*The 15th International Conference on Ad Hoc Networks and Wireless* http://adhocnow2017.unime.it *AdHoc-Now 2017* *20-22 September 2017* *Messina, Italy* Since its creation in 2002, the International Conference on Ad Hoc Networks and Wireless (AdHoc-Now) has become a well‐established and well known event dedicated to wireless and mobile computing. It serves as a forum for interesting discussions on ongoing research and new contributions. The conference addresses both experimental and theoretical research in the areas of ad hoc networks, sensor networks, mesh networks and vehicular networks. It focuses on all issues from link layer up to the application layer. The sixteen edition of AdHoc‐Now will be organized from September 20th to 22th 2017 in Messina, Italy. We seek original contributions as work in progress, experimental and theoretical research in Wireless Sensor, Ad‐Hoc, Mobile and Wireless Networks. The proceedings of the conference will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) <http://www.springer.com/lncs>. Submissions must not be published or under review for another conference or journal. All manuscripts must be in English. We are interested, but not limited to, research papers in any of the following areas: - Access Control - Ad Hoc Networks of Autonomous Intelligent Systems - Algorithmic Issues - Analytic Methods and Modeling for Performance Evaluation - Ad Hoc Network Applications and Architectures - Delay-Tolerant Networking - Distributed Algorithms for Ad Hoc Networks - Energy Efficiency - Geometric Graphs - Location Discovery and Management - Mobility Handling and Utilization - Wireless Mesh Networks - Big Data Inspired Data Sensing - Mobile Ad Hoc Computing Platforms - Internet of Things - Edge/fog computing - Systems and Testbeds - Mobile Social Networking - Quality-of-Service - Routing Protocols (Unicast, Multicast, etc.) - Secure Services and Protocols - Sensor Networks - Self-Configuration - Service Discovery - Timing Synchronization - Vehicular Networks - Wireless Internet - Processing and Networking Technologies Complexity and Computational Issues - Prototype systems and real-world deployment experiences *Conference Chair* Antonio Puliafito, University of Messina, Italy *Technical Program Committee Co-Chairs* Dario Bruneo, University of Messina, Italy Salvatore Distefano, University of Kazan, Russia Francesco Longo, University of Messina, Italy *Publicity Arrangements Chairs* Giovanni Merlino, University of Messina, Italy Riccardo Di Pietro, University of Catania, Italy *Proceedings Chair* Maddalena Nurchis, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, Spain *Submissions & Registrations Chairs* Marco Scarpa, University of Messina, Italy Giuseppe Tricomi, University of Messina, Italy *Local Arrangements Co-Chairs* Maurizio Giacobbe, University of Messina, Italy Alfonso Panarello, University of Messina, Italy Rossana Morana, University of Messina, Italy *Web Chair* Riccardo Petrolo, Rice University, USA *Technical Program Committee* Assis Flavio, UFBA – Federal University of Bahia Barcelo-Ordinas Jose M., UPC Benenson Zinaida, FAU, Germany Calafate Carlos, Universitat Politècnica de València, Spain Cano Juan-Carlos, UPV, Spain Falcon Rafael, University of Ottawa, Canada Fischer Stefan, Universität zu Lübeck Fortino Giancarlo, University of Calabria Gozalvez Javier, Miguel Hernandez University of Elche, Spain Karyotis Vasileios, National Technical University of Athens Khelil Abdelmajid, Landshut University of Applied Sciences, Germany Klasing Ralf, CNRS and University of Bordeaux, France Martinez Francisco J., University of Zaragoza, Spain Mezei Ivan, University of Novi Sad, Serbia Pfisterer Dennis, University of Lübeck, Germany Rodrigues Joel, National institute of Telecommunications (Inatel), Brazil Syrotiuk Violet, Arizona State University Tsiropoulou Eirini Eleni, University of Maryland,College Park Turau Volker, Hamburg University of Technology Wang Cheng Wrona Konrad, NCI Agency, The Netherlands Xin Qin, University of the Faroe Islands Papavassiliou Symeon, NTUA El Barrak Soumaya, Abdelmalek Essaâdi University, Morocco Lyhyaoui Abdelouahid, National School of Applied Sciences of Tangier Cao Jiannong, Abdelmalek Essaâdi University Giacobbe Maurizio, University of Messina Telek Miklos, Univer.
