Synopsis "Journal of Communication, Navigation, Sensing and Services (Conasense)"
Aim The overall aim of the Journal of Communication, Navigation, Sensing and Services (CONASENSE) is to provide a common platform for exchanging ideas among the communities, both the academic and industrial, involved in the fields of Communications, Navigation and Sensing, with emphasis on multidisciplinary views and Smart/Intelligent services that require the effective and efficient integration of these three fields of research and development. Scope The Journal will publish articles on novel research and the latest advances, in the field of communication (in particular, wireless communication), navigation and sensing with special emphasis on the challenges, new concepts and future enablers for the interaction/integration of these technologies for the successful provision of smart/intelligent services. The fields of interest include: All communications/sensing/navigation systems and techniques, protocols which enable awareness of the physical environment, effective and fast feedback loops between actuation and sensing, a flexible and cognitive architecture which comply with essential requirements like safety, security, near-zero power consumption as well as size, usability and adaptability constraints. Control theory aspects in presence of wireless or lossy feedback links (i.e. network control theory), distributed control systems; Services and applications such as smart grid, Ambient Assisted Living, Ambient-Intelligence, Smart Cities, Smart Environment, Context-aware services, location-based services, e-Health, but more in general innovative services and applications for contributing to solving societal challenges. Data management such as data mining, data retrieval, decision-making algorithms.
