December 6-9, 2021 *IoTNAT 2021 CFP* The Internet of Things (IoT) technology offers unprecedented opportunities to interconnect human beings as well as Machine-to-Machine (M2M), whereby sensors and networks allow all ‘things’ to communicate directly with each other to share vital information allowing us to have an instrumented universe where accurate data is readily available to inform optimal decision making. The IoT is about to enable a range of new capabilities and services far beyond today’s offerings. It will fundamentally change how people go about their lives. According to Gartner, the number of objects connected to the Internet is set to reach 20 billion by 2021. Cisco estimates the number will be close to 26 billion objects by 2021. Others believe the actual number will be even higher with the assumption that any object with a simple micro controller and on-off switch will be connected to the Internet in the near feature. The scale of the IoT is set to have a major economic, social and environmental impacts; the intersection of which forms the future sustainable growth.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE Access Special Issue - Internet of Space: Networking Architectures and Protocols to Support Space-Based Internet Services Datum: Mon, 27 Sep 2021 14:30:22 +0000 Von: Tomaso de Cola <Tomaso.deCola(a)DLR.DE> Antwort an: Tomaso.deCola(a)DLR.DE An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG (apologize for cross-posting) IEEE Access Special Issue - Internet of Space: Networking Architectures and Protocols to Support Space-Based Internet Services Submission Deadline: 30 November 2021 IEEE Access invites manuscript submissions in the area of Internet of Space: Networking Architectures and Protocols to Support Space-Based Internet Services. This Special Section is focused on the most recent scientific research and insights on the evolution of communication architectures and protocols for an Internet of Space, able to boost the creation of a truly global Internet by means of the integration of the current Internet with a new Internet of Space. Such evolution is expected to have a significant impact on several markets such as IoT/Industrial IoT, Mobile services, Industry 4.0, Government enterprise, and Connected mobility. The section shall cover work focused on aspects such as how to support the operation of Tier-1, Tier-2 or even Tier-3 airborne/spaceborne networks; how to address interoperability, within and across different protocol layers in the network architecture, leveraging cross-layer design; and finally how to design a more unified next generation Internet architecture able to transparently include spaceborne and airborne platforms in a way that allows for user-centric services, and a smooth operation of transient networks. However, an original and competent Internet of Space, calls for the definition of a networking framework able to accommodate specific properties of dynamic systems, including heterogeneous physical layers, frequent changes in network topology, high propagation delays, and intermittent connectivity. The dominant success factor for such a networking framework is low-cost bandwidth, although its capability to support low latency and high-throughput services plays an important role. Secondly, a global Internet is only possible with a transparent integration of an Internet of Space with the current Internet, while supporting multi-tenants, multi-systems in different orbits and altitudes, as well as multiple markets. Such an integration requires rethinking the Internet architecture in order to extend its operation to all systems above the Earth's surface, which requires the integration of heterogeneous communication devices and protocols. Such a unifying networking framework will have a truly global reach, allowing the connection between information producers and consumers in any corner of Earth and Space. Last but not least, the seamless integration of an Internet of Space with the current Internet will lead to a global empowerment, providing information access to everyone who may need it to sustain enriched human life, while mitigating some of the major limitations of a network infrastructure that is built on Earth's surface, which is subjected not only to geographic limits but also to political limits. >From a technical perspective this Special Section is focused on the design and performance evaluation of networking architectures and protocols for the Internet of Space, as well as on a more unified design that best deals with the networking challenges to be faced. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Network architectures, able to support multi-tenants, multi-systems in different orbits and altitudes, as well as multiple markets, while being transparently integrated in the current Internet architecture. Such new, unifying, network architecture may require the exploitation of paradigms such as Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN), and Information Centric Networking (ICN). * Network virtualization, leveraging well-known technologies such as Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV), as well as their integration with the emerging concept of Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC), allowing the virtualization of networking, storage and computing fabrics at the edge, required for the offloading of tasks that have latency constraints from the core to the edge. * Decentralized Internet Infrastructure, allowing a scalable Internetworking between computing processes and service hosted at the network edge (including flying platforms and spaceborne platforms, such as smart satellite constellations), leading to an end-to-end latency reduction due to user proximity, as well as a reduction of network traffic through traffic localization and device-to-device communications. * Network management, such as support for the global orchestration of network functions on board spaceborne platforms (e.g., satellites) to best support data processing and aggregation; seamless interoperation of mobile Edge infrastructure