Numerous attractive protocols have been proposed, which are expected to network places and devices that currently do not have the opportunity of "going online". Such environments reside at the edges of the current Internet infrastructure. For example, public and private transport vehicles, underwater, satellite and deep-space networks are potential DTN deployments of interest. Communication in the above-mentioned challenged environments is usually infrastructureless and consists mainly of mobile battery-powered devices. Moreover, mobility patterns are usually unknown, making connectivity periods between DTN-nodes intermittent and opportunistic. To achieve communication in such environments one has to deal with several performance tradeoffs, such as end-to-end delivery delay and energy consumption, or reliability and storage congestion. Since, in most cases, end-to-end connectivity does not exist (hence the difference from ad hoc networking) current Internet protocols fail permanently. Although there have already been a lot of research proposals for routing, (storage) congestion control, error control and application design for such networks, the IRTF has focused mainly on the Bundle Protocol (BP); BP is an application layer protocol that does not include the appropriate functionalities to deal with issues such as routing or storage congestion, for example. That said, DTN research and its future directions seem to lack a stable basis. For example, it is not clear yet if a "one-fits-all" protocol stack will be deployed, or if such an approach is feasible at all. In contrast, several different protocols that each would suit the needs of its specific architecture/setup would need to be able to interoperate. This workshop seeks novel ideas in the form of preliminary or work-in-progress results as well as mature research papers for Delay-/Disruption Tolerant Networks. We also encourage position papers that address and criticize the past, current and future trends of DTN research and are intended to trigger discussions on the whole spectrum of DTNs. Topics include but are not limited to: - DTN Routing - Congestion and Storage Congestion Control - Resource Sharing in DTN environments - Network Coding techniques for DTNs - Application Development - DTN Management Platforms - Error and Flow Control - Experiences and Measurements from DTN testbeds - Privacy and Security of Information in DTNs - DTN Simulators and related tools - Performance Evaluation and Metrics for DTN Research - Performance and Design Tradeoffs for DTN Algorithms and Protocols - Social Networking through DTNs - Satellite Constellations and DTNs - Naming/Addressing and interoperability issues with the Internet architecture - DTN Architectures: -- Satellite Communications -- Deep-space Communications -- Underwater Communications -- Connectivity in Developing Countries -- Communication in Public and Private Transport Vehicles NEW IMPORTANT DATES: Paper-submission Deadline: July 6, 2009 Acceptance Notification: July 31, 2009 SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: Submitted papers must be original in content, not published or submitted to another workshop, conference or journal. Page-limits are as follows: Position Papers: 2 pages, Work-in-Progress Papers: 4 pages and Full Papers: 6 pages.

Call for Papers The Second IEEE International Workshop on Vehicular Networking (VON-09) (http://nrl.iis.sinica.edu.tw/VON09/) In Conjunction With IEEE APSCC 2009, December 7th-11th, 2009 Biopolis, Singapore ================================================================== Aims and Scope The goal of this workshop is to present and discuss recent advances in the development of wireless vehicular networking technologies. Based on short- to medium-range communication systems (vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-roadside), vehicular networks will enable vehicular safety applications including collision and other safety warnings as well as non-safety applications like real-time traffic congestion and routing information, high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, and many others. The creation of high-performance, highly reliable, highly scalable, and secure vehicular networks technologies, though, presents an extraordinary challenge to the wireless research community: a high degree of communication reliability is needed under unfavorable channel conditions. Clearly, the specificity of vehicular networks in terms of mobility behavior and applications scenarios and requirements makes vehicular networks research an exciting and demanding application- and purpose-driven sub-discipline of wireless networking. Topics of Interest Original papers addressing applications and architecture, systems and protocols design, development and analysis, in all areas related to Vehicular Networking are solicited. Papers that bring out interesting and novel ideas at an early stage are favored over highly-polish journal-style results. