-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: "Oteafy, Sharief" <SOTEAFY(a)DEPAUL.EDU> Gesendet: 4. Dezember 2019 17:34:33 MEZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP - IEEE ICC Workshop on Convergent IoT (C-IoT) - Dublin 2020 ----------------------------------- Call for papers ----------------------------------- 5th IEEE ICC Workshop on ** Convergent Internet of Things (C-IoT) ** Held in conjunction with IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC’20) 7-11 June 2020 Dublin, Ireland http://ciot.weebly.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Today, most industrial contenders are advocating for their versions of IoT, while mainstream research efforts address singular views of scalable sensing, massive RFID-based identification, and other topological remedies to handle the ensuing Big Data communication and sense-making processes. IoT architectures need to expand on the functional capacity and interaction of “things”; beyond sheer sensors and actuators, as they take center stage in the next generation IoT. This will facilitate the understanding, and subsequent optimization, of interdependencies of complex IoT systems. The scope of C-IoT 2020 will focus on topological remedies to handle Big Data communication and scalable IoT services. While many hurdles face synergistic IoT development, we will focus on techniques from Machine Learning to aid IoT convergence on data and information planes. As communication between heterogeneous IoT architectures is becoming a reality, it is ever more pressing to address data compatibility and information extraction from heterogeneously sourced data. This includes challenges with data representation, meta-data tagging practices, establishing quality of resource (QoR) and quality of information (QoI) measures in heterogeneously sourced IoT data. More importantly, scaling such IoT systems is inherently tied with trusting such data, and our inference in deriving knowledge from data. In its 5th iteration, this workshop will focus on machine learning (ML) techniques that will aid interoperability across IoT’s operational spectrum. That is, building on ML to aid in all stages of IoT operation, from heterogeneous resource discovery, calibration, verification, functional augmentation, and sustenance, all the way to communication/interference management and data collection, pruning and homogeneous representation. As IoT is proving to be integral to recent developments in the Tactile Internet (TI), this workshop solicits contributions that address synergy and convergence with Tactile Internet applications, interoperability at the Tactile Edge, and how IoT could leverage TI cognizance. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: · Machine Learning techniques for IoT data modeling and analysis · Enabling Tactile Internet applications over C-IoT · CloudML engines for integrating IoT devices with cloud analytics · Data management in Convergent IoT systems · Data and organization Interoperability challenges for IoT systems · Resource identification, discovery, and profiling in heterogeneous IoT · Resource sharing and actuation conflicts resolution · Quality of Information quantification in heterogeneous IoT · Agile frameworks for IoT Interoperability · Crowd-solicited IoT proliferation · IoT systems collaboration and cooperation mechanisms · Innovative IoT incentive schemes · Convergent paradigms in the Internet of Things · Non-proprietary standardization frameworks for a heterogeneous IoT · Convergent services on malleable IoT infrastructures · IoT edge analytics · IoT service orchestration and scheduling · Industrial Internet – Value creation and challenges · Legal and governance frameworks for IoT regulation Workshop Co-Chairs: ---------------------------- Maurizio Dècina – F IEEE – Politecnico di Milano, Italy Sharief Oteafy – SM IEEE – DePaul University, USA Mervat Abu-Elkheir – M IEEE – German University in Cairo, Egypt Important Dates: ----------------------- Paper Submission 20 January 2020 Acceptance Notification 20 February 2020 Camera-ready 1 March 2020 Submissions: ----------------- We seek original contributions that have neither been previously published or currently under review.

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Stanley Ewenike <stanley.ewenike92(a)GMAIL.COM> Gesendet: 2. Dezember 2019 23:40:53 MEZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] FMEC 2020 CFP: The Fifth International Conference on Fog and Mobile Edge Computing. Paris, France. April 20-23, 2020 [Apologies if you got multiple copies of this invitation] The Fifth International Conference on Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC 2020) http://emergingtechnet.org/FMEC2020/index.php Paris, France. April 20-23, 2020 (Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE France Section) *FMEC 2020 CFP:* Cloud computing provides large range of services and virtually unlimited available resources for users. New applications, such as virtual reality and smart building control, have emerged due to the large number of resources and services brought by cloud computing. However, the delay-sensitive applications face the problem of large latency, especially when several smart devices and objects are getting involved in human’s life such as the case of smart cities or Internet of Things. Therefore, cloud computing is unable to meet the requirements of low latency, location awareness, and mobility support. To solve this problem, researchers have introduced a trusted and dependable solution through the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC) to put the services and resources of the cloud closer to users, which facilitates the leveraging of available services and resources in the edge networks. By this, we are moving from the core (cloud data centers) to the edge of the network closer to the users. FMEC dependability is based on providing user centric service. The purpose of Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing is to run the heavy real-time applications at the network edge directly using the billions of connected mobile devices. Several features enable the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing to be a perfect paradigm to the aforementioned purpose, which are the dense geographical deployment of servers, supporting mobility and the closeness to users. As in every new technology, some challenges face the vision of the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing, which are the administrative policies and security concerns (i.e. secure data storage, secure computation, network security, data privacy, usage privacy, location privacy, etc). FMEC 2020 conference aims to investigate the opportunities and requirements for Mobile Edge Computing dominance. In addition, it seeks for novel contributions that help mitigating Mobile Edge Computing challenges. That is, the objective of FMEC 2020 is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange new ideas, novel results and experience on all aspects of Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC).

