According to a recent survey published by comScore, the percentage of web traffic coming from mobile devices has surpassed 60% in 2014. To serve users from all over the world, a number of global (or planet-scale) mobile systems and applications have been launched. Several new technologies, such as mobile cloud networking, wearable computing, mobile payment, high-throughput wireless data delivery, and location-based services, have received great attentions. In the meanwhile, by attracting more than one billion users worldwide, online social networks (OSNs) provide a new venue of innovation with many challenging and practical research problems. In particular, more and more social network systems have expanded to mobile platforms. Not to mention those large-scale mobile-centric social networking systems, such as WhatsApp, WeChat, Momo, Snapchat, Skout and Swarm. For both of the academia and industry, how to utilize the emerging mobile technologies to help people's online social interactions has become a viable trend. The 8th International Workshop on Hot Topics in Planet-scale mObile computing and online Social neTworking (HotPOST 2016) is organized with the goal to bring researchers working on the intersection of mobile and OSN together to present and discuss their latest research results and ideas, thereby promoting the development and evolution of this area. All submissions on mobile platforms and OSNs related to architecture, design, implementation, simulation, modeling, analysis and measurement are welcomed. We highly encourage novel and innovative previously unpublished work, even reporting work in early stage. Topics include but are not limited to: - Mobile-centric social network services - Location-based social networks (LBSNs) - Distributed mobile systems and applications - Mobile-centric Internet architecture - Mobile cloud networking - Online advertising - Measurement of mobile systems and applications - User behavior analysis and modeling in mobile social applications - Architecture of mobile social systems - Security and privacy in mobile systems - Reputation, security, incentives, and economics in mobile systems - Cyber-physical systems - Wearable computing - Mobile payment - Mobile P2P systems Authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by another conference or journal, addressing state-of-the-art research and development in all areas of mobile/OSN.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CfP ACM MobiCom 2016 Datum: Tue, 9 Feb 2016 09:02:43 +0100 Von: Falko Dressler <dressler(a)CCS-LABS.ORG> Antwort an: Falko Dressler <dressler(a)CCS-LABS.ORG> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG ACM MobiCom 2016 Call for Papers http://www.sigmobile.org/mobicom/2016/ As the premier conference on mobile computing and wireless networking, MobiCom 2016 solicits full papers (limited to 12 pages excluding references) that focus on the theory, system, practice, and challenge of providing users with an enriched and ubiquitous mobile or wireless experience. At its core, we solicit papers that address important challenges in access/communication, energy, computing, security and user experience as it applies to wireless networking and mobile computing. We strongly encourage papers on emerging mobile/wireless topics including but not limited to next generation (5G) mobile networks, Internet of things, machine-to-machine communications, visible light communication, novel access paradigms/modalities, smart devices, wearable computing, and mobile data science/analysis. We also invite papers that integrate mobile/wireless research with innovations in cloud computing and software defined networking. Successful papers will address real research challenges through theoretical analysis, novel system design, and/or real-world measurement and deployment of mobile networks, systems and applications. The program committee will evaluate each paper using metrics that are appropriate for the topic area. The accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. All submissions must describe original research, not published or currently under review for another conference or journal. In addition to regular, full research papers, the conference also invites submission in the following categories: Experience Papers The conference invites submission of short papers (limited to 8 pages excluding references) that present extensive experiences with implementation, deployment, and operations of mobile systems and wireless networks. Desirable papers are expected to contain real data as well as description of the practical lessons learned. The experiences papers will be evaluated by the MobiCom technical program committee, primarily for (i) the richness of their data or experiences, (ii) inferences drawn or lessons learned, (iii) discovery of new problems, and (iv) their impact on current and future mobile systems and wireless networks as well as on the society. Note that a paper that builds a system and presents a limited experimental evaluation is not suitable as an experience paper. The selected experience papers will be a part of the MobiCom technical program and will be published in the conference proceedings. They should be submitted using the same submission procedure adopted for the f! ull papers. The title of these papers must have the prefix "Experience:". Challenge Papers The conference also invites submission of short papers (limited to 8 pages excluding references) that present revolutionary new ideas or that challenge existing assumptions prevalent among the wireless research community. These "challenges papers" should provide stimulating ideas or visions that may open up exciting avenues and/or influence the direction of future research. Descriptions of new products or evolution of existing work are not appropriate topics for papers in this category. While an exhaustive evaluation of the proposed ideas is not necessary, insight and in-depth understanding of the issues is expected. Challenges papers will be reviewed by the MobiCom technical program committee and will be part of the technical program and published in the MobiCom proceedings. They should be submitted using the same submission procedure adopted for the full papers. The title of these papers must have the prefix "Challenge:". Paper Submission Instructions All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Authors should prepare a PDF version of their full paper. Any papers that do not adhere to the following guidelines will be immediately rejected: • Full papers - Maximum of 12 pages excluding references (i.e. submissions may include as many additional pages as needed for references) • Experience/Challenge Papers - Maximum of 8 pages excluding references • Font size no smaller than 10 points • Double column format with each column having dimensions 9.25 inches x 3.33 inches, a space of 0.33 inches between the two columns, and with no more than 55 lines of text per column • Fit properly on US letter-sized paper (8.5 inches x 11 inches) • Authors' names must not appear anywhere in the paper or in the PDF file.

