MobiCom 2009 will be held in September in Beijing. The MobiCom conference series serves as the premier international forum addressing networks, systems, algorithms, and applications that support mobile computers and wireless networks. MobiCom is a highly selective conference focusing on all issues in mobile computing and wireless and mobile networking at the link layer and above. Besides the regular conference program, MobiCom09 will also include a set of workshops and tutorials, panels, research demos and exhibits, and a poster session that includes the ACM Student Research Competition. More information on these activities, including submission deadlines, can be found at http://www.sigmobile.org/mobicom/2009/. PAPERS: Authors are invited to submit full papers presenting new research related to the theory and/or practice of mobile computing and/or wireless and mobile networking. All submissions must describe original research, not published or currently under review for another conference or journal. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * Design, implementation, and evaluation of mobile systems and applications * Operating system and middleware support for mobile computing and networking * Fundamental understanding of mobile computing and wireless networking * Architectures, protocols, and algorithms to cope with mobility, limited bandwidth, limited power and/or intermittent connectivity * Wireless and mobile techniques for delay-tolerant, mobile ad hoc, and wireless sensor networks * Security, privacy, and trustworthiness of mobile and wireless systems * Wireless access technologies (e.g. mesh systems, personal area networks) * Integration and interworking of wired and wireless networks * Protocols exploiting novel technologies such as UWB, MIMO, directional antennas, and software radios * Techniques for dynamic spectrum use * Architectures, algorithms and protocols for cognitive wireless networks and their integration in the Internet * Modeling, simulation, emulation and measurement of mobile systems * Experimental test-beds for mobile/wireless networks * Performance evaluation of mobile and wireless networks, protocols, and systems * Next generation (beyond 802.11) wireless technologies and related systems and protocols MobiCom09 will be a diverse conference and we strongly encourage the submission of mobile systems, experimental and theoretical papers. The program committee will evaluate each paper using metrics that are appropriate for the topic area. For example, a systems or experimental paper in the protocol area will be evaluated based on the innovations in the protocol design, practical implementation, and realistic evaluation, whereas a more theoretical paper may be evaluated mostly based on innovation within the algorithm design. At the same time, the evaluation of wireless and mobile networking technologies is challenging because of the significant impact that the physical environment has on performance. For this reason, all papers must carefully describe and justify the evaluation methodology that is used and identify its strengths and weaknesses. Wireless and mobile networks are being used in a wide variety of application contexts, such as sensor networks, pervasive computing, disruption tolerant networking, and vehicular networks. Papers that describe research and experimentation in such environments are encouraged, but the focus of such papers should be on addressing challenges associated with mobility and wireless networking. The program committee will referee all papers, and accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. CHALLENGES PAPERS: The conference strongly encourages the submission of short papers in the field of mobile computing and wireless networking that present revolutionary new ideas or that challenge existing assumptions prevalent among the research community. These "challenges papers" should provide stimulating ideas or visions that may open up exciting avenues and/or influence the direction of future research. Descriptions of new products or evolution of existing work are not appropriate topics for papers in this category. While an exhaustive evaluation of the proposed ideas is not necessary, insight and in-depth understanding of the issues is expected. Challenges papers will be reviewed by the MobiCom program committee and will be part of the technical program and published in ACM MobiCom proceedings. They should be submitted using the same submission procedure adopted for the full papers. The title of these papers must start with the word "Challenges:" i.e., "Challenges: Rest of the Title." SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Authors should prepare a PDF or PostScript version of their full paper. Papers must be no longer than 12 pages (8 pages for "Challenges" papers), in font size no smaller than 10 points, and must fit properly on US "Letter"-sized paper (8.5x11 inches) with 1-inch margins. Detailed instructions on the paper submission procedure and format will be available on the conference web pages. The deadline for registering the title and the abstract of the paper with our electronic submission system is March 5, 2009 and the deadline for submitting the actual paper is March 12, 2009. All submitted papers will be judged based on their quality through double-blind reviewing, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. Authors' names must not appear in the paper or in the PostScript or PDF file. Submitted papers (or substantially similar papers) must not be currently under review for any other publication. Please direct any questions about the paper submission process to the Program Co-Chairs at mobicom09_pcchairs(a)acm.org. _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

[MM-INTEREST] CFP: Workshop on Multimedia Aspects of Pervasive Healthcare - MMPH'09 at IEEE ICME 09
by Balakrishnan Prabhakaran 27 Jan '09

