New research challenges have emerged. Much research remains to be done to bring to fruition the vision of future intelligent vehicular communications applications, which will be supported by vehicular networks. Suitable consumer technologies will be needed to enable drivers to exploit the advantages of next-generation intelligent transport systems. Even as the networks and applications are still in the R&D phase, the consumer communications aspects of vehicular communications are growing in importance too. Ultimately it will be the consumers (namely, the car drivers and passengers) that will determine the success and acceptance of vehicular communications systems. This workshop serves as a leading forum to bring together the researchers and engineers in both academia and industry to exchange ideas, share experiences, and report original work about all aspects of car consumer telematics, communications, networking, security and services. The main purpose is to promote discussions of research and relevant activities in the design of architectures, algorithms, and applications for intelligent vehicular communication environments.

[Please accept our apologies if you received multiple copies of this call] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IOTS 2010 The 1st IEEE/ACM Internet of Things Symposium http://www.cpschina.org/IOTS/ In conjunction with GreenCom 2010 Hangzhou, China, December 18-20, 2010 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.Overview The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of Internet-enabled objects, together with web services that interact with these objects. IoT is growing momentum in terms of the underlying technology as well as the adoption by corporations, universities and across many industries. IoT aims at increasing the ubiquity of the Internet by integrating every object for interaction via embedded systems, which leads to the highly distributed network of devices communicating with human beings as well as other devices. The widespread adoption of the Internet of Things will take time, but the process is accelerating thanks to improvements in underlying technologies. Advances in wireless networking technologies and the standardization of communication protocols make it possible to collect data from sensors almost anywhere at any time. Smaller silicon chips for this purpose are gaining new capabilities. Significant increase in storage and computing power can also be available via cloud computing. However, a large number of challenges remain. With the increase in heterogeneity, it has become very difficult to ensure interactions with devices on a unified protocol. The requirements of Internet for intelligent interaction with the environment led to the emergence of wireless sensor networks connected to the Internet. There exists a need for those networks to produce their information in an interpretable form and to reduce the complexity of accessing sensor services. 2.Symposium Outline The focus of this symposium is on bringing together relevant researchers to explore internet of things technologies and applications. The scope of this symposium includes, but not limited to, the following areas: - IoT connecting objects technologies: sensors, RFID, smartphone - IoT network architectures - IoT emerging applications - IoT security and privacy - IoT routing - IoT naming and addressing - IoT energy-efficient computing and communications - IoT data fusion - IoT cross-layer optimization - IoT communication protocols - IoT heterogeneous network integration: WiFi, WiMax, 3G, 4G, ZigBee 3.Important Dates (NEW!)

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. You are invited to present your current work in the area of global sensing, to discuss and identify main challenges, and to foster new cooperation in the field.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: HotMobile 2011 - Preliminary Call for Papers Datum: Tue, 24 Aug 2010 15:08:32 +0000 Von: Iqbal Mohomed <iqbal(a)MICROSOFT.COM> Antwort an: Iqbal Mohomed <iqbal(a)MICROSOFT.COM> An: SIGMOBILE-MEMBERS(a)LISTSERV.ACM.ORG **We apologize if you receive more than one copy of this announcement** HotMobile 2011 The Twelfth Workshop on Mobile Computing, Systems, and Applications Phoenix, AZ, USA March 1-2, 2011 http://www.hotmobile.org/2011/ Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE Preliminary Call for Papers ACM HotMobile 2011, the twelfth Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications continues the series of highly selective, interactive workshops focused on mobile applications, systems, and environments, as well as their underlying state-of-the-art technologies. HotMobile's small workshop format makes it ideal for presenting and discussing new directions or controversial approaches. We solicit submissions of position papers that focus primarily on applications and systems and that propose new directions of research, advocate non-traditional approaches to old (or new) ideas, or generate controversy and discussion. We particularly look for position papers containing highly original ideas in the following topic areas, although papers describing other challenges unique to or exacerbated by mobility are also welcome: * Operating system and distributed system support for mobile computing * Coordination, aggregation, and spontaneous interaction of mobile devices * Novel applications, environments, and devices supporting mobility * HCI issues related to mobile computing * Security and privacy of mobile computing * Management, configuration, and deployment of systems supporting mobility Submissions describing new lower-level technologies are welcome if they focus on how the technology is being used or integrated into a system or application. HotMobile 2011 will be a highly interactive workshop. Submissions will be judged based upon originality, technical merit, topical relevance, and likelihood of leading to insightful discussion at the workshop. Presentation at HotMobile is a good way to get early feedback on research ideas that are a year or more from submission as a full conference paper to the ACM MobiSys conference or other high-quality conferences. Submitting a full-length paper on the same topic to MobiSys in less than a year is unlikely to involve a sufficient increment of work and maturity of ideas. To encourage an atmosphere conducive to participation, attendance will be limited to 70 participants. Authors of submitted papers and accepted demo proposals will be given first priority, with others able to register on a space-available basis. Important Dates Paper submission due: October 15, 2010 Acceptance notification: December 16, 2010 Revised papers due: January 21, 2011 Paper submissions are due by 23:59 PDT on Friday October 15, 2010. Paper Submission Instructions Paper submissions are due on Oct 15th 2010 at 23:59:59 PDT (Pacific Daylight Time). Submissions should contain 6 or fewer U.S. letter pages in PDF format, including all references, figures and tables. Papers should use the standard ACM template, available at: http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates The workshop proceedings will be published by the ACM. As is customary, papers must not have been published elsewhere and may not be simultaneously under submission at another venue. Papers accompanied by nondisclosure agreement forms are not acceptable and will be returned to the author(s) unread. As customary with the scientific peer review process, submissions will be handled as confidential material during the review. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To be removed from future issues of the SIGMOBILE-MEMBERS, please enter your email address wolf(a)IBR.CS.TU-BS.DE at http://optout.acm.org/listserv_index.cfm?ln=sigmobile-members and we'll remove you.