With the emergence of 5G and the Industrial Internet-of-Things (IoT) paradigm, is expected that the next generation of Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS) to expand well beyond the monolithic and self-contained premises model, deployed on geographically constrained spaces under the responsibility of a single operator. As a result, IACS will also evolve towards becoming multi-tenant and distributed structures involving several domains, such as cloud, edge, telecommunications infrastructure and utility providers. In this perspective, the current breed of IACS has to be improved with new tools and techniques, able to address the communications, security, scalability and reliability needs of heavily dispersed IACS. This session intends to address the relevant aspects that are involved in such domains. Currently, WFCS is the largest IEEE conference especially dedicated to communications for (industrial) automation systems. Its aim is to provide a forum for researchers, developers and practitioners to review and discuss most recent trends in the area and share innovative research directions. All papers of the Special Session will go through the regular paper submission process of WFCS, using the following link: *https://www.cister-labs.pt/wfcs2020/submit <https://www.cister-labs.pt/wfcs2020/submit>* *For this Special Session, we are seeking submissions of technical papers in the following related areas:* -Automation technologies such as SCADA systems for civilian and military uses; -5G and edge-computing for distributed automation environments; -Virtualization and multi-tenancy for communications and computing infrastructures; -Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications and network infrastructure security for IACS; -Security (auditing, protection, reaction) for IACS; -Big data technologies and machine-learning approaches for IACS-based scenarios; -Forensics and auditing techniques for IACS; -Risk and interdependency modeling for IACS; -Threat lifecycle and profiling analysis for IACS. *IMPORTANT DEADLINES:* *Special Session papers submission deadline:* 12 January 2020 *Special Session papers notification:* 2 March 2020 *Special Session final versions deadline:* 13 March 2020 *Session chairs:* Paulo Simões, Universidade de Coimbra, PT Tiago Cruz, Universidade de Coimbra, PT Leandros Maglaras, De Montfort University, UK Dr. Leandros Maglaras Director of the National Cyber Security Authority of Greece Ministry of Digital Governance Fragkoudi 11 και Al.

April 20-23, 2020 [Apologies if you got multiple copies of this invitation] The Fourth International Workshop on Smart Cities Systems Engineering (SCE 2020) <http://emergingtechnet.org/SCE2020/index.php> in conjunction with The 5th International Conference on Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC 2020) <http://emergingtechnet.org/FMEC2020/index.php> Paris, France. April 20-23, 2020 (Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE France Section) *SCE 2020 CFP* Smart cities provide next generation engineering approaches for urbanization. Smart cities aim to exploit the intellectual and social capital as its core ingredient for urbanization, in addition to the physical and ICT infrastructure. Smart cities are driven by several interdependent trends. These include a pressing need for environmental sustainability, and peoples’ increasing demands for personalisation, mobility and higher quality of life. Technological developments such as miniaturization of devices, internet of things (IoT), big data, and decreasing costs of computational entities have also accelerated the smart cities developments. Smart cities encompass all aspects of modern day life, transportation, healthcare, entertainment, work, businesses, social interactions, governance, etc. It is therefore necessary to engineer smart cities as complex systems of systems supported by a converged ubiquitous infrastructure. A key challenge in the realization of smart cities is to create an ecosystem of digital infrastructures that are able to work together and enable dynamic real-time interactions between various smart city subsystems. With this background, this workshop invites submissions that propose state of the art solutions for smart cities systems engineering. A particular focus of the workshop are the studies that involve cloud computing, fog computing, and mobile edge computing technologies. Original articles including modelling and empirical studies and development, as well as relevant surveys are welcome. The topics of interest of the workshop include, but are not limited to: * IoT based developments for smart cities engineering * Big data technologies for smart cities * Modelling and analysis of smart city technologies and systems * Mobile applications for smart cities * Analytics for smart cities * Cloud computing based approaches for smart city engineering * Fog and edge computing based approaches for smart city engineering * Cloudlet based approaches for smart city engineering * Studies focused on communication networks for smart cities * Information management for smart cities * Smart buildings, smart homes and smart energy grids * Transportation, healthcare, and governance for smart cities * Security and privacy of smart city systems *Submission* Papers selected for presentation will appear in the SCE and FMEC Proceedings, which will be submitted to IEEE Xplore for inclusion.

Conventional IoT applications assumed homogeneous networks with static devices, while future applications are envisioning heterogeneous environments with different radio hardware, where nodes may or must move. This means that IoT networks will experience topological changes, deriving from variations in the surrounding environment, such as electromagnetic noise, physical conditions (temperature, humidity, pressure), and moving entities (people, vehicles, animals, furniture, objects). Under unreliable constrained wireless networks for IoT networks, messages may frequently be lost or delayed. Consequently, as constrained devices move around different wireless networks, its connectivity may be frequently disrupted, and power can be drained rapidly due to the massive amount of signaling messages for network discovery. This can in turn result in the loss of important sensing data or imposing large delays for real-time applications such as healthcare monitoring and factory automation. Moreover, existence of a heterogeneous network will increase probability of interference for devices operating in same frequency band. Beside physical mobility, interference will also impose topological changes (known as logical mobility) in such a heterogeneous IoT network, which in turn will degrade network performance. Dealing with the dynamics of these heterogeneous IoT networks, involving mobile entities extremely resource-constrained is very challenging. The Fog Computing paradigm is an architectural enabler for designing more flexible networks. Fog computing extends the Cloud-like services to the network edge to deal with IoT devices locally to carry out most of the storage, communication, control, configuration and management.
