-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP IEEE PERCOM 2016 Workshop on Security Privacy and Trust in the IoT (SPT-IoT) Datum: Fri, 13 Nov 2015 12:01:44 +0000 Von: Robin Ram Mohan Doss <robin.doss(a)DEAKIN.EDU.AU> Antwort an: Robin Ram Mohan Doss <robin.doss(a)DEAKIN.EDU.AU> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG The 1st IEEE PERCOM WORKSHOP ON SECURITY PRIVACY AND TRUST IN THE INTERNET OF THINGS (SPT-IOT) 2016 In conjunction with IEEE PERCOM 2016 March 14-18, 2016 Sydney, Australia EDAS link: http://edas.info/N21137 The Internet of Things (IoT) is a novel design paradigm, envisioned as a network of billions or trillions of machines communicating with one another and rapidly gaining global attention from academia, industry, and government. Pervasive computing is at the heart of IoT and forms a fundamental building block necessary to realize the IoT. Equipped with pervasive technologies such as RFID and smart dust in addition to sensors, actuators and machine-to-machine (M2M) devices, IoT has the potential to offer innovative solutions to global challenges faced by ageing populations, climate change, growing cost of healthcare as well as how we manage our environment and natural resources.. The heterogeneous nature of the IoT as well as the computational constraints of many of the building blocks of the IoT make security, privacy and trust a challenging problem to solve on the one hand, while security, privacy and trust play a critical role for most if not all applications of IoT in doma ins such as surveillance, healthcare, security, transport, food safety, manufacturing, logistics and supply chain management. Without effective solutions for security, privacy and trust reliable data fusion and mining, qualified services with context-aware intelligence and enhanced user acceptance and experience cannot be achieved. The proposed IEEE Percom workshop on Security, Privacy and Trust for IoT aims to provide a forum that brings together researchers from academia as well as practitioners from industry, standardization bodies, and government to meet and exchange ideas on recent research and future directions for the IoT with a specific focus on IoT security, privacy and trust. The technical discussion will be focused on the communications and network security aspects of IoT and the key enabling technologies for IoT, especially M2M communications and networking, RFID technology and Near Field Communications (NFC), the challenges to security, privacy and trust presented and novel approaches to solving these challenges. The technical topics of interest to the workshop include, but are not limited to: - IoT secure access network technologies and capillary networks; - secure channel and traffic models; - secure spectrum management for M2M/IoT radio communications; - security of RFID, sensors, actuator technologies; - IoT secure network infrastructure; - IoT security protocols; - privacy in applications of the IoT; - IoT networking and communication security; - circuit and system design for secure smart objects in the IoT; - security, trust, and privacy issues for devices and services; - naming, address management and end-to-end addressability; - methods for secure by design IoT; - methods for IoT security analysis and audit; - privacy and anonymization techniques in IoT; - secure cloud of things; - trust management architectures; - lightweight security solutions; - authentication and access control in IoT; - identification and biometrics in IoT; - liability and policy enforcement in IoT; - security of Big data in IoT; - cyber physical systems security; - cyber attacks detection and prevention; - embedded platforms for cryptography (implementations for performance-optimized, resource constrained, energy-efficient platforms); - hardware security primitives; - secure pervasive/Ubiquitous Computing Software and Systems; - new Privacy and Security Techniques for Embedded Software and Systems; and - ethics and legal considerations in IoT.

Inspired by governments' visions of vastly improved road traffic safety and transport efficiency and hailed as industry's enabler of a plethora of value-added services for passengers and drivers, stakeholders are pushing the rulemaking for an adoption of vehicular communication technologies in newly sold cars, in turn inspiring bold research ventures. Despite the plethora of efforts devoted to this research field, the peculiarities of vehicular environments call into question the capabilities of existing solutions and standard specifications to meet the increasingly strict scalability, reliability, and quality of experience demands of such visions. Indeed, the expected tsunami of data to be exchanged, both to support cooperative/autonomous driving applications and to satisfy the growing data appetite of users on wheels, will burden the network. In such a context, the widespread availability of multiple radio technologies and multiple radio channels per technology, along with complete communication systems is envisioned to merge with sophisticated physical layer and medium access control approaches, and emerging cognitive radio and software-defined radio techniques, thus opening the door to new exciting research opportunities in multi-radio, multi-technology, multi-system vehicular communications. The goal of this special issue is to gather high-quality and unpublished papers contributing to the evolution of vehicular networking and, in particular, focusing on the aforementioned developments. The contributions to this special issue may present novel ideas, methodologies, algorithms, architectures, models, experiments. High-quality review and survey papers are also welcomed. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Multi-radio and multi-channel communications - Multi-technology (PAN, WLAN, long range) communications - Multi-system (short range radio, cellular, backbone) communications - Physical layer, medium access, and congestion control design from radio to visible light and beyond - Vehicle-to-X (roadside, pedestrian, grid, in-vehicle) data dissemination, system integration, services, and applications - IEEE 802.11p DSRC/WAVE, ETSI ITS-G5, ARIB standardization - Cellular technologies for vehicular communications and/or vehicle-to-X (LTE-Advanced, LTE-Direct) - New challenges in security & privacy - Simulation tools and methodologies, analytical models, experimental evaluation and field operational tests - Applications of multi-radio, multi-technology, or multi-system vehicular communications Paper Submission ---------------- Please see http://www.elsevier.com/locate/comcom for preparation guidelines and visit http://ees.elsevier.com/comcom to submit your manuscript.

