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.
