Intelligent Data Sensing, Collection and Dissemination in Mobile Computing

Submission Deadline: 15 October 2019

IEEE Access invites manuscript submissions in the area of Intelligent Data Sensing, Collection and Dissemination in Mobile Computing.

With the application of mobile computing, there could be more intelligent ways to sense and collect data, and to reduce the workload of participants. In addition, the scale of data sensing, collection and dissemination could increase. Mobile computing makes full use of various sensing devices, such as smart phones, wireless body sensors, smart sensing devices in manufacturing, and smart meters. These devices, which sense and collect data (on the order of zettabytes in the near future), together with the computing power of mobile devices, develop a new paradigm to data sensing, collection and dissemination. Mobile Computing has emerged as a prospective computing paradigm to pave the way to pervasive computing for mobile and big-data applications.

To ensure intelligent data sensing, data collection and data processing based on mobile computing over the pervasive computing environment, there are some fundamental challenges. Many open issues remain unresolved, such as how to achieve the expected performance for intelligent data sensing, data collection, data processing, and how to ensure the data quality, data reliability, information security and privacy in data collection/dissemination with intelligence. Other relevant aspects should also be studied, such as the computation cost, the platform, tools, service discovery, data management, and analytics for intelligent data collection and dissemination. These unresolved issues have been major research hotspots for many researchers since they are critical to ensuring rigid and efficient applications for intelligent data sensing, collection and dissemination in mobile computing.

To tackle the above issues and challenges, this Special Section in IEEE Access will present innovative solutions and recent advances in the domain of intelligent data sensing, collection and dissemination in mobile computing, which will provide a guide for the application and future research of mobile computing.
