Recently it has been further enhanced by the concept of Internet of Vehicles (IoV). Connected Vehicles enables any vehicle, anywhere, to act as a smart node, collecting and sharing information on vehicles, roads and the surroundings. This information can then be distributed to other vehicles, vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication, and road users, vehicle-to-human (V2H) communication, for an improved road experience. Information can also be forwarded towards traffic control systems, vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication, for improved traffic management and road safety. Implementation of connected vehicles in intelligent transportation systems will revolutionize the way we drive. There are however many issues that need to be resolved to achieve maximum potential including privacy and security issues, data processing and storage, development of standards and regulations across all platforms, establishing new communication protocols and system architectures and the creation of new services and applications. This Special Issue on “Connected vehicles in Intelligent Transportation Systems” is focused on intelligent transportation systems using vehicle communications and their applications, protocols, standards, and advanced technologies. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: • Connected vehicles and Internet of Vehicles (IoV) • Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) communication • Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) communication • Design and development of communications protocols and infrastructure and standards for connected vehicles • Control, Modeling, Simulation and experiments for connected vehicles • Testing, evaluation and verification • Vehicle location prediction • Event detection based on V2V and V2I connectivity • Peer-to-Peer data sharing • Context-Aware Internet of Things Services for intelligent transportation • Context Aware Computing and Internet of Things Services in intelligent transportation • Authentication and secure V2V communication in IoV Papers which are unrelated or peripherally related to transportation will not be accepted. *Important Dates:* Tentative schedule for the Special Issue is as follows: • First submission deadline: June 1st, 2017 • Notification of first decision: September 15th, 2017. • First revision submission deadline: October 15th, 2017. • Notification of final decision: December 1st, 2017. . • Final manuscript (camera ready) submission deadline: February 1st, 2018. • Issue of Publication: July 2018. *Manuscript Submission* Manuscripts must be submitted electronically at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/t-its by selecting "Special Issue on Connected vehicles in Intelligent Transportation Systems". *Guest Editors* Reza Malekian, (reza.malekian(a)ieee.org) [Lead Guest Editor] University of Pretoria, South Africa Kui Wu, University of Victoria, Canada Kris Steenhaut, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium.

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Chunyu Ai <aic(a)USCUPSTATE.EDU> Gesendet: 9. März 2017 04:34:24 MEZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: The 1st IEEE Symposium on Privacy-Aware Computing IEEE PAC 2017 August 1-3, 2017 Washington DC, USA With the continuous proliferation of diverse Internet-based computing paradigms, large amounts of data containing privacy-sensitive information are being constantly published, collected, processed, and archived. This trend will be further fueled up by the new development of IoT (Internet of Things) technologies, smart cities, e-health, e-commerce, social and behavioral studies, social networking, edge computing, and cloud computing. As a result, fast-growing concerns about data privacy from academia as well as industry emerge in recent years, which motivate researchers and practitioners to think about questions such as how to guarantee that the collected or published data are not misused; how to ensure that data processing does not disclose any sensitive information; how to store the data securely for privacy protection; how to define new privacy policies that allow desirable services; and how to make sure that privacy policies issued by government and industry are not violated. The IEEE Symposium on Privacy-Aware Computing (IEEE PAC) brings together experts from academia, government, and industry to present and discuss recent advances and new perspectives on related research and development in privacy-aware computing. We invite original theoretical contributions as well as system implementation/experimentation works on all topics related to "making computing privacy-aware" for privacy protection. Particularly, IEEE PAC solicits unpublished results in privacy threats and vulnerabilities of emerging applications for various computing platforms (mobile, IoT, cloud, social network, etc.), privacy-aware algorithms for big data analytics and networking, novel methodologies for privacy-protection (modern cryptography, game theory, etc.), policies for privacy-aware computing, etc. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to, the following subject categories: Privacy-aware mobile computing Privacy-aware information retrieval Privacy-aware computation outsourcing Privacy-preserving data collection Privacy-aware data mining and machine learning Privacy-aware financial technology Privacy-aware bio-computing Privacy-aware social computing Differential privacy and data perturbation techniques Privacy-aware database systems Privacy issues in wearable computing and e-healthcare Privacy issues in Internet of Things Privacy issues in web services Privacy issues in network systems Privacy issues in wireless systems Privacy issues in mobile sensing Privacy issues in social and behavioral studies Location/Localization privacy Anonymous Communications Privacy issues in software defined networks Privacy technologies for digital currency and mobile payment Hardware-related privacy technologies Privacy threats and countermeasures Policy issues for privacy-aware computing We solicit regular papers that present novel and unpublished research results. Position papers that define new problems or provide visions and clarifications in privacy-aware computing are particularly welcome. Besides, we will include an industry/government track, which will contain talks, demos, and exhibitions from non-academia organizations, to demonstrate the recent advances in privacy products and prototypes, and present and discuss critical challenges, government policies, upcoming research directions, etc. The goal of this industry/government track is to further foster collaborations between academia, industry, and government, so as to more effectively push the frontier of privacy-aware computing.

The components of such systems will be high-end devices, such as autonomous machines, UAVs and robots, self-driving cars, virtual reality-based systems. Such systems pose new challenges to wireless networks, which have been traditionally designed for mobile broadband applications. Most current scenarios for device-to-device communications are based on the design and exploitation of simple sensor-actuator systems, and their architecture remains dependent on computation and battery limitations. Such constraints are not applicable for resource-rich advanced systems that must always perform at the highest levels of reliability, and may be tasked with demanding communication requirements for specialized missions and tasks, such as road-safety, disaster preventio n and management or focussed monitoring of sensitive sites and infrastructures. In fact, the interactions needed within such complex and comparatively large-scale systems will demand extremely low latency, significantly higher reliability, uniform and ubiquitous network availability, more power efficient designs, and sharp transient spikes in information exchange resulting from distributed cooperation. Furthermore, as humans may have an active or passive role within these systems, merging of human interaction and response times along with safety and exposure to cyberattacks must be jointly considered, e.g. in the automotive industry, where the threat of attack vectors in wireless communication using V2V/V2I/V2X paradigms, significantly increased life risks. This special issue will highlight emerging applications as well as enabling wireless communication and networking technologies and architectures to support future autonomous systems. Emphasis will be given to breakthrough research in device/network co-design solutions that efficiently integrate sensing, computing and communication and exploit context awareness at various levels to dramatically improve wireless network performance across multiple dimensions: ultra-low latency, high reliability, uniform availability, improved bandwidth and power efficiency. The special issue will also cover test-beds and demonstration of system design and development for such networks.