But RF communication has been a victim of its own success, the ever increasing number of devices joining the IoT are saturating the RF bandwidth. We need alternative ways to exploit RF technology and to use other means to transmit data wirelessly. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners from different communities to discuss and explore novel wireless communication technologies for the IoT. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: + backscatter communication + visible light communication + magnetic induction communication + infrared communication + laser communication + camera-based communication + thermal-based communication + acoustic communication + applications for novel wireless communication methods + new platforms + theoretical models + new communication methods with RF signals + new network stacks (MAC, Routing) for novel communication technologies ==================================================================== NextMote: Next Generation Platforms for the Cyber-Physical Internet ==================================================================== CFP link: http://bit.ly/NextMote2016 The hardware for networked embedded systems and Internet of Things (IoT) has evolved significantly over the last decades. During this time two major classes of platforms have emerged for network gathering and processing of sensor data: firstly so called "motes" that are based on a micro controller and well suited for prototyping and testing hypotheses and solutions in the field, and secondly smartphones as ubiquitous and powerful yet mobile communications and computing platforms already adopted by wide population. However, as the number of devices and applications continue growing in numbers and reducing in size, novel, superior platforms should emerge. Let us call these new platforms "NextMote". What will they be, and how to design them? The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: + Modular, multi-core, multi-radio, and reconfigurable architectures for NextMote + Devices for novel communication: dense, sparse, and directional coverage + Pushing NextMote towards battery-less operation: energy harvesting, storage, and transfer + Pushing the size of NextMote towards "smart dust", ultra-thin, and stretchable + Unconventional form factors and packaging: wearable, on-body, printable NextMotes + Surviving extreme environments and leaving no trace: bio-degradable, digestible, disposable NextMotes + Robust and redundant design for NextMote health, reliability and self healing + Design, evaluation and profiling tools, and next level testbeds for NextMote + Hardware assisted security and privacy in resource constrained devices + Low-level software, firmware, operating systems for NextMote + Ultra low-cost hardware and deployments at large + Nature inspired (passive) mobility, NextMotes as seeds or pollen Submission Instructions ==================================================================== The short papers can be of a technical nature, presenting preliminary technical results, or position papers presenting a thought-provoking view regarding methods or applications.

