-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Deadline approaching: Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks Journal [IF=1.94] -- SI on "Smart Wireless Access Networks and Systems For Smart Cities" Datum: Mon, 20 Jul 2015 18:04:13 +0200 Von: Giuseppe Ruggeri <giuseppe.ruggeri(a)UNIRC.IT> Antwort an: Giuseppe Ruggeri <giuseppe.ruggeri(a)UNIRC.IT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear All, please find below a call for papers for the Special Issue of the Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks Journal on " Smart Wireless Access Networks and Systems For Smart Cities". Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. -------------------------- Call for Papers for the Special Issue of the Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks Journal on "Smart Wireless Access Networks and Systems For Smart Cities" http://www.journals.elsevier.com/ad-hoc-networks/call-for-papers/special-iss ue-on-smart-wireless-access-networks-and-systems/ AIMS AND SCOPE ---------------------------- The main goals of a smart-city are to improve sustainability and livability, to ease city government and organization, and to increase services to the citizens. The primary role of ICT in enabling this vision is to keep the decision makers, the stake holders and the citizen constantly updated with fresh information collected around the city. To accomplish this task, next generation cities, will be populated with billions of heterogeneous devices ranging from tiny communicating objects (e.g., actuators, sensors, tags) able to interact with the surrounding environment and remote systems, to high-end nodes (e.g., data centers, workstations) capable of complex operations and to process a huge amount of information. In this futuristic scenario a very special role is played by citizens with their smartphones, tablets and portable devices. They are constantly connected with whatever surroundings them and they are formidable information consumers. Their role however does not end here. Smartphones, in fact, are very powerful devices with constantly increasing processing, communication and sensing capabilities and very recently, a large plethora of proposals have emerged to leverage those capabilities to contribute to the information production process. For instance, citizens roaming around the city may be considered as mobile probes which, by making uses of cyber and physical data accessible by smartphones, can analyze the situation and produce reports to the community. Furthermore smarthphones can actively contributing in creating the communication infrastructure by forwarding data coming from surrounding devices. All in all, cities are going to became a new complex ecosystem which has the potentiality to offer many amazing feature and support innovative application. Unfortunately, fully exploiting, managing and accessing that ecosystem are still far to be fully viable and their fulfillment surely poses a formidable challenge. This Special Issue aims to solicit contributions on novel algorithms, methodological studies and experimentation on how to address the formerly highlighted issues. Specifically on how devise a city-wide networking infrastructure capable to efficiently guarantee communication in the new envisaged ecosystem, to manage the complexity of heterogeneous devices and access technologies, and to guarantee robust, ubiquitous, and secure connectivity over the urban environments. At the same time, beside studying the issues of the city-wide infrastructure deployment, the workshop aims to investigate the potential provided by the end-users devices (e.g. smartphones, tablets) when augmented in order to turn them into active components of the smart-city ecosystem, instead of mere connection end-points. Such a potential includes the possibility to extend the network access in a pervasive way, to provide ubiquitous computing services, and to favor the emergence of "collective intelligence behaviors" through collaboration and direct communication among devices. In lines with such objectives, the topics of interests include -but it is not limited to- the following issues: . Models of network components' interactions on a smart-city . Novel communication protocols for M2M Communications; . Device-2-Device Communications (D2D); . IoT architectures and middlewares; . Self-organizing wireless networks for pervasive urban access; . Network virtualization for heterogeneous wireless networks; . Systems for distributed Sensing and Control in Smart Cities; . Smartphone-based sensing systems, tools, applications in Smart City environments . Crowd sourcing in smart cities; . Dynamic trust management models for Smartphone based networks and applications; . Cooperation incentive models for Smartphone based networks and applications; . Reliability, Security, Privacy and Trust in smart cities ecosystems; . Business model to promote users collaboration and resources sharing in smart cities ecosystems; . Testbed on the feasibility of Smartphone based networks and interaction with Cyber physical Systems; . Applications, Business, Standards, and Social Issue; . Security models to promote Smartphone collaboration and resources sharing; . Cooperative systems of Smart Objects supporting Wireless Networks Interoperability and Management IMPORTANT DATES --------------------------------- Manuscript submission: 1st August 2015 Notification of acceptance: 1st February 2016 Final Manuscript Due: 1st March 2016 Online Publication: 1st May 2016 SUBMISSION GUIDELINES ------------------------------------- All submissions have to be prepared according to the Guide for Authors as published in the Journal website at http://www.journals.elsevier.com/ad-hoc-networks.

