-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: CALL FOR PAPERS -- ACM MobiCom 2013, the Annual International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking Datum: Sun, 17 Feb 2013 13:29:45 -0800 Von: Pei Zhang <peizhang(a)CMU.EDU> Antwort an: Pei Zhang <peizhang(a)CMU.EDU> An: SIGMOBILE-MEMBERS(a)LISTSERV.ACM.ORG Apologies for multiple postings. Please note the abstracts submission deadline is:March 8, 2013 (11:59 PM EST) ************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS -- Mobicom 2013 http://www.sigmobile.org/mobicom/2013/index.html ************************************** As the premier conference on mobile computing and wireless communication, MobiCom 2013 solicits papers that focus on the theory, system, practice and challenge of providing users with a successful mobile or wireless experience. This includes how mobile computing changes how people use their computer, computing resources and applications, as well the systems, services and technology enabling those applications. At its core, we expect papers to address issues related to mobile computing and communication challenges in the presence of various wireless and mobile networks, including but not limited to wireless LANs, cellular data networks, mobile social networks, delay-tolerant networks, sensor networks, personal area networks, vehicular networks, wireless mesh networks, and mobile ad hoc networks. Successful papers will address real research challenges through theoretical analysis, novel system design, as well as real-world measurement and deployment of mobile systems and applications. MobiCom 2013 will be a diverse conference, and we strongly encourage the submission of mobile systems, experimental and theoretical papers. The program committee will evaluate each paper using metrics that are appropriate for the topic area. For example, a systems or experimental paper in the protocol area will be evaluated based on the innovations in the protocol design, practical implementation, and realistic evaluation, whereas a more theoretical paper may be evaluated mostly based on innovation within the design of the algorithm and its provable properties. At the same time, the evaluation of wireless and mobile networking technologies is challenging because of the significant impact that the physical environment has on performance. For this reason, all papers must carefully describe and justify the evaluation methodology that is used and identify its strengths and weaknesses. The program committee will referee all papers, and accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. * * *Paper Submission Instructions*** All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Authors should prepare a PDF version of their full paper. Any papers that do not adhere to the following guidelines will be immediately rejected: Maximum of 12 pages Font size no smaller than 10 points Double column format with each column having dimensions 9.25 inches ? 3.33 inches, a space of 0.33 inches between the two columns, and with no more than 55 lines of text per column Fit properly on US letter-sized paper (8.5 inches ? 11 inches) Detailed instructions on how and where to submit your paper can be found here. All submitted papers will be judged based on their quality through double-blind reviewing, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. Detailed instructions to authors on preparing a double-blind manuscript will be posted here shortly. Authors' names must not appear anywhere in the paper or in the PDF file. Submitted papers must be original work, and a paper with substantial similarity must neither be already published, nor be currently under review for publication in any other venue. Please direct any questions about the paper submission process to the Program Co-Chairs at mobicom_pcchairsacm.org. * * *Best Paper Award* All papers will be considered for the Best Paper Award.

CFP: 8th International Workshop on Critical Information Infrastructures Security (CRITIS 2013)
by Cristina Alcaraz 17 Feb '13

