Call for Papers ACM Transactions on Internet Technology Theme Section on Pricing and Incentives in Networks and Systems http://toit.acm.org/CfP.html ******************************************************************* CALL FOR PAPERS Today's communication networks and networked systems are highly complex and heterogeneous, and are often owned by multiple profit-making entities. For new technologies or infrastructure designs to be adopted, they must not be only based on sound engineering performance considerations but also present the right economic incentives. Recent changes in regulations of the telecommunication industry make such economic considerations even more urgent. For instance, new concerns such as network neutrality have a significant impact on the evolution of communication networks. At the same time, communication networks and networked systems support increasing economic activity based on applications and services such as cloud computing, social networks, and peer-to-peer networks. These applications pose new challenges such as the development of good pricing and incentive mechanisms to promote effective system-wide behavior. In relation to these applications, security and privacy also require consideration of economic aspects to be fully understood. The aim of this theme section is to bring together state-of-the-art research contributions on the application of economic and game-theoretic models and principles to address challenges in the development of networks and network-based applications and services. We invite submission of original completed work not currently under review by any other journal describing theoretical/methodological contributions or applications to cases of interest. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Pricing of resources in communication networks, grids, and cloud computing * Pricing of online goods, copyright issues, effect of network structure (e.g., social network) * Economic issues in universal broadband access and economics of peering * Effect of market structure and regulations (e.g., network neutrality) * Economics of networks security and privacy * Auctions and applications to networks: spectrum auctions, auction-based marketplaces for network and cloud resources * Incentive mechanisms for networks: peer-to-peer systems, clouds, wireless networks, spam prevention, security * Methods for engineering incentives and disincentives (e.g., reputation, trust, control, accountability, anonymity) * Empirical studies of strategic behavior (or the lack thereof) in existing, deployed systems * Design of incentive-aware network architecture and protocols * Game-theoretic models and techniques for network economics: large games, learning, mechanism design, interaction of game theory and information theory or queuing theory, information exchange, diffusion, dynamics of cooperation and network formation, trades in social and economic networks * Algorithmic mechanism design * Critiques of existing models and solution concepts, as well as proposals of better models and solution concepts * Studies of polarization, online collaboration, crowdsourcing, and human computation ******************************************************************* SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS Initial submissions must be at most 20 pages and comply with the ACM Transactions on Internet Technology policies.

It is well understood that ICT is one of the keys to a future low-carbon and sustainable society. Communications technologies will be critical to achieving large-scale energy savings in all domains including communications, manufacturing, transportation, buildings, and electricity generation and distribution. In this context, there is a critical need for new ways of reducing energy consumption of communication systems if the current trajectory of traffic growth and supporting anywhere/anytime/anything access is to continue unabated. Energy costs are significant in a broad range of communications networks ranging from data center networks (where network equipment consume about 15% of the overall energy used) to cellular networks (where energy use of base stations amounts to around 70% of the t! otal). The need for ‘greener’ communications technologies has been recognized by the research community as demonstrated by the significant research efforts in this area during the last years. However, many challenges still remain to be addressed. The special issue of Computer Networks on Green Communications will focus on recent research results in the area of green communications. We seek papers describing research results that show significant energy savings in communications systems. We also seek survey and tutorial papers in green communications. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): - Energy-efficient home, access, core, and data center networks - Energy-efficient wireless access, home and sensor networks - Energy-efficient cellular networks - Energy-efficient content distribution - Power-aware algorithms, protocols, network equipment, and applications - Software-defined networks for energy efficiency - Energy Management as a part of Network Management - Performance models and metrics for analyzing performance-energy trade-offs - Trade-offs in embodied versus use phase energy consumption - Trade-offs in thin client, cloud computing, and network energy use - Regulation and standardisation * Guest Editors * Ken Christensen University of South Florida, Tampa, FL, USA Email: christen(a)csee.usf.edu Xavier Costa Pérez NEC R&D Laboratories Europe, Heidelberg, Germany Email: Xavier.costa(a)ieee.org Pablo Serrano University Carlos III de Madrid, Leganés, Spain Email: pablo(a)it.uc3m.es Jinsong Wu Bell Laboratories, China Email: wujs(a)ieee.org * Important Dates * - Paper Submission Due: February 28, 2014 - Notification: May 31, 2014 - Camera ready: June 30, 2014 - Publication Date: 4th Quarter of 2014 * Submission Requirements * Submitted articles must be clearly written in good English.