Special Issue Call for Papers
Aims and Scopes
With the rapid advent of various expanding research on wireless mobile networks, such as MANETs，VANETs, CCNs, WSNs, and IoT etc., more and more smart mobile devices (e.g. smart phones, smart-watches, smart-glasses, personal wearable communication devices and wearable healthcare devices, etc.) have been designed to adapt to the development of wireless mobile networks, which indicates that we are entering an era of smart society. By leveraging the wireless mobile networks, smart mobile devices can communicate with each other and exchange information to perform the optimal control or display necessary information anytime and anywhere. Although there have been large numbers of research efforts relevant to this area, it is still necessary to address many challenges of wireless mobile networks by utilizing ongoing works. On one hand, the efficient resource utilization in terms of energy consumption, radio resource allocation, routing selection etc., is still a big challenge in wireless mobile networks. On the other hand, the deployment of exiting wireless mobile networks lacks appropriate monitoring, response mechanisms and cognitive ability etc. Therefore, building “advanced” wireless mobile networks with the features of intelligent and cooperative communication, cross-layer optimization, and security-guarantee etc. has become an utmost important and urgent task to be solved.
The aim of this special issue is to motivate researchers to publish their latest research, up-to-date issues, and challenges in the field of wireless mobile networks. Proposed submissions should be original and unpublished.

Theme
Ubiquitous computing, also known as ambient or pervasive computing, is the intensity of work, residential, and commute settings with interconnected gadgets. Because of ambient information gathering and application, smooth, simple gateways, and flexible money transfers, such integrated techniques could enhance such environments and transit options significantly more pleasant and efficient. The fundamental goal of ubiquitous computing is to create linked intelligent things that make connectivity and data sharing smoother and much less intrusive. Moreover, autonomous systems increasingly replace people in many activities and will soon be pervasive and part of everyday life. Additionally, ubiquitous computing has increased its position in various industries, such as self-driving cars, Internet of Things applications, health informatics, industrial robotics and autonomous application, advanced agricultural framework, and application related to industrial 4.0. Many technology supplier's specialists are working tirelessly to build next-generation augmentative communication systems that will suit consumers' ever-increasing demands. Hence, considerable advancements in augmentative communication are required for personalized and pervasive applications.
The convergence of augmentative communication with human-computer Interaction enables persons with hearing impairments to express their communicative purpose and interact. It provides an alternate and convenient approach for consumers to share through modern communication equipment facilitated by Human-computer interaction. HCI using augmentative communication is accomplished using digitally outputs derived from the user's facial expressions, gestures, sign language, texts, emails, and pictures. Besides, the primary disadvantages of current augmentative communication devices are their inability to deal with persons who possess non-verbal communication abilities. Hence augmentative communication enabled human-computer interaction framework presents an ideal solution to the issues raised above by providing more inventive methods to express human ideas and emotions. Even though recent achievements in augmentative communication enabled human-computer Interaction, both areas are still in the early stages of research and need more improvement. The use of human-computer Interaction assisted particular plans and design methodologies for augmentative communication would result in significant advancements in supporting persons with speech difficulties while also increasing the relevance of AC in ubiquitous applications. Further, it has as the convergence of augmentative communication with human-computer Interaction would aid in ubiquitous applications like self-driving cars, Internet of Things applications, health informatics, industrial robotics and autonomous application, advanced agricultural framework, and application related to industrial 4.0. Hence, this special issue focuses on Human-Computer Interaction enabled Augmentative Communication for Ubiquitous Applications. The list of topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:

Aims
Communication systems have come a long way since humans discovered first how to communicate. From smartphones to holographic projections, a lot has changed with the advent of technology. Now it is possible to communicate underwater as well. Underwater acoustic communication is the process of sending and receiving messages in an underwater environment. Hydrophones are the most commonly used device. The complexity of such communication systems exists due to the limited bandwidth, heavy signal attenuation, low data rates, time variations, and multi-path propagation. In order to address these critical issues, innovative signal processing systems are being used. Iterative equalization and decoding and spatial multiplexing methods of signal processing have been proven to enhance the robustness and performance of such underwater acoustic networks. Research in signal processing for underwater communication is majorly focused on the standardization of channel models and feedback-based underwater acoustic systems. The former issue can be addressed using techniques like statistical models and nominal propagation models. However, due to the heterogeneity of underwater surfaces and complex environments, categorised and tailored models might have to be created. Future research can focus on a unified model that includes a repository of observed channel responses. The latter issue relating to feedback is helpful in developing smart underwater acoustic systems for the next generation. These can be achieved using a number of innovative tools like directive transmission, adaptive power control, adaptive positioning, and adaptive modulation. The advantages of such feedback systems include active time reversal, excitation in single mode etc. Future research in this area can focus on security and privacy, spatial division multiplexing, and point-to-point links. Peer-to-peer networks are being integrated with cellular-based centralized networking to develop bandwidth-efficient underwater acoustic networks. It has been demonstrated that information-based, software-define, and mobility-aware architecture is the key to addressing challenges like large communication delays and degrading network efficiency. The future of sustainable underwater acoustic networks relies heavily on the combination of communication, sensing, and navigation solutions, reliable network communications among Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs), and sustainable implementation. The cost, implementation, and availability of such underwater communication systems can also be significantly increased with the help of lighter and more sustainable hardware and software tools.

Aims
With the rapid development of cloud techniques, cloud services have been widely adopted in various industries or learning environments. With cloud computing, modern businesses’ flexibility, efficiency, scalability, security, increased collaboration and reduced costs can be guaranteed. However, it also has some drawbacks, such as data loss or theft, data leakage, account or service hijacking, insecure interfaces/ APIs, and denial of service attacks, etc. In other words, the security and privacy are critical issues for cloud services. If the probability of the above-mentioned risks is not effectively reduced or controlled, in the process of enterprises adopting cloud services, before enterprises can fully enjoy the benefits brought by cloud services, the trust from customers and the stability of services that enterprises rely on will be challenged.
The purpose of this Special Issue is to enhance and exchange knowledge of security and privacy awareness of either cloud computing or cloud services in both the industry and research communities. Authors are encouraged to submit both theoretical and applied articles addressing new approaches, research results, case studies, and best practices.
