-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Call for Papers: Workshop SoCoDiS at NetSys 2013 Datum: Thu, 11 Oct 2012 17:45:26 +0200 Von: Waldhorst, Oliver (TM) <waldhorst(a)KIT.EDU> Antwort an: Mailing List der GI FG 3.3.1 "Kommunikation und Verteilte Systeme" <KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE> An: KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE *************************************************************** Call for Papers --- Submission deadline Nov 5, 2012 Workshop on Self-organized Communication in Disaster Scenarios (SoCoDiS 2013) in conjunction with Networked Systems (NetSys) 2013 Stuttgart, Germany, March 11-15, 2013 *************************************************************** Scope ===== In disaster scenarios, such as natural disasters or terroristic strikes, it is very important for rescue teams to get an overview of the current situation. To get that overview as quick as possible and to coordinate the rescue teams during their mission, it is essential that the teams are able to communicate with each other. However, as the disaster area is unknown and the previous communication infrastructure may be broken, the rescue teams ideally have to bring their own communication equipment to set up an independent infrastructure. Such an infrastructure may be based on small, fast, and autonomously flying Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) that are able to fly over affected areas. These devices carry network equipment that creates an ad-hoc communication network infrastructure among all UAVs, dedicated for the rescue teams. Such a basic communication system can be used to coordinate the teams, to search for people that need help by scanning for isolated cell phones, or to offer new kinds of applications that assist the rescue teams during their work. In the second step, this temporary network can be extended by devices that have more capabilities than UAVs, for example cars or trucks that are able to carrying heavy base stations. Having such a system would be very beneficial for rescue teams that enter large-scale disaster areas. However, as each disaster scenario is different and each deployment poses different challenges, it must be possible to adapt such a communication system to the specific needs of arbitrary disaster scenarios easily. Requirements of such a system include: * adaptation to arbitrary disaster scenarios, e. g. by defining missions in a dedicated language, * having a communication scheme among the nodes that copes with mobility, * offering basic services for common tasks, e. g. scanning for infrastructure remains, and * it has to incorporate self-organized algorithms, to follow missions autonomously. This workshop will cover aspects of such communication architectures dedicated to disaster scenarios as a whole. It brings together researchers working on different layers of communication systems, as working on such an architecture benefits from knowledge regarding a broad set of aspects. Workshop Topics =============== The workshop solicits contributions regarding novel and possibly preliminary research results related, but not limited to the following list of topics: ==== Autonomous operation of UAVs, to assist rescue teams ==== * Hard- and software architectures for UAV systems * Mission planning languages * Autonomous execution of missions * Mobility-aware inter-UAV signaling protocols * Self-organized task allocation among UAVs * Energy management and flight scheduling * Cooperative swarms and formation flights ==== Communication in disaster scenarios ==== * Robust TCP/IP communications in MANETs * Interworking between ad-hoc networks and the Internet, e.g. via satellite links * QoS support in MANETs for rescue teams * Middlewares * Services * Routing * Delay tolerant networks ==== Reconnaissance and repair ==== * Detection of infrastructures, data collection * Data management, data fusion and refinement * Security and privacy aspects in disaster relieve networks * Interaction with remaining network infrastructures, e.g. WiFi, GSM, UMTS, LTE Workshop Organization ===================== Florian Evers, Ilmenau University of Technology, florian.evers(a)tu-ilmenau.de Tobias Simon, Ilmenau University of Technology, tobias.simon(a)tu-ilmenau.de Andreas Mitschele-Thiel, Ilmenau University of Technology, mitsch@tu- ilmenau.de Program Committee ================= Jochen Seitz (TU Ilmenau, Germany) Jochen Schiller (FU Berlin) Oliver Waldhorst (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany) Verena Hafner (HU Berlin, Germany) Volker Zerbe (FH Erfurt, Germany) Christian Bettstetter (Universität Klagenfurt, Austria) Hans Peter Geering (ETH Zürich, Switzerland) Christian Wietfeld (TU Dortmund, Germany) Submissions and important dates =============================== Submission deadline: Nov 5, 2012 Submission site: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=socodis2013 Notification of authors: Dec 3, 2012 Camera-ready copy: Dec 21, 2012 Each submission will be reviewed by three members of the program committee.

by Karin Anna Hummel 09 Oct '12

09 Oct '12

[Please accept our apologies for receiving multiple copies and feel free to forward the CfP to colleagues who might be interested.] ********************************************************************* * Call for Papers * * IWSOS 2013 * 7th International Workshop on Self-organizing Systems * * http://ifisc.uib-csic.es/iwsos2013/ * * Palma de Mallorca, Spain * May 9-10, 2013 * * Paper Submission Deadline: November 18, 2012 * ******************************************************************** ** Scope The main themes of IWSOS 2013 are from the fields of techno-social systems and networks-of-networks with their unique and complex blend of cognitive, social, and technological aspects. We will analyse how these systems self-organize, acquire their structure, and evolve. Thus, we aim to advance our understanding of such key infrastructures in our societies and, more generally, of these sorts of self-organizational processes in nature. We are further interested in learning how to engineer such self-organizing networked systems to have desirable properties including dependability, predictability, and resilience in the face of the inevitable challenges that they face. Building on the success of its predecessors, this multi-disciplinary workshop aims at bringing together leading international researchers from complex systems, distributed systems, and communication networks to create a visionary forum for discussing the future of self-organization in networked systems. We invite the submission of manuscripts that present original research results on the themes of self-organization in techno-social systems and networks-of-networks. ** Key Topics The workshop scope includes, but is not limited to, the following topical areas of self-organizing systems: - Design and analysis of self-organizing and self-managing systems - Inspiring models of self-organization in nature and society - Structure, characteristics, and dynamics of self-organizing networks - Self-organization in techno-social systems - Self-organized social computation - Self-organized communication systems - Citizen Science - Techniques and tools for modeling self-organizing systems - Tools to quantify self-organization - Control and control parameters of self-organizing systems - Phase transitions in self-organizing systems - Robustness and adaptation in self-organizing systems - Self-organization in complex networks such as peer-to-peer, sensor, ad-hoc, vehicular, and social networks - Self-organization in socio-economic systems - User and operator-related aspects of man-made self-organizing systems - Self-organizing multi-service networks and multi-network services - Methods for configuration and management of large, complex networks - Self-protection, self-configuration, diagnosis, and healing - Self-organizing group and pattern formation - Self-organizing mechanisms for task allocation, coordination and resource allocation - Self-organizing information dissemination and content search - Security and safety in self-organizing networked systems - Risks and limits of self-organization - The human in the loop of self-organizing networks - Social, cognitive, and semantic aspects of self-organization - Evolutionary principles of the (future, emerging) Internet - Decentralized power management in the smart grid ** Important Dates Submission deadline: November 18, 2012 Notification of acceptance: January 15, 2013 Camera-ready papers due: February 3, 2013 Conference dates: May 8-10, 2013 ** Papers IWSOS 2013 invites the submission of manuscripts that present original research results which have not been previously published and are not currently under review by another conference or journal.
