-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] [iscc2005] SIUMI Workshop (within IEEE ICDCS'05) Date: Wed, 29 Sep 2004 15:17:53 +0200 From: Paolo Bellavista <pbellavista(a)deis.unibo.it> To: ISCC2005(a)mail.ing.unibo.it Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this Call-for-Papers _________________________________________________________________________ Call for Papers: 1st International Workshop on Services and Infrastructure for the Ubiquitous and Mobile Internet SIUMI 2005 In conjunction with the 25th Int. Conference on Distributed Computing Systems (ICDCS'05) Columbus, Ohio, USA, June 6th, 2005 ( Web site: http://lia.deis.unibo.it/siumi/ pdf version of the SIUMI'05 cfp: http://lia.deis.unibo.it/siumi/cfp.pdf ) Advances in mobile and wireless communication are enlarging and enhancing the services provided by the Internet infrastructure towards any time, any place and any device features. Ubiquitous services impose new requirements to the entire infrastructure, from the system to the middleware and the applications that should be able to adapt traditional services to different mobile user terminals and profiles, and embed new functions and tools to support the new services and new requirements of the future scenario. The new Internet service infrastructure can only succeed on the basis of a strict synergism between the heterogeneous variety of mobile wireless devices and the fixed network organization that should suite and follow the requirements and constraints imposed by the wireless and mobile counterpart. The specific limitations of mobile wireless devices, such as discontinuity in connections, disconnection, and energy and resource shortages, connected with the new location- and context-sensitivity property, are challenging issues that call for a re-examination on the design of the middleware of both the fixed and the mobile counterpart. Only a new methodology to produce a synergic design of an integrated and unified middleware can permit the deployment of all viable and available services that make possible to consider new properties for fruition, mainly connected with the new features of context-awareness. Many different provisioning scenarios are on the way, from the possibility of providing non-strict real-time data streaming adapted to very different wireless devices, by taking advantage of caching and multicast wherever possible, to a possibility of creating dynamic and impromptu communities based on common current locality and on presently available heterogeneous devices, by taking into account different resources and energy consumption limitations. This first workshop intends to put together different experiences by providing a forum for researchers and engineers in academia and industry to compare and exchange new ideas, research results, experiences, and products about different aspects related to Ubiquitous and Mobile Internet. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: * Distributed platforms * Content delivery architectures * Caching and replication * Peer-to-peer schemes * Context-based services and applications * Middleware and software supports * Mobile-enabled middleware mechanisms * Personalization and transcoding * Mobile code and mobile agent technology * Service deployment and adaptation * Resource discovery algorithms * Performance evaluation * Resource and network monitoring * Security issues * QoS-based protocols and servers * Resource and service management PAPER SUBMISSION SIUMI 2005 invites authors to submit original and unpublished work. Papers must be written in English and should not exceed 8 pages in IEEE proceedings style. Authors should submit a PostScript or PDF file through the submission Web site (http://lia.deis.unibo.it/siumi/). Submission implies that at least one of the authors will register and present the paper. Accepted papers will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. Emails and hard copies will be accepted only if motivated reasons prevent electronic submission.

IFIP/IEEE IM'2005 Application Sessions CFP - Deadline 2004Oct 01 3 days to go! Apologies if you receive duplicates ================================================== Call for IM'2005 Application Sessions Presentations Submission Deadline - 2004 October 01 Application Session submissions are currently sought. Your experience, lessons-learned, business cases, implementation examples, new applications, innovative enterprises, organizational impacts, in any of the detailed topics below. Papers for the Application Sessions should be written in English. The paper format should have a visual in the upper half of a page and the explanatory text in the lower half. Paper submissions should consist of no more than 15 annotated visuals in PDF only. Detailed author instructions are available on the author information page on the conference web site. Submission: 1 October 2004, midnight (GMT) Notification: 26 November 2004 Camera Ready: 15 January 2005 www.im2005.org The Ninth IFIP/IEEE International Symposium on Integrated Network Management (IM 2005) will be held 16-19 May 2005 in Nice, France. IM 2005 will present the latest technical advances in the area of management, operations and control of networks, networking services, networked applications, and distributed systems. Held in odd-numbered years since 1989 and taking turns with its sibling conference NOMS, IM 2005 will build on the successes of its predecessors and serve as the primary forum for technical exchange among the research, standards, vendor and user communities in the network management field. The symposium is sponsored by the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) Working Group 6.6 on Management of Networks and Distributed Systems, and by the IEEE Communications Society Technical Committee on Network Operations and Management (CNOM). We are witnessing the dawn of a new era in networking. New networked worlds emerge in which connectivity becomes increasingly ubiquitous and the infrastructure blends in seamlessly with business functions, applications, and the supported environment. These new worlds are characterized by properties such as convergence, context awareness, accelerated service lifecycles, virtualization of resources, massive P2P infrastructures, and unprecedented security challenges. Further, new types of networks are emerging such as sensor, agent, storage-area, and grid-based networks. All of this incurs new challenges and opportunities for network management and the ways in which it is approached, requiring management technology to evolve as rapidly as the new networked worlds.IM 2005 will be organized into technical sessions, panels, and tutorials. In addition, it will feature an industrial experience track to share practical lessons learned by the user and vendor communities, posters, birds-of-a-feather sessions, and vendor exhibits. In the tradition of previous events, we strive to make the IM 2005 Symposium the highest quality professional event of the year. Paper submissions will undergo a stringent review process implemented by the Technical Program Committee, which includes many of the most respected experts in the field. Detailed submission instructions are available on the symposium Web site, http://www.ieee-im.org/.

