[Fwd: [Tccc] CFP: Special Issue IEEE TRANSACTION ON NEURAL NETWORKS]

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] CFP: Special Issue IEEE TRANSACTION ON NEURAL NETWORKS Date: Thu, 24 Apr 2003 19:58:07 -0400 (EDT) From: Chuanyi Ji <jic(a)ece.gatech.edu> To: <tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu> CC: jic(a)ece.gatech.edu Call for Papers IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON NEURAL NETWORKS Special Issue on Adaptive Learning Systems in Communication Networks The recent years have seen an explosive growth in the progress and adoption of communication networks for data and telecommunication applications. In particular, the emergence of the Internet as a new medium for business transactions, government services, information acquisition, computing and communication has created a vast array of problems unforeseen just a few years ago. As the capabilities of the available networking infrastructure improve many foresee convergence of data, voice and video transport over what is currently known as the Internet or its derivatives. Communication networks and internetworks, and in particular the Internet, have been characterized as the ultimate data-rich environments, dynamically evolving and expanding practically without any centralized control. Such data-rich, unstructured environments present a particular challenge for traditional methods of analysis and design. Adaptive learning methods, in general, including adaptive signal processing, neural networks, fuzzy logic and other data-driven methods and algorithms are in the unique position to offer credible alternatives. Such approaches have the potential for solving and improving the available solutions for some of the toughest problems faced in this newly emerging set of interrelated information technologies. The goal of the proposed special issue is two-fold: " to highlight the on-going research in the field of adaptive learning systems, and in particular adaptive signal processing and neural networks, as it is applicable to computer and communication networks, and, " to present to the neural networks community and to others interested in adaptive learning systems, in general, a variety of new and challenging problems and their proposed solutions, originating from the rapidly expanding universe of computer and communication networks. As the use of these technologies spreads, numerous modeling, estimation, control, classification, clustering and signal processing problems are emerging. Many of these problems currently have no satisfactory solutions and some have been addressed with ad-hoc solutions with much room remaining for improvements. A common underlying theme of these problems is that they are " very data-rich, " represent a dynamically changing environment where the lack of valid mathematical models is predominant, and, " representative of systems with minimal or no centralized control. These problems appear amenable to data-driven methods and algorithms, such as adaptive learning methods, including neural networks and other non-parametric or semi-parametric approaches. This special issue will welcome contributions with proposed approaches to existing problems, either with currently known or unknown solutions, and to new problems in the subject areas of computer and communication networks. The focus of the proposed solutions will be on data-driven or the so-called measurement-based methods and algorithms, rooted in the general areas of adaptive learning methods. The Special Issue papers will cover topics of interest that include a broad range of underlying communication network infrastructure technologies. Papers are solicited from, but not limited to, the following topics: Network Management Topics " Methods and algorithms for network traffic analysis, modeling and characterization " Network performance measurement and analysis techniques " Network fault monitoring and diagnosis methods " Network security and privacy, including intrusion detection methods " Approaches and methods for Quality of Service in IP networks " Scalable routing algorithms " Decentralized congestion control algorithms " Novel admission control algorithms " Control algorithms for high-speed network access technologies " Application of "new approaches" in adaptive learning systems to data-intensive tasks in complex networks Content Management Topics " Approaches for scalable Web caching and related optimization methods " Novel solutions to operational problems in content delivery and distribution networks " Web data mining and knowledge discovery - scalability and comparison of methods " Web personalization methods " Information hiding techniques and digital rights management " Novel solutions to information access and retrieval for dynamic Web content " Efficient compression algorithms and coding for continuous digital media - multimedia content " Architectures for Quality of Service guarantees in real-time distributed applications " Uncertainty management in real-time distributed applications " Concepts in real-time distributed applications enabled by new communication network technologies Guest Editors: Alexander G. Parlos, Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas, USA (Coordinator) Chuanyi Ji, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, Georgia, USA K. Claffy, San Diego Supercomputer Center, University of California, San Diego, California, USA Thomas Parisini, University of Trieste, Trieste, Italy Marco Baglietto, University of Genoa, Genoa, Italy Manuscripts will be screened for topical relevance, and those that pass the screening process will undergo the standard review process of the IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks (see the instructions for authors in the IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks). Paper submission deadline is November 1, 2003. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit an abstract by September 1, 2003. This will help in the planning and review process. The final Special Issue will be published in the Fall of 2004. Electronic manuscript submission is mandatory and only papers in pdf format will be considered for review. All manuscripts should be sent to the Coordinator of the guest editorial team at a-parlos(a)tamu.edu. Researchers interested in reviewing manuscripts for the Special Issue should contact the Guest Editors via e-mail and provide a brief description of expertise. -- _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu http://lists.cs.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/tccc

