-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CfP: QoSim 2010 Datum: Tue, 27 Oct 2009 13:20:30 +0100 Von: Nils Aschenbruck <aschenbruck(a)cs.uni-bonn.de> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu **************** *only FIVE days left - Nov. 1st* *************** ================================================================= Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this Call for Papers ================================================================= 3rd International Workshop on the Evaluation of Quality of Service through Simulation in the Future Internet (QoSim 2010) http://www.qosim.org to be held in conjunction with SIMUTools 2010 Torremolinos, Malaga, Spain March 15-19, 2010 CALL FOR PAPERS Simulation has long been the primary evaluation tool used by the networking community for supporting the design and tuning of protocols, architectures and applications. During the last years, the wide-scale deployment of wireless access and the emerging of new access technologies, such as 802.16, Beyond 3G cellular packet systems, and Wireless Mesh Networks, as well as the ever-increasing popularity of applications requiring Quality of Service (QoS), such as Voice over IP and video streaming, have made the thorough and sound assessment of QoS a challenging but indispensable task for the evolution towards a future Internet. Furthermore, emerging user-centric and service-oriented network paradigms require new definitions of QoS and service attributes, closer to the user perception, as well as new simulation models to assess them. Last, but not least, new research directions in networking architectures, advocating a long-term disruptive or “clean slate” (re-)design of the Internet, also demand new simulation tools and techniques to prove the feasibility and assess the performance of the proposed solutions. The goal of this workshop is to bring together academic and industry researchers and practitioners from both the networking and the simulation communities to discuss current and future trends in simulation techniques, models and practices for the Future Internet and to foster interdisciplinary collaborative research in this area. The workshop values both theoretical and practical research contributions. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Emerging access technologies (Wi-Max, 3.5G, Wireless Mesh Networks, 802.11x, etc.) * Disruptive network paradigms (bio-inspired, autonomic, opportunistic networking, etc.) * Multi-layer network architectures * Cross-layer simulation * Hybrid Simulation * End-to-end simulation of heterogeneous, mobile and multi-domain networks * Fluid-flow simulation for assessing QoS in large scale networks * New and emerging services and applications * QoS negotiation, service chain negotiation and Service Level Agreements * QoS components (scheduling algorithms, admission control schemes, QoS routing and traffic engineering schemes, etc.) * Scalability analysis * Traffic modeling * Tradeoffs between Security and QoS * QoS applications in extreme situation (e.g. in a network under attack or catastrophes) We solicit submission of manuscripts that present original research results, not previously published nor currently under review by another conference or journal. All submitted papers will go through a rigorous peer review process. Submissions will be judged on originality, significance, interest, clarity, relevance, and correctness by the technical program committee. Submission implies the willingness of at least one author to attend the workshop and present the paper. Accepted papers will be printed in the proceedings and made available online. Authors are invited to submit PDF versions of full papers of up to 8 pages in ACM conference proceedings format, i.e. two-column pages in a font no smaller than 10-points. Submissions will be handled electronically through EasyChair.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] [ACM/SIGMOBILE MobiOpp 2010] Extended submission deadline Datum: Tue, 27 Oct 2009 12:36:31 +0100 (CET) Von: chiara.boldrini(a)iit.cnr.it An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS The Second ACM International Workshop on Mobile Opportunistic Networking MobiOpp 2010 February 22-23, 2010, Pisa, Italy http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/mobiopp2010 sponsored by ACM/SIGMOBILE ******** Paper submission deadline extended to November 11 ********* -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Opportunistic Networking is one of the emerging communication paradigms in wireless mobile communications. Opportunistic networks are commonly defined as a type of challenged networks where communication opportunities are based on sporadic and intermittent contacts, disconnections and re-connections may frequently occur, and the assumption on the existence of an end-to-end path between the source and the destination is released. As compared to the legacy MANETs, where an always-connected infrastructure-less network is assumed, opportunistic networks are much closer to real pervasive networking scenarios, where devices (with sensing capabilities) are carried while users move, and can connect and disconnect continuously relying their communication chances on a store-carry-and-forward approach. The aim of MobiOpp 2010 is to bring together researchers working in this emerging area, thus also providing a reference event for those working on self-organizing wireless mobile networks which usually exploit the opportunistic communication paradigm. In this workshop we aim to explore novel research issues related to all aspects of opportunistic networks. Original contributions are solicited, being related to systems and protocols design, development and analysis, in all areas of Opportunistic Networking. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Novel architectures * Routing protocols * Transport and reliability issues in opportunistic networks * Resource management techniques * Dissemination and replication techniques * Opportunistic networking in P2P systems * Social-aware opportunisitc networking * Middleware services in opportunistic networks * Opportunistic networking applications * Opportunistic networking in wireless sensor networks * Multimodal urban sensing * Security issues in opportunistic networks * Trust and cooperation in opportunistic networks * Mobility models for opportunistic networks * Tools and techniques for designing, analyzing and building opportunistic networks * Opportunistic networks testbeds and measurements * Opportunistic networks performance modeling The workshop proceedings will be published by ACM. Extended versions of workshop selected papers will be considered for possible fast track publication in the Computer Communications Journal (Elsevier) Important dates -------------------- Papers submission deadline: November 11, 2009 (extended deadline) Acceptance Notification: December 22, 2009 Camera Ready deadline: January 22, 2010 Workshop dates: February 22-23, 2010 ORGANIZING COMMITTEE General Chair Sergio Palazzo, University of Catania, Italy Program Co-Chairs Tracy Camp, Colorado School of Mines, USA Marco Conti, IIT-CNR, Italy Steering Committee Marco Conti, IIT-CNR, Italy Jon Crowcroft, University of Cambridge, UK Serge Fdida, Univ.

