*Conference Scope & Tracks   *
=======================
IEEE MASS 2020 is a premier annual forum for sharing original, novel ideas
in mobile ad-hoc networks and smart systems, defined broadly. As wireless
ad-hoc networks continue to evolve and specialize into a number of
application scenarios and environments, and sensor-based systems and
technologies increasingly permeate our everyday life and become the inner
fabric of the Internet of Things and Cyber Physical Systems, the unfolding
of smart environments such as smart cities, smart farming, smart
healthcare, and smart manufacturing, to name a few, demand integrated
solutions that can make intelligent use of both cloud and edge systems,
while applying machine learning and artificial intelligence tools to handle
their growing complexity and to leverage the vast amount of available
data.  Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society, the 17th edition of the IEEE
International Conference on Mobile Ad-Hoc and Smart Systems (MASS) will be
held in Delhi NCR, India during October 1-4, 2020, and it aims at bringing
together researchers, developers, and practitioners to address recent
advances in mobile ad-hoc and smart systems, covering algorithms, theory,
protocols, systems & applications, experimental evaluations and testbeds,
security/privacy, as well as AI/ML-based smart design.

*Submission Procedure:*
==================
Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that
are not currently under review elsewhere. All submissions should be written
in English with a maximum length of 9 single-spaced, double-column pages
using 10pt fonts on 8.5 x 11 inch paper, including all figures, tables, and
references, in PDF format. Authors must use the Manuscript Templates for
IEEE Conference Proceedings. Accepted papers will appear in the conference
proceedings published by IEEE and will be presented at the conference.
Based on TPC reviews and discussions, some papers may be accepted as 5-page
short papers, or 2-page posters in addition to the regular 9 page papers.
For all papers, IEEE reserves the right to exclude the paper from
distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the
paper is not presented at the conference. Note that the conference will
also include a poster and demo session.
