-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE Access | Convergence of Sensor Networks,Cloud Computing, and Big Data in Industrial Internet of Things Datum: Wed, 12 Jul 2017 00:36:13 +0000 Von: shu lei <lei.shu(a)LIVE.IE> Antwort an: shu lei <lei.shu(a)LIVE.IE> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS Submission Deadline: 10 December 2017 IEEE Access invites manuscript submissions in the area of Convergence of Sensor Networks, Cloud Computing, and Big Data in Industrial Internet of Things. With growing attention from both academia and industry, industrial internet of things (IIoT), comprised of a multitude of connected devices, is supposed to monitor, collect, exchange, analyze, and further instantly act on information to intelligently change the industrial device’s behavior or the industrial environment (e.g., autonomous reaction to unexpected changes in production by effectively detecting failures and triggering maintenance processes). In consideration of this goal, the convergence of sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT is recently identified as an essential component. Specifically, sensor networks are deployed to capture various data in IIoT. Meanwhile, cloud computing platforms are developed to store and process data powerfully in IIoT. Moreover, big data analytics tools are utilized to glean valuable findings from the massive data in IIoT. However, to integrate sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT in a robust way, there are a lot of tough issues to be solved with respect to various aspects (e.g., framework, power efficiency, security, quality of service, etc.). Therefore, this Special Section in IEEE Access aims to solicit original technical papers with novel contributions on the convergence of sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT. Review or survey type articles will also be considered. Submissions should focus on the convergence (i.e., the contemporaneous utilization of at least two of the three technologies – sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT). Submissions that work on the experimental implementation of the convergence of sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT are especially welcome. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Frameworks that integrate sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT * Data gathering in the convergence of sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT * Green mechanisms that integrate sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT * Data communication in the convergence of sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT * Security techniques that integrate sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT * Data computing in the convergence of sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT * Quality of service enhancement methods that integrate sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT * Data fusion in the convergence of sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT * Novel applications that integrate sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT * Data mining in the convergence of sensor networks, cloud computing, and big data in IIoT We also highly recommend the submission of multimedia with each article as it significantly increases the visibility, downloads, and citations of articles.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: PPNA special issue on Network Coverage Datum: Tue, 11 Jul 2017 22:31:30 +0800 Von: Xiufang Shi <xfshi.zju(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Xiufang Shi <xfshi.zju(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Call for Papers PPNA special issue on Network Coverage: From Theory to Practice Coverage problem has been a hot topic in the last two decades with the rising of wireless sensor networks. It is concerned with the quality of sensing about the targets of interest that the sensor network is deployed for. Extensive previous effort has been devoted to exploring coverage theory, which ranges from point coverage, barrier coverage to area coverage in line with the dimension of concerned targets. Though these theoretical investigations provide insightful understanding about coverage, there are quite limited previous studies reporting coverage application in practical scenarios. How much can we gain by applying theoretical coverage results from the practical point of view? Further, some recent results are provided about coverage problem in other research fields, such as cellular network and social networks. Is it possible to provide a general theoretical framework for network coverage given the understanding gained from sensor networks? The answers to these two fundamental questions would extend the boundaries of traditional sensor coverage and push the coverage research from theory to practice. The objective of this call is to bring latest thoughts and applications in generic network coverage, that help put together a clear map for this important area. The potential interesting topics of this call include, but are not limited to: ü Sensor deployment for coverage in sensor networks ü Sensor scheduling for coverage in randomly deployed sensor networks ü Coverage modeling in sensor networks ü Dynamic coverage in mobile sensor networks ü Joint optimization of coverage and connectivity ü Practical applications in sensor networks ü Coverage problem in varying fields ü Practical implementations in varying fields ü Studies on the framework of generic network coverage ü Optimization for generic network coverage The manuscript to this special issue must be original with significant contributions, and have not been under review in any other journals or conferences. Each submission must include a title, an abstract, a list of key words, and an introduction that summarizes the contributions of the paper, and will be reviewed according to the normal standard and procedure of this journal. When submitting your article, please indicate that you are submitting to the Special Issue on Network Coverage: From Theory to Practice (SI: Network Coverage).

