As the relevant environments grow increasingly diverse and dense, we encourage contributions addressing this increased heterogeneity, and ultra dense networks. Papers highlighting novel ideas that are not ready for extensive evaluations, report on new tools and platforms with limited evaluation, or topics that could be adequately described in a short format are invited for submission as short papers. Initial explorations of profound problems in developing countries that have been addressed using IoT solutions may also be appropriate short paper submissions. The conference proceedings will appear in the ACM Digital Library. Selected accepted papers will be fast-tracked to ACM Transactions on Sensor Networks (TOSN) or ACM Transactions on the Internet of Things (TIOT). SUBMISSION Submissions to EWSN 2020 must be original (i.e., not previously published) and not currently under review by any other conference or journal. EWSN 2020 will adopt a double-blind review process. Authors must make a good faith effort to anonymize their submissions to ensure that their identities are not disclosed to reviewers and reviewers are discouraged from actively working to uncover author identities. To promote early dissemination, submission to arXiv (or similar) is allowed, provided cross-citations are not made. Formatting requirements. Both full (10-12 pages) and short papers (4-6 pages) are welcome. Authors should carefully consider this choice as full papers will not be considered as short paper candidates during the review phase. Pages must use 8.5" x 11" (letter) two-column format, using 10-point type on 11-point leading, with a maximum text block of 7" wide x 9" deep with an inter-column spacing of .25".

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Special Issue: Security and Privacy in Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) Datum: Tue, 24 Sep 2019 06:30:59 +0000 Von: GEETHA THAMILARASU <geetha(a)UW.EDU> Antwort an: GEETHA THAMILARASU <geetha(a)UW.EDU> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Security and Communication Networks Journal Special Issue: Security and Privacy in Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) Call for Papers The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is an ecosystem of connected sensors, wearable devices, medical devices, and clinical systems. It enables various healthcare applications to reduce healthcare costs, provide timely medical responses, and increase the quality of medical treatment. Driven largely by advances in wireless communications, sensor networks, mobile devices, big data analysis, and cloud computing, IoMT is transforming the healthcare industry by delivering targeted and personalized medicine and by enabling seamless communication of medical data. While these increasingly ubiquitous medical devices offer several benefits, they also raise serious security and privacy concerns. Healthcare systems collect and process sensitive and often life-critical medical information and make critical decisions based on this information. Cybercriminals targeting the vulnerabilities in these IoMT devices can not only gain potential entry into the hospital network but also obtain unauthorized access to sensitive personal and healthcare information. Attacks on these connected devices can also cause significant physical harm and life-threatening damage to the patients. The goal of this special issue is to highlight state-of-the-art security research in the field of IoMT. Contributions from both academia and industry describing novel security and privacy solutions that address the unique needs of healthcare systems are welcomed. Papers presenting lightweight security solutions for resource constrained medical devices are highly encouraged. Potential topics include but are not limited to the following: * Threats and attack models in IoMT * Security risk analysis in IoMT * Wearable and implantable medical device security * Lightweight security solutions in IoMT * Intrusion detection in IoMT * Machine learning based security in IoMT * Privacy-preserving technology in IoMT * Blockchain for healthcare security in IoMT * Authentication and access control in IoMT Authors can submit their manuscripts through the Manuscript Tracking System at https://mts.hindawi.com/submit/journals/scn/spimt/.

