-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [KuVS ELG] CfP: SUBICO 2011 Workshop bei GI-Jahrestagung in Berlin (Deadline 24.04.2011) Datum: Thu, 31 Mar 2011 10:45:52 +0200 Von: Kurt Geihs <geihs(a)uni-kassel.de> An: ELG KUVS <elg(a)kuvs.de> Aufruf zur Einreichung von Beiträgen ==================================== Sozio-technisches Systemdesign im Zeitalter des Ubiquitous Computing (SUBICO 2011) Workshop im Rahmen der INFORMATIK 2011 – Informatik schafft Communities 41. Jahrestagung der Gesellschaft für Informatik 4.10. – 7.10.2011 TU Berlin http://goto.uni-kassel.de/subico2011 Zielsetzung Die persönliche Lebensgestaltung ist heute von IT-Anwendungen durchdrungen. Das Internet gehört bereits zum Alltag vieler Menschen; das mobile Internet bietet uns schon heute an praktisch jedem Ort Zugang zu Informationen und Diensten. Diese allgegenwärtige technische Vernetzung hat das Wesen unserer sozialen Netze bereits stark beeinflusst und wird sie auch in Zukunft um neue Formen der Kommunikation und Interaktion bereichern. Mit den Möglichkeiten der ubiquitären Informationsverarbeitung (Ubiquitous Computing) rücken zudem Anwendungen und Dienste in den Vordergrund, bei denen die zur Erbringung notwendigen Computer immer stärker mit unserer alltäglichen Lebensumgebung verschmelzen und höchstens noch peripher wahrgenommen werden. Damit entsteht eine neue Art der vernetzten Interaktion und Informationsverarbeitung, die sowohl in technischer als auch sozialer Hinsicht gestaltet werden muss, um rechtskonforme und sozialverträgliche Anwendungen zu erhalten. Die sozialverträgliche Gestaltung von Systemen benötigt interdiszplinäre, den Funktionen des Ubiquitous Computing und den Zielsetzungen der Gestaltung angepasste Entwicklungsmethoden. Der Workshop richtet sich aufgrund der interdisziplinären Problemstellung an Forscher, Entwickler und Führungskräfte aus unterschiedlichen Disziplinen (Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, HCI; Recht, usw.), die sich mit der Gestaltung von zukünftigen, ubiquitären IT-Systemen beschäftigen. Der Workshop soll zur Vernetzung der Disziplinen beitragen, eine Basis für gemeinsame Methoden und Werkzeuge liefern und ein Diskussionsforum für sozialverträgliche IT-Gestaltung bieten. Mögliche Themen Die interdisziplinäre Ausrichtung des Workshops beinhaltet ein breites Themenspektrum. Basistechniken des Ubiquitous Computing bilden die Grundlage für zukunftsfähige Anwendungen. Dazu gehören Kontextsensitivität, Situationserkennung und Adaptivität, die es Anwendungen ermöglichen, auf Veränderungen in der Umwelt und der Benutzerpräferenzen zu reagieren und sich geeignet an unterschiedliche Situationen zu adaptieren. Durch die vielfältige Sensorik, mit der benutzerspezifische Daten erfasst werden, haben ubiquitäre Systeme einen großen Einfluss auf das soziale Gefüge. Eine sozialverträgliche IT-Gestaltung ist hier unabdingbar. Dabei ist neben den eingesetzten neuartigen Interaktionskonzepten und Benutzerschnittstellen vor allem die Berücksichtigung der Akzeptanz ubiquitärer Anwendungen zu nennen. Diese kann zum Beispiel durch eine Erhöhung des Vertrauens in die Anwendung realisiert werden. Eine weitere Möglichkeit ist die konsequente Berücksichtigung rechtlicher Anforderungen in der Systementwicklung. Bei der sozialverträglichen Gestaltung ubiquitärer Systeme müssen vorher genannte Aspekte im Entwicklungsprozess Berücksichtigung finden. Dazu bedarf es passender Methoden und Techniken. Zusätzlich verlangt die Entwicklung ubiquitärer Systeme nach Werkzeugen, die eine effektive Umsetzung von neuen Anwendungsideen ermöglichen. Es werden Beiträge erbeten, die vor allem, aber nicht ausschließlich, folgende Themen ansprechen: - Basistechniken des Ubiquitous Computing * Kontextsensitivität als Grundlage ubiquitärer Anwendungen * Adaptivität mobiler und ubiquitärer Anwendungen * Wissensentdeckung - Sozialverträgliche IT-Gestaltung * Interaktionskonzepte und Benutzerschnittstellen * Akzeptanz und Vertrauen in neue IT-Systeme * Rechtliche Anforderungen in der Systementwicklung * gesellschaftliche Auswirkungen ubiquitärer Systeme - Entwicklungsmethoden für ubiquitäre Systeme - Werkzeuge zur Gestaltung ubiquitärer Systeme - Anwendungsbeispiele Wichtige Termine 24.

