[Tccc] First Call for Papers: JCM Special Issue on Road and Vehicular Communications and Applications
by Lavy Libman 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

Dear colleagues, Enclosed is a first Call of Papers for the Journal of Communications (JCM) Special Issue on Road and Vehicular Communications and Applications. Details are below or at http://www.academypublisher.com/jcm/si/jcmsi_rvca.html. ----- CALL FOR PAPERS Journal of Communications (JCM, ISSN 1796-2021) Special Issue on Road and Vehicular Communications and Applications The promise of safer roads and enhanced driver experience enabled by radio communication of location and traffic information among vehicles (V2V), as well as between vehicles and roadside infrastructure (V2I), has attracted researchers for a long time. Generally, progress has been relatively slow until a significant boost in the last few years became possible thanks to recent developments in standardization and enabling technology. The progress achieved in the development of the IEEE 802.11p standard for the PHY and MAC communication layers and the IEEE 1609 suite of standards defining higher-layer functionalities, such as resource management and security, and the allocation of spectrum in the Dedicated Short-Range Communications (DSRC) band in several countries, have led to growing experimental testbed evaluation of related technologies by industry and state road authorities. Despite these advances, the space of road and vehicular communications is in its infancy compared to more mature applications such as Wi-Fi or cellular networks, in both the fundamental research and the practical sense. There are many open questions remaining, ranging from physical-layer issues of the wireless channel behavior in the highly dynamic and interference-prone outdoor road environment, to specialized solutions for channel access, routing and mobility management, and to novel communication paradigms that go beyond the traditional point-to-point exchange of messages (e.g. geocasting). Above all, it is not yet clear which of the wealth of potential applications, ranging from safety and collision avoidance to driver assistance to traffic management to passenger infotainment, will take hold in the market and prove to be popular with the public. The Special Issue on Road and Vehicular Communications and Applications is soliciting original contributions on related advances in theoretical research, standardization work, experimental evaluation, and practical implementation and deployment. Submissions reporting on accomplished results as well as detailed surveys of the state-of-the-art are welcome. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: * Wireless channel behavior in the road and vehicular environment * Transceiver design for vehicles and roadside infrastructure * Medium-access protocols for vehicular communication * Protocols and algorithms for vehicular networks (VANET) * Cooperative communication and relaying * Opportunistic routing and forwarding * Location, navigation and mobility management * Geographical routing methods * Security and privacy in vehicular communications * V2V and V2I communications * Intra-vehicle wireless communication * Public transport communication systems * DSRC/WAVE standards * Experimental evaluation and testbed deployments * Applications of road and vehicular communications in safety and traffic management Submission Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished papers. Submissions should follow the author guidelines of Journal of Communications and the complete instructions for prospective authors can be found at http://www.academypublisher.com/jcm/forauthors.html. For further questions or inquiries, please contact the corresponding guest editor (Lavy Libman, l.libman(a)usyd.edu.au). Important Dates Submission Deadline: March 15, 2010 Author Notification: July 15, 2010 Final Manuscript due: August 10, 2010 Tentative Publication Date: September 2010 Guest Editors Alex Grant, University of South Australia & Cohda Wireless Bjorn Landfeldt, University of Sydney Tim Leinmüller,Denso Automotive Deutschland GmbH Lavy Libman, University of Sydney & NICTA _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

