This is complemented by the ever increasing information and computing power offered by computing clusters and information services over stationary networks The integration of network computing and mobile systems presents new challenges especially with respect to the dependability of integrated applications: accepted measures of availability, costs, and quality of service for high-bandwidth, high-quality stationary systems have to be re-thought facing possibly new dependability paradigms for cheap, resource restricted, unreliable mobile systems with low-bandwidth communication facilities, being embedded and subject to the conditions in the physical world. Topics: This workshop solicits papers addressing dependability issues related to the design, analysis, and implementation, of infrastructures, systems, architectures, algorithms and protocols that deal with network computing and mobile/ubiquitous systems. Topics include, but are not limited to: Wireless communication protocols and mobile networks Sensor networks Architectures and middleware for mobile device integration Location-based computing and data analysis Intelligent sensors in networked environments Cluster computing, ubiquitous computing Grid-Computing for mobile applications Distributed data mining for mobile applications Ubiquitous Knowledge Discovery Applications such as cooperative mobile robots, embedded applications, ... Hardware security methods for mobile applications Security methods for network computing and mobile systems Intelligent mobile systems Important Dates: Submission due: July 20, 2010 Decision due: August 10, 2010 Camera-ready due: August 31, 2010 Workshop date: Oct. 31, 2010 Papers submission: Papers submission should be made through EasyChair.

Fwd: [Tccc] CFP: 2nd International Workshop on Middleware for Pervasive Mobile and Embedded Computing (M-MPAC 2010)
by Lars Wolf 22 Jun '10

22 Jun '10

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: 2nd International Workshop on Middleware for Pervasive Mobile and Embedded Computing (M-MPAC 2010) Datum: Mon, 21 Jun 2010 17:40:39 +0100 Von: Sotirios Terzis <Sotirios.Terzis(a)cis.strath.ac.uk> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu Call For Papers --------------- M-MPAC 2010 Second International Workshop on Middleware for Pervasive Mobile and Embedded Computing http://www.smartlab.cis.strath.ac.uk/M-MPAC A Workshop of Middleware 2010 Bangalore, India November 29 - December 3, 2010 Problem Space Building on the success of M-MPAC 2009 (that combined the previous editions of MPAC and MobMid), this event aims to carry on development of a research roadmap on essential middleware abstractions, platforms and applications for pervasive mobile and embedded systems. This year is marked by the resurgence of tablet devices (e.g. iPad and a myriad of competing products) that aim to combine the performance of PCs with the portability and freedom of PDAs. This trend drives an increase in the popularity of pervasive mobile and embedded computing. Recent years have also witnessed the rise (and sometimes resurgence) of relatively powerful mobile communication devices such as mobile phones, mobile Internet devices and netbooks, as well as several embedded devices, like TV set-top boxes, portable media players (e.g. iPods), eReaders (e.g. Kindle), etc. These devices have enabled a wide spectrum of novel pervasive applications, such as healthcare monitoring, enhanced shopping applications/environments, ad-hoc gaming, sport tracking, street navigation and observation, context-aware collaborative computing, etc. Moreover, with the rise of cloud computing infrastructures developers have also started exploring the possibility of empowering resource-constrained mobile devices with such infrastructures offering unlimited storage and computing resources. Developing practical applications for this kind of devices is still in most cases a complex and time-consuming process. Many of the existing