***************************************************************************

ICCCN is one of the leading international conferences for presenting novel
ideas and fundamental advances in the fields of computer communications
and networks. ICCCN serves to foster communication among researchers and
practitioners with a common interest in improving computer communications
and networking through scientific and technological innovation. ICCCN 2014
is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Communication Society.  All presented
ICCCN 2014 papers in both the main conference and workshops will be indexed
in EI. 

Scope:
=====
The primary focus of the conference is on new and original research
results in the areas of design, implementation, and applications of
computer communications and networks. Topics of interest include, but are
not limited to, the following:

 - Cognitive, Cellular and Mobile Networks (CCM)
 - Comm. Architecture, Algorithms, Modeling and Evaluation (CAAME)
 - Data Centers and Big Data Computing (DCBC)
 - Green Networks and Sustainable Computing (GREEN)
 - Grid, Cloud, Internet and Peer-to-peer Computing and Comm. (GCIP)
 - Multimedia and Real-Time Networking (MRN)
 - Security, Privacy, and Trust (SPT)
 - Sensor/Embedded Networks and Pervasive Computing (SNPC)
 - Software Defined Networks and Network Testing and Deployment (SDN)
 - Wireless LAN, Ad Hoc, and Mesh Networks (WAM)

Instructions for Authors:
==================
Submitted manuscripts must be formatted in standard IEEE camera-ready
format (double-column, 10-pt font) and must be submitted via EasyChair
(http://www.easychair.org/) as PDF files (formatted for 8.5x11-inch
paper). The review version should be no longer than 8pages. The
camera-ready version can have up to two additional pages if the
authors pay an over-length charge at the time of publication
(camera-ready manuscripts should not exceed 10 pages in total).
Submitted papers should not be previously published in or be under
consideration for publication in another conference or journal.
Paper titles and/or author names cannot be changed and/or added to
the papers once papers are submitted to ICCCN 2014 for review. The
Program Committee reserves the right to not review papers that
either exceed the length specification or have been submitted or
published elsewhere. Submissions must include a title, abstract,
keywords, author(s) and affiliation(s) with postal and e-mail
address(es) and phone number(s). A paper abstract must be
registered on EasyChair by the deadline indicated below.

Review and Publication of Manuscripts:
=============================
Submitted papers will be reviewed by the TPC and judged on
originality, technical correctness, relevance, and quality of
presentation. An accepted paper must be presented at the conference
venue by one of the authors registered at the full registration
rate. Each full registration covers up to two papers authored by
the registered author. Accepted and presented papers will be
published in the conference proceedings and submitted to IEEE
Xplore as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases.
Note that each accepted paper must be presented by one of authors.
Papers of special merit will be selected for possible fast track
publication in the Computer Communications (COMCOM) journal.
Sponsored by the U.S. National Science Foundation, a number of
travel assistance grants will be available for ICCCN 2014 student
authors.

Workshops:
========
Please note that the page limit for the workshop program is
different. The review version should be no longer than 6 pages. The
camera-ready version can have up to two additional pages if the
authors pay an over-length charge at the time of publication
(camera-ready manuscripts should not exceed 8 pages in total). The
detailed info can be found in the workshop Call for Papers. For any
