 Call for Papers: Peer-to-Peer Networking and Applications seeks original 
manuscripts for a Special Issue on Security and Privacy of P2P Networks in 
Emerging Smart City.
 
Recently, the smart city has been introduced as a promising concept due to its 
potential benefits including low-carbon economy, intelligent traffic 
management, ubiquitous information sharing, and etc. In the smart city, there 
are many key components, such as smart grid, smart vehicle, smart cloud, and 
mobile social network. Thanks to the good salability and low processing cost on 
content delivery and distributed search engine in these components, P2P 
technologies are expected to play an essential role in accelerating the 
implementation of the smart city.
Although we have witnessed the major and remarkable development in the field of 
smart city in the recent years, the security and privacy issues of the smart 
city have not been well studied. Thus, there is a crucial need for security and 
privacy research to achieve secure and privacy-preserving smart city. The 
purpose of this special issue is to report on the most up-to-date contributions 
in smart city from P2P perspective. Researchers and practitioners are invited 
to submit theoretical or applied papers dealing with the following topics (but 
not limited to):
l  Security and Privacy Issues in P2P based Smart Grid
   Authentication, authorization, and access control for smart appliances
   Security and privacy in smart meters, energy auction markets, and 
distributed power generations
   Implementation and testbed for security evaluation in the smart grid
l  Security and Privacy Issues in P2P based Smart Vehicle
   Security policies, standards, and regulations in vehicle ad-hoc networks 
(VANETs)
   Authentication, authorization, accounting, secure routing, and privacy 
protection in VANETs
   Implementation and testbed for security evaluation in VANETs
l  Security and Privacy Issues in P2P based Smart Cloud
   Keyword searching and matching in cloud computing 
   Authentication, authorization, accounting, access control and privacy   
protection in cloud computing
   Attack modeling, prevention, mitigation, and defense in cloud computing
   Implementation and testbed for security evaluation in cloud computing
l  Security and Privacy Issues in P2P based Mobile Social Network
   Authentication, authorization, access control and privacy protection in 
mobile social network
   Secure information sharing, searching and matching in mobile social network
   Implementation and testbed for security evaluation in mobile social network
