Selected Areas of Wireless Communications and Networking
The technical track on Wireless Communications and Networking (WCN)
of the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing
(SAC 2024)
will be held in Avila, Spain, April 8 - 12, 2024.
Over the past few decades, wireless communications and networking (WCN) have become essential in modern society. The practical applications of communication concepts have bridged long distances and facilitated connectivity on a global scale. Such broad range of technologies include cellular networks (5G and beyond to 6G), wireless sensor networks (WSNs), ad-hoc networks, WiMAX, metaverse networking etc. The continued expansion of WCN applications has led to the development of novel technologies, shaping new paradigms in research and development. The demand for new applications brings forth complex technical challenges that necessitate innovative solutions. Moreover, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into networking solutions has introduced autonomous and intelligent decision-making capabilities, enhancing system performance. In addition to the WCN research topics, a great number of individuals, researchers, academics are emphasizing new novel ideas and improving the performance of next generation of networking paradigms including Future Internet architectures, software defined networks (SDNs), Network Virtualization. This special track aims to bring together researchers, academics, individuals working on selected areas of wireless communications and networking to share their new ideas, latest findings, and results.
Major topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
- Wireless Sensor
Networks (WSNs)
- Cellular Networks: Advances in 5G and Beyond
- Cell-free Wireless Networks
- Vehicle-to-Vehicle
Communications (V2V communications)
- Wireless Body area
Networks (WBANs)
- Machine to Machine
Communications (M2M)
- Cognitive Wireless
Networks
- Network design,
control, and performance
- Congestion control
and Traffic management
- Energy efficiency
and power control
- MAC, Routing and
Transport protocols
- Data Centric Communications and Protocols
Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished papers of research and applications for this track. Full papers are limited to 8 pages with the option for up to 2 additional pages at extra charge ($80 per page). The author name(s) and address(es) must not appear in the body of the paper, and self-reference should be in the third person. This is to facilitate double-blind review. Only the title should be shown at the first page without the author information. Papers must be formatted according to the ACM SAC template. Contributions must contain original unpublished work. Papers that have been concurrently submitted to other conferences or journals (double submissions) will be automatically rejected. For full submission guidelines, please follow the instructions on the ACM SAC 2024 website. Please submit your contributions via SAC 2024 Webpage.
Important Note: Paper
registration is required, allowing the inclusion of the paper/poster in the conference proceedings. An author
or a proxy attending SAC MUST present the paper. This is a requirement for the paper/poster to be included in
the ACM/IEEE digital library. No-show of scheduled papers and posters will result in excluding them from the
ACM/IEEE digital library.
Submission of regular papers and SRC research abstracts: October 13, 2023
Notification of paper and SRC acceptance/rejection: October 30, 2023
Camera-ready copies of accepted papers/SRC: November 30, 2023
Author registration due date: November 30, 2023