Pisa, Italy. T r a c k R S T RELIABLE SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGIES AND COMMUNICATION MIDDLEWARE http://rstsac.uc3m.es A selection of best submissions will be invited to a SI of the journal FUTURE GENERATION COMPUTER SYSTEMS (Elsevier, IF=2.786 in 2014) C a l l f o r P a p e r s -------------------------------------------------------------------- In recent years, the world of high-end parallel and distributed computing systems and applications (in their continuous evolving declinations in the form of high-performance computing, grid computing and cloud) is generally paying increasing attention to the problems related to quality of service, determination of the temporal behavior and response of the proposed software platform solutions, interactivity, and performance of the communication tools. In the modern computation centers, traditional distributed applications may coexist with others that become more and more time-sensitive (cross-border surveillance and object tracking, net gaming, remote video streaming, etc.), and this tends to happen in a virtualized infrastructure. The design of distributed reliable systems must take into account the selection and evaluation of interaction models, software technology choices, temporal behaviour, resource efficiency, performance, scalability, and coordination. In addition, this track calls for dynamic middleware solutions capable of taking context-aware resource management decisions in order to enforce the most appropriate quality levels depending on application SLAs and overall (possibly clustered) visibility of resource status. These solutions are particularly challenging when dealing with large-scale open deployment environments and their associated scalability issues. Novel and relevant application domains push for evolution and disruptive research in this field; only to mention a few, middleware solutions for datacenter resource management optimization for quality-aware online stream processing of big data flows, energy-aware middleware for resource management in smart city/smart grid deployment environments, middleware for cloud-hosted cyber-physical systems with strict requirements on latency and reliability. Topics include (but are not limited to) the challenging issues in the design of reliable and resource efficient middleware: -Reliable and time-sensitive distribution models -Performance of distributed applications -Cloud computing advances for cyber-physical systems and mobile cloud computing. -Middleware for the efficient integration of cyber-physical systems and the cloud -Reactive stream processing and on line processing of big data flows -Efficient integration with the run-time support: operating systems and virtualization technology -QoS-aware middleware for datacenter resource management -Interaction models (e.g., publish-subscribe or event-based). -Programming models and languages -Efficient and context-aware server-side management of smart city data -Scalability in city-wide deployment scenarios IMPORTANT DATES Full paper submission: September 11, 2015.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: 2nd International Conference on Safety and Security in Internet of Things (SaSeIoT 2015) Datum: Sat, 18 Jul 2015 08:18:25 -0400 Von: Scott Fowler <scott_fowler(a)YMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Scott Fowler <scott_fowler(a)YMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG *** Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP *** ==================================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS 2nd International Conference on Safety and Security in Internet of Things (SaSeIoT 2015) http://securityiot.eu/2015/show/home 26-27 October, 2015 – Rome, Italy ==================================================================================== SCOPE The infrastructure of large cities is becoming increasingly vulnerable to natural and man-made disasters. Complex Information Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructures, critical dependencies and unforeseen cascading effects can worsen single hazard events to a threatening crisis of several entire infrastructures. With the dense population in urban areas along with the critical dependency on infrastructures, such crises become a serious threat to the safety and security of citizens and industries. When the "unforeseen" happens, public security comes to its limits Whether cyber, natural or industrial disasters - effective risk management must be a continuous process that recognizes new threats and opportunities, in particular in relation to new technological evolutions. Internet of Things (IoT) will have an enormous impact on our future infrastructures. In the context of safety and security this is at the same time a challenge (How can we design secure and resilient IoT infrastructures?) and an opportunity (How can we use IoT for better safety and security?). In particular in urban environments, the increasing deployments of IoT technologies and the rapid proliferation of sensored and automated cities are opening up new avenues of threats and opportunities toward public safety and security. Although we have seen various deployments of diverse IoT systems, our understanding of these systems and their implications in the context of safety and security has just scratched the surface. The Second International Conference on Safety and Security with IoT (SaSeIoT 2015) aims to explore these dynamics within the scope of IoT in the context of Safety and Security. The conference solicits original and inspiring research contributions from technology