We have now a large variety of both wired (e.g. IEEE802.1TSN, IEEE802.1Qbu, IEEE802.1Qbv, Detnet) and wireless (e.g. IEEE802.15.4, 6TiSCH, WirelessHART, Z-Wave, WiSUN, WirelessMBUS, Bluetooth, IEEE 802.11 RTA, LoRa, ETSI LTN, mmWave) technologies to connect more and more smart and uniquely identifiable objects. After providing best-effort connectivity, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) requires a network infrastructure which supports real-time communications. Most critical applications require high-reliability, and an upper-bounded end-to-end latency has to be respected. The Industrial Internet of Things is expected to support many critical applications. Industry 4.0 will rely on wireless and wired infrastructure to interconnect all the actuators, sensors and controllers, even for the control loops. To a greater extent, IIoT is particularly relevant also for e.g. robot control loops, reliable industrial monitoring, critical operation/actuation, etc. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Resilient Systems, Dependable networking, Automated Diagnostics and Predictions; Quality of Service, Quality of Experience, Service Level Agreements; Implementation details and benchmarking of Industrial IoT protocols; Efficient communication protocols for industrial IoT; 5G: architecture, medium access, virtualization; Performance Bounds, Soft/Hard Real-time, Formal Methods; Security: privacy, policy management, IDS; OS and Middleware, industrial cloud; Real-world deployments, Lessons Learnt; Standards-based solutions, Interoperability and Integration; Seamless wired and wireless real-time infrastructure; Handling mobility in industrial networks; Interconnection of legacy and novel network technologies; Applications: reliable monitoring, low latency control, automation, robotics, etc. Manuscript Due Dec 15, 2019 First Round of Reviews March 15, 2020 Revised Paper due May 15, 2020 Final notification July 15, 2020 Submissions https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/itl <https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/itl> (select the special issue: ”Industrial Internet of Things”) Don’t wait until deadline: the manuscripts will start to be reviewed as soon as they will be received.

April 20-23, 2020 Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE France Section *FMEC 2020 CFP:* Cloud computing provides large range of services and virtually unlimited available resources for users. New applications, such as virtual reality and smart building control, have emerged due to the large number of resources and services brought by cloud computing. However, the delay-sensitive applications face the problem of large latency, especially when several smart devices and objects are getting involved in human’s life such as the case of smart cities or Internet of Things. Therefore, cloud computing is unable to meet the requirements of low latency, location awareness, and mobility support. To solve this problem, researchers have introduced a trusted and dependable solution through the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC) to put the services and resources of the cloud closer to users, which facilitates the leveraging of available services and resources in the edge networks. By this, we are moving from the core (cloud data centers) to the edge of the network closer to the users. FMEC dependability is based on providing user centric service. The purpose of Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing is to run the heavy real-time applications at the network edge directly using the billions of connected mobile devices. Several features enable the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing to be a perfect paradigm to the aforementioned purpose, which are the dense geographical deployment of servers, supporting mobility and the closeness to users. As in every new technology, some challenges face the vision of the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing, which are the administrative policies and security concerns (i.e. secure data storage, secure computation, network security, data privacy, usage privacy, location privacy, etc).

