​The 4th IEEE International Workshop on Mobile Cloud Computing systems,
Management, and Security (MCSMS-2018)​

http://emergingtechnet.org/MCSMS2018/

in conjunction with
​The IEEE Third International Conference on Fog and Mobile Edge ​Computing
(FMEC 2018)​ <http://emergingtechnet.org/FMEC2018/index.php>


Barcelona, Spain. April 23-26, 2018

​​*   (Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Spain Section)*​​

 *Call for Papers:*

With a Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) market value of US$9.5 billion in 2014
and with more than 1 trillion cloud-ready devices in the next four years,
MCC is considered as one of today's hottest new technologies in both
academia and industry. MCC integrates different major technologies such as
smart devices technologies (phones, tablets, watches, …etc), cloud
services, big data, and cloud computing in one platform that services the
end users. Despite the rapid growth of MCC, many issues are still
challenging and need to be addressed. These challenges are related to the
underlying networks, cloud services, security, the required Quality of
Service, the availability of services, the needed user data management, and
many others. The International Workshop on Mobile Cloud Computing systems,
Management, and Security (MCSMS) is introduced as a forum for scientists,
researchers, students, and practitioners to present their latest research
results, ideas, and developments in the area of Mobile Cloud Computing that
addresses the aforementioned challenges. MCSMS 2018 workshop aims to
investigate the opportunities and requirements for Mobile Cloud Computing,
as well as Fog and Edge Computing domains. The objective of MCSMS2018 is to
provide a forum for scientists, engineers, and researchers to discuss their
research and results on all aspects of Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) as well
as Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC). Researchers are encouraged to
submit original research contributions in all major areas, which include,
but not limited to:

* Mobile Cloud Computing Systems.

* Mobile Cloud Computing Security and Privacy Issues.

* Mobile Cloud Computing Pricing and billing models.

* Mobile Cloud Computing support for VANETS and MANETS

* Cloudlet based computing

* Lightweight authentication mechanisms in Mobile Cloud Computing
architecture.

* Access Control models in Mobile Cloud Computing.

* Identification of incentives for FMEC service providers.

* The future perspective for Mobile Cloud Computing: Challenges and Open
Issues.
