-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: MT-CPS'17: 2nd International Workshop on Monitoring and Testing of Cyber-Physical Systems Datum: Tue, 24 Jan 2017 12:34:22 +0100 Von: Ayoub Nouri <ayoub.nouri(a)UNIV-GRENOBLE-ALPES.FR> Antwort an: Mailing List der GI FG 3.3.1 "Kommunikation und Verteilte Systeme" <KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE> An: KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE MT-CPS'17 2nd International Workshop on Monitoring and Testing of Cyber-Physical Systems Pittsburgh, PA, USA 21st April 2017 Co-located with CPS Week https://sites.google.com/asu.edu/mt-cps-2017 <https://sites.google.com/asu.edu/mt-cps-2017> <https://sites.google.com/asu.edu/mt-cps-2017> DESCRIPTION Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are integrations of heterogeneous collaborative entities that interact between themselves and with their physical environment. CPS exhibit complex and unpredictable behaviors, thus making their correctness and robustness analysis a challenging task. In order to address their full complexity, there is an emergent need for formal, yet efficient and scalable methods for the verification and analysis of CPS. Light-weight verification techniques, such as monitoring and testing, achieve both rigor and efficiency by enabling the evaluation of systems according to the properties of their individual behaviours. The MT CPS workshop aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners interested in the problems of detecting, testing, measuring and extracting qualitative and quantitative properties from CPS behaviors. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): · Specification languages for monitoring and testing · Runtime verification and monitoring · Black-box and white-box testing · Measuring and statistical information gathering · Simulation-based verification and parameter synthesis · Diagnostics, error localization and repair · Combination of static and dynamic analyses · Applications and case studies WORKSHOP FORMAT MT CPS workshop is intended to be a forum for exchanging the latest scientific trends between researchers and practitioners interested in the field of light-weight verification and analysis of CPS. As a consequence, the workshop will *NOT* have formal proceedings. We encourage submission of abstracts that address any of the aforementioned topics of interest and cover recently published results as well as work in progress.

The broad popularity and diffusion of innovative services and applications tailored at mobile users who are both service consumers and big data producers is also raising challenging research issues that require us to rethink available network and services technology solutions to meet the emerging needs of a broader and ever growing user base and voluminous network traffic. Ubiquitous computing and communications has drawn significant interests from both academia and industry and continues to attract tremendous research efforts due to its promising new business opportunity in information technology and engineering. At their core, all models of ubiquitous computing share a vision of small, inexpensive, robust networked processing devices, distributed at all scales throughout everyday life and generally turned to distinctly common-place ends. This special issue discusses emerging trends on large-scale ubiquitous context analysis, management and value recreation. We are also interested in papers looking at service architectures, protocols, and standards for ubiquitous computing along with the related fundamental issues. Finally, we will explore works on novel applications and real-world services (and practices as well). *Subject Coverage* Topics include, but are not limited to, the following: - Cloud computing support for ubiquitous services and applications - Data center architectures and protocols for ubiquitous data - Green communications models, architectures, and networking solutions considering edge cloud and mobile cloud - Ubiquitous self-* networks, services and applications - Content distribution networks for ubiquitous applications - Information centric networks - Social networking solutions for pervasive and mobile environments - Vehicular communications and vehicular ad-hoc networks - Wireless-enabled peer to peer services and applications - Internet of Things and M2M communications - Ubiquitous sensing (e.g. participatory sensing and crowd sourcing) - Context-aware middleware design, services and applications - Security, trust, and privacy in wireless/mobile communications - Cognitive radio networks (CRN) protocols, algorithms and implementation issues in ubiquitous context - UAV networks, delay-tolerant wireless networks - Software-defined wireless networks in ubiquitous context - Network function virtualisation in wireless networks *Notes for Prospective Authors* Submitted papers should not have been previously published nor be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CfP: Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks SI on Advances in Wireless Communication and Networking for Cooperating Autonomous Systems