Areas of interest include those that are listed on the conference call for papers, which can be found at http://www.iit.cnr.it/pwc2003 WHY should you submit a short paper? ------------------------------------ This is a great chance for disseminating early results of your research to a wide and competent audience. This will help to create awareness around your ideas, will give you relevant feedbacks and open some discussions in your research direction. WHAT you have to do NOW ----------------------- You must submit a short paper presenting your ideas. A short paper (maximum 2000 words) must clearly describe the subject of your research, the innovative ideas behind it, the results already achieved, and your further work. Proposals submissions will be reviewed for novelty and timeliness, relevance, technical correctness, and accuracy. Submissions should be sent by email to <pwc2003(a)iit.cnr.it> by April 27, 2003. Please use the following subject: "pwc2003 short-paper proposal". WHAT you have to do if the proposal is accepted ----------------------------------------------- Authors of accepted proposal will prepare a camera-ready version of the short paper to be published in the conference proceedings published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/index.html In addition, youmust attend the conference to present your paper at the conference. 15 minutes will be assigned for each short-paper presentation.

There are several research issues still to be explored in the public WLAN arena. What is the overall network architecture and service model? How to roam through multiple wireless access providers with a unique service contract? How to decouple the wireless infrastructure providers from the Internet service (and content) providers? How to locate service facilities in the wireless access domain and how to match the available facilities with the user needs? How to exploit location and context information? How to provide differentiated service levels to different customers? This workshop is aimed at discussing these and several other technical and business challenges behind the evolution of WLANs from cable replacement to public access mean. Leaders and thinkers of the field from academia and industry will assemble to share their ideas and views. Authors are invited to submit original technical papers or position papers, describing current research and visions of the future. We are specifically interested in work focusing on Transport layer and above (layers 4-7). Within the context of interest to this workshop, a list of topics includes, but not limited to - applications and services - public WLAN architectures - community-owned WLAN infrastructures - WLAN-based ad hoc network service creation and management - new service and business models - interworking and cooperation with public cellular systems - mobility, roaming, and handoff management - context-aware services and technologies - location-aware applications and services - multimedia wireless applications - authentication, accounting, billing and payment - security and privacy - middleware support - service location and discovery - traffic measurements and modeling - case studies on deployed platforms and experimental testbeds Please consult the Program Co-Chairs Giuseppe Bianchi and Sung-Ju Lee if you are uncertain whether your paper falls within the scope of the workshop. Paper Submission Guidelines: Papers that are unpublished and are not currently under review by other journals, conferences, or workshops are solicited. We are interested in: - technical papers that describe original research results - position papers that proposes new technologies or shares future vision (similar to challenges papers in MobiCom) All submissions will be handled electronically. The paper must be in either PDF or PostScript format. The page limit of the regular technical papers is 15 pages and the position papers is 10 pages in US Letter sized paper in single column with reasonable margins. Please use font sizes of at least 10 points. All papers will be reviewed by the Technical Program Committee members. Papers will be judged by their technical merit, originality, and relevance to the workshop. All accepted papers will be published in the proceedings. Selected papers will also be included in a special issue of an ACM journal. We expect authors of the accepted papers will attend the workshop and present their work.
