-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] ACM MobiHoc 2018 Datum: Mon, 26 Feb 2018 13:16:24 -0700 Von: Abderrahmen Mtibaa <amtibaa(a)NMSU.EDU> Antwort an: Abderrahmen Mtibaa <amtibaa(a)NMSU.EDU> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG [Apologies if you receive multiple copies.] MobiArch 2018 13th Workshop on Mobility in the Evolving Internet Architecture To be held in conjunction with MobiSys 2018, June 10th, Munich, Germanywww.sigmobile.org/mobisys/2018/ Call for Papers Recent years have witnessed not only mobile devices surpassing stationary Internet hosts in numbers, but also exponential growth of mobile data traffic due to ubiquitous penetration of portable devices, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications, user-generated content sharing, and user-centric applications such as augmented/virtual reality. In the meantime, mobile devices continue to increase in their computing power, as well as the network infrastructure is in the process of transforming from a hardware-dominated landscape to an increasingly virtualized and software-defined system with computing moving to the cloud, edge, and the fog to alleviate the processing load on the mobile devices. The increasing ability to collect and process large amounts of data pertaining to network, devices, and users is posing new challenges to network design, in which, for example, resources are provisioned in either centralized global data centers or local servers close to the network edge, or both interacting with one another. In this context, various networking challenges arise, such as seamless IP mobility management, algorithm design to correlate user mobility and application usages, online/offline exploitation of large amount of mobility and usage data from the access network and user devices, investigating possibility of offloading computing/storage tasks from mobile hosts to the cloud/edge, algorithm design to correlate traffic offloading to content offloading and application offloading, pattern inference and estimation, and multi-connectivity technology exploitation for QoS, and extreme reliability and low-latency in challenged scenarios. To tackle these challenges, various issues need to be addressed, such as efficient mobility management and optimization, multi-homing, efficient transport over heterogeneous wireless access options, incentive mechanisms, efficient and quality-aware mobile multimedia content distribution, information-centric and mobility-aware networking solutions, new business models for mobile data, security and privacy, as well as related operational concerns and legal issues. MobiArch 2018 welcomes submissions from both researchers and practitioners from academia and industry that explore challenges and advances in architectures, algorithms, protocols, middleware, and technologies in the current Internet or in the future clean-slate Internet. We also encourage work-in-progress and position papers that describe highly original ideas, present new directions, or have the potential to generate insightful provocative discussions. MobiArch uses a single blind review policy for paper review. All papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library. Topics of interest center around all architectural issues and system support for mobility in the evolving Internet (e.g., towards content-centric, information-centric, edge/fog computing, and network softwarization), including but not limited to: • Architectures and protocols for mobility support at all layers (including cross-layer) of the IP stack • Architectures and protocols for mobile edge/fog computing • Architectures and protocols for efficient integration of cyber-physical sensors/actuators, edge nodes, and the cloud, with offloading opportunities in the different layers • Future Internet architecture for efficient mobility support • Mobile network management and architecture design with data analysis and learning, in particular with reference to the technical challenges of big and M2M data • Mobility in 5G (network slicing, mobility across access networks and in 5G-core, etc.) • Software defined and/or cloud–assisted mobile networking • Network virtualization in mobile Internet architecture • Connected vehicles architecture (and associated Vehicle-to-Vehicle/Vehicle-to-Infrastructure communications) • Impact of M2M communications (e.g., WiFi Direct, LTE Direct, etc.) on Internet architecture design • Mobile data sensing and fusion, in particular with reference to the technical challenges of big and M2M data • Impact of Information-Centric Networking on mobile and wireless networks • Cognitive networks design for mobile systems and applications • Seamless mobility and mobility-prediction-enhanced techniques in heterogeneous networks • Location management, positioning, and data management for wireless and mobility • Accounting, access control, security, and privacy issues, and novel technologies such as block-chains • Social, economic, scalability, and deployment issues • Large-scale pilots, deployment experiences, experimentation, and quantitative performance assessment of innovative mobile Internet architectures Workshop Co-Chairs Thomas Magedanz, Fraunhofer Institute FOKUS in Berlin, Germany Satyajayant “Jay” Misra, New Mexico State University (NMSU), USA Best Paper Award All papers will be considered for the Best Paper award.