-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] M2M SI in IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials (Deadline: 1 Oct 2012) Datum: Sun, 22 Jul 2012 19:50:14 -0700 (PDT) Von: Chonggang Wang <cgwang833(a)yahoo.com> Antwort an: Chonggang Wang <cgwang833(a)yahoo.com> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> Call for Papers : IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials Special Issue on “Machine-to-Machine Technologies & Architectures” An unprecedented communication paradigm facilitating the connection between a prior unseen number of devices is currently gripping both industrial as well as academic communities. Referred to as machine-to-machine (M2M) communication, it is essentially composed of three key ingredients: 1) a wireless end-device, 2) an infrastructure-based or infrastructure-less wireless carrier network, and 3) the back-end server network. M2M systems bear very specific and unparalleled challenges in both research and development. Prime design drivers here are the need for virtually zero-outage, immediate-response and high-efficiency to support reliable, green, long-living and delay-constrained M2M applications. With no clear winner established so far, two orthogonal approaches have thus commenced to contend for the M2M market, i.e. 1) cellular solutions which rely on wide coverage (GSM, UMTS, LTE, LTE-A, etc.); and 2) purely embedded short-range solutions relying on cheap deployments (low-power Wi-Fi, ultralow-power Bluetooth, ZigBee, etc.). The aim of this special issue on machine-to-machine is to collect from industrial and academic players tutorials and surveys related to latest M2M technologies and architectures. Contributions on major developments and updates on M2M systems will be considered. Of great interest are currently being standardized, already standardized but also promising M2M technologies and architectures. The topics relevant to this special issue include but are not limited to: • data centric approaches (M2M data fusion, aggregation, source coding, signal processing, etc.) • protocol centric approaches (novel PHY, MAC and networking paradigms, etc.) • technology centric approaches (cellular M2M technologies, capillary M2M technologies, etc.) • architecture centric approaches (ETSI M2M, 3GPP MTC, WiMAX approaches, etc.) • inter-system and heterogeneous approaches (M2M coexistence with other technologies, etc.) • key functionalities (security, synchronization, virtualization, etc.) Papers must be tailored to the problems of M2M and explicitly consider their constraints in terms of large number of nodes, short messages, resource constraints, etc. The editors maintain the right to reject papers they deem to be out of scope of this special issue. Only originally unpublished contributions and invited articles will be considered for the issue. The papers should be formatted according to the IEEE-TTS guidelines (http://dl.comsoc.org/livepubs/surveys/authors.html). Authors should submit a PDF version of their complete manuscript via Manuscriptcentral (http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/comst-ieee) according to the timetable below.

However, the limited computing and information/energy storage capabilities of mobile devices are hampering their abilities to support increasingly sophisticated applications demanded by users. The emerging cloud computing technology offers a natural solution to extend the limited capabilities of mobile devices. The resulting new paradigm of mobile cloud computing is being embraced by researchers and practitioners as an exciting new way to extend the capabilities of mobile devices and mobile platforms, which has the potential for profound impacts on the business environment and people's daily life. Empowered by mobile cloud computing, previously infeasible mobile applications are finding their ways into mobile devices. These emerging applications range from mobile storage and synchronization, fast content delivery, audio/video streaming, to interactive rich media services. Nevertheless, the implementation and wide deployment of these applications are complicated by various technical challenges across different layers in wireless networks. For example, there is a need to better understand the gaps between the quality of service (QoS) requirements of cloud-based applications and the variable performance of wireless networks due to the dynamic channel environments, and to develop novel solutions to overcome these gaps. Moreover, the design and operations of mobile cloud computing should also be sensitive to the limited energy supply in the mobile devices and system-wide energy conservation in general. As a result, advanced cognitive and adaptive techniques are highly deman ded for mobile cloud computing. Moreover, new perspectives can be taken by both academic researchers and practitioners to demystify the technical challenges and propose ground-breaking solutions. Scope of Contributions This special issue aims to explore recent advances and disseminate state-of-the-art research on designing, building, and deploying novel services and technologies to enable Mobile Cloud Computing. Original, unpublished contributions and survey/tutorial type articles will be considered for the special issue. The topics of interest for the special issue include, but are not limited to: Multi-technology and multi-device access to mobile cloud computing Cognitive and ubiqutous access control for mobile cloud computing Access and communication schemes for cloud computing in mobile environment Flexible architecture of mobile technologies for supporting cloud computing Cloud computing to enable mobile rich media Cloud-based mobile audio/video streaming techniques Cloud-assisted 3D/multiview rending for mobile devices Cloud-based real-time interactive multimedia service for mobile users Performance evaluation of rich media service supported by mobile cloud computing Quality of Experience (QoE) studies and improvements for mobile cloud computing Green Mobile Cloud Computing Dynamic allocation alogrithms of computing load and networking load for mobile devices Energy-efficient multimedia service in mobile cloud computing Energy consumption measurement and profiling of mobile devices for cloud computing Power efficiency in datacenter management for mobile cloud applications Next-generation Mobile Cloud Computing Services and Applications New applications for cloud-supported mobile online gaming and other entertainments.

