####################
Call for Paper:
Special Issues on "Cross-layer Design Issues, Challenges and Opportunities for Future Intelligent Heterogeneous Networks" Journal of Ambient Intelligence and Humanized Computing (JAIHC), Springer
CFP is available on : http://static.springer.com/sgw/documents/1617671/application/pdf/CfP_CDICOF…
####################
The concept and operations of data communication are based on the integration of various heterogeneous wireless networks such as mobile communication networks (3G/4G/LTE/5G), wireless sensor networks (WSNs), wireless local area networks (WLANs), wireless mesh networks (WMNs), wireless body area networks (WBANs), etc.. These wireless networks are providing backbone of future generation communication technologies. Unique characteristics of wireless networks such as mobility, high error rates, and multipath propagations bring the new challenges to traditional TCP/IP-based protocol stack which was developed mainly for wired networks. The unexpected packet losses in wireless networks significantly degrade the networks’ performances. On the other hand, quality of service (QoS) is another challenge for the wireless networks which enable users to share multimedia data while moving in real time. For the efficient and controlled communications in the future generation networks, it is very important to design and develop smart and state-of-the-art algorithms. Even though the protocol architecture traditionally follows strict layering principle, the lack of coordination among the layers rather limits the performances of wireless networks. The optimization cross over various key network parameters including energy efficiency, mobility management, security, cooperation, and quality of service (QoS) is essential issue for the future wireless networks and the solution of it might be cross-layer design. The core idea of the cross- layer design is not only to maintain the functionalities associated to the conventional original layers, but also to allow coordination, integration, and joint optimization of protocols. The goal of this special issue is to solicit the state-of-the-art and novel protocols and methodologies that embark on cross-layer design, issue and opportunities for future intelligent heterogeneous wireless networks.
Topics of interest in this special issue include, but are not limited to:
+ Cross-layer design for physical, MAC and routing protocols
+ Cross-layer design for energy efficient MAC and routing.
+ Cross-layer design for mobility management.
+ Cross-layer design for QoS provisioning.
+ Cross-layer design for security and cooperation.
+ Cross-layer congestion control and scheduling schemes.
+ Cross-layer design and optimization in Internet of Things (IoTs) and smart grid.
+ Cross-layer strategies for wireless multimedia communications.
+ Cross-layer error and delay control.
+ Cross-layer optimization for energy, network lifetime, and capacity.
+ Complexity and scalability issues in cross-layer design.
+ Performance optimization for cross-layer design of wireless networks.
+ Cross-layer adaptation for energy minimization in wireless networks.
+ Application layer adaptation-based on cross-layer notifications.
+ Design, implementation and test-bed/experimental results.

Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] EWSN 2018 Dependability Competition - Call for Contestants
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Call for Competitors
3rd Dependability Competition at the
Intl. Conf. on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks (EWSN)
February 14-16, 2018 - Madrid, Spain
https://ewsn2018.networks.imdea.org/call-for-competitors.html
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Following the success of the 2016 and 2017 editions, the Intl.
Conference on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks (EWSN) will
host also this year a competition to compare the performance of
WSN and IoT communication protocols in harsh RF environments.
FORMAT:
This year's dependability competition will have a new format
compared to the past two editions, the most prominent changes being
that it will take place remotely over a longer time window, and that
it will involve the reporting of multiple events from several nodes.
Interested participants should first submit an abstract describing
their approach by the competition entry deadline. Accepted
contestants will obtain the credentials to remotely access the
competition infrastructure and enter the preparation phase, after
which each team needs to provide one binary that will be used for
the final evaluation.
A poster session entirely dedicated to the dependability competition
will take place during the evening of the first conference day. All
competing teams must present their solution in the poster session
and will have the possibility to engage in lively discussions with
the other conference attendees. The winners of the competition will
be awarded during a dedicated plenary session on the second
conference day and will hold a 10-minutes talk presenting their
solution, followed by a short discussion.
