CROWNCOM 2015
Preface
2015 marks the 10th anniversary of the International Conference on Cognitive
Radio-Oriented Wireless Networks (Crowncom). Crowncom 2015 was jointly hosted
byTexasA&MUniversityatQatarandHamadBinKhalifaUniversityinDoha,Qatar,
April21–23,2015.Theeventwasaspecialoccasiontolookbackatthecontributionof
Crowncom towardthe advancements of cognitiveradio technology since its inaugural
conference in 2006 in Mykonos, Greece, as well as to look forward to the decades
ahead,thewaysthatcognitiveradiotechnologywouldliketoevolve,andthewaysits
emerging applications and services can ensure everyone is connected everywhere.
Evolution of cognitive radio technology pertaining to 5G networks was the theme
of the 2015 edition of Crowncom. The technical program of Crowncom 2015 was
structuredtobringacademicandindustrialresearcherstogethertoidentifyanddiscuss
recent developments, highlight the challenging gaps, and forecast the future trends of
cognitive radio technology toward its integration with the 5G network deployment.
One of the key topics of the conference was cognition and self-organization in the
future networks, which are now widely considered as a striking solution to cope with
thefutureever-increasingspectrademands.Goingbeyondthetheoreticaldevelopment
and investigation, further practical advances and standardization developments in this
technology could provide potential dynamic solutions to cellular traffic congestion
problems by exploiting new and underutilized spectral resources. One of the chal-
lenging issues that Crowncom 2015 brought forward was to facilitate the heteroge-
neous demandsof users inheterogeneous-type environments—particularly inthe5G
network paradigm, where the networks are anticipated to incorporate the provision of
high-quality services to users with extremely low delays and consider these require-
mentswithoutexplicitdemandfromusers.Machine-typecommunicationsandInternet
ofEverythingarenowrepresentingemergingusecasesofsuchubiquitousconnectivity
over limited spectra.
Crowncom 2015 strongly advocated that the research community, practitioners,
standardization bodies, and developers should collaborate on their research efforts to
further align the development initiatives toward the evolution of emerging highly
dynamicspectrumaccessframeworks.Thebiggestchallengeistodesignunifiedcross-
layer new network architectures for successful aggregation of licensed and unlicensed
spectra, addressing the spectrum scarcity problem for ubiquitous connectivity and
preparing the ground for “The Age of the ZetaByte.”
Crowncom 2015 received a large number of submissions, and it was a challenging
task to select the best and most relevant meritorious papers to reflect the theme of the
2015 edition of Crowncom. All submissions received high-quality reviews from the
Technical Program Committee (TPC) members/reviewers and eventually 66 technical
papers(withanacceptanceratioof56%)wereselectedforthetechnicalprogramofthe
VI CROWNCOM 2015
conference. The technical program of Crowncom 2015 is the result of the tireless
efforts of 14 track chairs, and more than 200 TPC members and reviewers. We are
gratefultothetrackchairsforhandlingthepaperreviewprocessandtheiroutstanding
efforts, and to the reviewers/TPC for their high-quality evaluations. We offer our
sincere gratitude to the Advisory Committee, local Organizing Committee (especially
colleagues at Texas A&M University at Qatar), and the Steering Committee members
for their insightful guidance. We would like to acknowledge the invaluable support
from European Alliance for Innovation and the Qatar National Research Fund for the
success of Crowncom 2015.
