-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] Deadline Extension: Workshop on "Capacity Sharing" Datum: Fri, 15 Jul 2011 11:42:41 +0000 Von: Dirk Kutscher <Dirk.Kutscher(a)neclab.eu> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> - Apologies if you receive multiple copies - =========================================================================== Submission Deadline extended to August 1, 2011 =========================================================================== Call for Contributions ---------------------- NEC Laboratories Europe and the Institute of Communication Networks and Computer Engineering (IKR) of the University of Stuttgart invite you to a one-day workshop on the topic ---------------- Capacity Sharing ---------------- With the increasing amount of IP traffic in fixed and mobile access networks, the question how to share the available resources in a fair, efficient and demand-oriented way becomes more and more prevalent. With the variety of services one can find in today's Internet, the requirements in rate, data volume and latency differ strongly. To maximize resource utilization and, at the same time, provide satisfying performance to all users, application layer knowledge is needed. As different resource allocation and adaptation mechanisms already exist in MAC, transport and application layer, an integral consideration of the problem space is required. In wireless networks, the problem is particularly relevant due to the inherently limited resources, which render a simple "throwing bandwidth at the problem" solution impossible. Because large over-provisioning factors are economically unfeasible, similar questions on capacity sharing also arise in fixed access networks, such as high bandwidth passive optical networks or cable networks. The objective of this workshop is to bring together stakeholders of mobile and fixed access networks, the classic Internet world and of the application and transport community. We solicit presentations on the state-of-the-art, results of ongoing research, open issues, trends and new ideas. We are especially looking forward to (possibly provocative) visionary presentations to foster a lively discussion about how to face the upcoming challenges in the future mobile Internet. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to * Application-layer adaption for mobile services * Transport layer solutions and possible interactions with cellular/fixed access networks * Context-aware resource allocation & cross-layer adaptation * QoE and fairness definitions, metrics and evaluation * Data traffic characteristics in fixed and mobile Internet * Economic aspects on capacity sharing and business models * Similarities and differences of capacity sharing in mobile and fixed access networks * Related standardization activities and projects Submission Information ---------------------- Please inform the workshop organizers by email to about title and abstract (max. 1 page) of your planned presentation. The number of slots is limited. Important Dates --------------- Deadline for contributions: August 1, 2011. Registration to the workshop: September 15, 2011. Workshop date: October 13, 2011.

Being one of the lead- ing international conferences in this area, the European Confer- ence on Wireless Sensor Networks (EWSN) has played a substantial role in the dissemination of innovative ideas from researchers all over the globe. For EWSN 2012, the ninth meeting in this se- ries, we invite papers describing original, previously unpub- lished research results pertaining to wireless sensor networks, broadly conceived. TOPICS OF INTEREST Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Hardware Design and Implementation * Operating Systems * Programming Abstractions and Tools * Communication and Network Protocols * Information and Signal Processing * Security and Fault-Tolerance * Prototypes, Field Experiments, Testbeds * Fundamental Theoretical Limits and Algorithms * Novel Applications * Cooperating Objects and their Applications PAPER SUBMISSION This highly selective conference will only accept for review original papers that have not been previously published and are not currently under review by any other conference or journal. We will adopt a double-blind review process, where the names of authors and their affiliations are unknown to reviewers until the end of the review process and are not mentioned in the paper. Papers must be submitted electronically through EDAS at http://edas.info. Submissions must be in Adobe PDF format and are not to exceed 16 pages, including text, figures and references. We require that submissions conform to the LNCS style (www.springer.com/lncs), as the proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in the Lec- ture Notes in Computer Science series. IMPORTANT DATES Paper registration and abstract submission: September 16, 2011 Full paper due: September 23, 2011 Author notification: November 21, 2011 All deadlines are hard -- no extensions will be granted.

As a result, there will be a strong demand for wireless > communications and networking to provide information as well as onboard > entertainment services to passengers and driver. Vehicular communication is > expected to implement a variety of wired and wireless technologies for > Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Roadside (V2R) communications. In > Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) for V2V systems, communication may > experience serious deterioration due to the lack of accurate channel state > information and advanced radio-resource-allocation schemes to assign > wireless resources to high-speed vehicles. Moreover, communication among > high-speed vehicles through cellular communication networks causes frequent > handovers and drop-offs resulting in degradation in overall system > performance. This motivates researchers to design innovative resource > allocation techniques and robust, as well as, fast handover schemes for > dynamically changing topologies of VANETs. In VANETs for V2V communications, > trust, security, privacy, and reliable routing are major concerns since the > network topology changes constantly. Furthermore, physical layer design > issues for wireless communications in high-speed mobile environments are > also of vital importance to realize its full potential for ITS. All in all, > vehicular communications with dynamically changing topologies is a demanding > research topic.
