Automotive Networking – Technology, Design, and Applications

The Automotive Networking series is created to address the growing importance in vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications. Such importance led to allocation of new spectrum for this kind of communications and creation of R&D partnerships among governments, highway authorities, automobile manufacturers, and the academy community. The new Automotive Networking series invites manuscript submissions in the areas of:

Automotive networking applications, service creation and management
Automotive networks and system architectures
Physical and link layer technologies for V2V / V2I communications
Networking technologies for V2V / V2I communications (routing, multicast, mobility management, etc.)
Security and privacy technologies for V2V / V2I communications
Network management of automotive networking
Simulation and performance evaluation techniques for automotive networking
Experimental systems and testbeds for vehicular communications
Emerging standards in automotive networking

All submissions are peer reviewed to ensure that only the highest-quality original articles are published. Submitted articles should be written in a clear, concise language and at a level suitable for practicing engineers engaged in the design, development, and application of products, systems and networks. The length of the article should not exceed six magazine pages (approximately 4500 words), should not contain more than six to eight graphics / tables / photographs, and should not include more than 15 references.

Manuscripts must be submitted through the magazine’s submissions Web site at
