-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] [8 days left] EWSDN 2012 Datum: Tue, 12 Jun 2012 14:28:54 +0200 Von: Stefano Salsano <stefano.salsano(a)uniroma2.it> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu 8 days left to submission deadline: European Workshop on Software Defined Networks (EWSDN-2012) http://ewsdn.eu The European Workshop on Software Defined Networks will be held on October 25-26, 2012 in Deutsche Telekom Campus, Darmstadt, Germany (15 minutes from Frankfurt Airport) *SDN* Software Defined Networking (SDN) is emerging as a promising architectural solution to support and foster innovation in telecommunication networks. Several switch/router vendors are “opening” their hardware, offering APIs to allow a “software defined” control of the networking operations. The vitality of the SDN approach is witnessed by the release of several SDN tools and development environments, most of which are open sourced. *OpenFlow* The OpenFlow specifications, now standardized by the Open Networking Foundation, can represent a key component in a SDN architecture, but the SDN scope and concept is much wider than the OpenFlow APIs. In particular there is the need of higher level SDN abstractions and higher level SDN APIs, as the ones that should be offered to applications (e.g. SDN “north-bound” interfaces). *European* What makes an SDN workshop “European”? Traditional strengths of European research and development have been in optical transmission and wireless, especially cellular networks. The workshop emphasizes aspects of Software Defined Networks that come up when extending SDN 'beyond Ethernet'. In this regard, “European” does not mean that we restrict to a geographic scope, we welcome contribution and participation from all over the world. *Motivation* One goal of the workshop is to bring together industry and academia on the topics of SDN, in particular the workshop will feature an “industry forum”, i.e. a session with presentations of key industrial players (manufacturers, telecom operators, ...). A special session will include presentation and discussion of the highest ranked proposals to the 2nd open call of the OFELIA project (http://www.fp7-ofelia.eu/open-calls/2nd-open-call/). *Contributions to the workshop* We are interested in both papers showing consolidated results and in position papers bringing up innovative ideas. We welcome contributions including, but not limited to, the following topics: - Optical extensions to OpenFlow, SDN - Wireless integration, characterization of wireless interfaces, flows, handover support - Evolved packet core, LTE support for OpenFlow - New controller architectures, Application Programmer's Interfaces, SDN “north-bound” interfaces - Higher level SDN abstractions, APIs, object models - New networking paradigms like Content or Information Centric Networks (CCN/ICN) and their relation with SDN - Carrier-grade SDN architectures and equipment - Network Virtualization techniques based on SDN - Practical experiments on OpenFlow / SDN based testbeds - Identification of use cases for SDN, SDN related business models - SDN frameworks and tools, SDN based equipment: controllers, switches, integrated development environment, testing and debugging environment *Workshop Proceedings* The EWSDN Workshop proceedings will be published in IEEE Xplore. *Important dates* Deadline for Call for Papers (up to 6 pages, double column 10pt font): June 20th, 2012 Acceptance notification: July 31st, 2012 Camera ready: September 5th, 2012 *Paper submission* EWSDN submission will be managed using the EasyChair submission system: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ewsdn12 *Workshop registration and hotel rooms* The registration cost for the two-day workshop is 200 € for early-birds (4 weeks prior to the conference), 230 € regular registration, including - electronic proceedings (published on IEEE Xplore) - one dinner, two lunches, coffee breaks Registration opens June 20th, 2012. Hotel rooms at Commundo Tagungshotel Darmstadt are available for workshop participants at the special rate of 68 € per night. In order to receive the discounted rate, please register and we will send you further details. *Workshop Chair* Hagen Woesner, EICT, Berlin, Germany *Technical Program Committee Co-Chairs* Juergen Quittek, NEC, Heidelberg, Germany Stefano Salsano, Univ.

Call for paper: ACM UBICOMP/CASEMANS: final deadline June 17
by Vincenzo De Florio 09 Jun '12

09 Jun '12

Dear Colleagues, this is to inform you of an extension of the deadline for ACM UBICOMP 2012 Workshop CASEMANS 2012.Final deadline is set for JUNE 17 23:59 CEST 2012. For your information, please find againherein a copy of the call for papers. Please note how the workshop proceedings will be published by the ACM and will be indexedaccordingly, and that the electronic version of the proceedings will be made available online at the ACM Digital Library. Kind regards,Waltenegus, Juha, and Vincenzo. ACM UBICOMP/CASEMANS 2012 - Call for papers Cloud computing, autonomic computing, pervasive computing, and mobile computing tend to be converging to maximize the combinedbenefits of these paradigms. A large number of applications can takeadvantage of this, including healthcare, traffic control, andsocial network applications. However, these applications are complexby nature and introduce several challenges of their own, for example,reliable sensing, accurate context recognition, scalability, security,dealing with previously unforeseen side-effects of adaptations, and so on. These challenges can be meaningfully addressed whenresearchers of diverse background come together to provide differentviews of the same problems and to help each other understandthe complex relationships between contending ideas. The Casemans 2012 workshop aims to open a platform for researchersof ubiquitous computing, autonomic computing, and similar fieldsto address these issues. This year, we are building on the success of casemans 2011 by introducing full and short paper sessions. Full papers will demonstrate solid research results (4-6 ACM pages) while short papers (typically 2 ACM Pages) demonstrate visionary, critical and even controversial ideas and work-in-progressthat can encourage discussion and further research. Scope The scope of the workshop can be described by the following terms:- Context-awareness in cloud computing- Context-awareness in energy-efficient computing- Context-awareness in smart spaces- context-awareness in wireless sensor networks- Context-awareness in social networking- Context-awareness in robotics- Context-awareness in multimedia content distribution- Context-based multimodal interaction Information for Authors The workshop proceedings will be published by the ACM and will be indexed accordingly. The electronic version of the proceedingswill be made available online at the ACM Digital Library. Manuscriptsshould be prepared according to the ACM Proceedings format. Pleasevisit the ACM template website (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates). All paper submissions will be handled electronically by Easychair(https://www.easychair.org/account/signin.cgi?conf=casemans2012).N… that submission is a two-stage process --- authors need to registertheir paper first and then submit the final manuscript. Submissionsmust be in PDF format and conform to the ACM guidelines.
