-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] Call for papers: Wireless Mesh Networking Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2005 15:00:23 -0500 (EST) From: Xudong Wang <wxudong(a)ece.gatech.edu> To: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu CC: wxudong(a)ieee.org, bahl(a)microsoft.com, schoi(a)snu.ac.kr, Jean-Pierre.Hubaux(a)epfl.ch [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP] ============================================================== Call for Papers IEEE Wireless Communications Magazine, Special Issue on Wireless Mesh Networking: Theories, Protocols, and Systems http://www.comsoc.org/pubs/pcm/mesh_cfp.htm ============================================================== Wireless mesh networking has become an indispensable technique for the next generation wireless networks. It is critical to large-scale wireless networks with no pre-existing infrastructure. It enables quick-and-easy extension of a local area network into a wide area. Prior efforts on wireless networks, especially multi-hop ad hoc networks, have led to significant research contributions that range from fundamental results on theoretical capacity bounds to various flavors of routing and transport protocols. However, the work is far from enough. The state-of-art is insufficient for deploying sizable wireless mesh networks. Important aspects such as network radio range, network capacity, scalability, manageability, and security remain open problems. To address capacity and scaling concerns, researchers are experimenting with systems that use multiple radios, frequency-agile radios, directional and multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antennas. Further, there are renewed interests in carrying out research on MAC protocols and cross-layer design that breaks the traditional networking layering norm. It is clear that such novel techniques are needed to increase system capacity, extend network range, and increase scale, if such networks are to become viable. Similarly, while there exist several security protocols for wireless networks, especially for IEEE 802.11 WLANs, it is still not clear how one can build a trustworthy network in a multi-hop ad hoc environment like wireless mesh networks. Finally, although new research results are published each year, progress on practical protocol implementation and system integration has lagged considerably. To ensure wireless mesh networks to be widely deployed, many research groups are starting to accumulate practical experience through building testbeds and deploying trial systems. In parallel to these efforts, several IEEE standard groups are also actively pursuing wireless mesh networking techniques. This special issue is devoted to the research and development of practical, deployable, and low-cost wireless mesh networks. Papers from both industry and academia will be solicited through an open call-for-papers. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to, -- Techniques for capacity and range extension -- Multi-radio, multi-spectral systems -- Cognitive and frequency-agile radios -- Multichannel MACs, MAC protocol for directional antennas and MIMO systems -- High-performance scalable single-channel MACs -- Programmable MACs -- Cross-layer design and optimization -- Trustworthy networks, privacy and security models -- Incentives, cooperation, and reputation systems -- Mobility, power, and topology management -- Network management with zero-configuration -- Practical system architecture of wireless mesh networks -- Testbed and deployment experience -- Application and usage scenarios -- Emerging standards: IEEE 802.11s, IEEE 802.15.5, IEEE 802.16 mesh, IEEE 802.20 mesh ============================================================== SUBMISSION Manuscript Due: April 1, 2005 Acceptance Notification: August 15, 2005 Final Manuscript Due: October 15, 2005 Publication: December, 2005 Prospective authors should follow the following guidelines to prepare their manuscripts: http://www.comsoc.org/pubs/pcm/pub_guidelines.html Please send PDF (preferred), Microsoft Word, or PostScript formatted papers to Xudong Wang (wxudong(a)ieee.org) no later than April 1, 2005. ============================================================== GUEST EDITORS Xudong Wang Senior Staff Research Engineer Kiyon, Inc.

