In order for these technologies to be accepted by laypersons, they must be user-friendly. This is made possible by increasingly sophisticated human-machine interfaces of today's information and communication (ICT) systems. Such systems, on the one hand, communicate with humans, on the other hand they require external services which they obtain from a globally networked environment. Therefore, "communication" in such settings refers to both the communication between technical systems as well as the communication between ICT systems and humans. While the reliance on external services offers great opportunities for the development and deployment of adaptive algorithms, it also comes with risks, both for security and safety. The challenges inherent in this research area cover various disciplines of computer science ranging from embedded systems, systems engineering, telecommunication, mobile computing, computational theory, cryptography, computer graphics and computer vision to artificial intelligence. The SENSYBLE workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners from various disciplines of computer science who work in the area of enhancing living environments with information and communication technologies. It is organized by the SENSYBLE doctoral college, a joint research initiative by the Computer Science and Mathematics department of the Goethe-University / Frankfurt am Main and the department of Design, Computer Science, Media (DCSM) of the RheinMain University of Applied Sciences / Wiesbaden. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following topics: * Self-X properties (self-organization, self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing, self-protection, self-integration) * Cryptography for authenticity, integrity and anonymity * Safe and secure embedded systems * Multi-modal data analytics * Multisensor and evolutionary user interfaces and embodied interaction * Visualization and usability aspects of self-organizing systems * Internet of Things and Middleware for context-sensitive, adaptive services * Engineering of distributed smart systems * Software engineering and business aspects of smart system development * Applications, e.g. intelligent assistive systems for health care Submissions that focus on a holistic view and vertical integration aspects of smart systems for better living environments are particularly welcome. Visit for further details. <http://www.cs.hs-rm.de/~kaiser/events/sensyble20/> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Co-Located with INFORMATIK 2020* SENSYBLE 2020 is a workshop held at the 50th Informatiktagung 2020, the annual conference and the most important meeting point of the Gesellschaft fuer Informatik (GI) e.V., the largest computer science association in the German-speaking world.

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Ramona Marfievici <ramona.marfievici(a)ALUMNI.UNITN.IT> Gesendet: 9. März 2020 17:28:34 MEZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [NewNets 2020] Call for Papers Call for Papers 2nd Workshop on Emerging Technologies and Trends in Engineering Low-Power Networks (NewNets - co-located with WoWMoM) June 15-18, 2020 - Cork, Ireland https://newnets2020.github.io/ AIMS AND SCOPE A founding pillar of the IoT concept is the availability of low-cost low-power devices with wireless technologies providing sensing, communication, and actuation. In the past decade, the research community have produced proven solutions to build low-power mesh networks. Traditionally, the focus has been on short-range radio communication (e.g., ZigBee, Bluetooth, and ZWave.). An appealing alternative that have gained momentum in the IoT landscape, is to equip the nodes with long-range low power radio modules. As a result, long-range radio communication technologies (e.g., SigFox, LoRa, NB-IoT, and 802.15.4g) are considered as candidate technologies for many low-power wide area network (LPWAN) applications, especially those that require extended coverage such as citywide sensing, environmental monitoring, or remote infrastructure monitoring. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the field of IoT from both academia and industry, to discuss and explore short- and long-range solutions, the tradeoffs between these two paradigms, as well as how they can be used in synergy. In order to push the state of the art, several points need to be addressed: new features for the long-range technologies (i.e., over-the-air updates, roaming), radio resource management, regulations and policies on spectrum usage and sharing, business case analysis that are more well suited for certain vertical markets. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - protocol design - hardware platform design - modeling and analysis of low-power short or/and long-range communication - reliability, adaptability, and dependability of short and long-range communication solutions - new features for the long-range technologies (i.e., over-the-air updates, roaming) - wake-up radios for short- or/and long-range technologies - radio resource management - applications domains (e.g., smart cities, smart health, smart buildings, smart transportation) - deployment experiences, case studies, and lessons learned - evaluation and testbeds - regulations and policies on spectrum usage and sharing - business case analysis that are more well suited for certain vertical markets. SUBMISSION AND FORMATTING Submitted papers must contain between 4 and 6 single spaced U.S. letter pages, including all figures, tables, and references. All submissions must be written in English.