Conf. on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks (EWSN) February 17-19, 2020 - Lyon, France http://ewsn2020.conf.citi-lab.fr/competition.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Following the success of the previous four editions, the International Conference on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks will host also this year a dependability competition to benchmark the performance of state-of-the-art low-power wireless protocols under the same settings and in harsh RF environments. ******** SCENARIO AND CATEGORIES ******** The competition scenario will emulate the operation of a wireless sensor network where several co-existing devices are crowding the RF spectrum. In particular, the messages generated by several source nodes need to be collected at a single destination in a reliable, timely, and energy-efficient way despite the presence of interference. In contrast to the previous editions, this year's competition will make use of nRF52840-DK wireless nodes. Contestants are free to use any of the technologies and physical modes supported by this platform. Two categories are planned for this year's edition: 1) Single-hop data collection. In this category, up to 20 source nodes generate raw sensor values of different length, which should be sent to the same destination. The latter is located in proximity of all source nodes and can be reached directly, i.e., in normal conditions, the sink can be reached by every source node within a single hop. 2) Multi-hop data collection. In this category, up to 60 source nodes generate raw sensor values of different length, which should be sent to the same destination. The latter may be located several hops away from a source node, even when making use of the coded PHY layers available on the nRF52. A detailed description of the scenario and evaluation procedure can be found on: http://ewsn2020.conf.citi-lab.fr/competition.html). ******** FORMAT ******** The competition will take place remotely and the final results will be announced during EWSN 2020 in Lyon. Contestants willing to participate to the competition must submit a short entry abstract describing their solution by the competition entry deadline. The entry abstracts will be used to pre-select the teams participating to the competition. Accepted contestants will participate to a remote preparation phase during which they can test and optimize their solution on the competition infrastructure. At the end of this phase, all contestants will be asked to provide a single binary file for the final evaluation phase. Each competing team will have the possibility to publish a competition abstract as part of the EWSN proceedings that will appear in the ACM Digital Library. Furthermore, a poster session dedicated to the dependability competition will take place during the main conference. The winners of each competition's category will be awarded during a dedicated plenary session of the main conference and will be able to hold a plenary short presentation about their solution. ******** ELIGIBILITY ******** Both academia and industry submissions are encouraged. Any low-power wireless protocol is eligible and there is no restriction on the operating system used to program the sensor nodes, nor on the wireless technology used. There is also no requirement on the originality of the competing solutions, which can be based on well-known protocols or previously published material. The same team can participate in multiple categories. The EWSN 2020 dependability competition will take place if at least six teams competing in the same category respond to this preliminary call. ******** SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ******** Contestants must submit a short entry abstract describing their approach by the competition entry deadline. This entry abstract should prominently include the name of all members of the team, as well as their affiliation and contact information. Furthermore, the entry abstract should clearly state the categories for which the solution is intended. All submissions will be treated as confidential until the camera-ready deadline. Detailed information about the submission instructions can be found on: http://ewsn2020.conf.citi-lab.fr/competition.html. ******** IMPORTANT DATES ******** - Competition entry deadline: October 1, 2019 (23:59, AoE) - Notification of acceptance: October 11, 2019 - Remote preparation phase: from October 28, 2019 to December 19, 2019 - Submission of the final binary file: December 20, 2019 (23:59, AoE) - Camera-ready abstract: December 20, 2019 (23:59, AoE) - Evaluation phase: from December 21, 2019 to February 16, 2020 - Awards and poster session: February 17-19, 2020 ******** ORGANIZERS ******** - Carlo Alberto Boano and Markus Schuß (TU Graz, Austria) - Nathalie Mitton (Inria, France) An extended PDF version of this call for competitors can be found at: https://tinyurl.com/y6otsd9c. