aware Cognitive
Networks as well as those that describe practical deployment and
implementation experiences are solicited for presentation and publication.