27 Jan '09

[Please distribute to your colleagues, apologies for multiple copies] Workshop on during IEEE ICME 2009 Multimedia Aspects in Pervasive Healthcare July 3, 2009 Hilton Cancun, Cancun, Mexico in conjunction with 2009 IEEE International Conference on Multimedia & Expo (ICME) Workshop webpage: http://multimedia.utdallas.edu/mmph09/index.html) ----------------- Workshop Scope: --------------- Human health and performance are broad terms that describe the quality of life but are difficult to quantify. Human health can be broadly identified by two components: physical health and mental health. While there is no "official" definition for mental health (considering cultural differences and subjective assessments), physical health is typically attributed to health of various body organs including muscles, bones, and joints. Human performance can be considered as "focused behavior" or "purposeful work" and hence performance is typically domain specific such as sports performance, or performance of a physically challenged person. Recent advances in various technologies for medical sensors, computing, and wireless communication have resulted in monitoring, tracking, and quantifying the physical health. Providing ubiquitous health care and performance monitoring have thus become feasible, affordable, and in many cases indispensable. The proposed workshop will be multi-disciplinary, focusing on innovations in information processing and system aspects of health care and performance. The topics of interest for this workshop include but are not limited to: * Information processing aspects of human health and performance - Data processing, storage and management - Detection, classification, and tracking - Distributed algorithms and reasoning - Programming models and languages * Body sensor networks: Systems and Technology - Novel communication techniques and protocols - In-vivo, on-body, near-body networks - Location, time, and other network services - Network health monitoring and management - Performance modeling * System design issues of Medical Digital Devices - Operating systems and runtime environments - Power - Reliability and fault-tolerance * Assistive Technologies for aged and disabled - Longitudinal studies showing impact on health care and performance * Security and privacy, including HIPAA for medical applications * HCI/Wearable Computing for Medical Applications - Social impacts - Usability - Brain Computer Interactions - Wearable system design issues - Entertainment * Medical Applications - Pervasive health care and patient monitoring within hospitals and other healthcare delivery settings in residential and other non healthcare delivery settings - Prosthetics and other novel medical applications We will have a special issue based on this workshop in a leading journal.

WETICE 2009: Collaboration & Cloud Computing: Call for Workshop Papers
by Rao Mikkilineni 22 Jan '09

22 Jan '09

Workshop Announcement: WETICE2009 is announcing its workshops for participation in Gronigen, Netherlands, (June 29 - July 1st) www.WETICE.org It's first workshop in collaboration and cloud computing will focus on emerging excitement in Cloud Computing www.workshop.kawaobjects.com While current advances in cloud computing are commercially motivated and initiated by various service providers that different from conventional telecom or IP service providers, there is a body of experience from the academia, traditional telecommunications and IP service providers that can accelerate cloud deployment. We would like to solicit participation from not only current cloud computing pioneers but also challenge the academics and traditional computing and communications industry participants to bring their expertise and know-how to suggest innovative and open approach that can benefit cloud evolution. It is our belief that the telecommunication network and the Internet which are globally scalable and interoperable were made possible with collaboration from academics, industry and the creation of global standard bodies such as ITU and ITEF. Just as the telecommunication network connected billions of people to communicate with each other, and the Internet connected millions of computers, PCs and mobile devices to exchange multimedia content, the next generation clouds will enable social networks allowing hundreds of thousands of developers to create millions of services to reach billion of users. For the clouds to be interoperable and globally scalable, new innovation is necessary that brings new distributed computing models that are network centric and incorporates FCAPS management. Many lessons learned in many disciplines need to be brought together to accelerate the cloud evolution with open, vendor independent and technology agnostic collaboration frameworks. This workshop will sow the seed for the collaboration required. Papers reporting original work, work-in-progress, doctoral research proposals, descriptions of systems, and review papers are solicited from the academia, and the computer and telecommunication industries. All papers will be refereed by at least two experts in the area. For more information about Collaboration & Cloud Computing, see: http://www.workshop.kawaobjects.com For more information about the complete conference, see: http://www.wetice.org Important Dates: Deadline for paper submission: February 20, 2009 Decision to Authors: March 13, 2009 Final papers in PDF format to IEEE: April 10, 2009 Conference: June 29 - July 1, 2009 You can submit your papers to workshop(a)kawaobjects.com To unsubscribe from this IEEE Communications Society Meetings and Conferences mailing list send a blank email message to Call_For_WorkshopProposals09-remove(a)comsocconferences.org.

ICNP will be held in its seventeenth year at Princeton, New Jersey from October 13-16th, 2009. Papers with significant research contributions on network protocols are solicited for submission. Papers related to all aspects of network protocols including design, implementation, analysis, performance and specification are relevant. Papers must not be previously published nor under review in any other conference or journal. Only original papers that have not been published previously or submitted for publication and under review by another conference or journal elsewhere can be submitted. Papers containing plagiarized material will be subject to the IEEE Plagiarism policy and will be rejected without review. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: • Protocol design, implementation, testing and analysis. • Measurement studies of protocol performance. • Protocols for wireless ad hoc and sensor networks. • Protocols for peer-to-peer networks. • Protocols for specific functions such as routing, flow/congestion control, network management. • Protocols for security, survivability and fault-tolerance. Papers must be directly relevant to protocols. Papers on general networking where protocols are only a secondary focus will be considered only if they are of exceptionally high quality. Papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. The identity of authors and referees will not be revealed to each other. To ensure blind reviewing, the authors’ names and affiliations should not appear in the paper. Bibliographic references should protect the authors’ anonymity. Papers should adhere to the IEEE format and should not be more than 10 pages. The font size should not be smaller than 10 pt. Further instructions will be posted on the ICNP website (http://www.ieee-icnp.org/2009). Authors of accepted papers will be expected to register for the conference and the paper must be presented at the conference in order for the paper to appear in the conference proceedings.
