-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Yu-Ching Hsu <YuChing(a)ITRI.ORG.TW> Gesendet: Mon Jan 13 02:05:16 MEZ 2014 An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] (extended to Jan. 31) IEEE Wireless Comm. SI on Multihop Cellular The due date is extended to Jan. 31, 2014. IEEE Wireless Communications Feature Topic on "Multi-hop Cellular: From Research to Systems, Standards, and Applications" It has been more than 10 years since the Multi-hop Cellular Networks (MCN) architecture was first proposed in the year 2000. Fundamental researches have demonstrated the benefits of MCN in terms of system capacity, service coverage, and network connectivity. The actual concept behind the MCN architecture could be regarded as “relaying within a cell”, or operating base stations or access points with ad-hoc or mesh networking. This concept also pushed standard bodies to consider their solutions embedded with mesh or ad-hoc architectures, such as IEEE 802.11s, IEEE 802.16j, and IEEE 802.15.5. Now in the recent standards of 3GPP, ProSe (Proximity-based Services) and GCSE_LTE (Group Communication System Enablers for LTE) related working items also cover the device-to-device (D2D) communications with or without infrastructure. After many researches on protocols and architectures for IEEE series specifications have been done for Single-RAT (Radio Access Technology) MCN based on analytical models and simulations, other issues related to implementation, deployment and operations have emerged. From the 3GPP aspect, many research issues are still pending. For Multi-RAT MCN, further researches have to be done in considering the RAT capabilities of devices. This feature topic would serve as a state-of-the-art snapshot in these exciting developments, including but not limited to: - Design and deployment guidelines for MCN - Implementation and test bed issues for MCN - Power saving in MCN - Cross-layer ID allocation and mapping in MCN - Path switch between direct/infrastructure links in MCN - Discovery and self-organization with ad-hoc networking in MCN - Network management in MCN: privacy, security, routing, and mobility - Resource management in MCN: single/multi radio access technology (RAT) and power control - Group communications in MCN - Multi-hop content sharing in MCN - Ad-hoc networking at the edge of MCN for disaster relief or military operations - New application scenarios in MCN: service models, security, charging, billing - Bandwidth aggregation in multi-RAT MCN - System capacity modeling and analysis for Multi-RAT MCN - Cross-layer, cross-RAT collaborative algorithms in Multi-RAT MCN - Network/RAT selection and multi-homing routing in Multi-RAT MCN Submission With regard to both the content and formatting style of the submissions, prospective contributors should follow the IEEE Wireless Communications guidelines for authors that can be found at http://www.comsoc.org/wirelessmag/paper-submission-guidelines.

More than twenty-year history of IWQoS has established it as a highly reputable forum to present novel ideas on all research subjects related to the topic. IWQoS 2014 will continue to be a premier symposium on Quality of Service, providing an international forum for presentation and discussin of cutting edge research in the field. While QoS research for future generations of wired and wireless networks continues to attract much interest, recent exploration of data centers, virtualization, cloud computing, cloud services, industrial communication, and "green" computing has motivated a new wave of research interest in QoS and its related metrics such as Quality of Experience (QoE) and Quality of Protection (QoP). The 2014 edition of the IEEE/ACM IWQoS Symposium will be held on May 26-27 2014 in Hong Kong, China. The scope of IWQoS 2014 covers both theoretical and experimental research on QoS, QoE, QoP and related issues such as survivability, availability, reliability, security, privacy, pricing, resource provisioning and management, user experience, and system performance guarantees. Topics of interest include QoS issues in (but not limited to) the following areas: Quality of cloud services and cloud computing Quality of protection, quality experience, security and privacy System dependability, availability; resilience and robustness to faults and security attacks Scheduling, resource management, queue management, admission control Traffic engineering approaches and tools for provisioning and evaluation Quality evaluation metrics and methodologies; application-aware QoS parsing, identification and control Measurement, evaluation, adaptation and verification Network operations, pricing and billing, network and service management Architectures and protocols for IP, overlay and peer-to-peer networks; optical networks, wireless, ad hoc, mesh, and sensor networks Energy awareness in communication systems Design for the Future Internet Paper Submission Guidelines: IWQoS invites submission of manuscripts with original research results that have not been previously published or that are not currently under review by another conference or journal. Submissions will be judged based on originality, significance, interest, clarity, relevance, and correctness. Reviewing will be double-blind. Submissions must not reveal the authors' names and their affiliations. In other words, submissions must be anonymized and avoid obvious self-references. Submissions not meeting these guidelines will be rejected without consideration of their merits. Paper submissions should be no longer than 10 single-spaced, double-column pages with font-size of 10. Papers must be submitted electronically as PDF files. All submitted papers will be subject to peer reviews by Technical Program Committee members and other experts in the field. IWQoS aims at rapid dissemination of research results. For fast turnaround in the review process, a short review and publication cycle is designed, with the submission deadline as close to the symposium as the publisher allows. The proceedings will be published in IEEE Xplore and EI indexed. However, IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the symposium (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the symposium.