applications have been built in an ad-hoc manner and without any possibility for code reuse. As the number and type of mobile and embedded devices, and pervasive applications increases, so does the need to enable interoperability among them. Identifying appropriate middleware abstractions and organizing successfully used protocols, algorithms, and software modules into generic middleware platforms can facilitate application development, foster software reuse, and enable rapid prototyping of pervasive applications. It is unclear and in many respects still an unexplored research area to what extent traditional middleware services can be provided on these devices. Porting existing middleware architectures to these new computing platforms turns out to be often infeasible. Instead, a thorough reconsideration of middleware abstractions and their supporting infrastructure is needed to allow applications to make effective use of the available computational power, memory, communication technologies, integrated sensors, etc. An ideal middleware platform should be capable of handling the resource constraints of these devices but at the same time exploit their unique features such as availability of location information, embedded sensors, mobility, spontaneous interaction, context-awareness, etc. Topics The main topics of the workshop include, but are not limited to: * Device platforms Virtualization technologies and applications Distributed Ensembles Interaction paradigms and protocols Emerging mobile platforms (e.g. Android) Virtual machines * Networking Emerging wireless technologies and platforms Experiences or case studies with new technologies (WiMax, WiBree, LTE, etc) and devices (MIP, UMPC, wearables, etc) Multi-link scenarios: WiFi, Bluetooth, cellular network Quality of service and network selection * Data issues Data formats and encoding Availability and durability of data in personal networks Synchronization of personal devices with other consumer electronics (e.g. cameras, iPods, etc) Data portability * Adaptability Context-awareness, location monitoring Resource management, cyber foraging, and energy-awareness Using cloud infrastructures for computing-intensive tasks and data storage Autonomics and self-* properties * Security and Privacy Privacy preservation and identity management for device-to-device interactions Security architectures balancing risk and utility Trust management in device ensembles Mobile device data security Identity federation * Mobile and Social Web Web architectures (REST, Ajax) for 3-screen usage in pervasive computing Context and content adaptation and management in pervasive computing Mobile web scalability and reliability in access Content adaptation on mobile devices Collaborative search * Applications Healthcare, entertainment, games, mobile TV, smart spaces, shopping, street navigation, etc. Mobile phones in sensor and ad hoc networks Application development on mobile and embedded devices Programming models * Experiences and case studies Lessons from deployments User experiences Performance studies Submission Submissions should not exceed 8 pages and should be formatted using the ACM proceeding style (see http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html). Submission implies that at least one of the authors will register and present the paper. Please submit your paper in PDF at http://www.cis.strath.ac.uk/external/m-mpac2010/openconf/. Papers should present a view of the state of the art in a particular sub-problem area, identify specific middleware challenges, and suggest potential avenues for exploration by proposing models, abstractions and infrastructure components addressing these challenges. Approximately two thirds of the workshop will be devoted to the presentation and discussion of these papers, while the remaining third of the time will be devoted to the development of the research roadmap. Papers will be reviewed by at least 3 members of the programme committee.

