-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: ACM SenSys 2017: Call for Papers (updated) Datum: Wed, 29 Mar 2017 14:51:51 +0200 Von: Carlo Alberto Boano <cboano(a)tugraz.at> Antwort an: iti.announcement(a)mlist.tugraz.at An: wolf(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de -=* The 15th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems (SenSys) *=- Call for Papers To help prospective authors concentrate their efforts on one paper at a time, the abstract registration and submission deadline for “new directions” papers is shifted by three weeks. Check below the new dates. Sensors have become an essential part of computing systems and applications. Computing today is increasingly characterised by ubiquitous, information-rich sensors that produce massive quantities of data about the physical world. This new era of computing is driving important new systems issues, and requires new system-level approaches and design principles. The ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems (SenSys 2017) is a computer systems conference focused on the architecture, design, implementation, and performance of sensors, broadly defined, as well as sensor-enabled smart systems. ACM SenSys brings together academic, industry, and government professionals to a single-track, highly selective forum on networked sensing design, implementation, and applications. ACM SenSys is the premier forum to discuss systems issues that arise specifically due to sensing. The conference takes a broad view on the areas of computing that are relevant to the future of sensor systems, and topics of interest include but are not limited to the following: * New platforms and hardware designs for sensor-enabled systems * Systems software, including operating systems and network stacks * Low power operation, energy harvesting, and energy management * Applications and deployment experiences * Protocols for sensing devices and their connection to the Internet * Mobile and pervasive systems, including personal wearable devices and robots * Sensing, actuation, and control * Key system services such as time and location estimation * Data management, including quality, integrity, and trustworthiness * Learning, adaptation, and autonomy in cyber physical systems * Fault-tolerance and reliability * Heterogeneous multi-agent sensing, including human-robot sensor systems * Security and privacy of sensor-enabled computer systems We invite technical papers describing original ideas, ground-breaking results, and/or real-world experiences involving innovative sensor systems. Successful submissions will explain why the topic is relevant to a vision of the future of sensing systems. Submissions will be judged on originality, significance, clarity, relevance, and correctness. In addition to citing relevant, published work, authors must cite and relate their submissions to relevant prior publications of the their own. Ethical approval for experiments with human subjects should be demonstrated as part of the submission. In addition to regular papers around the topics above, ACM SenSys this year solicits new directions papers discussing the future of sensor-enabled computer systems. New direction papers shall present a compelling vision of the field five years from now, discuss what current or foreseeable technologies hold the highest potential within this time frame, and argue on what are the key research problems the community needs to tackle right now to eventually realize this vision. New direction papers will be reviewed separately by the SenSys steering committee. Accepted papers will be part of the proceedings, alongside regular papers, and their authors will be invited to a panel session, together with leading experts, to share their vision. "New directions" papers are required to follow the same submission guidelines, but be limited to 6 pages everything included. Submission Guidelines Submissions must be full papers, at most 12 single-spaced 8.5” x 11” pages, including figures and tables, but excluding references, two-column format, using 10-point type on 11-point (tight single-spaced) leading, with a maximum text block of 7” wide x 9” deep with an intercolumn spacing of .25”. Submissions may include as many pages as needed for references. The review process is double-blind. Authors must make a good faith effort to anonymize their submissions. Prior works of their own must be discussed by referring to the authors in third person. Papers that do not meet the size, formatting, and anonymization requirements will not be reviewed. Accepted submissions will be available on the ACM digital library at least one week before the conference. Important Dates Regular papers: Paper Registration and Abstract: April 3, 2017, AOE. Paper Submission Deadline: April 10, 2017, AOE. “New directions” papers: Paper Registration and Abstract: April 24, 2017, AOE. Paper Submission Deadline: May 1, 2017, AOE. Notification of Paper Acceptance: July 17, 2017. Note: These are hard deadlines. No extension will be granted.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CfP: (deadline extension) Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks SI on Advances in Wireless Communication and Networking for Cooperating Autonomous Systems Datum: Wed, 29 Mar 2017 07:46:05 -0400 Von: Enrico Natalizio <Ienatalizio(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Enrico Natalizio <Ienatalizio(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Call for Papers Elsevier Ad Hoc Networks SI on Advances in Wireless Communication and Networking for Cooperating Autonomous Systems 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. Papers must not exceed 25 pages (one-column, at least 11pt fonts) including figures, tables, and references. A detailed submission guideline is available as “Guide to Authors” at www.elsevier.com/locate/adhoc. All manuscripts and any supplementary material should be submitted through Elsevier Editorial System (EES). The authors must select as “SI: Cooperating Systems” when they reach the “Article Type” step in the submission process. The EES website is located at: http://ees.elsevier.com/adhoc/ All papers will be peer-reviewed by three independent reviewers. Requests for additional information should be addressed to the guest editors.