Special Issue on High-performance Routing and Switching in Wireless Networks

High-performance routing protocols and switching techniques play significant roles in provisioning quality of
service in wireless networks. Given the dynamic nature of wireless networking environment and spectrum
management, it is important that routing protocols be able to adapt their routing algorithms and switching fabrics
be able to reconfigure their connections. The goal of this special issue is to publish the most recent results in the
development of routing protocols and switching techniques for wireless networks and provide a forum for
researchers to discuss and express their views on state-of-the-art solutions addressing routing and switching
issues in wireless networks.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to

  • Routing in mobile ad-hoc networks
  • Routing in wireless mesh networks
  • Routing in peer-to-peer networks
  • Routing in wireless sensor networks
  • Epidemic routing
  • Multicast switching and routing
  • Cooperative routing
  • Cognitive routing
  • Packet scheduling algorithms
  • Reconfigurable switching
  • Fault tolerant switching


SUBMISSION PROCEDURE:

Papers should be submitted as PDF format electronically to msong@odu.edu with a Subject of SI/JCM. All
submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three experts following the standard review process of the Journal
of Communications to ensure the high quality of the special issue of the journal.
