Special Issue on ?Security in Wireless Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks with Advanced QoS Provisioning?
Security and Communication Networks
www.interscience.wiley.com/security

Summary
In recent years, wireless and mobile communication systems have become increasingly popular as the advance of hardware technologies makes the implementation of novel communication technologies feasible. With growing demand of software downloading and mobile multimedia services, the quality of service (QoS) provisioning and the management of network security have been critical in determining the success of future generation wireless communications. This special issue calls for cutting-edge research achievements on the provisioning of QoS and security in wireless and mobile networks.

Authors are encouraged to submit full papers presenting new research related to theory or practice of all aspects of security issues in ad hoc and sensor networks and QoS provisioning. The topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

	Security in Wireless MANETs, VANETs, Sensor, Mesh and PCS Networks
	Secure PHY, MAC and Routing Protocols
	Secure Cooperation-Based Systems and Services
	Security in Cognitive Radio Networks
	Intrusion Detection in Wireless Ad hoc and Sensor Networks
	Privacy, anonymity and authentication
	Trust Establishment
	Cooperation and Prevention of Non-cooperative Behaviours
	Incentive Aware Secure Protocol Design
	QoS for Wireless Multimedia Networks and Systems
	QoS for Wireless/Wired Hybrid Systems
	QoS support and Mobility Management in Wireless Internet
	QoS-Aware Routing for Wireless Networks
	QoS Metrics
	Wireless Network Survivability
	Wireless Systems Reliability
	Field operating tests, Performance Modelling and Simulation Techniques
	Real-time and QoS-aware Wireless Networks

Submitted papers should not be under consideration elsewhere for publication and the authors must follow the guidelines for preparation of the manuscripts. The language of the journal is English. 12-point type in one of the standard fonts, i.e., Times, Helvetica, or Courier, is preferred. The paper length should not exceed 20 pages in total, including all figures and illustrations. It is not necessary for authors to use double-line spacing in their manuscript. Tables and figures must be on separate pages after the reference list, and not be incorporated into the main text. Figures should be uploaded as separate figure files. For manuscript submission authors should follow the guidelines described in the section ??For Authors?? at http://www.interscience.wiley.com/security. Prospective authors should submit their paper online at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/scn. When submitting their papers in the SCN Journal Manuscript Central website, the authors should make sure to choose ?Manuscript type? as ?Special Issue?, and enter ?Running Head? and ?Special Issue title? as ?SCN-SI-039? and ?QoS Provisioning?, respectively.
