Special Section on Technologies and Architectures for Improving Scalability, Reliability, and Robustness for Future Information Networks

摘要

The IEICE Transactions on Communications announces that it will publish a special section entitled "Special Section on Technologies and Architectures for Improving Scalability, Reliability, and Robustness for Future Information Networks" in December 2014.In order to construct future information networks, many researches have been performed on various kinds of network technologies and architectures such as information/content centric networking (ICN/CCN), software-defined networking (SDN), data centers and cloud computing, delay/disruption/disaster tolerant networks (DTN), and so on. These network technologies and architectures are considered to possess the features of scalability, reliability, and robustness so that they can provide high quality communication services while adapting to changing circumstances and disturbances. In order to further promote the research on scalability, reliability, and robustness of future information network technologies and architectures by timely dissemination of currently available research results, this special section has been scheduled to appear in the December 2014 issue.
