-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE TGCN Special Issue on Edge Intelligence for Sustainable Smart Environments Datum: Tue, 23 Feb 2021 09:36:16 +0100 Von: Carlo Mastroianni <carlo.mastroianni(a)ICAR.CNR.IT> Antwort an: Carlo Mastroianni <carlo.mastroianni(a)ICAR.CNR.IT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG **Apologies for cross postings IEEE Transactions on Green Communications and Networking Special Issue on Edge Intelligence for Sustainable Smart Environments <https://www.comsoc.org/publications/journals/ieee-tgcn/cfp/edge-intelligenc e-sustainable-smart-environments> https://www.comsoc.org/publications/journals/ieee-tgcn/cfp/edge-intelligence -sustainable-smart-environments CALL FOR PAPERS *************** Edge Computing is emerging due to the great availability of computational resources, mobile devices, sensors and actuators that are pervasively deployed and today amount to more than 7 billion interfaces with the network. It enables the pushing of computation to the edge of the network, away from data centers and close to people and data sources. Edge Intelligence derives from the convergence of Edge Computing with the smart exploitation of artificial intelligence methodologies and cognitive technologies, involving sensing/actuation, learning and reasoning on distributed data and Internet of Things devices. A new generation of smart environments, empowered with Edge Intelligence capabilities, can assist the effective management of a modern society, by combining the development of advanced services able to satisfy user needs and preferences dynamically, with undelayable aspects like better exploitation of renewable energy sources, energy optimization, environment sustainability, people's safety, quality of life and comfort. Edge Intelligence helps service provisioning, computation and communications to become efficient, green and sustainable in different ways, among which: (i) Edge Intelligence can contribute to optimize data center usage and reduce the amount of data needing to traverse the network, leading to a reduction of energy consumption and carbon emissions; (ii) applications enriched by Edge Intelligence can satisfy user needs through a more sustainable use of environmental resources; (iii) based on predictions performed by Edge Intelligence algorithms, data and computation can be brought closer to the sites where green energy is available. Edge Intelligence offers an unprecedented opportunity to offer cutting edge services to individuals and organizations and, at the same time, to contrast the continuous growth in the exchange of data and use of communication and network infrastructures. The energy consumption and the greenhouse gas emissions related to ICT technologies are estimated to amount, respectively, to 3% and 4% of the total, and these figures are being further increased by the Covid 19 pandemic. This Special Issue aims to be a valuable venue for novel and original research works in the field of Edge Intelligence and its exploitation for the design and development of sustainable and smart environments like smart cities and cognitive buildings. *************** TOPICS - green communication and networking for edge intelligence - edge intelligence in energy-efficient internet of things - edge and fog computing for green smart environments - mobile edge computing for green smart environments - energy-efficient computation, communication, and caching at the edge - energy-efficient coordination and orchestration of the intelligence at the edge - edge intelligence for energy-efficient resource management - edge intelligence supported by green clouds and data centers - sustainable continuum computing between the edge and the cloud - simulation and analysis techniques for sustainable edge intelligence - green and energy-efficient internet of things - energy optimization for edge intelligence - artificial intelligence and machine learning for sustainable smart systems - green artificial intelligence for edge systems - energy harvesting, storage, and recycling in sustainable smart systems - deployment, management and maintenance of sustainable edge intelligent systems - edge intelligence for green and energy-efficient smart cities - edge intelligence for green and energy-efficient smart buildings - edge intelligence exploiting green mobile computing and 5G - cyber security, data privacy and integrity in green edge systems - securing the integrity of devices for sustainable edge systems - use of blockchains in sustainable edge systems - trusted and verifiable services for sustainable intelligent systems at the edge - energy-efficient cognitive radio for satellite and terrestrial networking SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Authors need to follow the manuscript format and an allowable number of pages described at the IEEE TGCN Information for Authors page: <https://www.comsoc.org/publications/journals/ieee-tgcn/ieee-transactions-gr een-communications-and-networking-information> https://www.comsoc.org/publications/journals/ieee-tgcn/ieee-transactions-gre en-communications-and-networking-information To submit a manuscript for consideration for the Special Issue, please visit the journal submission website at Manuscript Central <https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tgcn> https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tgcn IMPORTANT DATES: Manuscript submission: 15 May 2021 First Review Results: 15 July 2021 Second Review Results: 31 August 2021 Publication: December 2021 (tentative) Guest Editors: Franco Cicirelli, ICAR-CNR, National Research Council of Italy, <mailto:franco.cicirelli@icar.cnr.it> franco.cicirelli(a)icar.cnr.it Min Jia, Harbin Institute of Technology, China, <mailto:jiamin@hit.edu.cn> jiamin(a)hit.edu.cn Sabita Maharjan, University of Oslo, Norway, <mailto:sabita@ifi.uio.no> sabita(a)ifi.uio.no Carlo Mastroianni, ICAR-CNR, National Research Council of Italy, <mailto:carlo.mastroianni@icar.cnr.it> carlo.mastroianni(a)icar.cnr.it Ian Taylor, University of Notre Dame, IN, USA and Cardiff University, UK, <mailto:ian.j.taylor@nd.edu> ian.j.taylor(a)nd.edu Carlo Mastroianni ICAR-CNR Via P.