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] The 8th ACM MobiHoc 2018 Workshop on Pervasive Wireless Healthcare (MobileHealth 2018) Datum: Mon, 26 Feb 2018 16:16:39 +0000 Von: Soufiene Djahel <sdjahel(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Soufiene Djahel <sdjahel(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS 8th ACM MobiHoc Workshop on Pervasive Wireless Healthcare (MobileHealth 2018) June 25, 2018, Los Angeles, USA Health cost represents a considerable ratio in the economic budget of developed countries, and certain tendency studies are not optimistic about an improvement in the situation. Average age of the population tends to increase and the number of people requiring more or less care intensive medical monitoring is not small. This increases overall cost of medical care. No doubt, using socio-medical establishments to place people at risk under surveillance is impractical for cost reasons, but also for reasons of quality of life. Many of these people are fully autonomous, though weakened. Their psychological confinement due to the presence of nursing staff would be a breach of their freedom. Therefore, partially replacing the assistance of nursing staff by small health surveillance and communication equipment like sensors, networks, monitoring software could be cost effective and would increase life standard. The objective is to develop and implement innovative solutions based on information technologies and wireless communication for the benefit of those needing medical permanence. Recent Advances in technology has led to the development of small, intelligent, wearable sensors capable of remotely performing critical health monitoring tasks and then transmitting patient’s data back to health care centres over wireless medium. Such wireless health monitoring platforms aim to continuously monitor mobile patients needing permanent surveillance. Patients benefit from continuous ambulatory monitoring as a part of a diagnostic procedure, optimal maintenance of a chronic condition or during supervised recovery from an acute event or surgical procedure. However, to set up such platforms several issues along the communication chain should be resolved. The acquisition of medical information via a set of wireless sensors embedded in the patient himself, the treatment and use of this information either by a local contractor equipment or offset after transfer in 3G/4G/5G and/or WiFi/HEW connection to a data server, the access to the collected data, ...etc. are some of the important challenges that we have to consider. Each level represents a complex subsystem with a local hierarchy employed to ensure efficiency, portability, security, and reduced cost. MobileHealth workshop aims to provide a forum for the interaction of these multiple areas as an important chance to discuss and understand what aspects have to be considered to provide effective pervasive wireless healthcare systems. The theme of the 2018 edition of MobileHealth is /*Improving the Smart Cities Citizens Healthcare.*/ The Technical program topics include, but are not limited to: * Mobile devices for healthcare * Wearable and Implantable * Wireless sensors for healthcare * Communications and computing infrastructure for mobile healthcare apps * Protocols for wireless healthcare * Big data analytics * Realizations and Platforms * Scalability, performance and reliability of mobile healthcare apps * Pervasive Wireless communications in healthcare * Service and device discovery * Data fusion and context elaboration * Wireless monitoring and ambient assisted applications for healthcare * Standards for mobile healthcare * Energy Efficiency in wireless health monitoring * Pervasive healthcare systems and services * Authentication and sensors monitoring * Confidentiality and data security * Mobile interfaces for data visualisation *GENERAL CO-CHAIRS * Soufiene Djahel, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK Syed Hassan Ahmed, University of Central Florida, USA *TECHNICAL PROGRAM CO-CHAIRS * Mahasweta Sarkar, San Diego State University, USA Zilong Ye, California State University, Los Angeles, USA *STEERING COMMITTEE * Saadi Boudjit, University of Paris 13, France Philippe Jacquet, Bell Labs Alcatel-Lucent, France Anis Laouiti, Telecom Sud Paris, France Paul Muhlethaler, Telecom Sud Paris, France Majid Sarrafzadeh, UCLA Wireless Health Institute, USA *PUBLICITY CO-CHAIRS * Youcef Begriche, Telecom Paris-Tech, France Said Yahiaoui, Cerist Research Center, Algeria *TECHNICAL PROGRAM COMMITTEE * Marwen Abdennebi, University of Paris 13, France Sasan Adibi, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Australia Saadi Boudjit,, University of Paris 13, France Syin Chan, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore Zainul Charbiwala, IBM Research, India Mooi Choo Chuah, Lehigh University, USA Avik Ghose Tata Consultancy Services, India Roozbeh Jafari, University of Texas at Dallas, USA Anis Laouiti, Telecom SudParis, France Gustavo Marfia, University of Bologna, Italy Hassine Moungla, Paris Descartes University, France Ertan Onur, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands Amir Qayyum, CUST, Islamabad, Pakistan Kevin Stanley, University of Saskatchewan, Canada Sim-Hui Tee, Multimedia University, Malaysia Apinun Tunpsan, Asian Institute of Technology, Thailand Egon L.