In the past, however, the service to be supported by the network has been considered as something fairly static and simple: unicasting, broadcasting, perhaps geocasting. The state of the art in services, however, moves toward dynamically creating services as necessary, on-demand (consider Network Function Virtualization as an example). For such dynamically, on-the-fly created services, support in fixed networks by dynamically creating infrastructures has received some attention in the recent past. The idea of executing such dynamically configured, dynamically distributed services on a wireless, mobile infrastructure has, however, not been considered in the literature so far. The challenges here are hard: can we reconfigure a wireless network to support a given service layout, e.g., by on-the-fly creation of distributed antenna arrays to span large distances? Can we assign roles of multiple services to different nodes, taking both service and application needs explicitly into account? We welcome submission on the joint creating and management of both the infrastructure and the service, not necessarily limited to wireless or mobile ad hoc networks. Example topics include, but are not limited to: • Reconfigurable services in reconfigurable wireless and mobile networks • Wireless SDN • Distributed applications in mobile networks, e.g., signal processing • Reuse of application building blocks • Role assignment, component placement and scaling, substrate reconfiguration • Multi-tenancy of wireless domains • Network Function Virtualisation applied to wireless processing The workshop is colocated with Mobihoc 2016 ( http://www.sigmobile.org/mobihoc/2016/), which takes place in Paderborn, Germany. Important Dates • Submission deadline: 15 of March, 2016 • Authors notification: 1st of May, 2016 • Camera-ready due: 1st of June, 2016 • Workshop date: July 5th, 2016 Submission instructions will be posted on the workshop’s web page.

Standardization is mostly complete with voluntary roll-out starting in Japan. Current generation is based mostly on broadcasting of beacons. As we go along, this first generation of vehicular networking technologies will face challenges in addressing the needs of connected vehicles and new applications that would go beyond the present day systems. One such area is automated vehicles where the communication needs will be twofold: One for cooperatively perceiving the environment, and the other for collectively deciding on maneuvers. Such connected autonomous vehicles would not only require reliable group communications, but also would rely on group intelligence where they may need to coordinate their actions (as a vehicular cloud) based on some predefined rules. Another emerging area is the view of cars as sensor platforms that monitor the external environment (traffic, pollution, etc) as well as the internal CAN bus and cabin activities. In this view the cars become part of an IOV (Internet of Vehicles) and provide useful information not only to other cars, but also to stakeholders in the Internet (e.g., automakers, insurance companies, communications services providers, content providers, etc). In this view, one can exploit the information capture, processing and communication resources not only of running cars, but also of parked cars in the context of smart cities (e.g., using vehicles as data capture, storage and delivery instruments). The information collected will be voluminous (big data) and will offer important insight, through machine learning, on vehicular grid and smart city operations. This expanded view will open up new opportunities as well as new challenges in managing the highly amorphous vehicular network structure and blending the “Internet of Vehicles” into the “Vehicles of the Internet” by making vehicular resources an integral part of the existing infrastructure. In other words, the Vehicular cloud becomes an entity of its own right and cooperates with edge clouds and Internet clouds. Potential topics of the Workshop are: - Vehicular clouds, group intelligence - Software defined networking and virtualization for vehicles - Heterogeneous/hybrid networking techniques for next generation vehicular communications - Collective perception techniques for automated vehicles - Collective decision making for automated vehicles - Services utilizing resources of vehicles - Security for connected vehicles - Positioning and addressing of vehicles - Use of big data and cloud for automated vehicles - IoV in the general context of IoT - Mining big vehicular data for smart city services - Use of cellular systems for vehicular networking Paper Submission Guidelines --------------------------- Submitted technical papers must be no longer than 6 pages including all figures, tables and references. The submitted paper must be formatted according to the guidelines of ACM Double Column Format submitted electronically in printable pdf form. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published by the ACM. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and attend the workshop to present the work.