FG Energiebewusste Systeme und Methoden hinweisen. Wir werden dieses Fachgespräch im Rahmen eines Workshops der ARCS organisieren, d.h. die Beitraege werden auch im Tagungsband veröffentlicht (und bei IEEE gelistet, die ARCS Organisatoren arbeiten an diesem Thema). Das Fachgespräch ist grundsaetzlich als lockeres Diskussionsforum gedacht. Wir hoffen auf zahlreiche Beitraege aus Ihren Reihen und nat. auf aktive Teilnahme, nicht nur von Doktoranden, sondern auch von erfahreneren Teilnehmern, die sich in die Diskussion einbringen wollen und koennen. Viele Gruesse, Falko Dressler ------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS GI/ITG Workshop on Energy-aware Systems and Methods held in conjunction with ARCS 2010 - Architecture of Computing Systems February 22-23, 2010; Hannover, Germany <http://www7.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/~dressler/fg-energie/2010/> ------------------------------------------------------------------- Aims and scope -------------- Energy is considered a critical or even the most critical resource in many computing systems. Applications comprise a wide range of system capabilities including cloud computing, mobile laptops or PDAs, as well as cell phones, sensor networks, and deeply embedded devices. Thus, for functional and ecological reasons energy awareness and energy-aware operation are fundamental demands for any system. In recent years, a new research domain was established as an interdisciplinary field among different areas of computer science (e.g., operating systems and computer networks) and electrical engineering (e.g., wireless communication and chip design). Based on findings in the field of energy-aware systems and methods, novel application scenarios can be envisioned encompassing even stronger requirements on reliability, resilience, lifetime, adaptability, and self-organization. This workshop aims to provide a forum to discuss recent results in the field of energy-awareness that is a cross-cutting concern in many areas in systems research. Based on intensive discussions of energy-critical issues in the different layers and the different approaches to energy-aware system design, the participants will be able to study energy-related problems from multiple perspectives and to look into the complex interactions among those layers. We especially encourage PhD students to participate, to share their ideas and findings, and to network with other fellows working in the same field. Topics of interest ------------------ Whereas the workshop mainly focuses on energy-aware systems and methods, contributions are favored that span all the related fields of study. This includes the following aspects: - Operating system support - Communication methods - Protocol engineering - Simulation techniques - Cross-layer design of energy-aware systems - Application and hardware support for energy-aware operation Organization ------------ The workshop is organized as a follow-up to the successful “GI/ITG Fachgespräch” on energy-aware systems and methods. Key organizers are Prof. Dr. Frank Bellosa (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology), PD Dr. Falko Dressler (University of Erlangen), and Prof. Dr. Dirk Timmermann (University of Rostock).

[Fwd: [Tccc] ICC 2010 E2NETS Workshop Call for Papers]
by Lars Wolf 10 Nov '09

10 Nov '09

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] ICC 2010 E2NETS Workshop Call for Papers Datum: Mon, 9 Nov 2009 20:30:20 +0200 Von: Hakan Delic <delic(a)boun.edu.tr> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu IEEE ICC-2010 Workshop on Energy Efficiency in Wireless Networks & Wireless Networks for Energy Efficiency http://www.e2nets.tudelft.nl to be held in conjunction with the IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC 2010) 23-27 May 2010 Cape Town, South Africa at Cape Town's International Conference Centre (CTICC). The two seemingly distinct topics of E2NETS are very important for overall energy efficiency in the future. Instead of looking at them separately, it is useful to arrange a venue for the researchers and practitioners in these two fields to come together and interact. This workshop aims to build this cooperation. Energy Efficiency in Wireless Networks: According to the GESI study, the ICT sector contributes around two per cent of global greenhouse gas (CHG) emissions. To increase the competitiveness, energy efficiency (E2) must also be a design criterion of the network and service architectures. Flexible networks that adapt their capacity to the requirements can lead to significant energy savings. Novel networking paradigms need to be introduced to assure that all components are used with maximum utilization. Green network architectures will be the cross-layer, cognitive and cooperative aggregation of techniques and mechanisms to provide a communication infrastructure where the energy consumption is minimized while guaranteeing the quality/grade of service required by the applications. Along with energy efficiency, spectrum utilization is to be optimized and radiation is to be minimized. Green networking is not only the evolution of legacy networking paradigms but also the revolution of the visionary hybrid networks which is the convergence of the heterogeneous wired, wireless and ad hoc networks. In this workshop, the following topics of energy efficiency in wireless networks are considered: * Physical layer techniques, channel/network coding for energy efficiency. * Methodologies /architectures for energy efficiency. * Energy-efficiency measures. * Energy-efficient flooding/multicast for service discovery. * Collaborative/cooperative/cognitive networking protocols for energy efficiency. * Algorithms for scheduling and resource management. * Energy harvesting. * Cooperative green communications for energy efficiency. * User mobility modeling to predict and adapt to patterns. * Hybrid fibre-wireless networks for energy-efficient delivery of wireless signals. Wireless Networks for Energy Efficiency: To address the other 98 per cent of the global CHG emissions, wireless networks can be used to reduce the energy consumption of industrial/home/office environments/applications. For example, along with the research in low-carbon road transportation technologies, wireless networks can be employed to analyze the traffic jams and help navigators to find a suitable route leading to energy savings. To this extent, in this workshop the topics of wireless networks for energy efficiency consist of: * ICT for minimization of the energy consumption of other systems such as transportation, houses, offices and industrial buildings. * Energy efficient cloud computing, smart grids and emerging applications. * Sensor networks for energy efficiency in industrial/harsh environments. * Vehicular networks to reduce the CHG emissions. * New designs of equipments/architectures for energy efficiency. * Energy efficient virtualization of resources. Accepted workshop papers will be available on the IEEE eXplore database and included in the CD proceedings of the IEEE ICC 2010. Paper submission via EDAS, http://www.edas.info. Full papers due: Dec 15 2009 Acceptance notification: Jan 30 2010 Camera ready version: Feb 10 2010 General Chair Ignas Niemegeers, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands Publicity Chair Hakan Delic, Bogazici University, Turkey Technical Program Committee Chair R. Venkatesha Prasad, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands Technical Program Committee Co-Chair Ertan Onur, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands What is different? The format of the workshop consists of four sessions three of which will be dedicated to presentation sessions and posters. The remaining session will be slightly different from the usual chores such as panel or keynote. Here we have identified clearly two important groups, E2 in Wireless Networks and Wireless Networks for E2, which are interconnected and interrelated. Both have been currently looked into ýntensively, not only by researchers, but also by the industry. The recent trend is that the governments of various countries have started seriously encouraging ICT community participation in reducing the energy consumption, as well as energy wastage. Surely this has to be taken into account by the ICT community. The pool of participants, including authors of papers, will be divided into the two groups, the E2 in Wireless Networks and Wireless Networks for E2. These two groups headed by senior academician/industrialist will hold separate discussions for 45 min. The mandate is to come up with a list of research ideas, as well as implementation strategies for the topics of their group. Then they will present their ideas and discuss for the next 45 minutes with all of the participants. This strategy should help in identifying issues quickly in a larger perspective. It is expected to help academics, industry and policy makers to quickly crystallize thoughts and work towards the important challenges and optimize their resources for this important challenge for future generations to come. It is also expected that after the discussions the two groups bring forth a list of ideas for future project proposals. We will encourage the participants to team up and work together for their future proposals. The by-product of this exercise is that convergence of these two seemingly separate trends will start cooperation with each other. Contact Information R.