There are more than 370 Million Internet users worldwide. Number of unique mobile users is almost 5 Billion, with total number of mobile connections exceeding 8 Billion. This indicates that wireless communication is a prevalent field. Different wireless technologies including mobile cellular, fixed line, wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) and others are widely used for diverse communication purposes. It is estimated that majority of user’s access Internet via a mobile device. Internet traffic is dominated by multimedia content, and its proportion is ever increasing. This increases quality of service/experience (QoS/QoE) requirements. Optimizing multiple, often conflicting goals (delay, throughput, energy etc.) is of fundamental importance in the context. With the spreading of Internet and broadening of its capacity, data is available in abundance. Many fields benefit from data to optimize decisions. A lot of datasets, related to performance and security of different wireless networks are publicly available. Depending on the type of network and application, potential research areas include but not limited to: routing, MAC layer optimizations, mobility optimization, spectrum sensing, signal classification, handover decision, power allocation and rate adaptation, performance prediction, data collection and aggregation, event detection, localization and object tracking, intrusion detection and other security issues. Potential techniques to solve such problems include but not limited to: machine learning (supervised, unsupervised and reinforcement), swarm intelligence, genetic algorithms, artificial immune system, markov decision process, and game theory. Therefore, this special issue is to focus the data driven techniques to solve wireless communication problems (e.g. related to performance, security, and applications etc.). We invite researchers from academia and industry to discuss challenging ideas and novel research contributions, demonstrate results on data driven intelligence in wireless networks and related areas. Topics of Interest: Topics of interest include, but not limited to the following: • Physical layer issues and data driven intelligence • Link layer issues and data driven intelligence • Network layer issues and data driven intelligence • Cross layer data driven optimizations • Wireless sensor networks and data driven intelligence • Cognitive radio networks and data driven intelligence • Vehicular networks and data driven intelligence • Edge/Fog Computing and data driven intelligence • Supervises and unsupervised machine learning techniques for wireless networks • Reinforcement learning techniques and wireless networks • Data driven algorithms for wireless networks Important Dates • Manuscript Submission Deadline: April 30, 2018 • Decision Notification: July 15, 2018 • Final Manuscript Submission: Sep 30, 2018 • Publication Date: Nov 2018 Guest Editors of the Special Issue Muhammad Khalil Afzal, Lead Guest Editor COMSATS Institute of Information Technology, Wah, Pakistan Email: khalilafzal(a)ciitwah.edu.pk Biography: https://sites.google.com/site/muhammadkhalilafzal/ Mubashir Husain Rehmani Waterford Institute of Technology, Ireland Email: mshrehmani(a)gmail.com Biography: https://sites.google.com/site/mshrehmani/ Yousaf Bin Zikria Yeungnam University, South Korea.

Continuing that tradition, IEEE LANMAN 2018 invites cutting-edge papers spanning both theory and experimentation. Papers are solicited in all areas of networking, but in keeping with the current research trend, this workshop’s central theme is Networking the Intelligent Edge. The intelligent edge is a platform for the deployment of low latency applications and services that can also provide compute capabilities close to the field where the service is delivered. Several vertical markets require IT services close to the field with a reliable and low latency networking glue that can intelligently determine how the different components of the service are multiplexed and delivered to the end consumer. The intimate single-track session format of the workshop encourages stimulating exchanges between researchers. The workshop is expected to be a forum for discussion of new and interdisciplinary ideas on architectures, 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 any LANMAN topic including, but not limited to, the following: Network and transport mechanisms for latency reduction Intelligent routing and forwarding Reliable transport in heterogeneous access networks Multi-path transport Load aware packet forwarding In-network caching In-network processing Packet scheduling Active queue management Context-aware networking Named-data networking Internet of things Vehicular communications Machine to machine communications Machine to human communications Group communications Secure transport for group communications Model-driven networking for intelligent edge applications Intent-based networking for intelligent edge applications API for intelligent edge applications IEEE LANMAN 2018 solicits paper submissions of Regular Papers (up to 6 pages) and Short Papers (up to 2 pages). The short papers will be presented in a poster session. Also, some of regular paper submissions may be accepted as short papers by the TPC. The page limits include all figures, tables, and references. All papers must be electronically submitted in PDF according to the guidelines in the workshop website http://www.ieee-lanman.org. The proceedings will be published by IEEE Xplore and will include both short and regular papers presented at the workshop. A Best Paper Award will be given to the paper(s) with the highest technical merit. All IEEE LANMAN 2018 technical papers and posters must be associated with an author registration at the full rate. For authors presenting multiple papers/posters, one full registration is valid for up to three papers/posters. IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper/poster from distribution after the workshop (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper/poster is not presented at the workshop.