Please feel free to distribute it to those who might be interested. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS RAMCOM 2016 The Second International Workshop on Recent Advances on Machine-to-Machine Communication http://hanalab.org/RAMCOM-16/ in conjunction with the 7th International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks and Technologies (ANT-2016) May 23-26, 2016, Madrid, Spain Call for Papers ============== Machine-to-machine communication is considered as the next technology revolution. It involves a huge number of autonomous smart machines, sharing information and collaborating together. M2M technology encompasses a large spectrum of applications ranging from e-health and biomedical sensor networks, to vehicular technology, smart grid and advanced metering infrastructures. As the voice revenue is in constant decrease, Telecom operators are energetically supporting this new technology as it is one of the most promising revenue-generating services. >From a standardization point of view, the M2M paradigm is still in its infancy. Both ETSI and 3GPP standards do not provide a seamless and unified M2M architecture, which is a sine qua none condition to the healthy and sustained development of the M2M market. Furthermore, the spreading of M2M technologies still hinge on fully providing a secure and fault-tolerance to M2M communications. Finally, in a single M2M network might coexist several radio technologies (Zigebee, bluetooth, UWB, WiFi and Femtocell...), which could dramatically impact M2M channels with fluctuation and noise. This workshop aims to gather researchers, engineers and practitioners both from academia and industry as well as end users who aim to present recent advances on Machine-to-Machine communications. Topics of Interest ================ The workshop proposes to address, but is not limited to, the following topics related to M2M communications, paradigms, frameworks and innovative applications: - M2M Standardization progress - Spectrum management for M2M - Green M2M communication - M2M system architecture and components - Security, trust and privacy of M2M devices and services - Mobility management for M2M - M2M and information centric networking - Reliability management for M2M - Medium access technologies and protocols for M2M communication - M2M traffic models - M2M and Smart Grid - M2M and vehicular technology - M2M and smart homes - Cloud support for M2M applications - New M2M applications, services, and business models - M2M testbeds and field trials - Mobile and distributed sensing - Decentralized algorithms for M2M control and communication Important Dates ================= Abstract deadline: January 16th, 2016 Full papers due: January 23 rd, 2016 Author notification: February 21 st, 2016 Camera ready due: March 21st , 2016 Papers Submissions Guidelines Submitted manuscripts should not exceed 6 pages in length including all figures, tables and references.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [ISCC] PerMoby 2016 - CFP Datum: Wed, 4 Nov 2015 13:18:59 +0100 Von: Alessio Vecchio <alessio.vecchio(a)unipi.it> An: ISCC(a)mama.ing.unibo.it ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The IEEE PerCom International Workshop on the Impact of Human Mobility on Pervasive Systems and Applications (PerMoby 2016) http://vecchio.iet.unipi.it/permoby March 14-18 2016, Sydney, Australia (the final date will be announced later) in conjunction with PerCom 2016 (http://www.percom.org) March 14-18 2016, Sydney, Australia ----------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS The key components of many pervasive systems and applications are already deployed in the form of ubiquitous commercial products carried by humans. 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 PUBLICATION AND INDEXING Papers are published in the combined proceedings of the IEEE PerCom Workshops and will appear on IEEExplore. According to Google’s metrics, the combined workshop proceedings are characterised by high values of h5 index and h5-median index, respectively equal to 27 and 36. This makes the IEEE PerCom Workshops one of the publication venues with higher visibility and impact in the area of pervasive computing. In the last years, the IEEE PerCom Workshops proceedings have always been indexed by Scopus. 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. At least one author of each accepted paper must register and attend the workshop to present the paper. There is no workshop-only registration. An oral presentation at the workshop is strictly required. Failure to present the paper at the workshop will result in the withdrawal of the paper from the proceedings as well as from IEEE Xplore. Paper submission will be via EDAS (further details will be available on the workshop website). IMPORTANT DATES - Submission deadline: November 27, 2015 - Notification of acceptance: January 2, 2016 - Camera ready: January 15, 2016 TECHNICAL PROGRAM CO-CHAIRS Raja Jurdak, Commonwealth Scientific Industrial and Research Organisation (CSIRO), Australia TECHNICAL PROGRAM COMMITTEE Valerio Arnaboldi, IIT-CNR, Italy Mikael Asplund, Linköping University, Sweden Gergely Biczók, Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Hungary Eleonora Borgia, IIT-CNR, Italy Guglielmo Cola, University of Pisa, Italy Anna Förster, University of Applied Sciences of Southern Switzerland, Switzerland Shin'ichi Konomi, The University of Tokyo, Japan Brent Lagesse, University of Washington at Bothell, USA Neal Lathia, University of Cambridge, UK Alan Marchiori, Bucknell University, USA Liam McNamara, Uppsala University, Sweden Paulo Mendes, University Lusofona, Portugal Waldir Moreira, University Lusofona, Portugal Luis Moreira-Matias, NEC Laboratories Europe, Germany Mirco Musolesi, University of Birmingham, UK Christian Poellabauer, University of Notre Dame, USA Alicia Rodriguez-Carrion, University Carlos III of Madrid Christian Rohner, Uppsala University, Sweden Bryce Thomas, Amazon, USA Salvatore Vanini, University of Applied Sciences of Southern Switzerland, Switzerland Kun Zhao, CSIRO, Australia STEERING COMMITTEE Daniele Puccinelli, University of Applied Sciences of Southern Switzerland (SUPSI) Alessio Vecchio, University of Pisa, Italy _______________________________________________ ISCC mailing list ISCC(a)mama.ing.unibo.it https://mama.ing.unibo.it/listinfo/iscc