and devices; resilience and seamless adaptation based on the capability to anticipate the behavior of services on a global scale. * Cognitive networking, in which programmable spaceborne networks allow networked devices to perform customized computation, including the usage of Artificial Intelligence. Such cognitive functions will be exploited to develop more intelligent, adaptive networks, able to perceive network conditions, decide upon those conditions, and learn from the consequences of its actions. * Networking protocols, including support for inter-satellite communications, and satellite to ground communications, Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE), integrated security, and mobility, and their integration with existing protocols such as IP routing (e.g. segment routing), transport protocols from the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) to Quick UDP Internet Connections (QUIC), and application protocols such as Domain Name Service (DNS). * Wireless technologies, including not only the usage of radio frequency systems but also free space optical systems, and a combination of both. * Network measurement & performance, to assist in understanding and exposing the performance of spaceborne networking resources, infrastructure, and available communication protocols in a variety of ground-to-space, inter-satellite communication scenarios. * Privacy, security and trustworthiness, assuming end-to-end scenarios involving satellites with computational and storage capabilities, and covering aspects such as data security, decentralized trust architectures. * Impact on Internet services, such as advanced IoT services (e.g., Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality in manufacturing or farming) served by spaceborne platforms and spaceborne communications; real-time IoT applications (e.g., critical monitoring of public infrastructures); awareness services (e.g., public safety services). * Impact on data management aspects, including the support of the next generation of Edge computing in space, as well as a fast cooperation between a large set of Edge-based producers of data. We also highly recommend the submission of multimedia with each article as it significantly increases the visibility and downloads of articles. Associate Editor: Rute C.

Accepted manuscripts will be published without waiting for later submissions.]* ================= MDPI Drones (ISSN 2504-446X), https://www.mdpi.com/journal/drones Special Issue on *Unmanned Aerial Vehicle-Assisted Cooperative Air and Ground Communications* *=================* *Dear Colleagues and Friends,*We are pleased to announce the new Special Issue on the topic of "Cooperative Air and Ground Communications". https://www.mdpi.com/journal/drones/special_issues/UAVCommunication ================= *Call for Papers* Drones, or what is commonly known as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), could be involved in a wide range of applications, spanning from the agricultural domain, disaster management, and on-demand emergency communications, to environmental monitoring, 3D mapping, and remote sensing. With the recent advent of beyond 5G (B5G) and upcoming 6G networks, UAVs have seen impressive growth of demand from researchers, practitioners, and investors in multidisciplinary fields, particularly in relation to the design of alternative UAV-assisted solutions to handle the different constraints encountered in traditional protocols, applications, and systems. For instance, UAVs could be deployed as relays to bridge communication gaps of terrestrial networks witnessing instability on data transmission, such as base stations, to extend the coverage and performance of 5G/B5G terrestrial cellular networks, and as data collectors to gather information from Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, the assistance of UAVs to such systems and applications always raises a lot of exciting new challenges in terms of energy consumption, positioning and trajectory optimization, communications, and security, just to name a few. From the B5G point of view, the current UAV assistance paradigms should also be revised to explicitly consider different features, such as computing, network management, intelligent decisions, and energy efficiency. The potential of the UAV assistance paradigm paves a path towards many advantages, including flexibility of deployment, reduced risk of dangerous environments, agility in missions, and efficiency in communications. However, various open challenges are still to be tackled to ensure its correct deployment. This Special Issue (SI) targets novel scientific ideas, schemes, results, possible applications, and new challenges and perspectives devoted to the UAV assistance paradigm and everything around UAV networks. The particular topics of interest for this SI include but are not limited to: 1. Networking solutions for UAV-assisted communications. 2. Cloud, fog, and edge computing architecture for UAV-assisted systems. 3. SDN and NFV for UAV communications. 4. Positioning and trajectory optimization for UAV-assisted systems. 5. Machine learning algorithms for UAV-assisted systems. 6. UAV-to-everything (U2X). 7. Testbed and validation for UAV-assisted systems. 8. Energy efficiency in UAV-assisted applications. 9. Energy harvesting in UAV-assisted systems. 10. Mobile edge computing in UAV-assisted systems. 11. NDN in UAV-assisted systems. 12. Data gathering in UAV-assisted networks. 13. Security, trust, and privacy in UAV-assisted networks. 14. UAV–UGV coordination. 15. UAV–IoT networks. 16. UAV-enabled smart city. 17. UAV-assisted VANETs, MANETs, WSNs, and cellular networks. * Deadline for manuscript submissions: 30 November 2021 * * [Earlier submissions will be handled as they come. Accepted manuscripts will be published without waiting for later submissions.] * Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. We are looking forward to hearing from you. *Guest Editors: * Prof. Abderrahmane Lakas, United Arab Emirates University, UAE. Prof. Mohammed Atiquzzaman, University of Oklahoma, USA.
