-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE Transactions on Dependable and Secure Computing, Special Issue on "Reliable and secure VANETs" Datum: Sun, 30 Mar 2014 18:23:42 +0200 Von: Alexey Vinel <alexey.vinel(a)HH.SE> Antwort an: Alexey Vinel <alexey.vinel(a)HH.SE> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Call for Papers -------------------- *IEEE Transactions on Dependable and Secure Computing** **Special Issue on "Reliable and secure VANETs"** * Vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) has gained a significant attention during the last decades both from industrial and academia communities. Novel VANET-enabled active safety automotive applications are heavily dependent on reliability and security of underlying inter-vehicle communication protocols. The error-prone nature of the wireless channel and its openness to external invasions as well as dynamic VANET environment, impose the need for intensive studies before applications like platooning or collision avoidance can become a part of our daily life. The aim of this special issue is to encompass research advances in all areas of reliability and security in VANETs. We welcome contributions relating to novel protocols for reliable and secure vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communication as well as methods for their performance evaluation. This special issue intends to provide a venue for interested researchers and practitioners to share their novel research results. Topics of interest (include but are not limited to) ------------------------------------------------------------------- - Quality of service in VANETs and cross-layer optimization - Safety-critical inter-vehicle communications - Availability, performability, and survivability - IEEE 802.11p/1609 protocols - Performance evaluation methods and tools - Field monitoring and measurement - Misbehavior detection and mitigation in VANETs - Intrusion tolerance and attack models in VANETs - Privacy-enhancing technologies for vehicular communication systems - Cryptographic protocols and algorithms, and their security - System architecture and design for reliable and secure VANETs - Mobile cloud computing enabled reliability and security for VANETs - Information-centric networking (ICN) reliability and security support for VANETs Guest Editors ------------------- - Xiaomin Ma, Oral Roberts University, USA - Dijiang Huang, Arizona State University, USA - Alexey Vinel, Halmstad University, Sweden Important Dates ----------------------- - Manuscript submission deadline: June 30th, 2014 - First notification date: August 15th, 2014 - Expected publication date: Nov/Dec 2014 Submission Procedure ------------------------------- Papers submitted to this special issue for possible publication must be original and must not be under consideration for publication in any other journal or conference. TDSC requires meaningful technical novelty in submissions that extend previously published conference papers. Extension beyond the conference version(s) is not simply a matter of length. Thus, expanded motivation, expanded discussion of related work, variants of previously reported algorithms, incremental additional experiments/simulations, may provide additional length but will fall below the line for proceeding with review. Submissions can be made at: http://www.computer.org/portal/web/tdsc/author Kind regards, Alexey Vinel ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Third IEEE Workshop on Telecom Standards - From Research to Standards (@Globecom 2014)
by Periklis Chatzimisios 28 Mar '14

28 Mar '14

================================================= CALL FOR PAPERS 3rd IEEE Workshop on Telecommunication Standards: "From Research to Standards" Part of IEEE Globecom Dec. 8-12, 2014, Austin, Texas, USA The workshop's BEST PAPERS will be recommended for publication at the IEEE Communications Magazine's supplement on Communications Standards. Recommended papers have to follow the submission guidelines of IEEE Communications Magazine. The emergence of nearly-ubiquitous mobile broadband connectivity is revolutionizing the way people live, work, interact, and socialize. Telecommunications are at the heart of this social revolution and have been attracting ever-increasing attention from researchers in both academia and industry. Although both communities have been making outstanding contributions to communications, frequently, one of these communities is unaware of the capacities, expertise, and challenges faced by the other. Standards are keys for the success of the communications industry, as enablers of global systems inter-operability. Moreover, since standardization is inherently a social body, it is a perfect environment for promoting technologies that will evolve an increasingly information oriented society. Building on the success of the previous editions of the workshop, the goal of this event is to close the gap between researchers, scientists, and standards experts from both academia and industry, and to promote standardization as an imperative vehicle for global consensus and cooperation among the key players, especially on the development of next-generation mobile communications systems (5G). An additional goal is to assemble experts from different standardization bodies, providing opportunities for a closer understanding and collaboration, catalyzing development of more interoperable standards, as well as more efficient and effective communication systems. The workshop will be organized in Austin, Texas, as part of IEEE Globecom 2014. The workshop will deliver high quality technical as well as visionary papers, which will be reviewed and selected by an international technical program committee (TPC) representing both academia and industry, with a strong standardization background. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, enhancements to existing systems and communication protocols developed by standards bodies such as ITU-T, IEEE, IETF, 3GPP, TISPAN, ETSI, OMA, Broadband Forum, oneM2M, among others. Visionary papers on hot topics, such as Advanced 5G Network Infrastructure, Software Defined Networks and Services, Network Functions Virtualization (NFV), and other works in progress being currently discussed by the standardization bodies are also welcome. All submissions are required to comply with Globecom’s guidelines. Initial submissions for review are limited to seven (7) pages. Camera-ready papers should not exceed six (6) pages including figures without incurring additional page charges (maximum 1 additional page with over length page charge). Each accepted paper must be presented at the workshop by one of the co-authors. Only timely submissions through EDAS will be accepted for review. Accepted papers will appear in IEEE Xplore. For more details, please visit the official website of the workshop (http://www.research2standards.org) Important Dates for Paper Submission: - Submission Deadline: July 15, 2014 - Acceptance Notification: September 01, 2014 - Camera-Ready Submission: October 01, 2014 - Workshop Day: December 08, 2014 Workshop General Chair: - Dr. Tarik Taleb, NEC Europe, Germany Panel and Keynotes Co-Chairs: - Dr. David Soldani, Huawei European Research Centre (ERC), Germany - Dr. Anass Benjebbour, NTT DoCoMo, Japan TPC Co-Chairs: - Dr. Adlen Ksentini, INRIA/Univ. of Rennes, France - Dr. Amitav Mukherjee, Hitachi America Ltd.