experts, researchers, designers, practitioners in academia, authorities and industry, and promises to offer a highly interactive forum to share knowledge, experiences, and best practices primarily in the following main application oriented themes: • Ensuring the resilience and security of IoT dependent infrastructures The topics of interest in this theme include, but are not limited to: - Models, methods and tools for testing IoT infrastructures - Design of resilient IoT infrastructures - Detection, prevention, response and mitigation of cyber threats to IoT - Trust and identity management in IoT - Security protocols in IoT - Risk analysis and management for IoT infrastructures - Threat modeling in IoT • Using IoT for crisis and emergency management The topics of interest in this theme include, but are not limited to: - IoT for threat and hazard detection - IoT for situation-awareness - IoT for crisis and emergency response - IoT for command & control - IoT for emergency forces • Privacy in IoT • Security and IoT Cloudification PAPER SUBMISSION Regular Papers should be up to 12 pages in length. Short papers up to 4 pages in length. Complete formatting and submission instructions can be found on the conference web site at: http://securityiot.eu/2015/show/initial-submission Papers will be judged on originality, correctness, clarity and relevance. Submitted papers must be original work and should not be under consideration for another conference or journal.Submission of the paper implies agreement of the author(s) to attend the conference and present the paper if accepted. PUBLICATION All accepted papers will be published by Springer. The proceedings will be available both in book form and via the SpringerLink digital library. SPECIAL ISSUE of INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL A special issue of ACM/Springer Mobile Networks and Applications http://www.springer.com/engineering/signals/journal/11036 will be organized after the conference containing selected best papers of the conference.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] DUE: Aug 1 - IEEE Computer SI on "Communications and Privacy under Surveillance" Datum: Fri, 17 Jul 2015 08:32:39 +0800 Von: Dr. Ying-Dar Lin <ydlin(a)CS.NCTU.EDU.TW> Antwort an: Dr. Ying-Dar Lin <ydlin(a)CS.NCTU.EDU.TW> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG IEEE Computer Special Issue on “Communications and Privacy under Surveillance” Full paper submission deadline: 1 August 2015 Publication date: March 2016 Computer plans a March 2016 special issue on communications and privacy under surveillance. Today, our daily communications are subject to surveillance by government agencies and private hackers. The purpose could be legal crime investigation or terrorism prevention, or it could be illegal privacy infringement or theft of confidential information. There are often gray areas between legal and illegal surveillance. Despite the controversy, communications-surveillance technologies continue to evolve. However, these sensitive technologies have seldom been reported in the scientific literature, as developers have largely subscribed to the idea of “security by obscurity.” Now, though, many realize that surveillance technologies could be improved much faster via “security by clarity,” with the technologies examined by both good and bad guys. This could also reduce the gray area between legal and illegal activities, thereby protecting privacy. This special issue will foster dissemination of the latest communications and privacy surveillance methodologies. The guest editors’ aim is to publish high-quality articles presenting the state of the art in lawful, mass, wireless, and backdoor surveillance. Appropriate topics include, but are not limited to, the following: a.. Lawful surveillance with RFC 3924 b.. Mass and global surveillance programs such as Five Eyes, PRISM, XKeyscore, Tempora, Muscular, and Royal Concierge c.. Wireless surveillance via 4G/3G/GSM, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth with IMSI Catcher, Femtocatch, and Bluejacking d.. Backdoor surveillance by malware on servers, desktops, laptops, smartphones, and tablets via server and browser exploits, repackaged applications, repackaged documents, and advanced persistent threats e.. Surveillance and analysis tools such as Boundless Informant, XKeyscore, Tempora, Tracfin, Visitor Location Registers, A5/1, and Tor f.. Big data analysis on communications-surveillance data, metadata, and multimedia g.. Security and privacy by obscurity vs. security and privacy by clarity h.. Analytical and simulation models of communications and privacy surveillance i.. Network and traffic forensics for surveillance j.. Censorship analysis, detection, and circumvention k.. Policies and regulations regarding legal and illegal surveillance l.. Experimental studies of and testbeds for communications and privacy surveillance Only submissions that describe previously unpublished, original, state-of-the-art research that are not currently under review by a conference or journal will be considered. Articles should be understandable by a broad audience of computing science and engineering professionals, avoiding a focus on theory, mathematics, jargon, and abstract concepts. All manuscripts are subject to peer review on both technical merit and relevance to Computer’s readership. Accepted papers will be professionally edited for content and style. Questions? Please direct any correspondence before submission to the guest editors: a.. Ying-Dar Lin, National Chiao Tung University, Taiwan (ydlin(a)cs.nctu.edu.tw) b..