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CfP: Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks SI on Advances in Wireless Communication and Networking for Cooperating Autonomous Systems Datum: Wed, 18 Jan 2017 10:28:53 -0500 Von: Enrico Natalizio <Ienatalizio(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Enrico Natalizio <Ienatalizio(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Integration of embedded computing, sensing and wireless communication that has fueled the growth of the Internet of Things (IoT), will also lead to the design and exploitation of a new generation of cooperating autonomous systems. The components of such systems will be high-end devices, such as autonomous machines, UAVs and robots, self-driving cars, virtual reality-based systems. Such systems pose new challenges to wireless networks, which have been traditionally designed for mobile broadband applications. Most current scenarios for device-to-device communications are based on the design and exploitation of simple sensor-actuator systems, and their architecture remains dependent on computation and battery limitations. Such constraints are not applicable for resource-rich advanced systems that must always perform at the highest levels of reliability, and may be tasked with demanding communication requirements for specialized missions and tasks, such as road-safety, disaster preventio n and management or focussed monitoring of sensitive sites and infrastructures. In fact, the interactions needed within such complex and comparatively large-scale systems will demand extremely low latency, significantly higher reliability, uniform and ubiquitous network availability, more power efficient designs, and sharp transient spikes in information exchange resulting from distributed cooperation. Furthermore, as humans may have an active or passive role within these systems, merging of human interaction and response times along with safety and exposure to cyberattacks must be jointly considered, e.g. in the automotive industry, where the threat of attack vectors in wireless communication using V2V/V2I/V2X paradigms, significantly increased life risks. This special issue will highlight emerging applications as well as enabling wireless communication and networking technologies and architectures to support future autonomous systems. Emphasis will be given to breakthrough research in device/network co-design solutions that efficiently integrate sensing, computing and communication and exploit context awareness at various levels to dramatically improve wireless network performance across multiple dimensions: ultra-low latency, high reliability, uniform availability, improved bandwidth and power efficiency. The special issue will also cover test-beds and demonstration of system design and development for such networks. Topics of Interest In particular, the topic of interest includes but is not limited to - Autonomous systems design and applications - Time sensitive networks for mission critical control systems - Network technologies and architectures for specialized high-end systems - 5G networks for mission critical applications - Context-aware networking protocol design - Specialized devices interactions and communication - V2X Communication for Advanced Driving Assistance Systems (ADAS) - Cooperative and synchronized self-driving vehicles - Privacy, safety and cyberattacks mitigation in COCOAS - Demonstrations and test-beds of autonomous distributed systems (e.g. autonomous vehicles, UAVs) - Simulation tools and experimental studies 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.

Ramakrishnan, University of California, Riverside, USA [Call For Papers] IEEE LANMAN has an established tradition as a forum for presenting and discussing the latest technical advances in local and metropolitan area networking. Cutting-edge papers spanning both theory and experimentation are solicited in all areas of networking. Continuing the tradition of identifying a central theme that is of current interest in our field, IEEE LANMAN 2017's theme will be Connecting Smart Cities through Software-Defined Infrastructure. This topic broadly encompasses research on how softwaredefined technologies are revolutionizing networking, particularly for emerging applications like Smart Cities and the Internet of Things. Network Function Virtualization and Software Defined Networking are transforming the network data and control planes, promising greater flexibility and lower cost. As industry and academia explore new application paradigms running on smart devices, there is an ever growing need for new network architectures, protocols, and management technologies. The intimate single-track session format of the symposium encourages stimulating exchanges between researchers. The symposium is expected to be a forum for discussion of new and interdisciplinary ideas on architectures, algorithms, service models, pricing, and performance. Speculative and potentially transformative ideas are particularly encouraged, as are studies reporting measurements from real-life networks and testbeds. Papers are solicited on topics including, but not limited to: - Novel data center network architectures, technologies, and protocols - Mobile Edge Computing and architecture innovation - Software defined networking and network function virtualization - Integration of cloud server, storage, and network resources - Name-to-name communications and name-based abstractions - Energy-efficiency, reliability, resource allocation, and pricing in data centers - Wireless access technologies (WiFi, LTE, etc) and their integration in 5G networks - Performance measurement and modeling - Internet-of-Things and Machine-to-machine communications - Smart cities, connected transportation systems, and intelligent buildings - Local-area and metropolitan-area network security - LAN-based and MAN-based applications (gaming, distributed computing, media distribution to and in the home, enterprise applications, ambient technology, wearable-computing) Ilario Filippini Assistant Professor Politecnico di Milano, DEIB Via Ponzio 34/5, 20133, Milan, IT ph: +39 02 2399 3657 web: http://home.deib.polimi.it/filippini/ ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