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE COMMAG FT - Advanced Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks and Intelligent IoT Datum: Wed, 22 Mar 2017 00:56:31 +0600 Von: Al-Sakib Khan Pathan <sakib.pathan(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Al-Sakib Khan Pathan <sakib.pathan(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG [Apologies, for multiple copies of this CFP due to cross-posting] Dear Colleagues, Please find below the CFP for our IEEE COMMAG Feature Topic on Advanced Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks and Intelligent IoT. Kindly submit your papers within the deadline: *01 July, 2017* Best Regards, Sakib On behalf of the Guest Editors ======================================================== *CALL FOR PAPERSFeature TopicAdvanced Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks and Intelligent IoTIEEE COMMUNICATIONS MAGAZINE* URL: http://www.comsoc.org/commag/cfp/advanced-industrial-wireless-sensor-networ… Over the past decade, the fast expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm and wireless communication technologies have created many scientific and engineering challenges that call for ingenious research efforts from both academia and industry. The IoT paradigm now covers several technologies beyond RFID and WSNs (Wireless Sensor Networks) and the application field expansion has exceeded expectations. According to Cisco IBSG (Internet Business Solution Group), more than 50 billion devices are expected to be connected to the internet by 2020 and 20 % of which are from the industry sector. Therefore, integrating the IoT concept and Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks (IWSNs) is an attractive choice for industrial process and is mainly needed to reap the full benefits of the IoT. Indeed, IWSNs are an emerging class of WSNs that face specific constraints linked to the particularities of the industrial production. IWSNs bring several advantages and have become inseparable from the manufacturing process due to their low-cost, reliability and robustness in harsh environments, energy efficiency and mobility. IWSNs involve large amount of wireless devices such as sensors for failure monitoring and detection and RFID tags for machine identification. Combining IWSN with IoT may optimize the operational efficiency, automation, maintenance and rationalization. Moreover, it ensures large scale interconnection between machines, computers and people enabling intelligent industrial operations. However, IWSN and IoT integration will need to solve a more complex challenge of combining reliable communications and low- cost computing together. The aim of this Feature Topic (FT) is to address together innovative developments resorting to the state-of-the-art technologies and ideas in areas related to advanced industrial wireless sensor networks and intelligent IoT. The FT is seeking latest findings from research and ongoing projects relevant to industrial networks’ smart integration with IoT. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Intelligent Middleware for IWSN Integration - Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) - Energy Efficient Technologies for Industrial Networks interconnection - Cloud Computing for IoT over Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks - Big Data Analysis and Mining for IIoT *SUBMISSION GUIDELINES* Articles should be tutorial in nature and written in a style comprehensible and accessible to readers outside the specialty of the article. Complete guidelines for prospective authors can be found at http://www.comsoc.org/commag/paper-submission-guidelines. The Guest Editors reserve the right to reject papers they unanimously deem to be either out of the scope of this Feature Topic or otherwise extremely unlikely to be accepted after a peer review process. It is important to note that IEEE Communications Magazine strongly limits mathematical content, and the number of figures and tables. Mathematical equations should not be used (in justified cases up to three simple equations are allowed).

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Reza Malekian <rz.mlkn(a)GMAIL.COM> Gesendet: 19. März 2017 20:03:36 MEZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: special issue in IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems- Connected vehicles in Intelligent Transportation Systems ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CALL FOR PAPERS ------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Connected vehicles in Intelligent Transportation Systems* IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems ------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Scope:* Connected Vehicles is one of many applications that can be integrated in the Intelligent Transportation Systems, encompassing all aspects of road transport, traffic management, mobility management and vehicle communication. Recently it has been further enhanced by the concept of Internet of Vehicles (IoV). Connected Vehicles enables any vehicle, anywhere, to act as a smart node, collecting and sharing information on vehicles, roads and the surroundings. This information can then be distributed to other vehicles, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication, and road users, vehicle-to-human (V2H) communication, for an improved road experience. Information can also be forwarded towards traffic control systems, vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication, for improved traffic management and road safety. Implementation of connected vehicles in intelligent transportation systems will revolutionize the way we drive.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Special Section in IEEE Trans. on Industrial Informatics "From IWSN to Industrial IoT Datum: Sun, 19 Mar 2017 16:07:02 +0000 Von: Gidlund Mikael <mikael.gidlund(a)MIUN.SE> Antwort an: Gidlund Mikael <mikael.gidlund(a)MIUN.SE> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear All, Please find below a call for papers for IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics. Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. --------------- CALL FOR PAPER: Special Section in IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics "From Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks to Industrial IoT" Deadline for manuscript submissions July 1, 2017<calendar:T2:July%201,%202017> This CFP can be seen at the website of IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics at http://tii.ieee-ies.org/. The THEME -------------- Ever-growing volume of data and information is being captured from systems, machines and devices and made available to IT systems. The information is processed on-the-fly enabling IT-based management systems to make decisions for real-time control of the manufacturing process. This data capturing and collection for IT systems is often referred to as the Internet of Things (IoT). When adopted to the industrial automation systems where robustness, reliability, security and latency and jitters are highly desired performance requirements, it is often called Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Industrial communication systems today<calendar:T5:today> primarily consist of legacy systems such as