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] Software: Practice and Experience (Wiley Press) - "Resource Management of IoT Edge devices: Challenges, Techniques, and Solutions" Datum: Tue, 22 Oct 2019 16:22:36 +0200 Von: Anish Jindal <anish.jindal(a)THAPAR.EDU> Antwort an: Anish Jindal <anish.jindal(a)THAPAR.EDU> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG [*************** Apologies if you received multiple copies of the mail *******************] *Special Issue on * Resource Management of IoT Edge devices: Challenges, Techniques, and Solutions *Software: Practice and Experience (Wiley Press) * *Call for Papers * With the growth of Internet of things (IoT) paradigm, there has been a tremendous makeshift in how the distributed devices work to achieve a common goal. However, it remains essential that all these devices work in a coherent manner to perform a collective action. This makes the task of resource provisioning extremely important in such a paradigm. The end-user level in IoT mostly comprise of the low computation and communication powered devices. An improper utilization of the available resources in such a scenario burdens the complete system and degrades the quality of service. In such a scenario, the use of cloud computing techniques can help to manage the resources effectively. More so, with the emergence of relatively newer cloud-based technologies such as edge and fog computing, resource management in the IoT has become far more effective. These technologies bring the computation and communication capabilities closer to the IoT devices where some of the services can be offloaded to the edge devices. These devices are called IoT edge devices and they provide a unique opportunity to tackle some of the existing and pertinent issues for resource management in IoT paradigms; yet at the same time, they face their own set of challenges. However, the use of IoT edge devices in a traditional IoT paradigm results in better utilization of the available resources as well as improving the overall quality of service. Keeping this in mind, this special issue will address the resource management in IoT edge devices with the focus on various challenges faced, and potential techniques and solutions to address such challenges by leveraging IoT edge devices. The researchers, both at the academic and industrial level, working on resource management in IoT edge devices can share their latest results to create wider awareness about their schemes. The topics of interest include (but not necessarily limited to): - Resource provisioning using IoT edge devices - Improving quality of service using IoT edge devices - Novel architectures for integrating IoT models with edge devices - Use of advanced learning methods such as artificial intelligence and deep learning for resource management in IoT edge devices - Exploiting edge devices for computation offloading in IoT paradigms - Analysis of overheads and requirements for using IoT edge devices - Security and resilience issues in IoT edge devices *Important Dates * *Submission Due:* December 15, 2019 *Notification Due:* March 15, 2020 *Revision Due: *April 30, 2020 *Notification of Final acceptance: *May 30, 2020 *Final paper due:* June 30, 2020 *Special Issue Paper Submission * We seek submission of papers that present new, original and innovative ideas for the "first" time in SPE.

Mobile and social sensing is becoming a paradigm for collecting observations of the physical phenomena, either directly from human observers, or by means of crowd-sourcing the data measurement tasks using sensors in the smart phones or various other wearables (e.g., Google Glass, Apple Watch, and Fitbit devices). It thus involves massive amount of sensory data collection and/or dissemination where humans can act as sensor carriers (e.g., carrying GPS sensors that share location data), sensor operators (e.g., taking pictures and videos with smart phones), or as sensors themselves (e.g., sharing their observations on social media). This emerging field faces new challenges in data collection, dissemination, fusion, and mining; cognitive modeling; computational social and behavior science; information and coding theory; information processing and knowledge discovery; data dissemination and forwarding, reliability, privacy, and security; and cyber-physical-systems with human-in/on-the-loop. This special issue invites technical papers on both theoretical contributions and systems describing original ideas, exciting results, and real-world experiences in the context of mobile and social sensing. This special issue will focus on (but not be limited to) the following topics: + Mobile, ubiquitous, and pervasive sensing + Social sensing and social networks as sensor networks + Crowd/participatory and opportunistic sensing + Rural sensing + Urban sensing and smart city + Reliability, privacy, and security in mobile and social sensing + Sensing unstructured data in mobile/social domain + Modeling, analysis, fusion, and mining of social and mobile sensing data + Theory, algorithms, systems, and experiments pertaining to mobile/social sensing + Ubiquitous, mobile, and pervasive information processing and knowledge discovery + Mobile and Social Sensing Applications (i.e., Social Internet of Things, Social Internet of Vehicles) + Data mining in Mobile and Social Sensing Submission Guidelines: Manuscripts must not have been previously published nor currently under review by other journals or conferences. Papers previously published in conference proceedings are eligible for submission if the submitted manuscript is a substantial revision and extension of the conference version. In this case, authors should indicate the previous publication(s) in the cover letter and explain the enhancements made in the journal version. The published conference article(s) are also required to be submitted together with the journal version. The submission website for this journal is located at https://www.evise.com/profile/api/navigate/PMC. Please select “VSI:Mobile&SocialSensing" when you reach the "Article Type" step in the submission process.