Introduction

The technical track on Wireless Communications and Networking (WCN) of the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC 2017) will be held in Marrackech, Morocco, April 3 - 7, 2017.

Research on Wireless Communications and Networking (WCN) has been able to improve our lives in the multiple ways. The need to communicate anytime, anywhere brought us many new wireless and networking technologies that we are using today, including cellular networks (3G/4G/5G), ad-hoc networks, sensor networks, WiMAX, etc. The invention of these technologies has created a new paradigm of research and developments. In particular, the past decade has seen a significant surge of research activities in wireless communications and networking. While a number of their applications and services have been introduced, the demands for new applications still exist, requiring technical challenges to become bigger every day. In addition to the WCN research topics, a great number of individuals, researchers, academics are emphasizing new novel ideas and improving the performance of next generation of networking paradigms such as Future Internet architectures, Data centric communications, and so on. This special track aims to bring together researchers, academics, individuals working on selected areas of wireless communications and networking to share their new ideas, latest findings and results.