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Vehicular mobile ad-hoc networks - Routing protocols for V2V communications - MAC layer technologies - Physical layer and RF level technologies - Antenna technologies - Role of V2V communications in Intelligent Transportation Systems - Safety and non-safety applications - High-speed mobility management - Radio resource management and QoS support - Roadside-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-vehicle communication - Algorithms, protocols and systems for data dissemination - Channel modeling - Modulation and coding - Power control and scalability issues - Multi-channel organization and operation - Security issues and countermeasures - Privacy issues - Network management - Simulation frameworks & real-world testbeds Submissions and Proceedings Authors are invited to submit an electronic version of original, unpublished manuscripts via: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=von09. The manuscript should be written in English and follow IEEE two-column format with single-spaced, ten-point font in the text.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] Reminder: WPES 2009 - Call for Papers Datum: Thu, 11 Jun 2009 19:26:20 +0200 Von: Sara Foresti <sara.foresti(a)unimi.it> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] ****Call for Papers**** ##################################################################### 8th Workshop on Privacy in the Electronic Society (WPES 2009) November 9, 2009 --- Hyatt Regency, Chicago, IL, USA http://wpes09.unibg.it ##################################################################### The need for privacy-aware policies, regulations, and techniques has been widely recognized. This workshop discusses the problems of privacy in the global interconnected societies and possible solutions. The 2009 Workshop, held as all previous editions in conjunction with the ACM CCS conference, is the eighth in a yearly forum for papers on all the different aspects of privacy in today's electronic society. The workshop seeks submissions from academia, industry, and government presenting novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of electronic privacy, as well as experimental studies of fielded systems. We encourage submissions from other communities such as law and business that present these communities' perspectives on technological issues. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - anonymity, pseudonymity, and unlinkability - data correlation and leakage attacks - electronic communication privacy - economics of privacy - information dissemination control - personally identifiable information - privacy in health care and public administration - privacy and confidentiality management - privacy-aware access control - privacy in the digital business - privacy enhancing technologies - privacy policies - privacy and anonymity on the Web - privacy in the electronic records - privacy and human rights - privacy threats - privacy and virtual identity - privacy policy enforcement - privacy and data mining - privacy in outsourced scenarios - privacy vs. security - public records and personal privacy - user profiling - wireless privacy *Paper submissions* Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Regular submissions should be at most 10 pages in the ACM double-column format, excluding well-marked appendices, and at most 14 pages total. Committee members are not required to read the appendices, and so the paper should be intelligible without them. Submissions are not required to be anonymized. The workshop will also consider short submissions of up to 4 pages for results that are preliminary or that simply require few pages to describe. Authors of regular submitted papers will indicate at the time of submission whether they would like their paper to also be considered for publication as a short paper (4 proceedings pages). Submissions are to be made to the submission web site at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wpes09. Authors will be requested to upload the file of their paper (in PDF format only). Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits. Papers must be received by the deadline of June 19, 2009 to be considered. Notification of acceptance or rejection will be sent to authors by August 8, 2009. The camera ready must be prepared by August 25, 2009 (firm). Proceedings of the workshop will be published by ACM on a CD, available to the workshop attendees. Papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library, with a specific ISBN. Each accepted paper must be presented by an author, who will have registered by the early-bird registration deadline. *Important dates* Paper Submission due: June 19, 2009, 11:59pm PDT (Extended) Acceptance notification: August 8, 2009 Final papers due: August 25, 2009 (firm) Workshop: November 9, 2009 *Program Committee* Stefano Paraboschi (Universita' degli Studi di Bergamo, Italy), Chair Rafael Accorsi (University of Freiburg, Germany) Vijay Atluri (Rutgers University, USA) Adam Barth (UC Berkeley, USA) Nikita Borisov (UI Urbana-Champaign, USA) George Danezis (Microsoft Research Cambridge, UK) Sabrina De Capitani di Vimercati (Universita' degli Studi di Milano, Italy) Claudia Diaz (KU Leuven, Belgium) Roger Dingledine (The Tor Project, USA) Simone Fischer-Huebner (Karlstad University, Sweden) Keith Frikken (Miami University, USA) Philippe Golle (Palo Alto Research Center, USA) Stefan Katzenbeisser (Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany) Steven J.
