In particular, geosensor networks and public sensing have evolved as novel and important research fields. They offer applications easy and efficient access to sensor data at the scale of billions of sensing devices. This data is of high relevance to a wide spectrum of applications, for instance in the field of environmental monitoring, traffic control, and smart energy grids. It is of high importance that communication architectures and services for enabling such systems are highly scalable and able to cope with massive amounts of sensor data in order to meet the requirements of emerging applications. These requirements range from hard performance and quality demands to ensuring security and privacy for the provided data. They are particularly difficult to meet in the face of the heterogeneity of sensors, sensor networks, and communication architectures. Coping with these challenges requires an integrated research effort involving researchers from a wide spectrum of different research fields. This workshop aims at bringing researchers and practitioners together that are working in areas such as sensor networks, architectures and services for the Future Internet, P2P overlays, complex event and stream processing, pervasive computing, and novel communication paradigms like opportunistic and delay tolerant networking.

All the other dates remain the same. Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this cfp. ************************************************************************************* Call for Papers Elsevier Journal of Pervasive and Mobile Computing - Special Issue on "Vehicular Sensor Networks and Mobile Sensing over Wide-Scale Deployment Environments" www.elsevier.com/locate/pmc Paper submission deadline: November 15, 2010 ************************************************************************************** The development of Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) based Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) is one of the most interesting and active research area nowadays, which is attracting significant efforts from both the industry and the academia, not only from the automotive and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs) communities, but also from the fields of wireless and mobile sensor networks, smart environments, and mobile collaborative applications in general. In this context, many national and international collaboration projects currently ongoing practically demonstrate the relevant government, industry, and academia interest in the field. In particular, Vehicular Sensor Networks (VSNs) are becoming increasingly interesting and popular due to recent advances in inter-vehicular communication technologies and decreasing cost of communication devices. Differently from traditional wireless sensor nodes, vehicles are not typically affected by energy constraints and can easily be equipped with powerful processing units, wireless communication devices, GPS, and sensing devices such as chemical detectors, still/video cameras, vibration and acoustic sensors. Thus, they enable brand new and promising sensing applications, such as traffic reporting, relief to environmental monitoring, distributed surveillance, only to mention a few promising (and not the most visionary) service provisioning scenarios. The design, implementation, and deployment of dynamic, opportunistic, collaborative, scalable, efficient, reliable, robust, and secured mobile sensing applications for VSNs, especially over realistic and large-scale deployment environments such as municipalities, presents extraordinary challenges to the pervasive and mobile computing research community. This special issue intends to disseminate the latest research results in this emergent research area, by providing a fresh snapshot of the current state-of-the-art in VANETs, VSNs, and mobile sensing. To this purpose, we are seeking high-quality papers reporting original research results and practical experiences of system design/prototyping/deployment related to topics that include, but are not limited to: - Original algorithms and protocols for VSN mobile sensing - Original middleware and platforms for the support of VSN applications - Case studies of mobile sensing applications over wide-scale urban environments - Vehicular network architectures and protocols for mobile sensing - Intra-vehicular sensor network and integration with (possibly legacy) embedded systems - Efficient integration with wide-area networks and with municipal mesh networks - Routing, addressing, and transport-layer issues for mobile sensing - Efficient QoS support for quality-sensitive mobile sensing applications - Delay-tolerant and real-time supports for VSN mobile sensing - Data dissemination solutions for VSN mobile sensing applications - Performance, scalability, reliability, and efficiency of VSN supports and applications - Safety, enhanced navigation, and car alert supports/services - Vehicular collision avoidance using distributed sensing technologies - Human-machine interface for VSN mobile sensing applications - Mobility models and vehicle traffic models - Simulation aspects of V2V, V2I, and VSNs - Emulation and testbeds for large-scale VSNs - Practical experience with standards (802.11p, CALM, P1609, ), standard development and evolution - Security, encryption, and privacy for VSNs Submission process: Authors should prepare and submit manuscripts according to the Guide for Authors as published in the Journal Web site at http://www.ees.elsevier.com/pmc/. Manuscripts must not have been previously published or currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. If a similar version of the paper has been published in a conference, the submitted version should contain significant additions/enhancements; in that case, authors are requested to submit their published conference articles and a summary document explaining the enhancements made in the journal version.

Fwd: [Tccc] CFP IEEE INFOCOM 2011 Workshop on Green Communications and Networking

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP IEEE INFOCOM 2011 Workshop on Green Communications and Networking Datum: Tue, 26 Oct 2010 22:48:47 -0400 Von: Richard Yu <Richard_Yu(a)Carleton.ca> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu IEEE INFOCOM 2011 Workshop on Green Communications and Networking April 10-15, 2011 Shanghai, China http://www.csit.carleton.ca/~fyu/GCN11/ Scope: As concerns about climate change, rising fossil fuel prices and energy security increase, companies and governments around the world are committing great efforts to develop new technologies for the green strategies addressing climate change globally and facilitating low greenhouse gas (GHG) development. Currently, the GHG emissions produced by the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) industry alone are said to be equivalent to the GHG emissions of the entire aviation industry. It is estimated that one small computer server generates as much GHG as a sport utility vehicle (SUV). Furthermore, with the increasing demand for higher data rates, the energy consumption for the ICT industry is increasing by 16-20% per year, and the energy costs for mobile network operators can already be as high as half of their annual operating budgets. Since the GHG footprint of the ICT sector is dominated by electricity consumption, an obvious way to reduce emissions is to focus on efficient energy consumption and use as much electricity from renewable sources as possible. In addition, the role of green communications and networking technologies includes not only the emission reduction and energy savings in products and services, but also enabling low GHG emissions in other industries, such as electric power. Indeed, networks are crucial technologies for a smart power grid, which monitors, protects and optimizes the operation of its interconnected elements from end to end, with two-way flow of electricity and information to create an automated and distributed energy delivery network. This Workshop on "Green Communications and Networking" provides a forum for discussions of all these most recent developments and brings together industry and academia, engineers and researchers. The Workshop is in conjunction with IEEE Infocom'2011 conference (http://www.ieee-infocom.org/) Topics: The workshop is organised along two tracks, which address all issues related to energy efficiency in networking, including, but not limited to, the following: Track 1 - Green Wired Communications and Networking + Energy consumption measurements, estimates, models, and monitoring tools + Protocols and techniques to reduce energy consumption in fixed networks and in data centres + Protocols and techniques for energy-efficient service provisioning and content distribution + Wired networks for smart grids + Energy Efficient Ethernet + Models of energy-efficient networks and energy-efficient network design + Energy-efficient networking experiments and trials + Test-bed and prototype implementations + Policies and incentives to stimulate energy efficiency in networking + Networking approaches for energy efficiency of applications Track 2 - Green Wireless Communications and Networking + Energy efficiency and GHG emission metrics and measurements in wireless communications and networks + Wireless networks for smart grids + Regulation and standardization + Energy efficient hardware, devices and designs + QoS provisioning and resource management in green wireless networks + MAC, routing and transport protocols for green wireless networks + Cross-layer optimization of green wireless networks + End-to-end modeling and performance of green wireless networks + Green 3G/4G/5G, wireless wide area infrastructures, short range networks, mesh topologies + Experimental test-beds and results Contribution format: The authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing original, previously unpublished, complete research, not currently under review by another conference or journal, addressing state-of-the-art research and development. All submissions should be written in English with a maximum paper length of six (6) printed pages (10-point font) including figures. Submissions longer than 6 pages will not be considered.