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CfP SCIRS 2020 - International Workshop on Smart Computing,for Industrial and Real-World Systems, co-located with Smart Comp Datum: Mon, 9 Mar 2020 07:45:52 +0100 Von: Carlo Giannelli <gnncrl(a)UNIFE.IT> Antwort an: Carlo Giannelli <gnncrl(a)UNIFE.IT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG *SCIRS - International Workshop on Smart Computing for Industrial and Real-World Systems** *http://lia.deis.unibo.it/SCIRS/ *Paper Submission Deadline: 22 March 2020* Location: Bologna, Italy Date: 22-25 June 2020 Co-located with Smart Comp 2020 The spread of the Internet of Things (IoT) in industrial environments has fostered the development of new Industrial IoT (IIoT) applications and, more in general, the advent of the Industry 4.0 revolution. The current trend is towards the development of connected machines able to interact with each other as well as to send data and access cloud and Internet services. In particular, real-world industrial use cases are usually characterized by stricter Quality of Service (QoS) requirements compared with traditional IoT applications, especially in terms of reduced latency, limited (or no) packet loss, wide and guaranteed bandwidth. Moreover, the integration of consolidated Operational Technology (OT) processes and relatively novel Information Technology (IT) services poses novel challenging issues in terms of safety and security (e.g., cyber-attacks could compromise the functionalities of machines also representing a risk for human operators). Smart components and services within industrial environments represent a novel and promising solution not only to better support QoS requirements, but also to more easily reconcile safety requirements of OT with the openness and dynamicity typical of the IT. Moreover, the emergence of edge devices equipped with relatively high computational, memory, and storage capabilities facilitates the adoption of these technologies. They are not only able to increase the efficiency of existing industrial processes, e.g., by more promptly identifying faulty machines to reduce the downtime and maximize OLE/OEE KPIs, but also to provide new business opportunities, e.g., by widening the market offering industrial equipment based on pay-per-use fees. This workshop aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners interested in or working on innovative solutions for smart services in industrial environments. Experimental use cases based on real-world testbeds are particularly welcome. Topics of interests include but are not limited to: * Real-world industrial shifting from Cloud to Fog computing * Novel architectures for smart computing * Middleware platforms for real-world industrial smart computing * Integration between mobile systems and industrial smart infrastructures * ML/AI and Edge computing in real-world shop floors * Machine-to-machine communication, integration, and cooperation * IoT systems for smart industrial applications * Cyber-resiliency of industrial applications * IT/OT integration and security * Blockchain in industrial environments * 5G for industrial business cases * Innovative business models for real-world industrial smart computing Paper submissions should be no longer than 6 pages (including references) and formatted according to the IEEE conference template. Papers must be submitted electronically through EDAS at https://edas.info/N27132 as PDF files. All submitted papers will be subject to peer reviews by Technical Program Committee members and other experts in the field. All presented papers will be published in the SmartComp2020 conference proceedings and submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. All accepted papers will be EI indexed.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE Trans. on Sustainable Computing Special Issue on Energy-Efficient Edge Computing Datum: Sun, 8 Mar 2020 15:56:54 +0000 Von: Daniel Grosu <dgrosu(a)WAYNE.EDU> Antwort an: Daniel Grosu <dgrosu(a)WAYNE.EDU> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS =============== ================================================ IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Computing Special Issue on Energy-Efficient Edge Computing ================================================ The future increase in the amount of data and workloads generated by Internet of Things (IoT) devices and connected sensors will lead to the necessity to move computational nodes from the cloud data centers closer to the data source, i.e., at the edge of the cloud, for reduced latency. An edge system is composed of any computing and networking resources along the path between data sources and cloud data centers. Depending on the specific computing needs, edge computing devices can use either a wireless or a wired connection to exchange messages with the data sources. IoT devices and sensors can then exploit the hierarchical structure of the edge and cloud system to analyze the collected data and provide useful information to users in a timely manner. For example, wearable sensors could use the computing resources of the user’s smartphone, laptop, or even smart vehicle to analyze the collected data. Because a large majority of edge devices are battery operated and have limited connectivity, the energy efficiency of computation becomes critical. To this end, it is important to minimize the energy consumption of all the components of an edge system, including sensors, IoT devices, edge nodes, and network devices while guaranteeing the desired performance. For this special issue we solicit original experimental, conceptual, and theoretical contributions on the following topics related to energy-efficient edge computing: - energy-aware application placement and offloading - energy-aware resource management - energy-aware data management - energy-aware edge2cloud coordination - energy-aware sensing for edge computing systems - energy-efficient hardware architectures for edge computing and devices - energy-efficient edge computing for AI applications - energy-efficient edge computing applications - edge computing powered by distributed renewable energy resources - energy-efficient vehicular edge computing - energy-efficient edge computing for autonomous robots - energy-efficient networks for edge computing Submission Guidelines: ---------------------- Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts via the online system (https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tsusc-cs). The manuscript must follow the IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Computing author guidelines (https://www.computer.org/web/tsusc/author). When submitting the manuscript please select the special issue on Energy-Efficient Edge Computing. The submission should be original work by the authors, not be published or currently submitted for publication elsewhere. Important Dates: ---------------- Submission deadline: March 15, 2020 Preliminary notification: July 15, 2020 Revision deadline: August 15, 2020 Final notification: September 15, 2020 Publication: April - June 2021 (subject to editorial calendar) Guest Co-Editors: ----------------- Daniel Grosu, Wayne State University, USA. <dgrosu(a)wayne.edu> Jiannong Cao, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong <csjcao(a)comp.polyu.edu.hk> Marco Brocanelli, Wayne State University, USA. <brok(a)wayne.edu> ========================================================================= ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