COMPETITION SCENARIO AND EVALUATION PROCEDURE:
The competition scenario emulates the operation of a sensor and
actuator network monitoring discrete events in an industrial
setting where several co-existing wireless devices are crowding
the RF spectrum. A complete description of the competition scenario
and evaluation procedure can be found at:
https://ewsn2018.networks.imdea.org/call-for-competitors.html
ELIGIBILITY
Both academia and industry submissions are encouraged. All wireless
communication protocols used in low-power wireless sensor networks
are welcome, and there is no restriction on the operating system
used to program the sensor nodes.
The competition will take place if at least 5 teams respond to this
preliminary call for competitors. Depending on the nature and number
of submissions, multiple categories may be defined. The winning
teams in each category will receive cash awards and present their
approach at EWSN in a 10-minutes plenary talk.
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
Interested participants should first submit a two-page abstract
describing their approach by the competition entry deadline,
following the formatting requirements described on the competition
Webpage. The abstracts will be used to pre-select the participants
to the competition. Accepted contestants will have the chance to
edit their abstract and submit a camera-ready version by the end of
the competition's preparation phase. Accepted abstracts will appear
in the ACM Digital Library, unless authors explicitly mark their
submission as confidential.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Sixth CoSDEO Workshop
**Usable Security**
https://cosdeo.github.io
in conjunction with
IEEE PerCom 2018
================================================
## Important dates
November 11, 2017: Paper and demo submission deadline
December 23, 2017: Notification of acceptance
January 12, 2018: Submission of camera-ready deadline
## Call
The workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners
working on the design, implementation, and evaluation of systems,
algorithms or models for usable security.
Recently, usable security receives a growing amount of attention in
industry and from academia. This covers, for instance, novel pairing and
security schemes for pervasive systems where identity cues are provided
from sensor information as well as the discussion of novel sensor
modalities or secure processing methodologies. The offensive side
includes attacks on existing security mechanisms as well as entropy and
statistical analysis of key sequences.
It is therefore the goal of this workshop to provide a publication and
discussion platform for this growing community in which fundamental
problems but also sophisticated approaches are presented and discussed.
Thus, we like to encourage practioners and scientists in all stages of
their research, from first experiments to readily developed and
evaluated systems, to submit their original work to allow a broad
discussion with established field experts but also researchers
relatively new to the field.
Even if work is in a very early stage all submitted work must conform to
typical scientific requirements; showing a good overview of the field
and the specific area of the context of interest. If the paper is based
on a technical system the system should be described and discussed
thoroughly.
Besides regular papers, we also encourage submission of visionary papers
which need not describe completed research but contain ideas new to the
field. These may be related to novel and convenient techniques for key
generation and pairing, discussions on entropy and statistical
properties of sensor- generated random sequences but also novel
applications and designs of usable security systems.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
* Novel usable security mechanisms in the field of pervasive computing
* Biometric and context-based authentication and pairing schemes, e.g.,
based on gait, audio, video, usage patterns, haptics, RF …
* Usability evaluations of new or existing security or privacy features
* User studies in usable security
* Attacks on security schemes
* Privacy functionality and design for ubiquitous systems
* Fuzzy cryptography in security systems
* Quantization approaches
* Lessons learned from the deployment and use of usable and pervasive
security
* User experience in mobile security
* Security schemes for sharply resource limited devices in Pervasive and
IoT environments
* Privacy and anonymization aspects in usable security
* Novel interfaces fostering usable security
* Entropy estimation and statistical analysis for keys generated from
usably secure systems
* Edge-support for usable security on resource limited pervasive devices
* Lightweight security solutions
* Biometrics on resource-limited devices
* Ethics and legal considerations in usable security
* Detection and prevention of attacks on usably secure systems
* Authentication and access control for usably secure systems
* Trust in usable security
* Orchestration and collaboration between devices in usable security
* Quantization approaches

RF bandwidth. We need alternative ways to exploit RF technology and to
use other means to transmit data wirelessly. The aim of this workshop is
to bring together researchers and practitioners from different
communities to identify and explore novel wireless communication
technologies, and debate on and discuss priorities and challenges in the
research agenda.
