==================================================================
As continuity of the first and the second edition of SaCoNeT workshop, the scope of SaCoNeT-III is to deal with the growing overlap between both autonomous systems and the future generation of network technologies embedded in Internet and cloud computing for a wide variety of applications (underwater, vehicular, medical, robotic, etc.). SaCoNet focused on how smart communications has affect some aspects (protocols, design, equipment, algorithms, paradigm, power, etc.) for a large family of applications (Healthcare, Medical, Underwater, Vehicular, Robotic, etc.) using network technologies (Sensor Networks, MaNet, VANET, etc.). Indeed, autonomous applications embedded in complex configurations and dynamic environments have rapidly expanded from classical applications where different modular devices, actuators and sensors interact closely. This has impacted considerably the control of a given system in a centralized manner. Current trends are to propose new autonomic architecture schemes that manage and control future emerging networks: sky of clouds, Internet of things, etc. Healthcare and wellness applications such as helping elderly people, assisting dependent persons, habitat monitoring in a smart environment constitute some of the potential scenarios of convergence between autonomous systems and smart network technologies. These applications, (which are based on high-level commands) accomplish some specific tasks, reveal new challenges regarding mechanic design, portability, acceptability, power support and efficiency, control theory, etc. In addition to portability and low-power systems, which are vital challenges that limit substantially the efficiency of any autonomous system based application; network paradigms should also take into account issues related to cost, scalability and security. This workshop will highlight the overlapping of these two domains of autonomous systems and the smart network technologies devoted for different applications for a large variety of domains: Healthcare, Medical, Underwater, Vehicular, Robotic, etc. Issues related to concepts, new technologies, testbeds and trials, and protocols will elicit particular attention.The workshop solicits papers addressing the following topics:
Smart Communications for Cloud Computing and Internet of things
Architecture and protocol for wireless based sensor networks
Vehicular applications of autonomous behavior
Underwater applications
Rural applications
Autonomous manipulation using service robots
Virtual networks and distributed Agent Platform
Pervasive communication in autonomous application fields
Rehabilitation robotics, exoskeletons, smart textile clothes and wearable robots applications
Context-awareness and ubiquitous robotics
Secure, scalable and low cost network paradigms applications
Techniques of sensing, actuation and recognition
Vehicular applications of autonomous behavior
Underwater applications
Rural applications
Design modeling and control of autonomous robotic systems
Assistive robotic technology
Energy optimization of autonomous systems
Monitoring and security of autonomous systems in intelligent environment
Context awareness using sensor networks
Network based transmission architecture for controlling autonomous systems
Real-time network based structure using sensors, actuators and transducers
All submitted papers will be rigorously reviewed and we will select papers based on their originality, timeliness, significance, and relevance to the workshop. All accepted papers must be presented and at least on author needs to register for the paper to be included in the workshop proceedings. Submitted papers should not be under consideration for publication anywhere else.