[Fwd: WMAN 05: 1st Call for Papers]
by Lars Wolf 28 Sep '04

28 Sep '04

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: WMAN 05: 1st Call for Papers Date: Tue, 28 Sep 2004 14:29:52 +0300 (EEST) From: Ioannis Chatzigiannakis <ichatz(a)cti.gr> To: ichatz(a)cti.gr [Apologies for multiple postings] 1st Call for Papers 5th IEEE International Workshop on Algorithms for Wireless, Mobile, Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks (IEEE WMAN 05) April 4-8, 2005, Denver, Colorado, USA (Omni Interlocken Resort) To be held in conjunction with IPDPS 2005 Supported by the IEEE Computer Society http://www.site.uottawa.ca/~boukerch/ipdpswman.html SCOPE: The field of wireless and mobile computing is an important research challenging area, that emerges from the integration among personal computing distributed computing, cellular technology and the Web. This is possible due to the continuously increasing interaction between communication and computing, which is changing the information access from the current reactive ``anytime anywhere'' into the incoming proactive ``all the time everywhere'' approach. Nowadays, there is a large variety of networks spanning from the well-known cellular networks to non-infrastructured wireless networks such as mobile ad hoc networks and sensor networks. This scenario raises a number of interesting, and difficult, algorithmic issues in diverse areas such as location management, resource allocation, ubiquitous information, network connectivity, reliability and security, and energy consumption. This workshop is intended to cover contributions in both the design and analysis of discrete algorithms and the system modelling in the context of mobile, wireless, ad-hoc, and sensor networks. In particular, it aims at bringing together the practitioners and theoreticians of the field. We are seeking for papers that are original, unpublished and not currently under review. The objective of this workshop is to bring together leading technologists and researchers in these ``critical areas'' of research in order to have a forum for discussing fundamental challenges, identifying future perspectives, and exchanging ideas about ongoing research. Authors are solicited to submit original unpublished manuscripts for this workshop. Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings (by IEEE CS Press) of the IPDPS workshops. TOPICS: The scope of this workshop includes, but is not limited, to: * frequency and channel assignment algorithms * cryptography and security * distributed algorithms * pricing modeling and solutions * algorithms for satellite communications * mechanisms design and cooperation enforcement * algorithms and modeling on satellite and radio networks * algorithms for resource management in mobile, wireless and ad-hoc networks * data management on mobile and wireless computing * algorithms for single-hop and multiple-hop packet radio networks * routing, and communication primitives in ad hoc and sensor networks * synchronization and scheduling issues in mobile and ad hoc networks * energy saving protocols for ad hoc and sensor networks * complexity analysis of algorithms for mobile environments * caching and prefetching for information access in wireless networks * algorithms and modeling for tracking and locating mobile users IMPORTANT DATES: Workshop Paper Due: November 20, 2004, 5pm EST Notification of Acceptance/Rejection: December 22, 2004 Camera-Ready Paper Due: January 15, 2004 SUBMISSION GUIDELINES AND PUBLICATION: Authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting original unpublished research and recent developments in the topics related to the WMAN workshop. The length of the papers should be a maximum of 10 double-column single-spaced pages including figures and references on 8.5 by 11 inch paper using at least 10 point font (based upon IEEE Proceedings Style).