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] 3 days left: IEEE MASS 2015 Workshop on CellulAR Traffic Offloading to Opportunistic Networks (CARTOON) Datum: Tue, 14 Jul 2015 21:22:46 -0400 Von: Marcelo Menezes de Carvalho <carvalho(a)IEEE.ORG> Antwort an: Marcelo Menezes de Carvalho <carvalho(a)IEEE.ORG> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG ================================================================================ Workshop on CellulAR Traffic Offloading to Opportunistic Networks (CARTOON) Dallas, USA October 19, 2015 Co-located with the 12th IEEE International Conference on Mobile Ad Hoc and Sensor Systems (MASS) 2015 http://www.ene.unb.br/cartoon/ ================================================================================ Scope: The emergence of powerful handheld devices — coupled with the proliferation of cloud-based applications and an ever-increasing dominance of multimedia content in today’s Internet traffic — have ignited an unprecedented growth of mobile data traffic in recent years. Such a fact has posed significant challenges to mobile network operators, who are now pressed to maintain satisfactory quality of service under exponential traffic demands. To complicate matters, it has also become apparent that traditional approaches to expand network capacity may not suffice (e.g., new spectrum licenses and/or technology upgrades), and they can soon be outpaced by aforementioned traffic growth. Because of that, new ideas to cope with the so-called “data crunch problem” have been sought, and mobile data offloading has appeared as one of the most promising solutions: the routing of macrocellular traffic through alternative networks. Although mobile data offloading is generally th! ought in terms of WiFi hotspots or femtocell networks, recent developments in the arena of Opportunistic Networks — one of the most interesting evolutions of traditional mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) — have paved the way for researchers from both cellular and MANET backgrounds to work together in the development of new network paradigms, architectures, and techniques that can leverage the potentials of both “worlds” to promote and enhance mobile data offloading. Motivated by this vision, we invite researchers, engineers, and practitioners from academia, industry, and the public sector to submit original contributions to the Workshop on CellulAR Traffic Offloading to Opportunistic Networks (CARTOON) 2015 in any of the following topics (but not limited to): + WiFi offloading + Hybrid operation in licensed / unlicensed spectrum + Authorized Shared Access / Licensed Shared Access + Incentive mechanisms for offloading to opportunistic networks + New architectures and paradigms for offloading using opportunistic networks + PHY and MAC-layer issues + Routing protocols for data offloading through opportunistic networks + Resource allocation and management + Game-theoretical studies for mobile data offloading + Multi-radio access technologies (RAT) co-existence and support for data offloading + Content and data dissemination, replication, and caching strategies + Mobility models + Data flow management and load balance + Machine-to-machine support in opportunistic networks + Internet of Things in opportunistic networks + Cooperative and non-cooperative approaches for mobile data offloading + Backhaul support for mobile data offloading with opportunistic networking + Network measurements and testbeds + Capacity sharing strategies + Traffic engineering and quality of service for mobile data offloading + Dynamic spectrum sharing and access for data offloading to opportunistic networks + Performance evaluation, simulation studies + Capacity studies and analytical modeling + Self-organization, self-configuration, self-healing mechanisms + Multimedia data offloading through opportunistic networks + Power saving mechanisms + Security, privacy, authentication issues Important Dates: Submission Deadline: July 17 Notification of Acceptance: August 02 Camera-ready papers: August 07 Submission Guidelines Authors are invited to submit technical papers presenting original, unpublished research, not currently under review elsewhere. All submissions should be written in English with a maximum length of 6 single-spaced, double-column pages using 10pt size fonts on 8.5 x 11 inch pages, with side-margin at least 1 inch, including all figures, tables, and references. Authors must use the Manuscript Templates for IEEE Conference Procedings. Authors can get additional 2 pages at US$ 150/page. All paper submission will be electronic, in PDF format. Accepted papers will appear in the workshop proceedings published by IEEE and will be presented at the conference. For all papers, IEEE reserves the right to exclude the paper from distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the conference.
