Computer Networks (CN) is an academic journal published by Elsevier. (ISSN 1389-1286, impact factor 4.7, CCF B).

Aims & Scope The International Journal of Computer and Telecommunications Networking Computer Networks is an international, archival journal providing a publication vehicle for complete coverage of all topics of interest to those involved in the computer communications networking area. The audience includes researchers, managers and operators of networks as well as designers and implementors. The Editorial Board will consider any material for publication that is of interest to those groups. SUBJECT COVERAGE The topics covered by the journal but not limited to these are: 1. Communication Network Architectures: New design contributions on Local Area Networks (LANs), Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs), Wide Area Networks (WANs) including Wired, Wireless, Mobile, Cellular, Sensor, Optical, IP, ATM, and other related network technologies, as well as new switching technologies and the integration of various networking paradigms. 2. Communication Network Protocols: New design contributions on all protocol layers except the Physical Layer, considering all types of networks mentioned above and their performance evaluation; novel protocols, methods and algorithms related to, e.g., medium access control, error control, routing, resource discovery, multicasting, congestion and flow control, scheduling, multimedia quality of service, as well as protocol specification, testing and verification. 3. Network Services and Applications: Web, Web caching, Web performance, Middleware and operating system support for all types of networking, electronic commerce, quality of service, new adaptive applications, and multimedia services. 4. Network Security and Privacy: Security protocols, authentication, denial of service, anonymity, smartcards, intrusion detection, key management, viruses and other malicious codes, information flow, data integrity, mobile code and agent security. 5. Network Operation and Management: Including network pricing, network system software, quality of service, signaling protocols, mobility management, power management and power control algorithms, network planning, network dimensioning, network reliability, network performance measurements, network modeling and analysis, and overall system management. 6. Discrete Algorithms and Discrete Modeling Algorithmic and discrete aspects in the context of computer networking as well as mobile and wireless computing and communications. Fostering cooperation among practitioners and theoreticians in this field.TYPES OF CONTRIBUTIONS CONSIDERED The primary purpose of the journal is to publish original and complete papers covering a specific topic or project in the above mentioned areas in sufficient detail and depth to be of practical use to interested readers. The readers should benefit from the novel solutions and analyses presented in the papers. Enhanced, extended versions of quality papers presented at conferences or workshops can be submitted to our journal for review. Note that papers which were already published with the same contents or simultaneous submission of the same paper to other journals or conferences will not be considered for publication in our journal and will be immediately rejected. Dataset Articles. Computer Networks also publishes micro-articles that describe open datasets available in a redacted and organized way. The purpose is for researchers to easily share and reuse each other's datasets by publishing data articles that: (i) Describe collected data in detail, facilitating reproducibility of experiments and improvements over proposed techniques, thus promoting rigorous experimentation and data analysis. (ii) Describe tools developed to collect, analyze, and visualize data. Open-Source Software Articles. Computer Networks additionally publishes micro-articles that describe open source software that has been used to obtain scholarly results in the area of computer networks. This may include articles describing discrete-event or other simulators, emulation tools, software implementations of networking and communication functionalities and protocols, standard implementations, monitoring tools, among others.

Número especial sobre Wireless beyond limits: AI, 6G, Quantum, and new horizons Día de Entrega: 2027-01-31 Wireless communication networks are undergoing a profound transformation driven by the evolution from 5G towards 6G systems. Emerging paradigms such as non-terrestrial networks, joint communication and sensing, AI-native networking, open and softwarized radio access networks, Quantum technologies, and sustainability-aware architectures are reshaping how future wireless systems are designed, deployed, and operated. The 6G vision extends far beyond enhanced data rates, encompassing ultra-reliable and low-latency communications, massive intelligence at the edge, integrated sensing and communications, semantic and goal-oriented networking, and tight integration with cyber-physical systems, robotics, space infrastructures, and immersive applications. In this context, 6G networks are envisioned as AI-native systems, capable of self-configuration, self-optimization, and autonomous operation through the pervasive use of machine learning and artificial intelligence across all protocol layers. At the same time, emerging paradigms such as joint communication and sensing, semantic and goal-oriented communications, open and softwarized radio access networks, and in-network computing are redefining the architectural foundations of wireless systems. Alongside these developments, quantum technologies are emerging as a key enabler for future communication networks. Quantum communications, quantum sensing, and quantum-enhanced timing and synchronization have the potential to provide fundamentally new capabilities in terms of security, precision, and performance.