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CfP IoT - IF: 6.395 JCLEPRO (Elsevier) Datum: Fri, 18 Oct 2019 15:02:15 -0400 Von: Petar Solic <psolic(a)FESB.HR> Antwort an: Petar Solic <psolic(a)FESB.HR> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear All, please refer to the CfP for special issue on: Internet of Things (IoT): Opportunities, issues and challenges towards the smart and sustainable future in Journal of Cleaner Production (IF: 6.395) Submission Deadline: November 1, 2019 Journal webpage: https://www.journals.elsevier.com/journal-of-cleaner-production Scope and CfP direct link: https://www.journals.elsevier.com/journal-of-cleaner-production/call-for-pa… If you have any question, please do not hesitate to contact: psolic(a)fesb.hr Best regards, Petar Solic SpliTech secretary 2020.splitech.org —— Topics: (1) IoT technologies in Sustainable Energy and Environment IoT is expected to be a major producer of big data. Sharing and collaboration of data and other resources would be the key for enabling sustainable ubiquitous environments, such as smart cities and societies. A timely fusion and analysis of big data, acquired from IoT and other sources, to enable highly efficient, reliable, and accurate decision-making and management of ubiquitous environments would be a grand future challenge. Computational intelligence would play a key role in this challenge (Furqan Alam, et al. 2017). The new era of Web and IoT paradigm is being enabled by the proliferation of various devices like RFIDs, sensors, and actuators. Smart devices are embedded in the environment to monitor and collect ambient information. In smart cities, intelligent services could be offered on top of such information related to any aspect of humans' activities. Some examples of services able to guarantee sustainable environments are IoT-enabled waste management, the use of IoT hardware and software technologies for the buildings energy efficiency in terms of reducing energy consumption and improving the internal comfort, smart grids, smart homes, physical security, enhanced street lighting controls, infrastructure monitoring, public safety and surveillance in indoor and outdoor environments. (2) E-health Emerging ICT technologies are playing more and more a very important role in the Healthcare sector. The efficiency of healthcare infrastructures and biomedical systems is one of the most challenging goals of modern-day society (Nguyen et al. 2019). In fact, the need of delivering quality care to patients while reducing the healthcare costs and, at the same time, tackling the nursing staff shortage problem is a primary issue. Furthermore, innovative solutions able to support and improve the elderly people quality of life exploiting emerging technologies enabling the IoT are fundamentals to create the new smart cities, thought also for people no so young. Furthermore, the behavioral analysis of elderly people is an important science aiming to prevent Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and frailty problems. A fundamental aspect in this context is to explore the use of innovative technologies enabling the Internet of Things (IoT), above all sensors, to unobtrusively capture personal data for automatically recognizing behavioral changes in elderly people. Artificial Intelligence, based on Machine Learning or Deep Learning techniques, represents a valid candidate to face these challenges. (3) IoT technologies in Transportation and Low Carbon Products Smart transportation, also known as intelligent transportation systems, is another important IoT-based application, in which intelligent transportation management, control system, communication networks, and computing techniques are integrated to make transportation systems reliable, efficient, and secure (Lin et al., 2015). In the smart transportation system, a large number of smart vehicles are included and connected with each other through wireless networks. Smart vehicles can efficiently perceive and share traffic data and schedule drivers’ travels with great efficiency, reliability, and safety. Recently, smart vehicles with Self-Driving have been designed and tested. Those smart vehicles can detect objects around them and safely manage speed during traveling without the operation of drivers. IoT-aware technologies such as software architecture based on Cloud-, Edge-or Fog-Computing play a very important role to face these challenges. Another important topic, in the smart transportation field is related to security issue, in particular managed with the block chain approach. (4) Smart Cities Smart cities can be considered a complex IoT paradigm, which aims to manage public affairs via introducing information and communication technology (ICT) solutions (Zanella et al., 2014). Smart cities can use public resources in more efficient ways, resulting in the improvement of the QoSs provided to users and the reduction of operational costs to public administrators. Smart cities may consist of several sub applications or services, including the smart gird, smart transportation, smart hospital, smart building, smart waste management, environmental monitoring, smart health, smart lighting, etc. All these sub applications, or services, should be supported by a unified communication network infrastructure, or communication networks designed for these sub applications or services should be interconnected to establish a large-scale interconnected heterogeneous network for IoT applications, with the aim of achieving the best use of public resources in cities (Lin et al. 2017).
