*_FMEC 2020 CFP:_*

Cloud computing provides large range of services and virtually unlimited 
available resources for users. New applications, such as virtual reality 
and smart building control, have emerged due to the large number of 
resources and services brought by cloud computing. However, the 
delay-sensitive applications face the problem of large latency, 
especially when several smart devices and objects are getting involved 
in human’s life such as the case of smart cities or Internet of Things. 
Therefore, cloud computing is unable to meet the requirements of low 
latency, location awareness, and mobility support. To solve this 
problem, researchers have introduced a trusted and dependable solution 
through the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC) to put the services 
and resources of the cloud closer to users, which facilitates the 
leveraging of available services and resources in the edge networks. By 
this, we are moving from the core (cloud data centers) to the edge of 
the network closer to the users. FMEC dependability is based on 
providing user centric service. The purpose of Fog and the Mobile Edge 
Computing is to run the heavy real-time applications at the network edge 
directly using the billions of connected mobile devices.

Several features enable the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing to be a 
perfect paradigm to the aforementioned purpose, which are the dense 
geographical deployment of servers, supporting mobility and the 
closeness to users. As in every new technology, some challenges face the 
vision of the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing, which are the 
administrative policies and security concerns (i.e. secure data storage, 
secure computation, network security, data privacy, usage privacy, 
location privacy, etc).

FMEC 2020 conference aims to investigate the opportunities and 
requirements for Mobile Edge Computing dominance. In addition, it seeks 
for novel contributions that help mitigating Mobile Edge Computing 
challenges. That is, the objective of FMEC 2020 is to provide a forum 
for scientists, engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange new 
ideas, novel results and experience on all aspects of Fog and Mobile 
Edge Computing (FMEC). FMEC is Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE France 
Section.

all major areas, which include, but not limited to:

* Mobile Cloud Computing Systems.
* FMEC Security and Privacy Issues.

*_Submissions Guidelines and Proceedings :_*

Manuscripts should be prepared in 10-point font using the IEEE 8.5" x 
11" two-column format. All papers should be in PDF format, and submitted 
electronically at Paper Submission Link. A full paper can be up to 8 
pages (including all figures, tables and references). Submitted papers 
must present original unpublished research that is not currently under 
review for any other conference or journal. Papers not following these 
guidelines may be rejected without review. Also submissions received 
after the due date, exceeding length limit, or not appropriately 
structured may also not be considered. Authors may contact the Program 
Chair for further information or clarification.

All submissions are peer-reviewed by at least three reviewers. Accepted 
papers will appear in the FMEC Proceeding, and be published by the IEEE 
Computer Society Conference Publishing Services and be submitted to IEEE 
Xplore for inclusion. Submitted papers must include original work, and 
must not be under consideration for another conference or journal. 
Submission of regular papers up to 8 pages and must follow the IEEE 
paper format. Please include up to 7 keywords, complete postal and 
e-mail address, and fax and phone numbers of the corresponding author. 
Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their work at the 
conference. Submitted papers that are deemed of good quality but that 
could not be accepted as regular papers will be accepted as short 
papers. Length of short papers can be between 4 to 6 pages.
