SCOPE

Scope of ComSense-2014 covers the fast growing domains in smart
communications embedded in complex systems, for a wide variety of
applications in the forthcoming generation of networks and smart grid
technologies. The day by day increasing popularity and diffusion of
innovative services and applications exploited the raising challenges. These
issues demand to rebuild available technologies to meet the coming needs of
ever growing user base. ComSense-2014 targets to address the current
research results in Wireless Communications and Mobile Networking to present
their methodologies, models, technologies, systems, tools, applications,
work in progress and experiences.