CFP: IEEE SUTC 2010, Intl. Conf. on Sensor Networks, Ubiquitous and Trustworthy Computing
by Kay Roemer - SUTC 2010 24 Oct '09

24 Oct '09

Call for papers: IEEE SUTC 2010 The Third IEEE Intl. Conf. on Sensor Networks, Ubiquitous, and Trustworthy Computing June 7-9, 2010 Hyatt Regency Newport Beach Newport Beach, California, USA http://sutc2010.eecs.uci.edu The availability of small, low-cost, and low-power sensors, radios, and microcontrollers has triggered a huge wave of research in networked embedded sensing systems. As a result, different research communities have emerged that work on related aspects, but have slightly different foci. A focus of the sensor network community is on energy-efficient systems and networking solutions. While these aspects are also fundamental for ubiquitous computing, a focus of the latter community is on user interaction. The currently emerging cyber-physical systems community emphasizes the integration of actuation and control. Despite these differences, the realization of the above visions involves a common fundamental challenge: The need for trustworthy computing solutions to deliver secure, private, and reliable computing and communication services. The aim of the IEEE International Conference on Sensor Networks, Ubiquitous, and Trustworthy Computing (SUTC 2010) is to bring together the above communities to exchange latest results, to join efforts in solving the common challenges, but also to contrast the developments in the different communities. To support this goal, the conference will feature several (serial) tracks devoted to sensor networks, ubiquitous computing, and cyber-physical systems, as well as tracks devoted to common themes such as pervasive services and data management, embedded networking, and trustworthy computing. In addition, the conference features invited talks and panel discussions. TOPICS OF INTEREST Submissions of high quality papers describing mature results or on-going work are invited. Topics for submission include, but are not limited to the following aspects of sensor networks, ubiquitous computing, cyber-physical systems, and trustworthy computing: - Applications (novel use cases, deployment experience, ...) - Algorithms and Protocols (topology, coverage, routing, timesync, distributed coordination, ...) - Data Management and Processing (gathering, storage, fusion, dissemination, ...) - Deployment, Testing, and Debugging - Design and Programming Methodologies - Distributed Sensing, Actuation, and Control - Energy management - Embedded processors, sensors, and actuators - Management aspects (configuration, adaptation, healing, ...) - Mobility, Location, and Context - Modeling and Performance Evaluation (simulation, complexity analysis, user studies, ...) - Operating Systems, Services, and Middleware - Privacy - QoS aspects - Reliability - Security (authentication, access control, intrusion detection and tolerance, ...) - Social Issues - System and Network Architectures - Trust (establishment, negotiation, management, ...) - User Interface Technologies - Wireless Communication and Networks (ad hoc networks, personal area networks, ...) PAPER SUBMISSION The conference solicits original and previously unpublished research and industrial papers. Submissions should be prepared in IEEE conference proceedings format, up to 8 pages in two-column, no less than 10 pt font and uploaded in pdf at the conference submission site (detailed submission instructions will be made available on the conference homepage). Paper Registration due: November 30, 2009 Paper Submission due: December 6, 2009 Paper Notification: