Feature papers represent the most advanced research with significant potential for high impact in the field. A Feature Paper should be a substantial original Article that involves several techniques or approaches, provides an outlook for future research directions and describes possible research applications.
Feature papers are submitted upon individual invitation or recommendation by the scientific editors and must receive positive feedback from the reviewers.
Editor’s Choice articles are based on recommendations by the scientific editors of MDPI journals from around the world. Editors select a small number of articles recently published in the journal that they believe will be particularly interesting to readers, or important in the respective research area. The aim is to provide a snapshot of some of the most exciting work published in the various research areas of the journal.

Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the JSAN Award Committee, I am pleased to announce the winner of the JSAN Travel Award 2019. Established with the aim of supporting junior scientists to attend international scientific conferences, this year’s Travel Award will be granted to an outstanding postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Alfonso González Briones.
Dr. Alfonso González Briones is a post-doctoral researcher from the Department of Computer Science and Automation, University of Salamanca, Salamanca, Spain. His main research interests are Smart Cities, Energy Efficiency, and Edge computing. He plans to present his work at the 16th International Conference on the European Energy Market (EEM19), which will be held on 18th–20th September 2019, in Ljubljana, Slovenia. His work is on energy optimization through the development of intelligent architectures that allow reducing consumption without having to make significant investments in buildings and housing. These architectures are based on agents which use agreement technologies (AT) to establish a consensus among users, guaranteeing a high level of comfort. The agreed comfort preferences are then negotiated in real time with the lighting system, the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system through the deployed wireless sensor network (WSN).
The award consists of 600 Swiss Francs for Dr. González Briones to attend any academic conference in 2019.

Ms. Shuaibing Lu's current research topic is data center networks, especially the virtualization area, high performance computing, and resource allocation. She plans to attend the IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC 2018, Kansas City, MO, USA, http://icc2018.ieee-icc.org/) to present her paper “Maximum Elastic Scheduling of Virtual Machines for Cloud-Based Data Center Networks”.
Mr. Jorge Maestre Vidal’s main research interests are artificial intelligence, pattern recognition and information security. He plans to attend the 13th International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (ARES 2018), which will be held from August 27–30, 2018 at the University of Hamburg, Germany (https://www.ares-conference.eu). He will present research related to the mitigation of economic denial of sustainability (EDoS) attacks on 5G environments.
The awards consisted of 800 Swiss Francs each for them to attend the conferences in 2018.