17 Feb '13

** Apologies for multiple copies ** C a l l F o r P a p e r s 8th International Workshop on Critical Information Infrastructures Security (CRITIS 2013) Amsterdam, The Netherlands September 16-18, 2013 http://www.critis2013.nl The annually held CRITIS conference is devoted to Critical (Information) Infrastructure security, protection and resilience. The 8th edition will be held from 16-18 September 2013 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The CRITIS 2013 Call for Papers is addressed to all researchers and critical infrastructure stakeholders who wish to present their papers at the conference. More information can be found at: www.critis2013.nl. Modern societies increasingly depend on critical infrastructures. Those themselves increasingly depend on and are entangled with Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Disruption or loss of (ICT-based) critical infrastructures may result in serious consequences for the functioning of the society, the economy, the functioning of governments, the ecology and social well-being of people, and in the most unfortunate cases loss of human lives, livestock and other animals. As a consequence, the security, reliability and resilience of these infrastructures are critical for the society. Critical (Information) Infrastructure Protection (C(I)IP) is therefore a major objective for governments, companies, operators of these infrastructures and the worldwide research community. CRITIS 2013 is set to continue a well-established tradition of presenting innovative research and exploring new challenges for the protection of critical information-based infrastructures (CIP/CIIP). CRITIS brings together stakeholders from industry, operators and governments as well as researchers and professionals from academia, applied research organisations and industry interested in all different aspects of C(I)IP. One focus of CRITIS 2013 is on the new challenges of cyber resilience of smart cities and smart mobility, a topic that will be highlighted by thought provoking and visionary keynote speeches and by conference papers. The second day of CRITIS 2013 will be a meeting place between the diverse set of C(I)IP stakeholders with their short, medium and long term needs and the academic and applied research communities. CRITIS2013 intends to foster collaboration, to find common, collaborative approaches towards solutions and to boost R&D to address the identified needs. On the third day, the focus will be on the (academic) advances in C(I)IP R&D. A (virtual) multi-disciplinary community of new talented PhD students and junior researchers in the field of C(I)IP will be build: YOUNG CRITIS. Young CRITIS appeals to the scientific C(I)IP communities at national, European and global level. Given the focus areas above, the programme committee will select papers per topic category (or track) mentioned below. Therefore, authors need to state which topic category they address. Researchers are solicited to contribute to the conference by submitting research papers, work-in-progress reports, R&D project results, surveying works and industrial experiences describing significant advances in C(I)IP. Stakeholders from governments, Critical Infrastructure operators, and industry are encouraged to submit papers which describe their current and future challenges to be engaged by researchers and multidisciplinary research teams. Important Dates Deadline for submission of papers: May 10, 2013 Notification to authors: June 30, 2013 Camera-ready papers: August 16, 2013 The CRITIS 2013 Scientific Committee invites papers for the following four topic categories: Topic category 1: Resilience of Smart Cities and Smart Mobility Topic category 2: Requirements for C(I)IP by C(I)I stakeholders (e.g., Industry, CI operators, government agencies, EU Directorates) and integrated solution directions by CIP/CIIP-related R&D communities and disciplines. Topics of interest for category 2 include: C(I)IP requirements for Resilient Smart Cities C(I)IP requirements for Resilient Smart Mobility C(I)IP requirements posed as future (near, mid and long term) challenges Requirements for Resilient (Information) Infrastructures C(I)I Survivability requirements The use of clouds for C(I)I operations Economics, Investments and Incentives of C(I)IP C(I)I Exercises & Contingency Plans Trust Models in Normal Situations and During Escalation C(I)IP Polices at National and Cross-border levels C(I)IP R&D Agenda at National and International levels Papers submitted for category 2 that do not fit the focus of the second conference day, may be reassigned by the conference organizers to the selection process of categories 3 and 4. Topic category 3: Advances in C(I)IP Topic category 4: YOUNG CRITIS Topics of interest for categories 3 and 4 include all topics mentioned under category 2 as well as topics like: Resilient C(I)I and C(I)I Survivability Resilience of interacting C(I)I Cyber Defense of C(I)I Self-healing, Self-protection, and Self-management Architectures C(I)I dependency Modeling, Simulation, Analysis and Validation Protection of Complex Cyber - Physical Systems Cyber security related threats & vulnerabilities, modeling and analysis Cyber Security of Smart Grids, Process Control and SCADA Advanced Forensic Methodologies for C(I)I Public - Private Partnership for C(I)I Resilience Instructions for Paper Submission All submissions will be subjected to a thorough blind review by at least three reviewers. Papers should be in English and no longer than 12 pages, including bibliography and well-marked appendices. As in previous years, it is planned that post-proceedings are published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Pre-proceedings will appear at the time of the conference. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register with the Workshop and present the paper. Paper submission will be done via EasyChair. The submitted paper (in PDF or PostScript format) should follow the respective template offered by Springer. The paper must start with a title, a short abstract, and a list of keywords. However, the submission should be anonymised and all author names, affiliations, acknowledgements, and obvious traceable references should be eliminated. Extended and fully revised versions of the best papers accepted for CRITIS 2013, after a further peer-reviewed process, will be published in a special issue of the International Journal of Critical Infrastructures (Inderscience).

Wireless sensor and actor networks (WSANs) are the confluence point where the traditional fields of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), robot networks and control theory meet. In WSAN, nodes collaborate to accomplish distributed sensing and actuation tasks. Leveraged by the control and mobility of actors, the networking process and applications embrace a whole new set of possibilities. Actors may deploy, repair and relocate sensors to improve coverage, build routes and fix network partition to ensure data communication, change network topology to shape routing patterns and balance energy consumption, and respond to reported events in a timely and effective manner. The benefits are limited only by imagination. As an emerging field, WSANs are in need of new networking techniques, by which they can fully exploit their particularities and potentials. WiSARN aims to bring together state-of-the-art contributions on the design, specification and implementation of architectures, algorithms and protocols for current and future applications of WSAN. Original, unpublished contributions are solicited in ALL aspects of WSANs, WSNs, robot networks, and robotics and automation.