In a WSN, a large number of sensor nodes are deployed and networked to monitor or survey targeted area, such that the interested data can be sensed, processed, stored and collected. Through WSNs, we are able to bridge the physical word and the cyber space, which composes the foundation for developing new smart applications. Many potential applications of WSNs have been exploited in the fields of environmental engineering, healthcare, industry, military applications, smart home, and green buildings etc. To enable the pervasive deployment of WSNs, the biggest stumbling block is the contradiction between the various functionalities demanded by applications and the limited energy supply for sensor nodes. Such a situation is getting worse, especially considering the increasing network scale. Therefore, in this special issue, we look at WSNs, mainly from the perspective of green computing. On one hand, we expect to design energy-saving (or –free) protocols cross different system layers, to prolong the network lifetime as far as possible. Specifically, to practice WSNs in real applications, we are supposed to achieve a tradeoff between system performance and energy efficiency, through adapting sensing/networking functionalities to energy budget. On the other hand, we can resort to seeking new techniques to sustainably supply energy to sensor nodes. For example, sensor nodes equipped with certain mechanisms can harvest energy from surrounding circumstance, or we can rely on dedicated devices to periodically charge the sensor nodes (if they are re-chargeable). The above threads (or the joint optimizations cross them) are of great significance to improve the sustainability and performance of WSNs. Therefore, it is highly worthy to extensively investigate how we run a WSN in a green fashion. Topics of primary interest are centered around green computing in WSNs, including but not being limited to: l Energy harvesting/charging and power management l Long-life sensor node deployment and topology control l Energy-efficient communication protocol design l Scheduling algorithms for sensor networks l Energy-efficient (or –free) sensing techniques l New applications of self-sustainable sensor networks l Data routing, processing and storage strategies l Network modelling and performance analysis *Schedule* Manuscript Due: August 15th, 2017 First Notification: October 31st, 2017 Revised version: December 15th, 2017 Final notification: January 15th, 2018 Publication Date: The 2nd quarter of 2018 (tentative) *Guest Editor* *Feng Li* (Corresponding Editor) School of Computer Science and Technology Shandong University Jinan, Shandong, China 250101 Email: fli(a)sdu.edu.cn *Shibo He* School of Computer Science and Engineering Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China 310027 Email: s18he(a)zju.edu.cn *Jun Luo* School of Computer Science and Engineering Nanyang Technological University Singapore 639798 Email: junluo(a)ntu.edu.sg *Gurusamy Mohan* Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering National University of Singapore Singapore 117576 Email: elegm(a)nus.edu.sg *Junshan Zhang* School of Electrical, Computer and Engineering Arizona State University Tempe, AZ 85287-7206 Email: junshan.zhang(a)asu.edu ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

In the CPS realm, humans and/or smart networked devices interact with and control the physical world around them through actuators, sensors, etc. “CPS is envisioned to transform the way people interact with engineered systems, just as the Internet transformed the way people interact with information." (US National Science Foundation). Today, the boundary between cyber and physical systems is blurring. Indeed, cyber devices that can interact with the physical world are on the rise. For instance, smart phones and tablets are all equipped with various sensors (e.g., accelerometers, GPS), which enable the vision of CPS by allowing human beings to interact with the physical world. Similarly, a multitude of CPS devices and applications exist in industrial, transportation, medical, home-security, building automation, emergency management, pow er, and many other systems, which serve critical functions in our lives. Given the popularity of the CPS applications, securing them against malicious activities is of utmost importance. Otherwise, malfunctioning and insecure CPS devices and applications can cause enormous damage to individuals, businesses, and nations. Therefore, the International Workshop on Cyber-Physical Systems Security (CPS-Sec) seeks novel submissions describing practical and theoretical solutions to the cyber security challenges facing CPS.