Opportunistic networks are commonly defined as a type of challenged networks where communication opportunities are based on sporadic and intermittent contacts, disconnections and re-connections may frequently occur, and the assumption on the existence of an end-to-end path between the source and the destination is released. As compared to the legacy MANETs, where an always-connected infrastructure-less network is assumed, opportunistic networks are much closer to real pervasive networking scenarios, where devices (with sensing capabilities) are carried while users move, and can connect and disconnect continuously relying their communication chances on a store-carry-and-forward approach. The aim of MobiOpp 2010 is to bring together researchers working in this emerging area, thus also providing a reference event for those working on self-organizing wireless mobile networks which usually exploit the opportunistic communication paradigm. In this workshop we aim to explore novel research issues related to all aspects of opportunistic networks. Original contributions are solicited, being related to systems and protocols design, development and analysis, in all areas of Opportunistic Networking. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Novel architectures * Routing protocols * Transport and reliability issues in opportunistic networks * Resource management techniques * Dissemination and replication techniques * Opportunistic networking in P2P systems * Social-aware opportunisitc networking * Middleware services in opportunistic networks * Opportunistic networking applications * Opportunistic networking in wireless sensor networks * Multimodal urban sensing * Security issues in opportunistic networks * Trust and cooperation in opportunistic networks * Mobility models for opportunistic networks * Tools and techniques for designing, analyzing and building opportunistic networks * Opportunistic networks testbeds and measurements * Opportunistic networks performance modeling The workshop proceedings will be published by ACM. Extended versions of workshop selected papers will be considered for possible fast track publication in the Computer Communications Journal (Elsevier) Important dates -------------------- Papers submission deadline: November 11, 2009 (extended deadline) Acceptance Notification: December 22, 2009 Camera Ready deadline: January 22, 2010 Workshop dates: February 22-23, 2010 ORGANIZING COMMITTEE General Chair Sergio Palazzo, University of Catania, Italy Program Co-Chairs Tracy Camp, Colorado School of Mines, USA Marco Conti, IIT-CNR, Italy Steering Committee Marco Conti, IIT-CNR, Italy Jon Crowcroft, University of Cambridge, UK Serge Fdida, Univ.
