Dear Colleagues,

With the fast-growing of Internet, how to fully utilize existing resources on networks and networked systems to provide resilient and high quality services to users is becoming more and more critical. Furthermore, security and privacy need to be addressed for users to share and protect network resource. Modeling technologies and performance analysis are needed to address new types of resource management in heterogeneous networks.

This special issue seeks high quality research papers on any aspect of resource management on networks and networked systems, including but not limited to (1) end-to-end resource management; (2) resource management on cloud computing; (3) acceleration technologies for networking, security, resource management, etc.; (4)power/thermal issues in network resource management; (5) network protocol support for virtualization, power efficiency, dynamic QoS, and other features.
