SCOPE
----------
The main scope of the SaCoNet conference deals with the ever growing smart
communications fields embedded in complex systems, for a wide variety of
applications in the future generation of network and cloud computing
technologies. SaCoNet focuses on how smart communications affect protocols,
global design, equipment, algorithms, paradigms, power consumption, etc., for a
large family of applications (Healthcare, Underwater, Vehicular, Robotic,
Economics, etc.) using different network technologies (Sensor Networks, MANET,
VANET, Ubiquitous, Virtualization, Data centers, etc.). Indeed, autonomous
applications embedded in complex configurations and dynamic environments, have
suffered a rapid expansion from classical applications where different modular
devices, actuators and sensors interact closely. This expansion considerably
impacted on the control of a given system in a centralized manner. Current
research trends propose new autonomic architecture
schemes that manage and control future emerging networks: Sky of clouds,
Internet of things, Smart Grids, Smart Cities, etc. In parallel, the evolution
of Internet usages appeals for higher quality guarantees in order to support
stringent services. In this context, for example, Healthcare and wellness
applications such as helping elderly people, assisting dependent persons, or
habitat monitoring in a smart environment, constitute some of the potential
scenarios of convergence between autonomous systems and smart network
technologies. These applications, which are based on high-level commands,
accomplish some specific tasks, reveal new challenges regarding mechanic
design, portability, acceptability, power support and efficiency, control
theory, etc. In addition to achieve portability and low-power systems, which
are major challenges that limit substantially the efficiency of any autonomous
system based application; smart network paradigms should also
take into account issues related to cost, economic aspects, scalability and
security. Another key challenge arises at business level, since existing models
do not cover added value services. Before investing in these infrastructures,
providers must be ensured to perceive incentive compensations. This conference
will highlight the overlapping of these two domains of autonomous systems and
smart network technologies devoted for different applications and a large
variety of domains. Issues related to concepts, new technologies, test-beds,
and protocols will elicit particular attention.

SUBMISSION PROCEDURE
-----------------------------------------
The conference accepts only novel, previously unpublished papers. Prospective
authors are encouraged to submit a 5-page standard IEEE conference style paper
to this conference (including all text, figures, and references) through EDAS
submission system.
One additional page may be allowed but with additional publication fee.
Accepted papers must be presented at the Conference. The presenter must
register for the Conference before the deadline for author registration.
Failure to register before the deadline will result in automatic withdrawal of
the paper from the Conference proceedings and the program.
