Special Issue of Wireless Personal Communications - Cooperative
Decision Making in Heterogeneous Hybrid Systems

***DESCRIPTION***********************************************************************

The evolution in the field of wireless and mobile technologies, and
networks has provided the framework on which a variety of devices,
agents and sensors can communicate and collaborate. As a consequence,
decision making in this environment of ubiquitous operation and ad hoc
communication, requires the use of multiple dynamically changing
parameters in order to be able to provide context awareness. A typical
example is the use of environmental factors. As a result, at
academic/research, even corporate level, we have witnessed several
deployments of systems that observe, measure, record, decide following
common principles.
Starting from the above, the purpose of this special issue is to
propose novel ways to integrate different, heterogeneous systems that
bring sparse information, combine this information with general rules
to take decisions and enforce these decisions using automated systems.

***TOPICS OF 
INTEREST*************************************************************

The topics of interest include but are not limited to:
* Dynamic discovery and integration of heterogeneous devices and systems
* Integration of wireless and wired networks in a single, integrated
network system
* Wireless cooperative networks architectures
* Middleware design for supporting integration and cooperation of
heterogeneous systems
* Algorithms for aggregation and organization of mobile and sensor data
* Use of semantic technologies for data characterization and
collaborative decision making
* Cooperative systems between software agents and devices
* Enforcement of decisions in the autonomous system (e.g. robotics)
* Integrated security and privacy protection mechanisms for
cooperative decision making
