Special Issue on: "Sensor Networks and Cloud Computing"

Sensor networks and cloud computing (SNCC) have received tremendous attention from both academia and industry, as they are emerging to present numerous exciting applications in the Internet of Things and machine-to-machine and cyber-physical systems (e.g. industrial process control, video surveillance, structural health monitoring, mobile commerce, mobile learning, mobile gaming), which can fundamentally change the way people interact with the physical world.
Recently, integrating sensor networks with cloud computing is widely acknowledged as further enhancing the performance of sensor networks or cloud computing applications by utilising the powerful cloud to store, process and share the data gathered by a variety of sensors.
However, new research challenges need to be addressed in order to accelerate the development of these SNCC-integrated applications. For instance, mobile network bandwidth is still quite limited, with dramatically increasing mobile and cloud users. Intelligent resource management is required to provide users with services in an on-demand and scalable fashion. A secure mobile computing model is necessary to protect user privacy and data secrecy.
In this special issue, we solicit research papers addressing all aspects of SNCC. The goal of the issue is to bring together state-of-the-art research contributions, tutorials and position papers that address various aspects of analysis, design, optimisation, implementation and applications of SNCC.
The issue will carry revised and substantially extended versions of selected papers presented at the 3rd International Symposium on Big Data and Cloud Computing Challenges (ISBCC 2016), but we also strongly encourage researchers unable to participate in the conference to submit articles for this call.