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of the call --------------------------------------------------------------------- ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Special Issue Elsevier COMCOM [IF: 3.031] Deadline Approaching: Special issue on Mobile Information Centric Networking Datum: Fri, 20 Sep 2019 14:37:29 +0200 Von: chaker abdelaziz kerrache <ch.kerrache(a)LAGH-UNIV.DZ> Antwort an: chaker abdelaziz kerrache <ch.kerrache(a)LAGH-UNIV.DZ> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG *Special issue on Mobile Information Centric Networking* *Aim and scope:* Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are a breed of Self-Organized Networks (SONs). In addition to the inter-node communication, it assumes that nodes are connected to other smart objects equipped with a powerful multi-sensor platform, communication technologies, computation units, and IP-based connectivity to the Internet, thereby creating a network called Mobile Internet of Things (MIoT). MIoT applications are also based on cooperation-aware communication where information is exchanged among communicating nodes. This phenomenon advocates for a content-centric communication paradigm for MIoT applications where the focus is on information itself rather than the source and/or location of information. As a result, owing to the Future Internet Architecture (FIA), content-centric networking (CCN) and named data networking (NDN) have recently been considered to be the architectural backbones for SONs and its breeds. This Special Issue is soliciting original technical papers addressing the main research challenges in the Mobile Internet of Things and its applications over Future Internet Architectures. *Topics:* - ICN-based Wireless Networking and Internet of Things - Mobile Named Data Networking - Vehicular, Flying, and Underwater Named Data Networking - Mobile networks communication architectures and algorithms over ICN. - Security, privacy, and trust in Mobile Networks over ICN. - ICN-Enabled 5G-IoT. - ICN for delay tolerant and opportunistic networks. - Cross-layer protocol design - Multimedia communications in Mobile Networks over ICN. - Performance, scalability, reliability and efficiency of Mobile Networks communications over ICN. - Caching and Forwarding Issues in Mobile Information Centric Networks. - Testbeds and validation. *Submission instructions:* Elsevier Computer Communications submission system will be open for submissions to our Special Issue from 01 04 2019. When submitting your manuscript please select the article type “VSI: Mobile ICN”. Please submit your manuscript before 01 10 2019.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP [Deadline Extended]: 1st ACM CoNEXT Workshop on Emerging in-Network Computing Paradigms (ENCP’19) Datum: Wed, 18 Sep 2019 16:10:41 -0500 Von: Spyridon (Spyros) Mastorakis <mastorakis(a)CS.UCLA.EDU> Antwort an: Spyridon (Spyros) Mastorakis <mastorakis(a)CS.UCLA.EDU> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG (Apologies if you have received multiple copies of this email) The paper submission deadline was extended to accommodate the extension requests received from several authors. Dear Colleagues, Please consider contributing to the 1st ACM CoNEXT Workshop on Emerging in-Network Computing Paradigms (ENCP’19) to be held on 9 December 2019; Orlando, FL, USA. Workshop links: http://www.cs.umsl.edu/~encp19/ <http://www.cs.umsl.edu/~encp19/> , https://conferences2.sigcomm.org/co-next/2019/#!/workshop-encp <https://conferences2.sigcomm.org/co-next/2019/#!/workshop-encp> Scope and Topic List The integration of computing and networking is considered a promising direction to fulfill the strict low latency and high data exchange requirements of a number of new and innovative application use-cases (e.g., augmented/virtual reality, autonomous driving, drone coverage). Context-aware networking can help maximize the compute utilization at the edge increasing the network capacity. For instance, network functions may enable intelligent distribution of tasks to resources, the reuse of results from previously executed tasks, adaptability to the dynamic nature of edge ecosystems (e.g., network dynamics, bursty rates of tasks, dynamic resource availability). The ENCP workshop has the integration of networking and computing as the central theme with a focus on mechanisms for the joint optimization of networking and computing resources, infrastructure virtualization, in-network caching, compute reuse, and security and privacy concerns. The ENCP workshop has the goal of serving as a venue, where minds from the Distributed Computing, Information-Centric Networking (ICN), Network Function Virtualization (NFV), Software-Defined Networking (SDN), Edge Computing communities meet to advance the state-of-the-art in the area of systems for In-Network Computing. The workshop welcomes submissions from researchers and practitioners from academia and industry, who explore challenges and advances in architectures, algorithms, protocols, middleware, and technologies in the current or the future clean-slate Internet. We also encourage work-in-progress and position papers that describe original ideas, present new directions, or have the potential to stimulate insightful discussions. ENCP invites submissions of unpublished work on the following topics (but not limited to): • Architectures of in-network computing • In-network caching solutions • Virtualization for in-network computing systems • Network Function Virtualization (NFV) for in-network computing • Security, privacy, trust management, and access control in in-network computing architectures • Information-Centric Networking (ICN) for in-network computing • Software-Defined Networking for in-network computing • In-network computing for challenged networks (e.g., disaster scenarios) • Deployment and interoperability with traditional network architectures/functions • Network slicing for in-network computing systems • Internet of Things (IoT) for in-network computing • Pricing and billing in in-network computing systems • Highly available in-network computing