This thematic series intends to publish high quality original research as
well as review articles on case studies, models and methods for the modeling
and simulation of large-scale and/or complex computer communication networks
using various approaches such as:

Complex communication networks/Complex social networks (such as modeled
using tools such as Gephi, Network Workbench and others)
Agent-based models (such as based on NetLogo, Repast, Mason, Swarm and
others)
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

Multiagent systems
Cognitive Sensor Networks
Wireless Sensor Networks
Sensor Actuator Networks
Cloud computing
Internet of Things
Service-oriented architectures
Pervasive Computing
Mobile Computing
Nano-Communication Networks
Peer-to-peer networks