WIRELESS HEALTH 2011 Final Call for Papers & First Call for Demos October 10-13, 2011 San Diego, California Hosted by the Wireless-Life Sciences Alliance In cooperation with ACM SIGMOBILE, AIMBE, BMES, and the UCSD Institute of Engineering in Medicine www.wirelesshealth2011.org The Wireless Health annual conference series convenes the vanguard international research communities in Wireless Health technology and medical research with the rapidly expanding Wireless Health product and service industry, government leadership and policy makers. This conference provides the highest profile academic and industrial research forum for the new field of Wireless Health. The mission of the Wireless Health conference is to include and promote an international community that will accelerate the development and adoption of this new vision for healthcare. Central to this objective is to create a nurturing research forum that communicates the latest developments in the field, creates an opportunity for cross fertilization, and provides an archival venue for the progress being achieved. This second in the series of the Wireless Health conference seeks to build upon the success of Wireless Health 2010, which included more than 400 attendees from academia, industry, government, and press. Wireless Health 2010 included an outstanding set of peer-reviewed papers, interactive workshops, industrial and academic application demonstrations, topical panel discussions, and world renowned invited speakers. PAPER SUBMISSION Abstracts Due: April 15, 2011 Papers Due: April 22, 2011 Acceptance Notification: July 1, 2011 The organizing committee invites submission of papers for peer review that have the potential for substantive impact on the field of Wireless Health, including papers with highly innovative engineering solutions for Wireless Health and papers with a focus on applications of Wireless Health in clinical settings.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] PWSN 2011 - Deadline Extended to April 11, 2011 Datum: Tue, 29 Mar 2011 13:09:56 +0300 Von: Vasos Vassiliou <vasosv(a)cs.ucy.ac.cy> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu *** Paper Submission Deadline Extended to: Monday, 11 April 2011 *** ========================================================================= CALL FOR PAPERS PWSN 2011 3rd International Workshop on Performance Control in Wireless Sensor Networks http://www.netrl.cs.ucy.ac.cy/pwsn2011/ June 29 2011, Casa Convalescència, Barcelona, Spain In conjunction with the 7th IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (DCOSS '11) ========================================================================= Important dates: ---------------- ** Extended Paper Submission deadline: April 11, 2011 ** Acceptance Notification: May 15, 2011 Camera Ready Paper: May 30, 2011 Workshop date: June 29, 2011 Wireless sensor networks are currently the subject of intense research and many prototype installations are currently investigated. However, most of the existing sensor network installations have in common that they are not considered time critical. No immediate action has to be undertaken as a response to the received data. In contrast, many envisioned future application areas of wireless sensor networks (such as plant automation and control, traffic management, medical applications, emergency solutions) require immediate and guaranteed actions. In such environments, data has to be transported reliably and in time through the sensor network towards the end user. To make the networking task more complex, in many applications the end user or the controlling intelligence is located remotely (e.g., remote monitoring, supervision and surveillance applications), and the wireless sensor network interworks with other networks (e.g., fixed infrastructure cellular, Internet). Due to the lack of appropriate models, components and protocols, it is currently very difficult to construct and operate a wireless sensor network with performance guarantees. Thus, the commercial success of wireless sensor networks in many application areas is unsure unless this particular problem is understood and solved. The PWSN workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners working on performance issues within wireless sensor networks. The workshop intends to examine research challenges associated with achieving dependability in WSNs, share experiences from real-life deployment of dependable sensor networks, discuss application-dependent wireless sensor-actuator design methodologies, illustrate dependable MAC, network and transport protocols, and in general, explore issues of reliability in WSNs. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: -------------------------------------------------- * Architectures: real-time systems, critical network architectures * Applications: Critical applications, application requirements, novel applications and real-world deployments * Models: Traffic models, channel models, mathematical models of network performance * MAC protocols: MAC protocols with deterministic behavior, MAC protocols to balance forwarding performance and energy consumption. * Routing and topology control: Methods to control network topology, services for time, location, and power management, topology robustness, reliability and fault tolerance * Data transport: Control of data transport delay and reliability, methods to improve data forwarding performance in sensor networks, data storage, retrieval, and processing. * Operating systems: Performance optimization and control of sensor network operating systems. * Middleware: Middleware/frameworks providing performance guarantees for Sensor network applications. * Security: System security and data integrity methods, Impact of security features on network performance.