SCOPE AND OVERVIEW
------------------

The Q2SWinet 2021 symposium aims at serving as a meeting point and a 
forum for exchanging ideas, discussing solutions, and sharing 
experiences among researchers, professionals, and application 
developers, both from industry and academia. As with the previous 
sixteen editions of the Q2SWinet symposium series, the scope of this 
year’s symposium will remain on general issues related to QoS and 
security in wireless and mobile networks networking and computing.

Topics of interest :
In Recent years, wireless and mobile communication systems have become 
increasingly popular as an inexpensive and promising means for 
ubiquitous communications. However, without creating a new set of issues 
and trade-offs. QoS and Security management of wireless and mobile 
communication systems are becoming a very crutial phase for future 
generation of wireless and mobile networks.

This symposium focuses on the study of all aspects of QoS and Security 
for wireless and mobile networks.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

- Wireless and mobile network security (WLAN, PCS, Ad hoc and Sensor 
  Networks, Wireless Mesh, etc. )
- QoS for wireless networks,
- Intrusion detection in wireless ad hoc and sensor networks
- Privacy and authentication
- QoS for data analytics and machine learning
- QoS for wireless multimedia systems, VoIP QoS
- Quality of control of wireless networks
- Power and energy management
- Wireless video surveillance networks
- QoS in the Wireless Internet
- QoS in software-defined networking for wireless and mobile systems
- QoS and Routing
- Data analytics for QoS
- QoS Metrics
- Security, privacy
- QoS in mobile cloud computing, fog computing and edge computing
- QoS in Internet of Things (IoT), and mobile cyber-physical networks
- Blockchain for QoS
- QoS in mobile and next generation vehicular and sensor networks
- QoS of Wireless Network Services
- Wireless Network Survivability
- QoS and Reliability
- Image Quality in Wireless Video-Surveillance Networks
- QoS provisioning in wireless multmedia systems.
- Wireless and mobile systems and applications
- QoE in wireless multimedia networks
- Performance Modeling and Simulation Techniques
- QoS/QoE for Vehicular and wireless sensor networks
