This is the 27th Edition of the International Conference on Information Networking (ICOIN), which was originally started under the name of Joint Workshop on Computer Communication in 1986. ICOIN 2013 will take place in Bangkok, Thailand. The conference is organized by Korea Institute of Information Scientists and Engineers (KIISE) and technically co-sponsored by IEEE Computer Society & IEICE Communications Society. All accepted papers will be published in the proceedings with an assigned IEEE ISBN number, and will also be submitted for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library and indexing by SCOPUS. ICOIN 2013 looks for your valuable contributions to the computer communications, wireless/mobile networks, and converged networks in the theoretical and practical aspects.

Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate recent advances in computer communications, wireless/mobile networks, and converged networks. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

Ad-hoc and sensor networks B4G cellular systems and Device-to-Device communications Cellular networks and broadband wireless access Cloud computing and networks Cognitive radio, cooperative communication and networking Congestion/flow control Content distribution network (CDN) Contents/Information centric networking (CCN/ICN) Cross-layer design and optimization Cyber-physical system (CPS) Delay/Disruption tolerant network (DTN) Distributed database and data mining Energy-efficient protocols, green networks, and smart grid Future Internet and future networks Internet and Web-based database systems and applications Internet of things and Machine-to-machine communications Multimedia/database systems for network applications Networked computing systems and devices Network coding Network convergence technology

Network performance analysis/measurement and evaluation Network security, trust and privacy Network simulation and modeling Network survivability and reliability Network traffic management Optical networks Operating systems and middleware support for networking Peer-to-peer (P2P)/Overlay networks Pricing and billing QoS and resource management Quantum communications Routing, switching, and addressing Smart grid Social computing and networks Software defined networking (SDN) and network virtualization Ubiquitous home and office networking Vehicular and underwater networks Wireless/mobile networks (WBAN/WPAN/WLAN/WMAN/WWAN) Wireless mesh/multihop networks