January 31, 2010 Camera ready due: March 21, 2010 ORGANIZATION General Co-Chairs Max Muehlhaeuser, Darmstadt University, Germany Kinji Mori, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan Phillip Sheu, University of California, Irvine, USA Technical Program Co-Chairs Ian Harris, University of California, Irvine, USA Kay Roemer, Univ. of Luebeck, Germany and ETH Zurich, Switzerland Negar Kiyavash, University of Illinois, Urbana Champaign Technical Program Vice Chairs Xue Liu, McGill University, Canada (Cyber-Physical Systems) Andreas Terzis, Johns Hopkins University, USA (Sensor Networks Track) Michael Beigl, TU Braunschweig, Germany (Ubiquitous Computing) Angelos Stavrou, George Mason University, USA (Trust, Privacy, Security) Manfred Hauswirth & Marco Zuniga, NUIG, Galway, Ireland (Pervasive Services and Data Management) Ryan Kastner, UC San Diego (Embedded Wireless Communication)

[Tccc] CFP: IEEE Network SI on "Future Internet: New Applications and Emerging Services"
by Chonggang Wang 21 Oct '09

21 Oct '09

================================================================== IEEE Network Magazine Special Issue on "Future Internet: New Applications and Emerging Services" (http://www.comsoc.org/livepubs/ni/info/cfp/cfpnetwork0710.html) ================================================================== Background The Internet has been successfully deployed for several decades due to its high flexibility in running over different physical mediums and supporting different high layer protocols and applications including traditional file transfer, e-mail, and client-server based web applications. Meanwhile, we have witnessed the unprecedented development and growth of new applications and services in recent years ranging from peer-to-peer (P2P) based applications, image and video applications, location-based services, secured transactions, online hosting services, machine-to-machine (M2M) interactions, and cloud computing. These new applications and emerging services have, in different degree, demanded better than the current best-effort quality of service. The future Internet is expected to be more agile, scalable, secure and reliable, which has been considered and pursued in research projects such as NSF FIND (Future Internet Design) and GENI (Global Environment for Network Innovations) programs in the United States, and EIFFEL (Evolved Internet Future for European Leadership) and FIREworks (Future Internet Research and Experimentation - Strategy Works) projects in Europe. Such ever-emerging applications with different requirements and implications for the future Internet design pose a significantly new set of problems and challenges, which are not well understood, specifically : 1) how can they be efficiently provisioned in the future Internet? 2) how can the future Internet be evolved and/or re-designed possible with radical changes to cater for new applications and services? The goal of this special issue is to feature recent and emerging Internet applications and services, their performance, impact, demands and implications for future Internet design. Scope Papers should contain substantial tutorial content and be accessible to a general audience of researchers and practitioners. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: *Peer-to-peer applications including file transfer, live video streaming and VoD *Utility computing, cloud computing, cloud storage networks *Online hosting services *E-commerce, secured transactions *Mobile services, location-based services *New service provisioning, quality of service issues *Impact on backbone and ISP design.
