Paper Submission Process ------------------------ Submissions must be made by the deadline of Monday, May 23, 2016 23:59 UTC-11. The review process will be carried out in two phases and authors will have an opportunity to comment on the first-phase reviews. Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal, conference or workshop. Simultaneous submission of the same work is not allowed. Note that submitted papers cannot be withdrawn from the process after the first phase reviews are received by authors. Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be presented at the conference. Paper Format ------------ Submissions must be at most 12 pages in double-column ACM format (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/ proceedings-templates) including the bibliography and well-marked appendices. Submissions must be anonymized and avoid obvious self-references. Only PDF files will be accepted. Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits. Conflicts of Interest --------------------- The program co-chairs require cooperation from both authors and program committee members to prevent submissions from being evaluated by reviewers who have a conflict of interest. During the submission process, we will ask authors to identify members of the program committee with whom they have a conflict of interest. This includes anyone with close personal or professional relationship to any of the authors, such as close family members, people from the same department/group, and recent collaborators (e.g. collaborated on a joint paper in the last two years). It also includes anyone in a position of substantial influence on (or by) the a uthors, such as advisor or advisee (at any time in the past), line-of-management relationship, grant program manager, etc. In rare cases, we will allow conflict-of-interest designation due to personal or professional animosity. In such cases, we require that in addition to marking the conflict during submission, the authors contact the program co-chairs by email and explain the reason for this conflict. Program committee members who have a conflict of interest with a paper, including program co-chairs, will be excluded from evaluation and discussion of the paper. In the case of a program co-chair, the other co-chairs who do not have conflicts will be responsible for managing that paper. ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP - 2nd IEEE International Workshop on Internet of Things for Ambient Assisted Living (IoTAAL) - IEEE PIMRC 2016, Valencia, Spain - Sept 4, 2016 Datum: Mon, 18 Apr 2016 10:07:13 +0000 Von: CIPPITELLI ENEA <e.cippitelli(a)PM.UNIVPM.IT> Antwort an: CIPPITELLI ENEA <e.cippitelli(a)PM.UNIVPM.IT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS (apologies for multiple copies) 2nd IEEE International Workshop on Internet of Things for Ambient Assisted Living (IoTAAL) In conjunction with IEEE PIMRC 2016, Valencia, Spain - Sept 4, 2016. http://www.tlc.dii.univpm.it/iotaalms/iotaal2016/ MOTIVATION AND SCOPE Developed countries worldwide are facing a rapidly growing elderly population and a declining workforce, as a result of increased life expectancy and decreased birth rates. According to the United Nations, the elderly, defined as people over the age of 60, will make up 37% of the European population by 2050, from 20% in 2000. With ageing, probability increases of developing physical and cognitive impairments, requiring new and more effective ways to provide support and care. IoT technology may provide significant enhancement to quality of life for the elderly and, in general, people in need. Effective solutions for Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) require appropriate ICT algorithms, architectures and platforms, that cannot leave out of consideration the development of new and innovative approaches, particularly in the area of pervasive and mobile systems. The personal communication between elderly people, their environment, and relevant groups of care givers is an important aspect in AAL; such a need for a pervasive connectivity may leverage the IoT capabilities, to connect humans to smart objects, and put smart objects at the service of users’ needs. At the same time, the realm of Active and Assisted Living may provide a way to capitalize the vast amount of research and knowledge developed up to know in the manifold aspects and facets of IoT. This workshop aims at investigating the close relationship among IoT and AAL, to identify effective approaches towards an increased Quality of Life for the current and future ageing populations. Among the different technical issues that have to be considered when designing IoT solutions for AAL, some of them emerge as critical, i.e.: low power communication technologies and energy-saving design at different layers, and in a cross-layer approach; security and privacy issues, both at the single node/object level, and in a system/platform perspective; big data, analytics, and signal processing for AAL enabled by an IoT approach; cloud and mobile cloud architectures supporting AAL through IoT. IoTAAL will bring researchers from the IoT field and the AAL field together, to foster a better common understanding, to exchange visions and latest research results addressing IoT specialization for AAL, to discuss promising new technologies and to highlight open research challenges. TOPICS OF INTEREST IoTAAL will bring researchers from the IoT field and the AAL field together to foster a better common understanding by exchanging visions and latest research results in IoT specialization for AAL, and to discuss promising new technologies as well as open research challenges in this field. The topics of interest may include, but are not limited to: - Low-power communications in IoT for AAL - Security, privacy, and trustworthiness management in IoT for AAL - Information processing for AAL communications - Interoperability among IoT and AAL platforms - Cloud and Mobile Cloud for AAL - Algorithms and techniques for IoT enabled AAL data analytics - Big data management in AAL - IoT communications for AAL and Enhanced Living Environments - Mobile solutions for AAL - IoT enabled signal acquisition, analysis, and processing for activity identification and recognition in AAL - Smart Ad Hoc Networks and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) for AAL - Distributed sensing and alarming technologies for AAL - IoT devices (smart objects) and cyber-physical systems for AAL - E-healthcare, telemedicine and tele-monitoring through IoT in AAL systems - AAL networks and systems architectures - IoT applications, systems, and testbeds for AAL - Standardization activities of IoT for AAL - Future directions in IoT for AAL IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission deadline: April 29, 2016 Acceptance/rejection announcement: June 10, 2016 Final workshop papers due: July 1, 2016 SUBMISSION OF PAPERS All submissions should be written in English with a maximum paper length of six (6) printed pages (10-point font) including figures without incurring additional page charges (maximum 1 additional page with over length page charge if accepted).