Human mobility makes it possible for such key components to interact, promoting cooperation and sharing of content, services and resources. Smartphones, tablet PCs, and other personal devices act as mobile computing elements able to gather information about the surrounding environment according to the mobility of users. In other situations these devices operate as mobile nodes of the computing and/or networking infrastructure, where interaction and communication occur opportunistically. The goal of PerMoby is to explore the impact of human mobility on the achievement of the pervasive computing vision. The focus is on pervasive applications, systems, and protocols where mobility plays an active role in achieving the end goals. Original papers addressing both theoretical and practical aspects of human-centric applications and systems are solicited. Papers describing prototype implementations and deployment of such applications and systems are particularly welcome. The submission of papers on controversial issues is also encouraged. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - pervasive systems and applications based on (or influenced by) human mobility - mobile phone sensing applications and systems - opportunistic and participatory sensing, and anything in between - opportunistic computing - pervasive systems with humans in the loop - wearable sensing systems - mobility models - distributed computing approaches that rely on human mobility - impact of human mobility on wireless communication - green pervasive applications that leverage human mobility - mobility aware protocols - opportunistic networking - pervasive social networking PAPER SUBMISSION Papers should contain original material and should not be previously published or currently submitted for consideration elsewhere. Manuscripts are limited to a maximum of 6 pages in IEEE conference format. Accepted papers will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press in the combined PerCom 2012 Workshops Proceedings and will appear on IEEE Xplore.

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. ACM HotMobile 2013 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. 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. 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 For more submission guidelines, please visit the conference website.

Years of effort had been given by researchers and engineers to maximize the lifetime of WSNs in almost all the aspects, e.g., routing, topology control, deployment, data aggregation, clustering, and sleep scheduling. However, recently advanced technical developments have allowed sensor nodes to harvest environmental energy from natural sources, e.g., wind, water flow, ocean currents, and solar, which enable WSNs to have the rechargeable energy supply. With multiple energy sources, the overall efficiency, reliability and sustainability are enhanced in any WSN application system. This emerging technical development gives sensor nodes a totally different energy model compared to traditional battery powered sensor nodes, which fundamentally changed the assumption for many existing lifetime optimization schemes. We should look back almost all traditional challenging issues in WSNs to cope with this new changing. New research issues, e.g., power management with multiple energy sources, should also be considered. This special issue aims at seeking new approaches, methods, and schemes for solving both traditional and new challenging issues in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting. Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished papers, which are not under review in any other journal. The topics suggested can be discussed in term of concepts, state of the art, standards, designs, implementations, running experiments or applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following scopes: l Routing in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting l Sleep scheduling in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting l Topology control in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting l Data aggregation in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting l Clustering in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting l Multimedia streaming in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting l Security in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting l Cross-layer optimization in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting l Power management in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting l Capacity modeling, performance analysis, and theoretical analysis l Mobility management in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting l Transmission in WSNs with environmental energy harvesting Important dates u Submission Deadline: Sept. 30th, 2012 u Notification of Acceptance: Dec. 30th, 2012 u Final papers Due: Feb. 28th, 2013 Guideline for Authors Submitted papers should not have been previously published nor be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere.
