Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
After the emergence of electronic computing, almost immediately, computer communications and distributed computing appeared. Distributed computing is directly or indirectly associated with a wide area with a large number of topics. A short and incomplete list includes:
- Data: Data transfer, big data, data preservation, mobile data, etc.
- Software defined resources: Software defined networks, network function virtualization, software defined storage, software defined data center, etc.
- Computing: Clusters, grids, clouds, etc.
- Impact of distributed computing: Internet, Internet of things, etc.
I suggest you submit texts with important thoughts on the relevant topics.
All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed and selected on the basis of both their quality and their relevance to the theme of this Special Issue. This Special Issue solicits innovative ideas and solutions, in all aspects of future sustainable computing for advanced information technologies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Distributed computing in concrete areas of human activities
- Existing and future computing infrastructures (clusters, grids, clouds, SDN, SDS, NFV, etc.)
- Future of computer communications
- Neural networks
- Social/political aspects on future Internet applications
- Privacy, security and trust management
- Future of distributed computing and its impact on sustainable development
- Existing and future Internet and Internet of things (IIoT)
- Distributed and parallel algorithms
- Impact of distributed computing in financial transactions
