Editorial: Inttroduction of New Associate Editors
Mani B. Srivastava · IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing · 2010
R we have added to the editorial board several new Associate Editors to a) fi ll gaps left by Associate Editors whose terms expired, b) strengthen expertise in areas where we are now receiving a large number of papers, and c) add editorial board members from countries that are not well represented. It is my pleasure to introduce these new Associate Editors: Amotz Bar-Noy, Mun Choon Chan, Tamer ElBatt, Dennis Goeckel, Marco Gruteser, Yunhao Liu, Petri Mahonen, and Cormac Sreenan. Together, these Associate Editors bring expertise in areas such as localization, cognitive networks, security, experimental systems, theoretical foundations, and mobile networks. Furthermore, these new members represent many different countries—Egypt, Germany, Ireland, Singapore, Taiwan, and the United States—thus tremendously enhancing the geographical diversity. I would like to thank them for agreeing to serve on the editorial board. Their biographies are included below. Additionally, I would like to thank several Associate Editors whose terms ended or who stepped down for personal reasons in recent months. These include Tarek Abdelzaher, Marco Conti, Mark Corner, Ravi Prakash, Krithi Ramamritham, Ram Ramanathan, Jie Wu, and Wei Ye. These AEs brought unique expertise to the journal, which we will miss. I would like to express my appreciation for their dedicated service in recent years. I would like to thank our readers and authors for their continued support of TMC, and also the members of the Editorial Board, the Steering Committee, and the Computer Society staff for their help in making this journal succeed. TMC continues to be the most desirable and cited journal in mobile and wireless computing and networking, and this would not be possible without all this support. Please feel free to send me your feedback and suggestions about the journal and its direction. I look forward to hearing from you.
