-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: ComCom Special Issue on Wireless Green Communications and Networking Datum: Tue, 31 May 2011 18:06:53 +0200 Von: Enzo Mingozzi <e.mingozzi(a)iet.unipi.it> Antwort an: e.mingozzi(a)iet.unipi.it Organisation: University of Pisa An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> Computer Communications (http://www.elsevier.com/locate/comcom) Call for Papers Special Issue on Wireless Green Communications and Networking Scope Global energy consumption is currently one of the major concerns faced by governments worldwide, because of its significant environmental footprint and the eventual exhaustion, in a not-so-far future, of the major traditional energy sources. A major role in the "greening" effort to globally reduce energy consumption will be played by wireless networking technologies. On the one hand, wireless communication infrastructures, like the ones managed by mobile network operators, are a major contributor to the ever-increasing energy consumption of the ICT industry, which calls for the adoption of energy-efficient solutions in their design and operation. Moreover, the recent explosive growth of smartphones market adoption and the consequent mobile internet traffic requirements, predicted to raise by a factor 39x until 2014, have prompted waves of research and standard development activities to meet the expected future demands in an energy-efficient manner. On the other hand, wireless networks will also be a major component of the communication infrastructure required by other "green" solutions for the efficient management of energy, since they enable practices like telecommuting (for, e.g., traffic reduction) and remote administration (for, e.g., the Smart Energy Grid), which are expected to significantly help reduce the environmental footprint of many human activities. The aim of this special issue is to seek new and unpublished contributions addressing wireless communications and networking as a major component in the design of green solutions in both ICT and non-ICT domains. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Energy-efficiency in mobile and wireless access networks - Energy-efficiency in vehicular networks - Energy-efficiency in wireless sensor networks - Energy-efficient wireless network management - Cross-layer optimization of green wireless networks - Performance evaluation and modeling of green wireless networks - Standardization related to wireless green communications and networking - Green wireless network planning and optimization - Wireless networking for the Smart Grid - Wireless networking for the Green Home - Wireless networking for energy-efficient buildings - Wireless networking for energy-efficient industrial automation - Wireless networking for green intelligent transportation systems - Wireless networking for green Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication Important dates Submission date: June 30, 2011 Author notification: October 15, 2011 Expected publication: 1st quarter 2012 Guest Editors Enzo Mingozzi University of Pisa, Italy e.mingozzi(a)iet.unipi.it Xavier Perez-Costa NEC Laboratories Europe, Heidelberg, Germany Xavier.Perez-Costa(a)neclab.eu Catherine Rosenberg University of Waterloo, Ontario, Canada cath(a)ece.uwaterloo.ca Shugong Xu Huawei Technologies, Co.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: 3rd ExtremeCom 2011 *** EXTENDED DEADLINE **** Datum: Mon, 30 May 2011 14:54:01 +0200 Von: Aline Carneiro Viana <aline.viana(a)inria.fr> An: tccc <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> [Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this Call for Paper (CFP).] ***************************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS AND DEMOS 3rd Extreme Conference on Communication - The Amazon Expedition EXTREMECOM 2011 http://extremecom.org/ ***************************************************************************** Important dates --------------- *******Submission deadline: extended to June 20, 2011******** Notification of acceptance: July 15, 2011 Conference dates: September 26-30, 2011 Field experience and network deployment: September 26-28 Technical sessions: September 29-30 ***************************************************************************** Scope ----- The Extreme Conference on Communication (ExtremeCom) brings together researchers and practitioners in areas related to communications in rural and remote environments, in order to gain experience and insight into the challenges that such environments pose for the network and the users. We welcome a broad range of topics concerning both technical and economical aspects, for example delay tolerant networks and other networking paradigms, business and services models, low power devices and protocols, user experiences and web applications. Following on from the success of ExtremeCom 2009 - The Midnight Sun Expedition in Laponia, Sweden, and ExtremeCom 2010 - The Himalayan Expedition in Dharamsala, India, we now offer ExtremeCom 2011 - The Amazon Expedition. In this edition, we aim to explore the challenges of the deep Amazon Rainforest in Brazil. The chosen spot, which is located 21 miles (34 km) from Manaus, is known as Praia do Tupé (Tupé beach), a beautiful and remote beach accessed only by boat through the waters of the Black River. The population is composed by natives living in little communities spread around the jungle and also on the river shore. These people experience constant communication interruptions and most of them do not have any access to the Internet, which makes this area a great field of experiments for extreme and rural communications. Hosted by the Federal University Of Amazonas (UFAM) the conference will start with 3 days of immersion into the jungle where the conference participants will aid in setting up and deploying an extension of a DTN system in this area in order to provide connectivity to a new community. During this time the participants will have the chance to hike around the trails, interact with the locals and also know some natural phenomenons like the "meeting of the waters", where the black waters of the Negro River meet the brown waters of the Solimões River, flowing side by side without mixing for about 9 km. The immersion will not