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [InternetTC] Special Issue Elsevier Computer Communications & IoT Datum: Thu, 22 Aug 2013 21:50:50 +0200 Von: Matthias Waehlisch <waehlisch(a)IEEE.ORG> An: itc(a)COMSOC.ORG Call for Papers Special Issue on "Current and Future Architectures, Protocols, and Services for the Internet of Things" will be published in Elsevier Computer Communications Scope The Internet of Things (IoT) started as a research topic more than a decade ago and evolved towards partial deployment in the last few years. It describes the integration of magnitudes of smart devices into the current Internet. Those devices challenge Internet architectures and protocols. They may exhibit very limited resources making the direct application of common approaches nearly impractical. On the other hand, they significantly increase heterogeneity, which complicates the extension of the status quo. The Internet of Things has continuously been discussed. Related compilations of contributions usually miss two important aspects. First, the analysis of IoT approaches that have been deployed or will be available soon in the current Internet. Analyzing those solutions may help to understand relevant aspects of a successful deployment and to identify common pitfalls while IoT approaches have been designed. Second, deployed protocols need a careful revisit. In contrast to well-established Internet protocols and architectures, IoT techniques are fresh and not fully developed on the same level. In addition, new network paradigms emerge, which need to be considered for a sustainable future IoT. In this special issue we are seeking new and unpublished papers in the field of architectures, protocols, and services for the IoT with a special focus on current and future deployment. They should contribute to at least one of the following aspects. (1) Identifying and solving open technical problems. (2) Performing thorough evaluation and comparison of existing proposals or standards. (3) Addressing integrative aspects towards a full-fledged IoT deployment. (4) Enabling new services. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Wireless, wired, and hybrid networks - IETF proposals such as RPL and 6LoWPAN - Privacy and security - Interconnection between IP and sensor networks - Integration of future Internet paradigms such as ICN - Machine to Machine communications in IoT scenarios - Energy efficiency in smart object scenarios - IoT management and interoperability - Participatory and global sensing - Performance measurement and tuning, scalability - Simulation and analytical studies - Testbed, prototype, and practical systems Schedule Submission deadline: September 15, 2013 Author notification: January 31, 2014 Revised paper due: March 15, 2014 Final author notification: April 15, 2014 Expected publication: Fall 2014 Guest Editors Matthias Wählisch Freie Universität Berlin, Germany waehlisch(a)ieee.org Damla Turgut University of Central Forida, USA turgut(a)eecs.ucf.edu Tom Pfeifer Technical University of Berlin, Germany t.pfeifer(a)computer.org Anura P. Jayasumana Colorado State University, USA Anura.Jayasumana(a)colostate.edu Instructions for submission Manuscripts must not have been previously published nor currently under review by other journals or conferences. If the paper was published in a conference, the submitted manuscript should be a substantial extension of the conference paper. Authors are also required to submit their published conference articles and a summary document explaining the enhancements made in the journal version. Papers must be submitted through the Computer Communications website at http://ees.elsevier.com/comcom, where guidelines for the manuscript preparation can also be found. To ensure that all manuscripts are correctly identified for consideration by the Special Issue, the authors should select "Special Issue: IoT" when they reach the "Article Type" step in the submission process. -- Matthias Waehlisch .

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Call for Participation - SenSys 2013 Doctoral Colloquium Datum: Mon, 2 Sep 2013 23:03:31 -0700 Von: SenSys Publicity <sensys(a)cfpmail.info> An: tci-announce(a)COMPUTER.ORG [ ** Please excuse any duplicates you may receive ** ] Note: Submission deadline extended to September 6th, 2013. SenSys 2013 Doctoral Colloquium November 13 November 2013 (afternoon), Rome, Italy. http://sensys.acm.org/2013/doccol.html The Doctoral Colloquium (DC) of SenSys'13 is to provide a friendly, supportive, and constructive environment where PhD students can present their research-in-progress for an open discussion guided by a panel of experienced researchers and practitioners. Applicants should be far enough into their PhD to have a concrete proposal, and have initially outlined the salient issues and proposed research methodology. Applicants should not be planning to submit their PhD thesis or dissertation for at least four months after the DC, so that any advice or input may still be incorporated into the doctoral work. The DC will be a half-day, seminar-style event, consisting of short presentations followed by round table discussion. Time will be allotted to each student not only for the presentation, but also for careful, in-depth consideration and discussion amongst the panelists and DC participants. In addition to the DC presentation, the participants will be given a chance to present a poster at the poster session during the main conference. Submissions Topic scope is the same as that listed in the SenSys call for papers. DC submissions should consist of a single PDF document using the SenSys paper template. The document should contain the following: Research summary (3 pages) describing the work in progress and including a 100-word abstract. Things to consider for inclusion in the research summary might be: the expected contribution to the field of sensor networking; the original idea or thesis statement; the problem domain and the specific problem addressed; a brief overview of related work; the methodological approach; research carried out and results so far. Student biographical sketch, including the names and affiliations of the research advisor(s), and expected date of dissertation submission. The submission site can be found at: https://sensys2013.cs.virginia.edu/doctoralCol/index.php Research summaries will be reviewed by the chairs and panel members. If the work is accepted, a student may be expected to make clarifications and improvements to the research summary by the camera-ready deadline. Note that the research summaries will not be formally published, but hard copies will be made available to colloquium delegates. A prize for best student presentation will be awarded by the panel. Registration Accepted participants of the doctoral colloquium shall register with the SenSys workshop registration rate (if applicable at the student rate). The registration is free if the student also attends and has registered for the SenSys conference. Participants can also apply for SenSys travel grants. Important Dates (all at 11:59pm PDT) Submission Deadline: September 6th, 2013 Notification of Acceptance: October 6, 2013 Camera-Ready: October 27, 2013 Colloquium: November 13, 2013 Organizers Chair Cecilia Mascolo, University of Cambridge Committee: Polly Huang, National Taiwan University, Taiwan Nic Lane, Microsoft Research Asia , China Andrew Markham, University of Oxford, UK Emiliano Miluzzo, AT&T, USA Luca Mottola, Politecnico di Milano Italy & SICS Sweden Anthony Rowe, CMU, USA Silvia Santini Technische Universitat Darmstadt, Germany Sasu Tarkoma University of Helsinki, Finland _______________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from the tci-announce list, click the following link: https://cs-listserv.ieee.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=tci-announce&A=1