Fwd: [Tccc] casemans 2010 Deadline extended
by Lars Wolf 20 Jun '10

20 Jun '10

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] casemans 2010 Deadline extended Datum: Sun, 20 Jun 2010 10:25:09 +0200 Von: Waltenegus Dargie <waltenegus.dargie(a)tu-dresden.de> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu Deadline for paper submission is extended to June 30, 2010 The 4th ACM international workshop on context-awareness for self-managing systems (casemans 2010) http://www.rn.inf.tu-dresden.de/hwn/2010/casemans/index.html in conjunction with The 12th ACM International Conference on Ubiquitous Computing http://www.ubicomp2010.org/ CFP Autonomic execution of services is one of the features of context-aware computing. The service execution may take place inside a simple mobile device, a stand-alone application, a middleware, a network of all size and type; or a physical smart environment. The main idea here is to provide these systems with rich context information to undertake intelligent decision-making. Participation or intervention in the decision-making process by users or administrators of the systems is required only when it is absolutely needed. The intelligent decision making may refer to: (1) providing timely information to the user; (2) protecting the system from a systematic attack or intrusion; (3) updating and configuring relevant software so that it can function optimally; and (4) reconfiguring a system when some internal and external settings (policies) change. Apparently, the above aspects bring together two research areas, namely, autonomic computing and context-aware computing. Whereas these two areas are complementary, so far, vital research issues pertaining to context-aware computing and autonomic computing have been addressed independently. The main aim of this workshop is to build a bridge between these two areas by fostering discussions and collaborations among researchers and practitioners of these two areas. We are particularly interested in investigating context and self-adaptive behaviours. This year, we are planning to make casemans 2010 very attractive by introducing three paper sessions: (1) full papers session; (2) short papers session; and (3) demonstrables. The full papers session focuses on papers with solid research result. The short papers session (4 to 6 pages) will focus on visionary, insightful, critical and even controversial papers that encourage further research. The demonstrables are very short papers (not more than 2 pages) and can be accompanied by demos, attractive posters or videos that show aspects of context-awareness and autonomic service executions. Scope Broadly speaking, the scope of the workshop can be described by the following terms: * Context-awareness and cloud computing * Context-awareness and energy-efficient computing * Context-awareness and smart spaces * Context-awareness and service oriented computing * context-awareness and wireless sensor networks * Context-awareness and social networking * Context-awareness and robotics * Context-awareness and efficient multimedia content distribution * Adaptive and context-based multimodal interaction Information for Authors The workshop proceedings will be published by the ACM ((ISBN: 978-1-4503-0213-5) and will be indexed accordingly. The electronic version of the proceedings will be made available online at the ACM Digital Library. Manuscripts should be prepared according to the ACM Proceedings format. Please visit the ACM template website <http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates>. All paper submissions will be handled electronically by the Easychair <http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=casemans2010>. Note that submission is a two-stage process - authors need to register their paper first and then submit the final manuscript. Submissions must be in Adobe PDF format and conform to the guidelines specified here. Important Dates * Paper submission: 30 June 2010 * Notification of Acceptance: 1 August 2010 * Camera-ready deadline: 15 August 2010 Workshop Organisers: * Francois Siewe, De Monfort University, UK * Noriaki Kuwahara, Kyoto Institute of Technology, Japan * Waltenegus Dargie, Technical University of Dresden, Germany _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

Recently, in the area of wireless networks, it has been shown that simplistic models for mobility, traffic, and signal propagation yield results that are too optimistic. In order to provide more credible models, traces from specific scenarios need to be acquired and then realistic scenario models need to be developed and validated. We solicit papers on mobility, traffic, propagation, and scenario modelling for various wireless networks including MANETs, DTNs and vehicular networks. Papers on trace measurement architectures and trace characterizations of wireless networks are also welcome. The main purpose of this workshop is to promote further research interests and activities on scenario modelling of wireless networks. It is also aimed at increasing the synergy between academic and industrial researchers working in this area. We are interested in experimental, systems-related, theoretical, and work-in-progress papers in all aspects of wireless network scenarios. The topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Classification of scenarios * Challenges in trace acquisition * Tools for mobility, traffic and propagation modelling * Methods in localization and tracking to acquire accurate movement traces * Movement trace measurement architectures * Characterization of movement traces * Mobility modelling * Validation of mobility models * Traffic measurement, traffic characterization, traffic modelling * Combined mobility and traffic modelling * Characterization of signal propagation * Propagation modelling * Impact of mobility on radio characterization * Impact of scenario modelling on performance Authors are invited to submit full papers and work-in-progress papers for presentation at the workshop. Papers (no more than 6 camera-ready pages in IEEE conference proceedings format) should describe original, previously unpublished work, not currently under review by another conference, workshop, or journal. All submissions will be handled via EDAS: http://edas.info/N9078 For detailed submission instructions, together with format files, see the MASS 2010 website: https://mass2010.soe.ucsc.edu/ IMPORTANT DATES: Paper submission deadline: July 2, 2010 Notification of acceptance: Aug. 13, 2010 Camera-ready paper due: Sep. 3, 2010 KEYNOTE: will given by David Kotz, Dartmouth College, USA COMMITTEE: Program Chairs: Nils Aschenbruck, University of Bonn, Germany Tracy Camp, Colorado School of Mines, USA Technical Program Committee: Kevin Almeroth, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA Marco Conti, Istituto di Informatica e Telematica, Pisa, Italy Mesut Günes, FU-Berlin, Germany Marco Gruteser, Ruttgers University, USA Ahmed Helmy, University of Florida, USA Tristan Henderson, University of St Andrews, Scotland David B.
