The concept of smart city evolved with the integration of information and communication
technology (ICT) in various sub-systems and processes in urban environment. The …

Mobile devices have several restrictions due to design choices that guarantee their mobility.
A way of surpassing such limitations is to utilize cloud servers called cloudlets on the edge …

With IoT-based smart cities, massive heterogeneous IoT devices are running diverse
advanced services for unprecedented intelligence and efficiency in various domains of city …

As nodes have limited resources in the socially aware networks, they will have strong selfish
behaviors, such as not forwarding messages and losing packets, which will lead to poor …

Data transmission in socially aware networks is usually accomplished through opportunistic
peer-to-peer links in a storage-carry-forward way. This way demands nodes to actively …

To meet the surging demands on network throughput and spectrum resources arising with
billions of Internet-of-Things mobile devices (IMDs), ultradense networks are envisioned to …

Fifth Generation (5G) wireless systems are expected to connect an avalanche of “smart”
objects disseminated from the largest “Smart City” to the smallest “Smart Home”. In this …

The emergence of fog computing has brought unprecedented opportunities to the Internet-of-
Things (IoT) field, and it is now feasible to incorporate deep learning at the edge of the IoT …

In this paper, we study the deadline-aware task data offloading in edge-cloud computing
systems. The hard-deadline tasks strictly demand to be processed within their delay …

Indoor navigation and localization are becoming fundamental services nowadays. WiFi-