only give a better idea of both the technical and user requirements of such a system, but it will also give many opportunities for informal research discussions between the participants. Participants that have their own software for scenarios like this will also, to as great an extent as possible, be encouraged to test and demonstrate it within this environment. Upon reaching the end of the "field experience", there will be two days of paper presentations and demos in a more traditional conference venue at UFAM's facilities in Manaus. Focus will still be on informal research discussions, with the hope that the field experience will give participants the ability to discuss the topics in a new light. Participants should submit 6 page papers about ideas and visions about the topics of the conference or demo proposals to be shown during the conference. Visionary and thought-provoking papers that are likely to generate much discussion during the conference are especially solicited. The aim of the conference is to maintain an informal environment, where new research ideas can be discussed and developed. We also hope to have a demo session where participants can show their implementations and systems. If you want to show a demo, please submit a 2 page demo proposal using the same submission system as for conference papers. Accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library. Topics for the conference include, but are not limited to: * Testbeds for large-scale sustainable testing of DTN systems * Real deployments of networks in extreme environments * Business and service models for networks in rural, remote, and other challenging environments * User experience research * Delay tolerant networking * Low-power and intermittent-power protocols * Mechanisms for emergency and urgent communications * Networked applications and services Due to logistics and the need to conduct the conference in harmony with the local population and the environment, the number of participants will be limited. Priority will be given to authors of papers and those who register first. ***************************************************************************** Organizers ---------- General co-chairs: Anders Lindgren, Swedish Institute of Computer Science, Sweden Pan Hui, Deutsche Telekom Laboratories and TU Berlin, Germany Local arrangement committee: Edjair Mota, UFAM, Brazil JB Pinto Neto, UFAM, Brazil Alfredo Goldman, University of Sao Paolo, Brazil Aline Carneiro Viana, INRIA, France Publicity chair: Aline Carneiro Viana, INRIA, France Sponsorship chair: Christian Hoene, University of Tübingen, Germany.

Submissions will be peer-reviewed. The proceedings will be archived in the ACM Digital Library. *** New this year: Demo session! *** The World is increasingly experiencing a strong need for energy consumption reduction and a need for efficient use of scarce natural resources. Official studies report that buildings account for the largest portion of World's energy expenditure and have the fastest growth rate. Clearly, energy saving strategies that target energy use in buildings and surroundings can have a major impact worldwide, driving the current energy market toward self-sufficiency and self-sustainability. This calls for effective techniques and methods that enable accurate carbon foot printing, monitoring and control of appliance activity, energy auditing and management in buildings and surroundings and the generation of energy awareness. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) play a key role in enabling energy-saving systems in buildings and surrounding spaces by providing a reliable, cost-effective and extensible solution that can be placed in existing as well as new structures and can be controlled via the Internet. In fact, WSNs allow the monitoring of the energy consumption in near-real time and, as such, they are an essential tool in the control loop that will be used in future structures for the generation and usage of diverse types of energy. We solicit both papers AND demos that focus on new techniques and technologies capable of improving the global energy efficiency of buildings leveraging connected sensing systems, networks, and devices. We are particularly interested in contributions related to: * Increase energy awareness and reduce consumption by leveraging on sensing systems/social networking/mobile phones, novel visualization and other forms of media to convey relevant information to users; * Systems that can influence building occupant behaviour towards a more parsimonious usage of electricity, gas, heating, water, etc.; * Monitor and actuate appliances in residential and industrial settings (e.g. data centres, HVAC, etc.) * Monitor and control of alternative energy sources aiming at an increase of production efficacy; * Model and simulate heating, cooling, lighting, ventilation, water usage and other energy flows in buildings and surrounding spaces through the combination of real data from sensors and popular energy simulation tools such as Energy Plus and TrnSys; * Create innovative tools to model and visualize energy expenditure and production (from, e.g., solar panels, wind turbines); * Integrate sensor-based systems to improve grid operation and energy distribution (electricity, gas, water); * Sensor systems for the identification of appliances in industrial and home environments, which can be used to estimate the energy usage/production model and to predict future demands; Successful papers will clearly demonstrate how much energy is reduced by the authors' contribution, either through real-world results or credible simulation and analysis of an energy problem. Papers should consider the entire energy system, including any effects on occupant behaviors, production efficiency, peak load and smart grid architectures, sustainability, pollutants, and total energy usage. Demo abstracts should describe both the technology being showcased as well as the user experience of the demo. Submissions must include a separate section for the demo script that specifically describes how users will interact with the demo. Accepted papers and demo abstracts will appear in the workshop proceedings and will be electronically published by ACM. For submission instructions please refer to the workshop website.