Scope
The workshop will consist of a keynote and presentations of short
papers. The short papers can be of a technical nature, presenting
preliminary technical results, or position papers presenting a
thought-provoking view regarding methods or applications for novel
wireless communication technologies. The topics of interest include, but
are not limited to:
- backscatter communication
- visible light communication
- magnetic induction communication
- terahertz communication
- camera-based communication
- thermal-based communication
- molecular communication
- communication through physical vibration
- acoustic communication
- services piggybacked on wireless communication (e.g. gesture
recognition/radar)
- mobile RF networks and drone-enabled communication
- new platforms
- new communication methods with RF signals

IEEE PerCrowd 2018 -- 1st International Workshop on Context-Awareness
for Multi-Device Pervasive and Mobile Computing
Co-located with IEEE PerCom 2018, March 19-23

SCOPE AND OVERVIEW
__________________
-
Pervasive and mobile systems are constrained by energy and performance
issues when they operate in isolation. Yet, several studies have shown
that smart devices are frequently co-located in proximity to at least
one other device throughout the day, suggesting that devices can
potentially collaborate to reduce the effort of resource intensive
tasks, e.g., sensing, offloading, networking, storage, etc. However,
merging the resources of multiple devices to work together is a tough
challenge as it requires a common understanding of the context of each
device. In addition, since smart devices function in multiple roles,
understanding what really constitutes context becomes difficult as
different types of contexts need to be modeled depending on the type of
task. -
Context information is critical in multi device setups, e.g., for the
formation of collaboration groups, and for negotiating responsibilities
between the devices. Any misunderstandings in context can thus be
extremely counterproductive for the collaboration between devices.
Consider, for example, a computational task, e.g., game puzzle, whose
execution can be accelerated by dividing computations between two or
more devices. To distribute the task, we first need to understand the
processing capacity of each device to ensure devices with insufficient
resources are not harnessed for this task as they would turn into
bottleneck for execution. By detecting the context for harnessing
collaborative and opportunistic resources in proximity, it is possible
to reduce the cost of executing tasks in the constrained resources of
smart devices, and to diffuse the presence of smart devices beyond their
existing computing isolated behavior.
- The goal of PerCrowd 2018 is to explore the impact of context in
collaborative and opportunistic computing. More in detail, the goal of
this workshop is to explore the use and effect of contexts on
multi-device settings, whose computational behavior can be propagated
within a community of devices for optimizing their energy and performance.
-
Original papers addressing theoretical, practical, and technical aspects
of opportunistic and collaborative self-organization of devices are
solicited. Papers describing prototype implementations and deployment of
such applications and systems are particularly welcome. The submission
of informative surveys of the state of the art as well as position
papers on controversial issues is also encouraged. -
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Context-aware collaborative systems and applications
- Resource extension of pervasive and mobile applications
- Opportunistic context modeling - Pervasive computing applications
harnessing multiple devices
- Data-driven techniques for community formation
- Self-organizing community construction and evolution
- Crowdsensing and crowdsourcing models for data acquisition and fusion
- Applications of crowdsensed models, e.g., incentive models, decision
making models, and privacy models.
- Infrastructure, architectures, and platforms for collaborative systems
- Lessons and experiences of evaluating multi device context-aware
systems and applications
- Emerging applications for multi device environments.