[Fwd: First Call for Paper Workshop Sicherheit in komplexen, vernetzten Umgebungen]
by Lars Wolf 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: First Call for Paper Workshop Sicherheit in komplexen, vernetzten Umgebungen Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2005 18:16:49 +0100 From: Michael Meier <mm(a)INFORMATIK.TU-COTTBUS.DE> Reply-To: Mailing List der GI FG 3.3.1 "Kommunikation und Verteilte Systeme" <KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE> To: KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V. Fachgruppe SIDAR Call for Papers Workshop Sicherheit in komplexen, vernetzten Umgebungen Im Zeitraum 19.-22. September 2005 Bonn, Deutschland Workshop im Rahmen der 35. Jahrestagung "Informatik LIVE!" der Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V. www.gi-fg-sidar.de/skvu2005 Einen unaufhaltsamen Trend der heutigen Informationsgesellschaft stellt die zunehmende Vernetzung von Computersystemen in den unterschiedlichen Bereichen dar. Den vielfältigen sich daraus ergebenden Vorteilen steht eine zunehmende Menge von Bedrohungen entgegen, die auf vielen Ebenen einen Einfluss auf das Leben und die Gesellschaft haben können. Getreu dem Motto "Informatik LIVE!" der diesjährigen Jahrestagung der Gesell- schaft für Informatik möchte sich der hier beschriebene Workshop mit diesen Einflüssen und gezielten Reaktionen darauf auseinandersetzen. Die Ziele und Methoden der "klassischen" Informationssicherheit werden auch in zukünftigen komplexen vernetzten Umgebungen Bestand haben, jedoch verlagern sich die Schwerpunkte und Abhängigkeiten zusehends. So stehen beispielsweise Fragestellungen wie Verfügbarkeit und Modell- ierung von Vertrauen in solchen Umgebungen eher im Mittelpunkt als Verfahren zur Sicherstellung von Vertraulichkeit und Integrität. Vor diesem Hintergrund möchte dieser Workshop den Dialog zwischen Experten aus dem Bereich der Informationssicherheit anregen und vertiefen. Dieser Workshop soll - ergänzend zu etablierten Veranstaltungen dieser Art - aktuelle Erkenntnisse und Ergebnisse von Forschungsarbeiten zu- sammentragen, die Lösungen für die sich aus der verstärkten Vernetzung ergebenden Probleme anbieten. Über die Vorstellung von Forschungser- gebnissen hinaus können Konzepte für zukünftige Arbeiten, praktische Erfahrungen und praxisrelevante Erkenntnisse zum Wert dieser Veranstal- tung beitragen. Hintergrund =========== Der Gedanke der angestrebten komplexen Vernetzung von Systemen (als wesentliche Voraussetzung für die Vision eines Ubiquitous Computing) hält in verschiedenen Bereichen Einzug. Durch die Vernetzung von Computersystemen sind kürzeste Wege zwischen Sensoren und Effektoren sowie dadurch bedingt eine erhebliche Verkürzung von Entscheidungspro- zessen möglich geworden, sodass Informationen schnellstmöglich an allen Orten zur Verfügung stehen, an denen sie gebraucht werden. Damit kann man eine erhebliche Steigerung der Effektivität erzielen. Eine intensive Vernetzung zieht eine Reihe von Implikationen auf Archi- tekturen und Systeme nach sich, denen beim Entwurf und der Entwicklung von Verfahren zur Aufrechterhaltung der Informationssicherheit in ver- stärktem Maße Rechnung zu tragen ist. Hierzu gehören: - Komplexe Verknüpfungen von Sicherheitsdiensten (z. B. Zugriffskontrolle, Vertraulichkeit und Non-Repudiation). - komplexere Modelle für Vertrauen (Trust), - besonders große und heterogene Kommunikationsumgebungen (draht- gebunden vs. drahtlos, stationär vs. mobil), - Verknüpfung unterschiedlicher Sicherheitsdomänen und Netzüber- gänge (z. B. durch Information Flow Control), - Ressourcen-Transparenz (die sich auch Angreifer zunutze machen können). Im Rahmen des Workshops soll sich ein breiteres Verständnis für die zukünftig wichtigen Themengebiete und Methodiken entwickeln. Ebenso soll sich eine Diskussion der Sicherheitsrisiken ergeben, die trotz neuartiger Ansätze entstehen können. Insgesamt können so Bereiche auf- gezeigt werden, denen bislang noch zu wenig Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt wurde, in denen aber noch wesentliche Forschungsarbeiten zu leisten sind. Themenvorschläge ================ Es wird um die Einreichung von Beiträgen aus den folgenden und verwand- ten Gebieten - unter spezieller Berücksichtigung des geschilderten Hintergrundes - gebeten: - Intrusion Detection / Response in integrierten Sicherheits- architekturen (z.B. Software Embedded Sensors), - Kooperierende Sicherheitssysteme für Koalitionsumgebungen, - Intruder Tracing / Forensische Analyse in transparenten dynami- schen Netzen, - Intrusion Detection / Response / Tolerance in mobilen Ad-hoc- Netzen, - Sicherheit in Sensornetzen, - Dynamische Modellierung von Sicherheitsrichtlinien (Policies), - Integration von Honeypots, Honeynets und Honeytokens in beste- hende Sicherheitsysteme. Einreichungen ============= Jeder Beitrag wird von mehreren Gutachtern des Programmkomitees bewer- tet. Angenommene Beiträge werden auf dem Workshop präsentiert und dis- kutiert. Die Beiträge werden im Tagungsband der INFORMATIK 2005 ver- öffentlicht, der in der von der GI herausgegebenen Reihe "Lecture Notes in Informatics LNI" erscheinen wird. Akzeptierte Beiträge sollen bis zu 5 Seiten umfassen.