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: Computer Communications Special issue on Mobile Social Sensing Datum: Fri, 10 Jan 2014 10:41:01 -0700 Von: Donghoon Shin <misaengma(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Donghoon Shin <misaengma(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Call for Papers:Computer Communications Special issue on Mobile Ubiquitous Sensing: from Social Network Viewpoint Scope: The emergence of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) has opened up a new door to information retrieving and built up a bridge between the physical world and information domain. A major factor that impedes the applicability of sensor networks is the huge deployment cost and management overhead. The past few years have witnessed the dramatic proliferation of portable mobile devices, such as smart phones and tablet computers. Notably, these popular pocket-sized gadgets are embedded with a set of versatile sensors, which could provide abundant data about individuals, human society and environments. This new mobile sensor network formed by mobile devices provides a new horizon for ubiquitous sensing at a low cost. Under the new paradigm of mobile ubiquitous sensing, each mobile device is held by an individual. The underlying social tie among individuals will play an important role in the mobile sensing process. It is, therefore, of great interest to study the mobile ubiquitous sensing from the perspective of social networks. This issue has not received much attention though the traditional way of ubiquitous sensing has, instead, been extensively investigated. Topics of primary interest include, but not limited to: l System/platform designs to enable mobile sensing l Incentives mechanism design to guarantee the coverage, i.e., quality of sensing. l Social structure modeling and analysis l Coverage improvement design via social structure l Individual behavior modeling and analysis l Architectural, modeling and simulation of mobile ubiquitous sensing l New applications on ubiquitous sensing l Energy-efficient and real-time communication protocols design l Privacy and security preserving protocol design for mobile sensing Tentative Schedule Manuscript Due: March 31, 2014 First Notification: July 31, 2014 Revised version: October 1st, 2014 Final notification: Nov. 15, 2014 Publication Date: 1st quarter of 2015 (tentative). Prospective authors can find the submission guidelines at http://ees.elsevier.com/comcom. To ensure that all manuscripts are correctly identified for inclusion into the Special Issue, the authors have to select "Special Issue: Mobile social sensing" when they reach the “Article Type” step in the submission process.

At the same time, automotive manufacturers are striving to make vehicles safer and more environmentally friendly to fulfil consumers' expectations and new regulations. To revolutionise our mobile lifestyle towards a more sustainable and connected future it is of paramount importance to develop innovative cooperative systems enabling road users and other actors to exchange information in real time and in an autonomous manner, pervasive sensing to monitor the status of vehicles and the surroundings, big data analytics for the processing of sheer amount of data coming from the transportation infrastructure, middleware platforms for information management and sharing, and appropriate interaction interfaces between drivers and vehicles. Clearly, the seamless integration between mobile devices, vehicular communication netw! orks, and information and transportation systems will face a number of technical, economical and regulatory challenges. Authors are encouraged to submit full papers presenting recent developments, current research challenges and future directions in the use of networking, communications, data management, and applications to realise vehicular mobility systems that are more connected, sustainable and safe. Topics of interest for SmartVehicles 2014 include, but are not limited to: + Vehicular Network as a Sensor Network; + V2V, V2I and V2X communications + Vehicular mobility support in next-generation wireless technologies + Communications protocol design (MAC, routing, data dissemination) + Data storage, management, and retrieval in vehicular networks + Solutions to connect vehicles with the Internet + Big data analytics for ITS applications + Security and privacy in ITS applications + Multimedia applications, infotainment + Cooperative driving, autonomous and smart vehicles + Traffic management and efficiency applications + Electrification of transportation systems + Simulation environments, experimental testbeds, field operational tests + Mobile (smart) device integration in vehicles and transport systems + Integration of cloud technologies in ITS applications PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION -------------------------------- Submission will be managed electronically through EDAS (http://edas.info/N16795).
