-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: CFP: IEEE ICC 2011 Workshop on Advances in Mobile Networking (AMN 2011) Datum: Wed, 8 Sep 2010 16:43:05 +0200 Von: Kellerer, Wolfgang <kellerer(a)DOCOMOLAB-EURO.COM> 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 ************************************************************************ ******* IEEE ICC 2011 Workshop on Advances in Mobile Networking (AMN 2011) - Towards a Next Generation Mobile Core Network - June 9, 2011, Kyoto, Japan http://www.docomoeurolabs.de/amn2011 http://www.ieee-icc.org/2011/cfp_workshop_list.php CALL FOR PAPERS Important Dates --------------- Manuscript submission deadline: October 15, 2010 Notification of decision: January 15, 2011 Camera-ready deadline: February 15, 2011 Scope and Motivation -------------------- Mobile Networks are at the brink of becoming truly All-IP Networks, providing all services through IP technology. This opens the door for new advancements of mobile systems and all parts of them, along with the efforts taken to advance Internet technology. In fact, there is an urgent necessity to advance the IP based mobile network in the upcoming years. This need stems from the rapid growth of multimedia application traffic that in return requires an unprecedented network capacity increase. However, the revenue will not grow at the same extent as the traffic. Consequently costs per bit are increasing, demanding for higher network efficiency. The efficiency increase is expected for infrastructure provisioning as well as for operational cost. In addition we address innovative user-centric service deployment embracing emerging resources in the network such as storage and processing power that demand for new mobility management and resource management solutions taking service locality, service roaming and user perceived quality into account. This workshop focuses on the mobile core network. We take a deployment of air interfaces such as LTE-Advanced for well underway and focus in concepts and technologies for the advancement of the core network. Contributions are sought for all network layers ranging from high-speed transport to service delivery platform. The emerging variety of multimedia services also pushed by the heterogeneity of end systems ranging from traditional mobile phones to high resolution portable smart devices, demands for new, efficient resource management schemes such as mobile network embedded Content Delivery Networks or content specific mobility management schemes. With available processing and storage space in the network, services do not any longer have to remain statically at a central server, but may move closer to the consumer. Such migration is not limited to one operator domain, but service programs may roam between operator networks. Diversified resource control also demands for a next generation of quality of service provisioning taking the user's Quality of Experience into account. In order to flexibly realize such new network and service solutions a level of indirection between the service delivery platform and the transport network is needed. Sophisticated mechanism are sought to allow for network resource isolations, realizing an abstraction layer for flexible control and management of coexisting, specific networks on one infrastructure substrate. It also allows abstracting from transport networks, supporting the flexible introduction of high speed bit transport through advanced (e.g. optical) network technologies. This addresses a new emerging business environment that reaches from Cloud Computing, Network Virtualization and System Adaptability to the exploding number of 3rd party applications. New players have to be taken into account in an open service market to respond to the economic market pressure that is grounded in fierce competition. New solutions are sought for expanding the next mobile network and emerging service ecosystems into a ubiquitous service space that includes internetworking with physical objects in the user environment, through means of Radio Frequency Identification, Near Field Communication and advanced user interaction mechanism. Topics of Interest ----------------------- Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: - Network aspects for next generation mobile systems such as decentralization, scalability, networked cloud computing, ubiquitous networking environments - Mobile network edge-based service delivery platforms - Mobile Content Delivery Networks - In-network service processing - Advanced roaming concepts (roaming of service programs and content) - Quality of Experience driven network optimization - Reconfigurable, self-organizing mobile network - Network resource management for LTE-Advanced - Mobile network virtualization - Mobile network sharing and network access - Advanced mobility management - Optical network technologies for mobile core network - Energy-efficient networking awareness - Emerging business models and business roles Instructions for Authors ------------------------ Submissions should be in English, adopt IEEE paper templates and must not exceed 5 pages.

The topic "Future Internet" is widely attracting attention. Triggered by FIND/GENI activities of the NSF both the EU in the 7th Framework as well as the BMBF in its IT strategy for 2020 addresses this topic. Still, discussions mainly take place in the research environment and have to get carried into the industry. The workshop topic covers a wide area ranging from the incremental improvement of today's Internet to a complete fresh start (clean slate approach). Aim of this GI/ITG KuVS workshop on Future Internet is to give scientists in this area the opportunity to present and discuss novel ideas and recent work as well as to strengthen cooperation. Emphasis will be placed on innovation and prospect of new approaches over incremental works. The topics of this workshop are focused but not limited to: * New architectures (evolutionary vs. clean slate) * New routing schemes, e.g. content-based * Routing mediation (pub/sub) * Virtual and overlay networks * Separation of identity and address (locator/ID split) * Resource management and QoS/QoE * Next generation transport, e.g. carrier grade Ethernet * Energy efficiency (green ICT) * Network management and control plane * Experimental research and interactions with the real world * Future mobile networks * New application paradigms and APIs Call for Presentations ---------------------- Presentations are 20 minutes plus discussion.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] Special Issue of the Computer journal οn "Mobility in Wireless Sensor Networks" Datum: Wed, 1 Sep 2010 21:50:18 +0300 Von: Damianos Gavalas <dgavalas(a)aegean.gr> Antwort an: dgavalas(a)aegean.gr Organisation: University of the Aegean An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> ============================================================================ APOLOGIES IF YOU RECEIVE MULTIPLE COPIES OF THE CFP ============================================================================ The Computer Journal (SCI-indexed, Impact factor in 2009: 1.394) http://comjnl.oxfordjournals.org/ Special Issue on "Mobility in Wireless Sensor Networks" (http://www2.aegean.gr/dgavalas/ComputerJ_SI.pdf) Introduction: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) offer unprecedented capabilities for integrating sensing with computing and communication as well as for distributed sensing, coordination and control. While WSNs have been a subject of intensive research for about a decade, most research activities to date focus on sensor nodes that are deployed in static, pre-determined locations with sensor readings taken at regular intervals and with packet forwarding that take place in multiple hops to sinks where storage and analysis takes place. The next step for sensor networks is to handle mobility in all possible forms. Thus we need to consider the mobility of sinks, mobility of sensors and of actuators as well as the mobility of the applications and their software. This extension towards represents a recent research subject in sensor networking that opens up a new research opportunities and challenges, and significantly expands the types of applications for which WSNs can be used. This Special Issue therefore aims at identifying the benefits and challenges raised by mobility in WSNs, addressing the state of the art and advances in this particularly promising research area. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): - Sink mobility in Wireless Sensor Networks - Actuator networks - Mobile sensor-actuator networks - Code mobility in Wireless Sensor Networks - Mobile agent-based data aggregation in Wireless Sensor Networks - Mobility issues in underwater Wireless Sensor Networks - Mobility-assisted communication in Wireless Sensor Networks - Topology coverage and connectivity maintenance in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Mobility management in Wireless Sensor Networks - Mobility for maximizing network lifetime in Wireless Sensor Networks - Mobility models for sinks and actuators in Wireless Sensor Networks - MAC protocols and QoS provisioning in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Routing protocols for handling mobility - Distributed algorithms and reasoning in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Data aggregation, fusion and dissemination techniques in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Synchronization and scheduling issues in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Security, trust and privacy in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Mobile GeoSensor Networks - Simulation, evaluation and validation of Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Applications, testbeds and deployment experiences Submission: Submitted papers must be written in grammatically correct English and should describe original research which is not published nor currently under review by other journals or conferences. Paper submissions should be accompanied by a cover letter clearly stating that the paper is meant for the "Special Issue on Mobility in Wireless Sensor Networks", otherwise it will be handled as normal submission.