HART, Foundation FIELDBUS, CAN and Profibus - well-working and established industry-specific networks installed in millions of systems. In the last decades, there has been a push for IP-based technology which has made Ethernet become a popular communication infrastructure. But to meet the stringent timing requirements of industrial applications, it has been necessary to implement real-time functionality. The communication plays a central role for the availability of all relevant information in real-time. Furthermore, it is indisputable that the mobility of objects involved in the production as well as the necessary flexibility of the production require wireless communication systems. The need for wireless communication is steadily increasing in many automation applications. In order to fully exploit the potentials offered by wireless communication for monitoring, control and automation applications, there is a further need for time-constrained communication protocols that provide bounded latency together with high reliability or energy efficiency. In addition, wireless automation applications need to interact with legacy wired communications systems and provide equivalent levels of security and dependability. Furthermore, industrial settings are highly dynamic environments which call for the ability to adapt to changes in the operating conditions while still not violating the time-constraints of the applications. Given the above scenarios, there is a need to disseminate, streamline and investigate research findings coming from several different application domains, namely from factory automation to industrial process monitoring and control, from traffic, environmental, building and structural monitoring to mobile robotics, from vehicular communication to energy management and healthcare applications. This need is especially driven by the industry interest in enabling large-scale wireless deployments for the sake of flexible, competitive and cost-efficient production. The goal of this special section is to attract papers addressing the main research issues in design, development, adoption and applications of Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks and Industrial Internet-of-Things. IIoT provides a great opportunity to new gains in flexibility and productivity but also challenges as to how to merge existing installations to these new technologies. Topics include, but are not limited to: * Architecture and protocol design for industrial IoT systems * 5G for future industrial automation * Security, safety and privacy issues in industrial wireless networks and applications * Deployment, integration and case studies of IWSN and IIoT * Performance evaluation, simulation, RF measurements, and modeling of industrial IoT systems * Embedded industrial IoT applications * Intelligent M2M Communications in industrial IoT * Cognitive IIoT * Cloud-based IIoT solutions The use of information technology also opens up new application areas for automation systems. Examples include but are not limited to: * Smart Manufacturing and Web-of-Things in the factory line * Process, Factory, Home and Building Automation * Smart grids / Smart metering * Industrial Robotics and Automation * Smart and Connected Health MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION AND SUBMISSION --------------- Follow the guidelines in "Information for Authors" in the IEEE Transaction on Industrial Informatics http://tii.ieee-ies.org/ Please submit your manuscript in electronic form through Manuscript Central web site: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tii.

Domain-specific sensing deployments in scenarios like industrial settings and home automation are becoming more and more ubiquitous, particularly with the advent of novel sensing platforms which allow for the seamless integration of sensing devices into everyday environments. At the same time, data gathered through wireless sensor network deployments empower applications in the emerging domains of smart cities and smart infrastructures. While enabling technologies have evolved into mature and widely available solutions, insights gathered from real-world sensor network deployments are still scarce and many practical issues in building sensor network applications persist. A thorough understanding of these challenges from a practical/systems perspective is still necessary. This especially applies to insights from the areas of hardware platforms of sensor and actuator nodes, their operating systems, the networking of nodes, and fresh perspectives from field trials and applications. This workshop aims at bringing together researchers from both academia and industry to showcase their work and obtain feedback. It serves as a forum for the sensing network research communities working on embedded sensing systems to discuss open issues, novel solutions, and the future development of wireless sensing in general. We encourage contributions describing innovative work in the realms of wireless sensor networks, cyber-physical systems, smart spaces, machine-to-machine communication, the Internet of Things, and all related disciplines. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Practical experiences from innovative real-world sensor network deployments and applications - Hands-on experiences with the integration of sensor networks and the Internet of Things - Middleware support for sensor networks - Programming and debugging sensor networks - Security, availability and dependability issues in sensor networks - Experiences with new sensor hardware and node/platform designs - Practical problems in implementing localization and time synchronization - Experiences with communications protocols for the IoT, M2M, or CPS - Practical medium access control protocols (MACs) - Topology control and routing protocols in sensor network deployments - Novel communication paradigms for wireless sensor networks - Mobility management in sensor applications and deployments - Fault-tolerance and troubleshooting sensor networks - Experiences regarding energy management and network lifetime - Experiences with energy harvesters and energy-sustainable designs - Deployment, installation, and configuration support - Management of large-scale sensor networks and sensing campaigns - Interconnection between IP and sensor networks - Interfacing with sensor networks using mobile computing devices - Large-scale open sensor data sets from real deployments - Integration of wireless sensor networks with smart city infrastructures - Real-world use of WSN platforms in smart spaces and cyber-physical systems - Sensor networking for smart power grids - Practical experiences with wearable sensing technologies Submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three independent experts in the field.