Relevant scenarios include the natural disasters such as earthquakes, fires or floods that disrupt traditional communication infrastructures, or that displace large crowds, overloading what is left of the communication infrastructure. In these scenarios, people are in need of directions, advice, updates on the current situation and they often need to send out requests for help or to make their location known to rescue teams. Ideally, users should be able to communicate directly between themselves, even in the absence of a cellular infrastructure - a common occurrence in disaster scenarios. However, it is also crucial that solutions and platforms are developed to integrate emergency management data coming from multiple sources, including feeds provided by citizens through social media and crowdsourcing. The I-TENDER workshop will aim at capturing the research and technology trends that enable such awareness by soliciting contributions along three main directions. First, solutions that leverage the widespread availability of handheld devices (smartphone, tablets) that act as the prime contact point to alert the population of impending dangers and as a locating device for rescue teams. Secondly, data analysis techniques that take into account the pervasive role of social networks in collecting and spreading information and provide accurate checking using appropriate tools. And, finally, emerging networking paradigms that go beyond the traditional infrastructure-based model, rather leveraging disruption-tolerant models and device-to-device communication, such as Wi-Fi direct and LTE-D2D. The workshop seeks original work presented in the form of research papers describing new research approaches and results. Highly disruptive work-in-progress and position papers are welcome, provided they focus on particularly innovative solutions or applications for emergency and disaster relief. We also invite authors to submit papers presenting extensive experiences with implementation, deployment, and operation. Topics of interest for the workshop include, but are not limited to: + Challenged networks (e.g., disaster relief and emergency management) + Network systems for emergency scenarios (e.g., UAV-supported base stations) + Peer-to-peer and overlay networks for infrastructureless communication + Delay/disruption-tolerant networks + Participatory and opportunistic networking, computing and sensing + Security/trust/privacy topics in emergency scenarios + Social Media-based localization and data filtering + Local mobile clouds + Tools for building emergency and disaster relief solutions + Location and positioning in constrained scenarios + User interface and mobile application design for emergency management ***Submission Instructions*** Electronic submissions will be handled using HotCRP: https://i-tender17.hotcrp.com The workshop will accept both long papers and short papers. Long papers may be up to 6 pages long, while short papers may be up to 2 pages long. These lengths include all figures, tables, references, and appendices.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP - IEEE Percom 2018 Datum: Fri, 7 Jul 2017 08:59:27 +0000 Von: Sarah Clinch <sarah.clinch(a)MANCHESTER.AC.UK> Antwort an: Sarah Clinch <sarah.clinch(a)MANCHESTER.AC.UK> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG =============================================================================== The Sixteenth Annual IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications PerCom 2018 (http://www.percom.org/) =============================================================================== Athens, Greece, March 19-23, 2018 =============================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE PerCom, now in its sixteenth year, is established as the premier annual scholarly venue in the areas of pervasive computing and communications. Pervasive computing and communications have evolved into highly active areas of research; they have found their way into many current commercial systems due to the tremendous advances in a broad spectrum of technologies and topics including wireless networking, mobile and distributed computing, sensor systems, ambient intelligence, and smart devices. PerCom 2018 will be held in Athens, the capital city of Greece and one of the most historic cities in Europe. PerCom 2018 will provide a leading edge scholarly forum for researchers, engineers, and students alike to share their state-of-the art research and developmental work in the broad areas of pervasive computing and communications. The conference will feature a diverse mixture of interactive forums: core technical sessions of high-quality cutting-edge research articles; targeted workshops on exciting topics; live demonstrations of pervasive computing in action; insightful keynote speeches; panel discussions from domain experts; and posters of emerging ideas. Research contributions are solicited in all areas pertinent to pervasive computing and communications, including: * Advances in pervasive systems and infrastructures: middleware systems and services; large-scale data management for pervasive computing; clouds, cloudlets, and fog computing; integrations of smartphones in pervasive experiences; applications of device-to-device coordination. * Theories, models, and algorithms: context modeling and reasoning; adaptive and context-aware computing; activity recognition; programing paradigms; applied machine learning; cognitive computing techniques. * Domain-specific challenges and novel applications: urban/mobile crowdsensing & intelligence; pervasive technologies for healthcare; cyber-physical pervasive computing; innovative pervasive computing applications. * Intersections of pervasive computing with: social networks; opportunistic networks; Internet of things; sensor networks; RFID systems; big data. * New techniques for user-level concerns : participatory and social sensing; trust, security, and privacy; user interface, interaction, and persuasion; social networking and pervasive computing. * Technological innovations: architectures, protocols, and technologies for pervasive communications; mobile and wearable computing systems and services; smart devices and intelligent environments; positioning and tracking technologies. Contributions can be analytical, empirical, technological, methodological, or a combination of these. Papers reporting strong systems engineering contributions backed by solid and appropriate evaluations are strongly encouraged. The impact of the contributions should be demonstrated in the context of pervasive computing and communications. Papers applying known techniques from other fields must clearly demonstrate substantial novelty or pervasive computing impact. ================================= Workshops and Affiliated Events ================================= A number of workshops will be held in conjunction with the main conference. Workshop papers will be included and indexed in the IEEE digital libraries (Xplore) along with papers from the main conference. As in the past, PerCom 2018 will also feature a PhD Forum, Work-in-Progress Posters, and Live Demonstrations. Please visit the conference website for details. ================================= Best paper award ================================= The best paper will receive the prestigious Mark Weiser Best Paper Award. Papers of particular merit will be considered for a special issue of the Elsevier journal of Pervasive and Mobile Computing (PMC). ================================= Important Dates ================================= Paper Registration: September 15, 2017 Paper submission: September 22, 2017 Notification: December 12, 2017 Camera Ready: January 12, 2018 ================================= Submission Guidelines ================================= Submitted papers must be unpublished and not considered elsewhere for publication.
