Important Dates
Paper Submission Due: July 2, 2021
Author Notification: September 15, 2021
Camera-ready Due: October 20, 2021
Conference Date: December 13-15, 2021

Scope and Objectives
Mobility, sensing and networking are the key areas of enabling technologies for the next-generation networks, Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems. Recent years have witnessed the increasing convergence of algorithms, protocols, and applications for mobility, sensing and networking in a range of applications including connected vehicles, smart cities, industries, and smart health. Building on the past 16 years of success, the 17th International Conference on Mobility, Sensing and Networking (MSN 2021) provides a forum for academic researchers and industry practitioners to exchange new research ideas, present their progress, and identify future directions in the field of mobility, sensing and networking.

The conference solicits submissions from all research areas related to mobility, sensing and networking, as well as their corresponding systems and applications. Topics of interests are covered by the following tracks:

Track 1. Algorithms, Theory, and Protocols
Track 2. Systems, Tools, Experiments & Applications
Track 3. Mobile & Wireless Sensing and Networking
Track 4. Edge Computing and IoT
Track 5. Network Security, Privacy, Trust, and Blockchain
Track 6. Big Data and AI in Networking

Submission Procedures
Submitted manuscripts must be prepared according to IEEE Computer Society Proceedings Format (double column, 10pt font, letter paper) and submitted in the PDF format. The manuscript submitted for review should be no longer than 8 pages. After the manuscript is accepted, the camera-ready paper may have up to 10 pages, subject to an additional fee per extra page. Manuscripts should be submitted to one of the research tracks. Submitted manuscripts must not contain previously published material or be under consideration for publication in another conference or journal at the time of submission. The accepted papers will be included in IEEE Xplore.

***Best Paper Awards and Journal Special Issues:
Three accepted papers will be selected for best paper awards. Selected papers will be recommended to IEEE Transactions on Network Science andEngineering (TNSE, IF: 5.213), and Elsevier Computer Communicationsfor potential fast-track publications.

*** Tutorials, keynotes, and panels will be arranged.
