-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE Network SI on Security and Privacy of Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing Datum: Fri, 17 Feb 2017 06:38:57 -0500 Von: Hongwei Li <hongwei.uestc(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Hongwei Li <hongwei.uestc(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG As a special cloud computing platform, Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing (CVCC), which seamlessly combines cloud computing and VANETs, has been recently proposed to accelerate the adoption of VANETs, and extended the traditional cloud infrastructure consisting of a majority of stationary nodes to the edge of vehicles. CVCC is a mobile computing paradigm, which consists of in-motion vehicles cooperating with each other to achieve a bunch of practical applications, such as collaborative package delivery and information dissemination. Essentially, CVCC coordinates the computing, communication, sensing, and storage resources of the vehicles on the road to balance the service requirements and the hardware limitation. Nevertheless, different from the traditional cloud infrastructure, CVCC requires sophisticated security and privacy protection mechanisms as the legitimate users and attackers have the same privileges in CVCC. Thus, the attackers can utilize system loopholes to reach their goals, such as obtaining confidential information and tampering with the integrity of information and the availability of resources. Therefore, in order to enhance the security and scalability of CVCC, a set of security and privacy requirements such as authentication, nonrepudiation, anonymity, and traceability should be met in accordance with the expected characteristics of Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing, and a number of crucial issues must be addressed such as trust model, data security, connection fault, and query tracking attacks. This special issue covers the most recent research results that address security and privacy issues of CVCC. We solicit papers covering various topics of interest that include, but not limited to the following: -Encrypted search in Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing -Secure outsourcing computing in Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing -Secure data storage in Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing -Access control and anonymization in Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing -Authentication and authorization in Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing -Data provenance in Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing -Integrity verification in Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing -Real-time security monitoring in Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing -Useable security in Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing -Implementation and testbed for secure Connected Vehicular Cloud Computing Important Dates Submissions Deadline: October 1, 2017 First Reviews Due: December 15, 2017 Revision Due: February 15, 2018 Final Manuscript Due: March 15, 2018 Publication Date: May 2018 Submissions: Submitted papers should not be under consideration elsewhere for publication and the authors must follow the IEEE Network guidelines regarding manuscript content and format for preparation of the manuscripts.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] IEEE ACCESS Special Issue on Mission Critical Public-Safety Communications: Architectures, Enabling Technologies, and Future Applications (Impact Factor = 1.270) Datum: Fri, 17 Feb 2017 00:57:48 -0500 Von: Zeeshan Kaleem <zeeshankaleem(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Zeeshan Kaleem <zeeshankaleem(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS - IEEE ACCESS Special Issue on Mission Critical Public-Safety Communications: Architectures, Enabling Technologies, and Future Applications http://ieeeaccess.ieee.org/special-sections/mission-critical-public-safety-… Submission Deadline: 30 June 2017 INTRODUCTION Disaster management organizations such as fire brigades, rescue teams, and emergency medical service providers need to communicate with each other and with the victims by using mission-critical voice and data communication. In recent years, public safety agencies and organizations have started planning to evolve their existing land mobile radio system (LMRS) with long-term evolution (LTE)-based public safety solutions which provides broadband, ubiquitous, and mission-critical voice and data services. Third generation partnership project (3GPP) objective is to preserve the considerable strengths of LTE while also adding features needed for public safety. Moreover, 3GPP Release 13 has recently included the Mission-critical push-to-talk (MCPTT) functionality into LTE standard. Moreover, 3GPP has identified the device-to-device (D2D) communications as the key driver in emergency situations. The main motivation factor of considering D2D communications for public protection and disaster relief (PPDR) and mission-critical situations is its capability of providing the emergency services by using network-assisted scenario or by acting as a relay to transmit information from one end to another end similar to the ad-hoc network. Core communication technologies and features which will support this network configuration include direct communication mode, MCPTT, full duplex voice system, group calls, talker identification, emergency alerting, and audio quality. The software defined radio (SDR) has the potential to support seamless interoperability by implementing multi-band radios and multi-service radios. Moreover, reinforcement learning schemes can dynamically adjust the network elements by considering quality of service (QoS) requirements of the public safety user s. Thus, this will lay down an interdisciplinary research agenda that combines broadband wireless networks, unmanned air vehicles (UAV) communications, SDR, reinforcement learning, cognitive and self-organizing communications, D2D discovery and communications, stochastic geometry, and energy and time efficient spectrum management schemes, into an integrated and synergistic framework. The main objective of this Special Section in IEEE Access is to bring most recent advances in public safety architecture and communication technologies to the readership of the journal. This Special Section will provide the opportunity for research communities across the globe to share their ideas on these newly emerging fields of public safety communications. Topics of interest include, but not limited to