The International Journal of Sensor Networks and Data Communications (IJSNDC) seeks to provide an opportunity for researchers from computer science, engineering and mathematical backgrounds to disseminate and exchange knowledge in the rapidly emerging field of ad hoc and sensor wired/wireless networks. IJSNDC proposes and fosters discussion on and dissemination of issues related to research and applications of distributed and wired/wireless sensor networks is an interdisciplinary field including many fields such as wireless networks and communications, protocols, distributed algorithms, signal processing, embedded systems, and information management.

The main focus of the IJSNDC is to publish original contributions, including regular papers, short papers, research notes and communications, review and survey papers. In order to provide timely dissemination of ideas whose evaluation may require significant time and impose publication delays, one of the unique features of this journal is to allow authors the publication of promising concepts and algorithms with either partial or without prior experimental evaluation. The International Journal of Sensor Networks and Data Communications is a high-quality, peer-reviewed scientific journal.

Readership: IJSNDC provides a vehicle to help professionals, academics, researchers, developers, and working in the field of sensor networks to disseminate information and to learn from each other’s work.

Contents: IJSNDC publishes original papers, short papers, and review papers. Special Issues devoted to important topics in wireless sensor networks will also be published.
