Analysis of the data may be used to provide context-based services (e.g., presence detection), but also serve as the foundation for novel services (e.g. automated recommendations for energy savings). To date, the potential of this domain has barely been explored, although more and more energy data is becoming available due to the increasing number of deployed smart metering equipment. At the moment, one of the most important research challenges in smart energy systems is thus the creation of value-added services that exploit the information content in energy generation and consumption data in such a way that they can inspire new functionalities and context models. The aim of this workshop is thus to bring together practitioners and researchers from both academia and industry in order to have a forum for discussion and technical presentations on the recent advances in the numerous opportunities opened up by the use of energy data in context-aware systems. It furthermore serves as a forum for the smart energy research community to discuss open issues, novel solutions and the future development of smart energy management systems in general. Topics of Interest ------------------ Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Novel architectures for the integration of smart meter/smart plugs into pervasive computing systems - Seamless energy meter integration in the design and architecture of smart home/office spaces - Applications relying on energy data including, for instance, energy optimization and sustainable operation of smart cities, household load disaggregation, generation and load forecasting, and other means for informed load shifting - Novel business models relying on energy data - Collection, processing, and integration of energy data to improve the control over loads and generation (e.g., distributed renewable sources) - Security and privacy considerations in smart energy metering, including novel means to mitigate privacy and security threats - Experiences with experimental power metering system prototypes and pilots - Power metering testbeds and data sets for the comparison of household characteristics and processing approaches in a globalized world - Industrial use cases showing gaps to be filled by future research Submission Instructions ----------------------- Authors are invited to submit regular (full) papers for presentation at the workshop, describing original, previously unpublished work, which is not currently under review by another workshop, conference, or journal. Regular papers should present novel perspectives within the general scope of the workshop. Submissions of papers must be formatted according to the IEEE 8.5x11 conference format and must not exceed 6 pages. Papers in excess of page limits shall not be considered for review or publication. Accepted papers will appear in the IEEE PerCom '15 Workshops proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society Press. The authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their paper will be presented at the workshop.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE INFOCOM WIDN Workshop 2015 Datum: Wed, 5 Nov 2014 14:51:28 -0500 Von: My T. Thai <mythai(a)CISE.UFL.EDU> Antwort an: My T. Thai <mythai(a)CISE.UFL.EDU> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS ============================================================ IEEE INFOCOM Workshop on Inter-Dependent Networks (WIDN) April, 27, Hong Kong, 2015 (in conjunction with IEEE INFOCOM 2015 - April, 26 - May,1 , Hong Kong) *http://optnetsci.cise.ufl.edu/widn2015/ <http://optnetsci.cise.ufl.edu/widn2015/>* ============================================================ SCOPE AND TOPICS OF INTEREST --------------------------------------------------- Modern networked systems, in particular, networked physical infrastructures, are inter-dependent in such a way that changing in one network may have a profound impact on other systems. One notable example of such interdependent networked system is the smart-grid, of which the power stations depend on communication networks for control and management and vice versa, the communication networks depend on the power systems for their electricity supports. Furthermore, the rapid adoption and pervasiveness of computing, and emergence of smart cyber-physical systems and Internet of Things (IoT) have created new capabilities for autonomy, interoperability, interaction and cooperation between many critical computing, communication and control networks (“cyber systems”) and physical infrastructures and “smart” environments (“physical systems”). Unfortunately, the connections with cyberspace also open to new surfaces of vulnerabilities and new threat vectors. The challenge is to understand the interdependencies of these systems and how the dynamics are cascaded between them so as to design and develop “smarter” and more resilient inter-dependent networked (cyber-physical) systems. The objective of this workshop is to advance and promote theoretical foundations for understanding the behaviors of and inter-dependencies in modern networked systems -- especially, in critical (networked) physical infrastructure systems -- and emerging cyber-physical systems. It also seeks to explore new system architectures and innovative mechanisms for the design and development of robust and resilient interdependent networked systems. This workshop will foster an interdisciplinary research community that discovers new knowledge for the design and operation of national critical networked infrastructures as processes and services. LIST OF TOPICS The Workshop on Inter-Dependent Networks (WIDN) welcomes contributions that are mainly involved, but not limited to the following (non-exhaustive) list of topics, relevant to its broader scope: - Understand and design of interdependent critical infrastructures - Vulnerability and resilience of interdependent networks - Cascading failures in interdependent networks - Multiplex and multi-layered networks - Network representations - Complexity and approximation of interdependent networks optimization and control techniques - Theoretical frameworks and multidisciplinary computational models of interdependent networks - Analytical prediction of complex behaviors - Cyber-physical systems IMPORTANT DATES - Full Paper Submission Deadline: *December 14, 2014* - Review Deadline: January 24, 2015 - Author Notification: February 7, 2015 - Camera-ready paper due: February 27, 2015 - Workshop Date: April 27, 2015 SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ------------------------------------------ We call for original and unpublished papers with no longer than 6 pages. The manuscripts should be formatted in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font). Submission via EDAS (WIDN 2015) https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=18921 Selected papers will be published in a special issue of Computational Social Networks journal and Journal of Combinatorial Optimization.