systems • Management of in-network computing systems • In-network computing in the era of 5G • Scalability, performance advancements, and fault-tolerance • Tools for troubleshooting, monitoring, and validation of in-network computing systems and architectures • Innovative applications that in-network computing enables • In-network computing in public and private clouds, as well as edge computing paradigms • Resource allocation, modeling, and analysis • Applications of machine learning to in-network computing • Microservice architectures • Distributed consensus algorithms • Data processing frameworks Important dates Paper submission deadline: September 23, 2019 (11:59PM EDT) Acceptance notification: October 10, 2019 Camera-ready deadline: October 17, 2019 Workshop date: December 9, 2019 Submission details The workshop solicits papers written in the standard (2-column, 10pt ACM format). All the submissions will be double-blind and will be peer-reviewed. Per the anonymity guide, authors must remove their own names and any other information that may identify themselves to the reviewers.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] ACM HotMobile 2020: The 21st Annual International Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications, February 17-18, 2020Austin, Texas, USA Datum: Thu, 19 Sep 2019 02:54:16 -0400 Von: Yaser Jararweh <yaser.amd(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Yaser Jararweh <yaser.amd(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG [Apologies if you got multiple copies of this invitation] * ***** CORRECTION: NEW EVENT DATE ***** * The 21st Annual International Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications (ACM HotMobile 2020) https://hotmobile.org/2020/ Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE March 3-4, 2020 Austin, Texas, USA Call for Papers ACM HotMobile 2020, the Twenty-first International Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications continues the series of highly selective, interactive workshops focused on mobile applications, systems, and environments, as well as their underlying state-of-the-art technologies. HotMobile's small workshop format makes it ideal for presenting and discussing new directions or controversial approaches. We solicit submissions of papers that (1) focus primarily on systems and applications and (2) propose new directions of research, advocate non-traditional approaches to old (or new) ideas, or generate controversy and discussion. We especially encourage papers that identify fundamental open questions, advocate a new approach, offer a constructive critique of the state-of-the-art, debunk existing assumptions, report unexpected early results, report on promising but unproven ideas, or propose new evaluation methods. Novel ideas need not be supported by full evaluations; well-reasoned arguments or preliminary evaluations suffice. The program committee will explicitly favor early work and papers likely to stimulate reflection and discussion over a “6-pages conference paper.” We take a broad view of Mobile Systems research. This includes: · Novel applications, environments, and devices supporting mobility. · Operating system and distributed system support for mobile computing. · Wearable computing, internet of things, edge computing, sensing, and context-awareness. · HCI issues related to mobile computing. · Security and privacy of mobile computing. · Management, configuration, and deployment of systems supporting mobility. · Wireless technology, as it pertains to mobile systems and applications. The deadline for submissions is *October 15, 2019, 11:59pm EDT*. Acceptance notifications will be sent by December 15, 2018. Presenting at HotMobile is a good way to get early feedback on research ideas at least one year away from a full-fledged conference submission to ACM MobiSys or other high-quality conferences. A full-length paper on the same topic submitted to a conference in less than a year is unlikely to include sufficient new material and mature ideas to warrant publication. As is customary, papers must not have been published elsewhere and may not be simultaneously under submission at another venue. Papers accompanied by nondisclosure agreement forms are not acceptable and will be returned to the author(s) unread. As customary with the scientific peer review process, submissions will be handled as confidential material during the review. Submissions should contain 6 or fewer U.S. letter pages in PDF format, including all references, figures and tables. The submissions should not be anonymous. The submissions must meet the following formatting requirements: · Font size no smaller than 10pt. · Font size of the bibliography no smaller than 9pt. · Double column format with each column having dimensions 9.25 inches x 3.33 inches, a space of 0.33 inches between the two columns, and with no more than 55 lines of text per column. · Fit properly on US letter-sized paper (8.5 inches x 11 inches). We recommend the use of the "sigconf" ACM proceedings template, available at: http://www.acm.org/, with the font size of the main body amended to 10pt. An example Tex document can be found here. For more submission guidelines, please visit the conference website. Please note that it is the responsibility of the authors to ensure that the submissions are meeting all formatting requirements. The papers accepted to HotMobile 2020 will be publicly available from the workshop's website for a limited time window, as per ACM's Digital Library's Policy.
