-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP (deadline extended): Elsevier PHYCOM S.I. on D2D-based Offloading Techniques Datum: Tue, 2 Jun 2015 04:36:49 -0400 Von: Vincenzo Mancuso <vincenzo.mancuso(a)IEEE.ORG> Antwort an: Vincenzo Mancuso <vincenzo.mancuso(a)IEEE.ORG> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Submission deadline extended: July 6th, 2015 CFP webpage http://www.journals.elsevier.com/physical-communication/call-for-papers/spe… Scope of the Special Issue The Device-to-Device (D2D) communication paradigm was first proposed for cellular relaying, although it has been later proposed for a large variety of applications, such as opportunistic routing, peer-to-peer, content distribution, and cellular offloading. Indeed, the recent emergence of the D2D paradigm paves the way towards improving the performance of cellular networks by means of novel opportunistic architectures, e.g, based on LTE-Direct and WiFi-Direct technologies. This special issue will focus on theoretical research contributions presenting new techniques, concepts or analyses, and applied contributions reporting on experiences and experiments with D2D-based offloading systems. In particular, within the general framework of D2D communications and cellular offloading, we solicit manuscripts that present original and previously unpublished work on topics including, but not limited to, the following: PHY/MAC architectures; Opportunistic offloading; Opportunistic medium access; Spectrum management; Resource optimization; Energy minimization; Security and privacy; Interference management; Coding and decoding methods; MAC protocol coexistence; Scheduling; HetNets; M2M communications; Vehicular communications; Content distribution architectures. Guest Editors Dr. Vincenzo Mancuso IMDEA Networks Institute vincenzo.mancuso(a)imdea.org Dr. Omer Gurewitz Ben Gurion University of the Negev gurewitz(a)cse.bgu.ac.il Submission Format and Guideline All submitted papers must be clearly written in excellent English and contain only original work, which has not been published by or is currently under review for any other journal or conference. Papers must not exceed 25 pages (one-column, at least 11pt fonts) including figures, tables, and references. A detailed submission guideline is available as “Guide to Authors” at: http://www.elsevier.com/journals/physical-communication/1874-4907/guide-for… All manuscripts and any supplementary material should be submitted through Elsevier Editorial System (EES). The authors must select as “D2D OFFLOADING” when they reach the “Article Type” step in the submission process. The EES website is located at: http://ees.elsevier.com/phycom All papers will be peer-reviewed by three independent reviewers. Requests for additional information should be addressed to the guest editors. ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Elsevier COMCOM Special Issue - Mobile Traffic Analytics

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Elsevier COMCOM Special Issue - Mobile Traffic Analytics Datum: Mon, 1 Jun 2015 08:08:52 +0200 Von: Marco Fiore <fiore(a)TLC.POLITO.IT> Antwort an: Marco Fiore <fiore(a)TLC.POLITO.IT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Computer Communications http://www.journals.elsevier.com/computer-communications/ Special Issue on Mobile Traffic Analytics --------------------------------------------------------------------------- + Scope Mobile traffic analytics enable the study of the movement and service consumption of mobile subscribers at large scales. The rise of mobile traffic analytics is fostered by an unprecedented availability of data, collected by mobile operators through probes deployed at the access and core networks, or gathered by dedicated research initiatives via monitoring apps running on users’ smartphones. Both approaches can harvest information about large populations, from hundreds to millions individuals, over long time periods, from weeks to years. The richness of mobile traffic datasets is paramount to research in a wide range of disciplines, including, e.g., sociology, transportations, statistical physics, epidemiology, and – of course – networking. However, several technical challenges need to be tackled to release the full potential of such data sources, including the assessment of statistical robustness of inferred knowledge, the overcoming of scalability issues, and the consideration for data access limitations imposed by privacy regulations that tend to reduce data usability. The aim of this Special Issue is to gather contributions presenting state-of-the-art research dealing with all facets of mobile traffic analytics. We expect submissions to present quantitative evaluations carried out on substantial real-world datasets of mobile traffic. Here, we intend the term "traffic" in its wider acceptation. We thus invite works on data collected via, e.g., Call Detail Records (CDR), access (RNC) and core (MSC, GGSN/PGW) network probes, or smartphone monitoring apps; data can be limited to mobility patterns, it can concern traditional user-to-user mobile services (i.e., calling and texting), it can focus on the mobile data traffic demand (at any granularity, from throughput volumes to the precise services and protocols employed), or it can contain any combination of such information types. We especially encourage the submission of interdisciplinary research works at the interface between networking and disciplines such as those mentioned above. Special attention will be deserved to findings and results that have practical applications in terms of technological innovation, sustainable development, data and network management, and mobile services. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Original (open) mobile traffic datasets - Preparation and management of mobile traffic datasets - Generative models for synthetic mobile traffic datasets - Algorithms, structures, and (visual) tools for mobile traffic analysis - Privacy and security issues in mobile traffic analysis, and countermeasures - Inference of social features and mobility patterns from mobile traffic - Profiling of mobile device and mobile users from mobile traffic - Characterization of the mobile subscriber demand from mobile traffic - Comparison of mobile traffic features across cities, regions, and countries - Mobile traffic analytics for Intelligent Transportation Systems - Mobile traffic analytics for cognitive and anticipatory networking - Mobile access and core network enhancements from mobile traffic analysis - Mobile traffic analytics for device-to-device and opportunistic communication - Mobile service marketing strategies from mobile traffic analysis + Schedule Manuscript submission deadline: October 16, 2015 First notification: January 22, 2016 Submission of revised paper: March 11, 2016 Notification of acceptance: April 16, 2016 + Guest Editors Marco Fiore, CNR – IEIIT (marco.fiore(a)ieiit.cnr.it) M.