It is estimated that people will increase their need of mobility around 35% per decade for the next 3 decades. In this context, vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) can be seen as new key enablers of the future networked society. Vehicles travelling acquire, as mobile sensors, a variety of information with increased capillarity in time and space. The vast information collected by vehicles can be used to enable a plurality of new services addressing safety, traffic management, smart navigation, in-vehicle remote control, pollution measurements, urban surveillance, environment monitoring, forensic investigations, and Internet access. Hence, VANETs represent a wide dynamic sensing opportunity. The acquisition, sharing, processing, and transmission of data from, to, and among vehicles foresee a new way to manage the communications: heterogeneity is inherent to devices, to data, and also to technologies. This opens new challenges whose complexity increases with the amount of connected vehicles. A typical challenge is how to make vehicles opportunistically cooperate, sharing resources and contents, how to optimize the transmission through operated networks or road side units (i.e., vehicle to infrastructure -V2I - communications), and how to obtain a real advantage from vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications (such as, offloading of cellular networks, resource optimization, creation of new services). Other challenges derive from the jointly management and seamless integration of heterogeneous data flows, from frequent but small packets transmitted in V2V links, to huge multimedia flows shared and transmitted through the infrastructure. This special issue is seeking original contributions on VANETs, sharing the research efforts and deployment challenges in this field and discussing challenges, key enabling techniques, unprecedented approaches, and field trails. Topics of interests include (but are not limited to): -Enabling technologies for vehicles cooperation (IEEE 802.11p, LTE, Visible Light Communication, etc.) -Cooperative approach for V2I communication -Physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) techniques (OFDMA, CSMA, non orthogonal waveforms) for V2V and V2I communications -Design of advanced PHYs for the coexistence of heterogeneous data flows (high rate flows with several low rate flows) -Multi-modal heterogeneous networks and optimal management of resources -Distributed algorithms for data collection -Optimal retrieval of relevant data and optimal routing toward the finalusers -New ideas toward an efficient handling of huge number of devices with widely varying requirements (e.g., information-centric networking) -Example of ITS or Smart Cities applications relying on data collected by vehicles -Field trial experiments. Original, high quality contributions that are not yet published or that are not currently under review by other journals or peer-reviewed conferences are sought.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE WCNC 2015 workshop on Energy Efficiency in the Internet of Things, and Internet of Things for Energy Efficiency (E2IoT 2015) Datum: Mon, 3 Nov 2014 14:45:01 +0100 Von: Gianluca Rizzo <Gianluca.Rizzo(a)HEVS.CH> Antwort an: Gianluca Rizzo <Gianluca.Rizzo(a)HEVS.CH> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1st International Workshop on Energy Efficiency in the Internet of Things, and Internet of Things for Energy Efficiency (E2IoT 2015) New Orleans, LA, USA – 9-12 March, 2015 www.e2iot.com In conjunction with WCNC-2015 http://wcnc2015.ieee-wcnc.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ E2IoT 2015 Call For Papers ======================== This workshop aims at gathering researchers and developers from the fields of Internet of Things, Pervasive, Ubiquitous Computing and Green ICT to discuss the possibilities of new applications and services which decrease the carbon footprint of IoT, and which exploit IoT to reduce the carbon footprint of our society. The evolution of ICT has led to the diffusion of wireless personal devices, such as smart mobile phones, personal computers and wearable devices, designed to operate over the Internet. This, together with the exponential growth of the number of interconnected devices is leading towards the commonly called Internet of Things (IoT). Presently, a large share of the total energy consumption of the Internet takes place at the edge. This share is increasing with the progressive deployment of the IoT, which is reshaping the edge of the network, and which in the near future is bound to generate the large majority of traffic on the Internet. Though usually small and not power hungry, the sheer number of the devices composing the IoT will make them the highest contributors to total energy consumption in the ICT sector. For meeting the challenge of a greener Internet, therefore, a greener IoT is fundamental. This involves elaboration of new approaches at the device level (energy efficient, energy proportional devices) as well as at the system level (algorithms for energy efficient network services as well as application layers services provisioning). On the other side, the pervasiveness of sensing and computing capabilities in IoT is enabling a wealth of new applications for energy efficient management in almost all domains of human activity, from transportation to lighting, from waste management to the smart grid.