the following: Public Safety Network Architecture Architectures for public safety networks Adaptive frames structure design for public safety networks UAV-based network architecture for public safety networks Moving cells deployment and backhaul design challenges for public safety networks Reinforcement-learning-based communication architecture for public safety networks Enabling Technologies and Future Applications for Public Safety Networks Cognitive radio technology for public safety networks Radio resource management for public safety networks Power control schemes for public safety networks Spectrum sharing and future spectrum requirements for public safety networks Routing and MAC protocols for public safety networks Cross layer protocols for public safety networks Physical layer issues for public safety networks Location detection technologies and protocols for public safety networks Stochastic geometry models for public safety networks 3D location detection protocols suitable for public safety networks Disaster resilient location detection protocols for public safety networks Robust location accuracy technology development to provide indoor localization using GPS Channel measurements and modeling for public safety networks Quality of service (QoS) and priority aware models for public safety networks Public safety networks optimization by targeting low latency applications Opportunistic offloading schemes for public safety networks UAV applications for public safety networks Reinforcement-learning applications in public safety networks Device-to-device (D2D) Discovery & Communications for public safety communication Multi-hop and relay-based communications for public safety communication Robust models for multi-hop synchronization for public safety networks Internet of things (IoT) applications in public safety communications Intra-Band Full Duplex communications for public safety communication Wireless power transfer for public safety communication Interdisciplinary research for public safety networks Software defined radio (SDR) testbeds and experiments for public safety networks We also highly recommend the submission of multimedia with each article as it significantly increases the visibility, downloads, and citations of articles.

As these trends continue, a reexamination is urgently required for the architecture of the mobile-centric Internet. Particularly, there is a need to deal with new opportunities and challenges as a result of the support of massive amount of shared content and processing functionality, the availability of software defined architectures and of possibly dynamic/mobile virtualized network functions, the computational/storage support from both the cloud and edge/fog computing, and the emerging spectrum access techniques. In particular, the explosion of user-generated data and the emergence of cloud-based mobile services are leading to the collection of vast amount of user mobility data as well as network measurement data. In this context, various networking challenges rise such as seamless IP mobility management, need for novel algorithms correlating user mobility and application usages, the online or offline exploitation of large amount of mobility and usage data from access networks and user devices, the possibility of offloading computing/storage tasks from mobile hosts to both the cloud and edge nodes, innovative algorithms correlating traffic offloading to content offloading and application offloading as a consequence of mobile data analysis, pattern inference and estimation, multi-connectivity technology exploitation for quality of service, extreme reliability in challenged scenarios with network function virtualization, etc. To tackle these hard technical and organizational challenges, various issues need to be addressed, such as efficient mobility management and optimization, multi-homing, efficient transport over heterogeneous wireless access options, users’ incentives to reduce network congestion, incentives for network providers to deploy new/alternative mobile Internet infrastructures, incentives for service developers/providers to define new mobile services, efficient and quality-aware mobile multimedia content distribution, information-centric and mobility-aware networking solutions, collection and management of mobile M2M data in a 3-layer infrastructure with edge/fog computing and the cloud, new business models for mobile data, security and privacy, as well as related operational concerns and legal issues.

This topic broadly encompasses research on how softwaredefined technologies are revolutionizing networking, particularly for emerging applications like Smart Cities and the Internet of Things. Network Function Virtualization and Software Defined Networking are transforming the network data and control planes, promising greater flexibility and lower cost. As industry and academia explore new application paradigms running on smart devices, there is an ever growing need for new network architectures, protocols, and management technologies. The intimate single-track session format of the symposium encourages stimulating exchanges between researchers. The symposium is expected to be a forum for discussion of new and interdisciplinary ideas on architectures, algorithms, service models, pricing, and performance. Speculative and potentially transformative ideas are particularly encouraged, as are studies reporting measurements from real-life networks and testbeds. Papers are solicited on topics including, but not limited to: - Novel data center network architectures, technologies, and protocols - Mobile Edge Computing and architecture innovation - Software defined networking and network function virtualization - Integration of cloud server, storage, and network resources - Name-to-name communications and name-based abstractions - Energy-efficiency, reliability, resource allocation, and pricing in data centers - Wireless access technologies (WiFi, LTE, etc) and their integration in 5G networks - Performance measurement and modeling - Internet-of-Things and Machine-to-machine communications - Smart cities, connected transportation systems, and intelligent buildings - Local-area and metropolitan-area network security - LAN-based and MAN-based applications (gaming, distributed computing, media distribution to and in the home, enterprise applications, ambient technology, wearable-computing) Ilario Filippini Assistant Professor Politecnico di Milano, DEIB Via Ponzio 34/5, 20133, Milan, IT ph: +39 02 2399 3657 web: http://home.deib.polimi.it/filippini/ ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