-
-
PAPER FORMAT AND SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
________________________________________
-
Papers should contain original material and not be previously published
or currently under consideration elsewhere. Manuscripts must be limited

Special issue on "Signal Processing for Internet-of-Things"
The notion of “Internet of Things” has emerged as a last-mile solution for
connecting various cyber technologies to our everyday life. It envisions a
three-tier architecture that highly distributed and heterogeneous sensor
data will be collected through a gateway and be made available to the
Internet, and be readily accessible to a wide range of applications. Today,
with an ever-increasing number and type of Internet-of-Thing devices, as
well as the increasing demands being placed on the end user, sensing
platform, and computing and storage infrastructure, more is being asked of
engineers, designers, and scientists. Signal processing is playing an
increasingly substantial role in this domain, including such general topics
as analyzing, summarizing, and protecting signals and information exchanged
or shared by connected things. The diversity of these problems requires a
more collaborative effort from engineers and scientists from a diverse set
of specialties – and yet, there is no one real domain for which to publish
and communicate to this general community. The impact to society is
massive, including such broad aspects as (i) energy efficiency and
accuracy, (ii) security and privacy considerations, (iii) big data
application. How will signal processing advance today’s autonomous
networked sensor/device into inter-connected ones in an energy efficient,
secure and privacy-preserving manner? How to leverage today’s pervasive
cloud and network infrastructure to foster more intriguing applications
with more demanding signal processing, machine learning techniques? There
are clearly new and emerging challenges that need to be addressed.
This special issue invites well thought-out tutorial-style surveys and
overviews of recent research and development in Internet-of-Things,
covering their infrastructure support and applications including edging and
cloud computing, wireless networking, mobile computing, ubiquitous sensing,
machine learning, security, and automotive navigation. As such, this
special issue aims to cover a wide variety of aspects with a focus of the
enabling and synergistic roles that signal processing plays. The scope of
this special issue is interdisciplinary and seeks collaborative
contributions from academia and industrial experts in the areas of computer
system, wireless networking, embedded system, signal processing, security,
and machine learning/data mining.
Topics of Interest include (but are not limited to):
- Energy efficient algorithm design
- Video and audio analytics associated with the IoT platform
- Machine learning, data mining and big IoT data analytics
- Mobility and network connectivity in IoT applications
- Wireless and mobile technologies in IoT connectivity
- Security and privacy for IoT applications and systems
- Cloud (internet, edge) support for IoT applications
- Multi-sensor fusion IoT applications
- Human factors and cognitive science in IoT
- Autonomous, semi-autonomous and IoT control
- DSP technologies in IoT
- IoT in healthcare and other novel applications
White papers are required, and full articles are invited based on the
review of white papers. Articles submitted to this issue must be of
tutorial and overview/survey nature and in accessible style to a broad
audience, and contain significant relevance to the signal processing and
its use in Internet-of-Things (authors of original research articles should
submit instead to the appropriate journals or transactions). Submissions
will be reviewed according to the IEEE Signal Processing Magazine
guidelines, and should not have been published or under review elsewhere.

Author notification: January 15th, 2018
The ACM/IEEE International Conference on Internet of Things Design and
Implementation (IoTDI) is a premier venue on IoT. In 2018, IoTDI will be
held for the third time and topics span the entire ecosystem revolving
around IoT, such as cloud and edge computing, data analytics, sensor
networks, mobile devices, Internet architecture, middleware and numerous
IoT applications. To reflect the interconnection of IoT with both cloud
computing and cyber-physical systems, IoTDI is co-located in even years
with IEEE IC2E and in odd years with CPS Week.
Plan to submit your best papers to ACM/IEEE IoTDI 2018 (deadline 2017/10/6)
and see you in Orlando, Florida, in April 2018, where IoTDI will be
co-located with IEEE IC2E.
A confluence of technological advances marks the advent of a new era. World
data volume is growing at an unprecedented pace, much of it from embedded
devices. Smart cities are expected to grow, fed by millions of data points
from multitudes of human and physical sources. Cyber-attacks grow more
nefarious, bringing down physical systems. Social networks are becoming
ubiquitous, offering information on physical things. The separation between
cyber, physical, and social systems is blurring. Collectively, these
developments lead to the emergence of a new field, where the networking and
physical realms meet. It is the field of the Internet of Things (IoT). This
conference is an interdisciplinary forum to discuss challenges,
technologies, and emerging directions in system design and implementation
that pertain to this Internet of Things. This conference invites
