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 addressing fully 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.

ACM WiSec is the leading ACM and SIGSAC conference dedicated to all aspects of security and privacy in wireless and mobile networks and their applications. In addition to the traditional ACM WiSec topics of physical, link, and network layer security, we welcome papers focusing on the increasingly diverse range of mobile or wireless applications such as Internet of Things, Cyber-Physical Systems, as well as the security and privacy of mobile software platforms, usable security and privacy, biometrics, and cryptography. The conference welcomes both theoretical as well as systems contributions. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to - Cryptographic primitives for wireless and mobile security - Data-driven security attacks and countermeasures - Economics of mobile security and privacy - Jamming attacks and defenses - Key management (agreement or distribution) for wireless or mobile systems - Lightweight cryptography primitives and protocols - Mobile malware and platform security - NFC and smart payment applications - Next generation cellular network fraud and security - Physical tracking security and privacy - Resilience and dependability for mobile and wireless networks - Reverse engineering of and tampering with mobile applications - Security and privacy for cognitive radio and dynamic spectrum access systems - Security and privacy for mobile applications (e.g., mobile sensing systems) - Security and privacy for smart devices (e.g., smartphones) - Secure localization and location privacy - Security protocols for wireless networking - Side-channel and fault attacks on smart devices - Side-channel attacks on mobile and wearable systems - Theoretical and formal approaches for wireless and mobile security - Usable mobile security and privacy - Vehicular networks security (e.g., drones, automotive, avionics, autonomous driving) - Wireless and mobile privacy and anonymization techniques - Wireless or mobile security for cyber-physical systems (e.g, healthcare, smart grid) and IoT systems - Wireless network security for critical infrastructures The proceedings of ACM WiSec, sponsored by SIGSAC, will be published by the ACM. Important dates =============== - Paper submission deadline: March 18, 2021 (23:59 AoE) - Author notification: April 29, 2021 - Camera-ready deadline: May 21, 2021 (23:59 AoE) - WiSec conference: June 28 to July 1, 2021 Full and short papers ===================== Full paper submissions to ACM WiSec 2021 can be up to 10 pages in the ACM conference style excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices, and up to 12 pages in total. ACM WiSec also encourages the submission of short papers with a length of up to 6 pages (including bibliography and appendices), which describe mature work of a more succinct nature. All papers must be thoroughly anonymized for double-blind reviewing. Detailed submission instructions are available on the WiSec 2021 website at https://nyuad.nyu.edu/wisec21. For the first time in WiSec, we solicit Systematization of Knowledge (SoK) papers that evaluate, systematize, and contextualize existing knowledge on any of the above topics. Suitable papers provide an important new viewpoint on an established research area, support or challenge long-held beliefs with compelling evidence, present a convincing new taxonomy of such an area, and/or identify research gaps with evidence and a structured approach. Survey papers without such contributions are not suitable. SoK submissions will be distinguished by the prefix "SoK:" in the title and a checkbox on the submission form. They will be reviewed by the program committee and held to the same standards as regular research papers, except instead of emphasizing novel research contributions the emphasis will be on value to the community. Accepted papers will be presented at the symposium and included in the proceedings. Posters and demos ================= WiSec will solicit submission of posters and demos. The instructions to submit posters/demos will be made available on the WiSec 2021 website. Replicability label =================== WiSec will again offer a replicability label for reproducible results. Authors are encouraged to plan ahead when running their experiments to minimize the overhead of applying for this label. The process of reviewing the work for replicability will be largely similar to the previous years. Double submissions ================== It is a policy of the ACM to disallow double/simultaneous submissions, where the same (or substantially similar) paper is concurrently submitted to multiple conferences/journals. Any double submissions detected will be immediately rejected from all conferences/journals involved. Workshops and Tutorial ================== ACM WiSec will host workshops/tutorial co-organized with the main conference. Details will be made available on the website.

However, it has also brought serious challenges such as public management of collective spaces, air pollution, traffic congestion, energy consumption, and quality of life. In this context, Urban Computing emerges as a process of acquisition, integration, and analysis of a large volume of heterogeneous data generated from different sources in urban spaces, such as portable devices, sensors, vehicles, humans, among others. Urban Computing is an interdisciplinary area that connects information and communication technology, advanced management of large volumes of data, and diverse data analysis methods to propose solutions to problems faced by cities. In addition, Urban Computing seeks to understand the nature of urban and social phenomena to better plan the future of cities and improve their inhabitants' quality of life. UrbCom aims to create a space for: (1) presentation and discussion of studies in the area of Urban Computing; (2) collaboration between researchers from different areas that, given the interdisciplinary nature, is not limited to Computer Science. **** Topics of interest (not limited to) **** Architectures and Protocols for Urban Environments Data Analysis and Mining D2D and 5G Communication in Urban Environments Data Offloading e-Governance e-Health and m-Health Green Computing in Urban Environments Heterogeneous Data Management Human Mobility Human-Computer Interaction in Urban Spaces Improving Quality of Life in the City Using Mobile Services and Big Data Intelligent Transportation Systems Internet of Things Location Based Services Participatory / Opportunistic Sensing Recommendation Systems Reliability and Security in Urban Computing Smart Cities Social Computing Urban Data Visualisation Urban Planning Using Big Data Urban Sensing Infrastructures **** General Chairs **** Leandro A.
