Dear Prof. Lorincz: Greetings! Hope this mail finds you well. Let me introduce myself as Debashis, co-Editor-in-Chief of the journal IJBDCN (http://www.igi-global.com/journal/international-journal-business-data-communications/1087). I am writing to you on behalf of the editorial board of the journal.
When we saw your recent posting on "3rd Symposium on Green Networking and Computing/SoftCOM 2012" in TCCC mailing list, we were wondering if you can plan a special issue of the journal IJBDCN with selected papers on 'Green Networking' from the said symposium. The reason behind selecting your conference is the theme of your conference that matches perfectly with our planned topics for the IJBDCN for the year 2013-14. You will be the guest editor of the special issue. We may decide on the timing of publication and other modalities once you agree with this initial proposal. We look forward to hearing from you positively in this regard at your earliest convenience. Thanking you, With regards, -Debashis Co-EiC, IJBDCN -- //** Innovation is a journey, not a destination. **// Prof. Debashis Saha, Ph.