Cutting-edge papers spanning both theory and experimentation are solicited in all areas of networking. In keeping with the heritage of the symposium, there will be a central theme, and in 2021 the theme is “Networking in the New Normal.” The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the world to a new normal. Not only are research, business, education, and entertainment being shifted online, but also many of our daily activities are. Recent technological advances in networking present unique opportunities to bring us to this new normal. At the same time, they still pose numerous challenges to be addressed, such as scalable and pervasive connectivity, sustainable networking, and new application paradigms for online activities. The intimate single-track format of the symposium encourages stimulating exchanges between researchers. The event is expected to be a forum for discussion of new and interdisciplinary ideas on network access protocols, network management and control, services and applications. Speculative and potentially transformative ideas are particularly encouraged, as are studies reporting measurements from real-life networks and testbeds. Papers are solicited on any topic in networking, including, but not limited to: Networking for online education and entertainment Networking protocols and architectures for the IoTs Machine-to-machine communication Cloud, edge and fog computing integration Co-existence and heterogeneity support at the edge (HetNets) Energy efficiency for local and metropolitan area networking 5G and 6G localization, device-free localization, and privacy-aware localization Information security for local and metropolitan area networking Intelligent routing, forwarding, and scheduling Named data networking Network and transport mechanisms for latency reduction Network virtualization in local and metropolitan areas Performance and reliability of local and metropolitan area networks Software-defined networking in local and metropolitan areas IEEE LANMAN 2021 solicits paper submissions of papers up to 6 pages.

The objective of the workshop is to gather ns-3 users and developers, together with networking simulation practitioners and users, and developers of other network simulation tools, to discuss the ns-3 simulator and related activities. As in past years, the conference organizers will apply to ACM to publish accepted papers in the ACM ICPS series. WNS3 invites authors to submit original high quality papers presenting different aspects of developing and using ns-3. In such papers, reproducibility and methodology will be a key reviewing criteria, as explained below. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: - new models, devices, protocols and applications for ns-3 - using ns-3 in modern networking research - comparison with other network simulators and emulators - speed and scalability issues for ns-3 - multiprocessor and distributed simulation with ns-3, including use of GPUs - validation of ns-3 models - credibility and reproducibility issues for ns-3 simulations - user experience issues of ns-3 - frameworks for the definition and automation of ns-3 simulations - post-processing, visualisation and statistical analysis tools for ns-3 - models ported from other simulators to ns-3 - using real code for simulation with ns-3 and using ns-3 code in network applications - integration of ns-3 with testbeds, emulators, and other simulators or tools - using ns-3 API from programming languages other than C++ or Python - porting ns-3 to unsupported platforms - network emulation with ns-3 - using ns-3 in education and teaching We also solicit novel papers with a focus on an industrial application of ns-3 (use of ns-3 within industry). Papers in this category must address these questions: - What specific R&D questions did you or do you want to answer by simulation? - Why and how did you choose ns-3 as the appropriate tool for your application? - What surprises did you find, in correctness/behavior? in implementation? in learning curve? - What are the remaining barriers to fully addressing your R&D questions? - What general capabilities would have made your work easier/faster? Papers must be written in English and must not exceed 8 pages. Every paper will be peer-reviewed. At least one author of each accepted paper must register and present the work at the workshop. Submission instructions Authors should submit papers through EasyChair in PDF format, complying with ACM “sigconf” Proceedings format. Submitted papers must not have been submitted for review or published (partially or completely) elsewhere. Acceptance Criteria Papers will be accepted based on the relevance, novelty, and impact of the contribution, as well as the quality of writing and presentation. Authors presenting new ns-3 models, frameworks, integration setups, etc. are encouraged to include all traditional parts of a scientific paper: introduction, motivation, related work, assumptions, verification and validation, conclusions and references. As a general rule, papers that only document source code will be rejected. Authors presenting networking research using ns-3 are encouraged to follow best simulation practices and focus particularly on the credibility and reproducibility of simulation results. We strongly encourage authors of all papers, demonstrations, and posters to include links to relevant source code and instructions on how to use it. This will make contributions more useful for the ns-3 community. If code has been submitted through the ns-3 merge request process, or published as a module in the ns-3 app store, please list the link(s). This will be considered a plus Please do not hesitate to contact the workshop chairs if you are uncertain whether your submission falls within the scope of the workshop. Copyright Policy Authors will have their paper published in the ACM Digital Library, which will require copyright transfer to ACM under their normal terms and conditions. In the spirit of open source, we encourage authors of published papers to exercise their right to publish author-prepared versions on their respective home page, on a publicly accessible server of their employer, or on a pre-print server. Upon request, we will provide links from the WNS3 program on the ns-3 web site to the author-prepared version. Plagiarism Policy We follow the ACM standards and conduct regarding plagiarism. Reviewing Process Conflict of Interest Policy Reviewers will follow the IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking Conflict-of-Interest Guidelines. Authors are requested to identify potential conflicts-of-interest among the workshop’s technical program committee. Demonstrations and Short Talks In addition to the regular paper track, we will organize an exhibition-style demonstration and short talks session. The aim is to foster interactive discussions on work-in-progress, new problem statements, ideas for future development related to ns-3, and display innovative prototypes. A Call for Short Talks and Demos page will be posted at a later date. Accepted short talk and demo abstracts will be published on the ns-3 web site. At least one author of each accepted demo/short talk must register and present the work at the workshop. Awards One Best Paper will be selected by the TPC chairs and will be announced at the workshop. Registration Registration information will be posted at a later date. More information on these will be announced at a future date.
