-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] Call for Papers: MobiArch 2009 (co-located with ACM MobiSys) Datum: Mon, 02 Feb 2009 15:05:55 +0200 Von: Joerg Ott <jo(a)netlab.tkk.fi> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu Call for Papers The 4th ACM International Workshop on Mobility in the Evolving Internet Architecture (MobiArch 2009) ----------------------------------------------------- Co-located with MobiSys, 22 June 2009, Krakow, Poland http://user.informatik.uni-goettingen.de/~mobiarch/2009/ With the recent development of technologies in wireless access and mobile devices, user, terminal, and network mobility has become an indispensable component of today's Internet vision, and it is likely to continue in the near future, while affecting the whole architectural design of the future Internet. Yet, issues like efficient mobility management and optimization, locator-identifier split, multi-homing, security, wireless access and related operational/deployment concerns are still in their early stages of development. Moreover, the Internet architecture, its end-to-end principles, and business models will require rethinking due to the massive penetration of mobility into the Internet. For instance, an appropriate system that allows communicating with a mobile host requires addressing several fundamental issues with the Internet architecture, such as ability to locate the mobile host/service, preserving ongoing communications upon changes of locations, as well as efficient and secure handover management. As another example, the emerging wireless technologies may pose additional challenges to the Internet architecture since they introduce design principles different from the original Internet. MobiArch 2009 welcomes submissions, from both researchers and practitioners, in exploration of recent advances in architectures, protocols, and experiences with emerging technologies on various mobility issues over the Internet, with an emphasis on wireless infrastructures and mobility patterns for mobility support, new mobility protocols, service discovery, routing and location management, mobile network performance evaluation and modelling, multi-homing, security, architectural impacts and deployment considerations. Furthermore, the potential of usability of mobility services for connecting people and devices in developing regions of the world into the Internet infrastructure will be also explored. Topics of MobiArch 2009 cover all aspects of architectural issues and system support for mobility in the Internet, including but not limited to: * Impacts of new wireless technologies/services, networking technologies, and mobility patterns on the Internet architecture * Architectures and protocols for mobility support in the Internet, ranging from approaches in link, network, transport to session/application layers and cross-layer design * Location management, routing, locator/identifier split, multi-homing and load sharing issues * Security and privacy issues in mobility networks and impacts to Internet architecture * Architectures and mechanisms for wireless/mobile connectivity in extreme environments (e.g., remote areas, developing countries) * Performance issues with mobility in the Internet * QoS and middlebox issues in mobility networks and impacts to Internet architecture * Economic and deployment issues of mobility solutions (infrastructure and devices) * Impact of social aspects on mobility architectures, mobile application and protocol design * Technologies for mobile wireless access and interactions Submissions must present original results. Selected papers will be forward-looking, describe their relationship to existing work, and have impact and implications for ongoing or future research. Submitted papers must be no more than 6 pages long, two columns, with no characters in smaller than 10 point fonts, and must fit properly on US "Letter"-sized paper (8.5x11 inches). Margins must be of 1 inch on all edges (top, bottom, left, and right) of each page. All paper submission will be handled via EDAS (http://edas.info/7188). Papers will be reviewed single blind. Important Dates: Submission Deadline: 22 February 2009 Acceptance Notification: 31 March 2009 Camera Ready Due: 15 April 2009 Workshop Date: 22 June 2009 TPC Chairs: Joerg Ott Helsinki University of Technology (TKK) Kun Tan Microsoft Research Asia For more information, contact workshop co-chairs at mobiarch-chairs(a)informatik.uni-goettingen.de. _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

[Tccc] Elsevier International Journal of Critical Infrastructure Protection Special Issue on Secure Self-Organised Networking for Extreme Emergency Services
by ntan＠teimes.gr 31 Jan '09

31 Jan '09

We apologize for multiple receipts of this CFP. ------------------ International Journal of Critical Infrastructure Protection (Elsevier Publication) Special Issue: Secure Self-Organised Networking Infrastructures for Extreme Emergency Services Debates about emergency services usually diverge into discussions about most prominent catastrophes (e.g. earthquakes, flooding) and terrorist attacks. Such events tend to create a crisis and panic on the society. In such events, self-organized networking infrastructure (i.e. ad-hoc, wireless mesh) can be deployed in a secure and reliable manner in case of infrastructure network collapse so that an appropriate crisis handling management can be applied. This strategy coordinates all the available resources in terms of public services (i.e. police, authorities, hospital, fire-brigade etc) so that this crisis is resolved smoothly. While these extreme events surely represent some of the most demanding scenarios for emergency services, in order to fulfill the requirements of modern societies, research and development in the area of emergency services need to address a much broader scope. The handling of extreme emergency applications will often involve the establishment of self-organised networking environment in order to provide applications and services among the rescue workers. ------------------ Topics ------------------ The aim of this special issue is to seek original and unpublished research papers in the following areas: - Self-Organised Network architectures (e.g. ad-hoc, mesh, PAN etc) for extreme emergency applications and services - Modeling and Simulation of Self-Organised Critical Infrastructures - Security protocols, solutions and tools for extreme emergency network architectures - Attacks and countermeasures for self-organised networks - Complex application scenarios - Service Continuity and Resiliency - Secure Multimedia Communications in Extreme Emergencies - P2P Overlay and Coordination Support - Standards and Initiatives for Emergency Networks and Applications (e.g. IEEE, IETF, etc) ------------------ Submission Instruction ------------------ Authors should follow the Elsevier International Journal of Critical Infrastructure Protection manuscript format instructions as described at the journal’s site http://ees.elsevier.com/ijcip/. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript in pdf format through the Elsevier portal http://ees.elsevier.com/ijcip/ by uploading their paper at the special issue track. ------------------ Schedule ------------------ Paper Submission Deadline: 30th of August 2009 Notification: 30th of January 2010 Publication Date: June 2010 ------------------ Guest Editors ------------------ Ass.

[Mycolleagues] S-CUBE 2009 Call For Papers
by Matteo Cesana 29 Jan '09

29 Jan '09

Our apologies in case of multiple receptions. ****************************************************************** ****************************************************************** Call for papers S-CUBE 2009 The first international conference on Sensor Systems and Software September 7-9, 2009 - Pisa, Italy http://www.s-cubeconference.org/index.shtml ***************************************************************** ***************************************************************** S-CUBE - the First Conference on wireless Sensor network (WSN) Systems and Software - provides an ideal venue to address the research challenges facing system development and software support for wireless sensor networks based systems that have the potential to impact society in many ways. Currently, wireless sensor networks introduce innovative and interesting application scenarios that may support a large amount of different applications including environmental monitoring, disaster prevention, building automation, object tracking, nuclear reactor control, fire detection, agriculture, healthcare, and traffic monitoring. The widespread acceptance of these new services can be improved by the definition of frameworks and architectures that have the potential to radically simplify software development for wireless sensor network based applications. The aim of these new architectures is to support flexible, scalable programming of applications based on adaptive middleware. As a consequence, WSNs require novel programming paradigms and technologies. Moreover the design of new complex systems, characterized by the interaction of different and heterogeneous resources, will allow the development of innovative applications that meet high performance goals. Hence, WSNs require contributions from many fields such as embedded systems, distributed systems, data management, system security and applications. The conference places emphasis on layers well above the traditional MAC and routing, and transport layer protocols. The aim of the conference is to create a forum in which researchers from academia and industry, practitioners, business leaders, intellectual property experts and venture capitalists may work together in order to compare and debate different innovative solutions.