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: IEEE JSAC Special Issue on Broadband Wireless Communications for High Speed Vehicles Datum: Tue, 29 Mar 2011 11:40:55 +0800 Von: Zhou Yi Qing <yqzhou(a)eee.hku.hk> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu Apologies if you receive multiple copies. A submission system has been set up in EDAS. The acronym of this issue is BWCHST. ********************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications Broadband Wireless Communications for High Speed Vehicles (BWCHST) With the development of mobile communication systems such as long term evolution (LTE), WiMax and International Mobile Telecommunications (IMT)-Advanced, broadband wireless multimedia services will be prevalent in the near future. Meanwhile, high speed vehicles such as airplanes and high speed trains play an increasingly important role in people’s lives, since they provide a relatively stable and spacious environment for long distance travel. As a result, there will be a strong demand for broadband wireless communications (BWC) for high speed vehicles to provide information and onboard entertainment services to passengers. BWC is also needed in vehicle control systems for operational information such as fault sensor measurements and diagnostics, video surveillance, and so on. Interesting research areas and various challenges arise when designing BWC systems for high speed vehicles. For example, a new network structure is needed since a direct transmission signal between the passenger and infrastructure-base-station experiences serious deterioration when traveling through the speeding vehicle. Distributed antenna and radio over fiber can be employed for vehicle-to-infrastructure communication. Moreover, due to the lack of accurate channel information, innovative radio resource allocation schemes are also needed at the infrastructure-base-station to assign resources to high speed vehicles. The fast movement of high speed vehicles through cellular networks causes frequent handovers and drop-offs, degrading the user experience. This prompts the need for designing fast and reliable handover and random access schemes. In addition, novel physical layer techniques of BWC in high speed mobile environments need to be considered. In particular, there is a strong need to evaluate the effect of Doppler spread and revisit the noncoherent coding, modulation and MIMO schemes. Therefore, BWC for high speed vehicles is a pressing research topic that has huge applications. It is imperative to develop the key techniques enabling BWC for high speed vehicles. The goal of this issue is to bring together the most updated research contributions in this area. We are soliciting high quality, original and unpublished work in BWC for high speed vehicles, especially those pushing the envelope in terms of vehicle speed and communication bandwidth. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Novel network architecture * Satellite communications * Drive-through Internet * Distributed antenna systems and radio over fiber for vehicle-to-infrastructure communications * High speed vehicle-to-vehicle communication * BWC for high speed vehicle control systems * Radio resource allocation to high speed vehicles * Fast and reliable handover and random access schemes * Wireless channel modeling and estimation * Effects of Doppler spread * Modulation schemes for high speed vehicles * Antenna array and MIMO * Prototype and field tests Prospective authors should prepare their manuscripts following the IEEE J-SAC format described at http://www.jsac.ucsd.edu/Guidelines/info.html. Authors should submit a PDF version of their complete manuscript to http://www.edas.info. The submission system is avaialbe now and the acronym of this issue is BWCHST. The timetable is as follows: Manuscript Submission Due: May 1, 2011 First Reviews Due: August 1, 2011 Second Reviews Due and Acceptance Notification: November 1, 2011 Final Manuscript Due: January 1, 2012 Publication: 2nd quarter 2012 Guest Editors: Prof. Yiqing Zhou, Advanced Wireless Center, ICT/CAS, China (zhouyiqing(a)ict.ac.cn) Prof. Fumiyuki Adachi, Tohoku University, Japan (adachi(a)ecei.tohoku.ac.jp) Prof. Xiaodong Wang, Columbia University, USA (wangx(a)ee.columbia.edu ) Prof. Athanassios Manikas, Imperial College, United Kingdom, (a.manikas(a)imperial.ac.uk) Prof. Xi Zhang, Texas A&M University, USA (xizhang(a)ece.tamu.edu) Prof. Wei-Ping Zhu, Concordia University, Canada (weiping(a)ece.concordia.ca) _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Datum: Mon, 28 Mar 2011 18:08:58 +0200 Von: Jong-Hyouk Lee <jonghyouk(a)gmail.com> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. Special Issue on "Security in Cooperative Vehicular Networks", Security and Communication Networks (Wiley Online Library, ISSN: 1939-0114, SCIE indexed journal): http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/sec.292/pdf Recent technologies of wireless cooperative vehicular networks supporting Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communications have become a cornerstone of Intelligent Transport Systems that will bring the promise of improved road safety and comfortable/infotainment driving environments with IEEE 802.11p.Wireless cooperative vehicular networking is one of the most interesting and active research topics, which is requiring vital efforts from both the industry and the academia. In particular, studies on secure broadcasting and routing for V2V and V2I communications, authenticating messages and vehicles, authorizing users to services, and location privacy of users have posed various challenges. These challenges require to develop applicable authentication approaches for messages and vehicles and authorization approaches for users as well as improved anonymous mechanisms for preventing the exposure of identity and location. Especially, IPv6 enabled V2V and V2I communications are requiring network level security mechanisms including secure binding between the permanent and temporary addresses of vehicles key distribution and location privacy with regard to IPv6 tunnel management, securing end-to-end communication, authentication in the IPv6 access network, etc. This special issue is intended to disseminate the latest research results in emergent security issues, by providing a fresh snapshot of the current state-of-the-art in wireless cooperative vehicular networking. Especially, this special issue will not only focus on security mechanisms for IEEE 802.11p based V2V and V2I communications, but also address security mechanisms for IPv6 enabled V2V and V2I communications. Accordingly, this special issue will bring together the industry and academia working on security issues related to wireless cooperative vehicular networking and highlight future directions.
