Opportunistic networking represents a key communication paradigm for this vision. Either as a standalone communication mode or as a complement to infrastructure-based communication, opportunistic networking leverages the mobility of end users to enhance their ability to communicate in the absence of reliable end-to-end connectivity. Opportunistic networking opens up many possibilities but also poses countless new challenges. The goal of the AOC 2016 workshop is to serve as a forum for researchers, professionals, application developers, and other experts from both academia and industry to exchange new ideas, discuss new solutions, and share their experiences. As with previous editions, this year's workshop is particularly interested in novel research directions, such as service co! mposition techniques, co-existence with infrastructure networks such solutions based on fog or edge computing, and insights from complex network analysis applied to autonomic and opportunistic communications. The workshop will solicit original papers addressing theoretical and practical aspects of autonomic and opportunistic communications as well as papers describing prototype implementations and deployments. Topics of interest for AOC 2016 include, but are not limited to: - Techniques for data dissemination and replication - Context and social awareness mechanisms and algorithms - Autonomous and self-adaptive systems for smart cities - Autonomous solutions for IoT and cyber-physical systems - Solutions based on fog or edge computing - Big data for autonomic and opportunistic systems - Mobile social networking algorithms and applications - Co-existence of opportunistic networks with infrastructure mobile wireless networks - Mobility models and statistical analysis of mobility traces - Service composition in autonomic and opportunistic networks - Cognition-driven information processing and decision making - Performance modelling, scaling laws, and fundamental limits for autonomic and opportunistic communications - Participatory and urban sensing in autonomic and opportunistic networks - Game-theoretic insights to the operation of autonomic and opportunistic networks - Trust, security, and reputation - Autonomic and opportunistic communication testbeds and prototypes, measurement data from real experiments - Socio-economic models for autonomic and opportunistic communications - SNA and graph modeling for autonomic and opportunistic networks - Autonomic and opportunistic solutions for mobile cloud applications - Applications and middleware support - Routing, transport, and reliability issues PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION -------------------------------- Submission will be managed electronically through EDAS (https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=21826). Papers should neither have been published elsewhere nor being currently under review by another conference or journal. Manuscripts are limited to 6 pages, single spacing, double column, and must strictly adhere to the template format. Accepted papers will appear in the symposium proceedings published by IEEE. There will be no separate workshop registration, as one single registration will cover both conference and workshops participation. At least one author of each accepted paper must register to the workshop and present his/her work.

Palazzi <cpalazzi(a)MATH.UNIPD.IT> Antwort an: cpalazzi(a)MATH.UNIPD.IT An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG [apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CfP] ******************************************************************** * * Call for Papers * * DroNet 2016 * * The 2nd Workshop on * Micro Aerial Vehicle Networks, Systems, and Applications * for Civilian Use * * (organized in conjunction with ACM MobiSys 2016) * * Singapore * June 26, 2016 * * Submissions due: April 4, 2016 (extended) * ******************************************************************** OVERVIEW ======== Micro and nano aerial vehicles (MAVs and NAVs), often referred to as drones, are unmanned aerial vehicles of various forms, such as small quadrocopters, airplanes, balloons, or tiny flapping wing vehicles. They are novel mobile unmanned systems currently investigated in various mission-oriented civilian applications. Recent popular applications employing MAVs are 3D-mapping, search and rescue, surveillance, farmland and construction monitoring, delivery of light-weight objects and products (e.g., Amazon's announced drone delivery system), or video taking during sports events. Such drones are autonomous systems with a good awareness of their environment, provided by rich on board sensors, such as gyroscopes, accelerometers, lasers, GPS units and cameras, and embedded image processing. Nevertheless, all useful applications require a reliable communication link, or even rely on fleets of MAVs. DroNet welcomes contributions dealing with communication aspects of micro aerial vehicles, theoretical studies, algorithm and protocol design for flexible aerial networks, as well as mission-oriented contributions dealing with requirements, constraints, safety issues, and regulation. We are particularly looking for papers reporting on system aspects and experimental results, summaries of challenges or advancements, measurements, or innovative applications.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Call for Papers - 23rd ACM Conference on Computer and Communication Security (ACM CCS 2016) Datum: Wed, 2 Mar 2016 16:00:21 +0100 Von: Giovanni Livraga <giovanni.livraga(a)UNIMI.IT> Antwort an: Giovanni Livraga <giovanni.livraga(a)UNIMI.IT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG ACM CCS 2016 Call for Papers 23rd ACM Conference on Computer and Communication Security October 24 - 28, 2016, Hofburg Palace, Vienna, Austria Paper Submission Due: May 23, 2016 23:59 UTC-11 First round reviews sent to authors: July 5, 2016 Author comments due on: July 8, 2016 23:59 UTC-11 Acceptance Notification: July 22, 2016 Camera Ready Papers Due: August 16, 2016 The ACM CCS conference seeks submissions from academia, government, and industry presenting novel research results in all practical and theoretical aspects of computer and communications security. Papers should be related to the construction, evaluation, application, or operation of secure systems. Theoretical papers must make a convincing argument for the relevance of the results to secure systems. All topic areas related to computer and communications security are of interest and in scope. Accepted papers will be published by ACM Press in the conference proceedings. Paper Submission Process ------------------------ Submissions must be made by the deadline of Monday, May 23, 2016 23:59 UTC-11. The review process will be carried out in two phases and authors will have an opportunity to comment on the first-phase reviews. Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal, conference or workshop. Simultaneous submission of the same work is not allowed. Note that submitted papers cannot be withdrawn from the process after the first phase reviews are received by authors. Authors of accepted papers must guarantee that their papers will be presented at the conference. Paper Format ------------ Submissions must be at most 12 pages in double-column ACM format (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/ proceedings-templates) including the bibliography and well-marked appendices. Submissions must be anonymized and avoid obvious self-references. Only PDF files will be accepted. Submissions not meeting these guidelines risk rejection without consideration of their merits. Conflicts of Interest --------------------- The program co-chairs require cooperation from both authors and program committee members to prevent submissions from being evaluated by reviewers who have a conflict of interest. During the submission process, we will ask authors to identify members of the program committee with whom they have a conflict of interest. This includes anyone with close personal or professional relationship to any of the authors, such as close family members, people from the same department/group, and recent collaborators (e.g. collaborated on a joint paper in the last two years). It also includes anyone in a position of substantial influence on (or by) the a uthors, such as advisor or advisee (at any time in the past), line-of-management relationship, grant program manager, etc. In rare cases, we will allow conflict-of-interest designation due to personal or professional animosity. In such cases, we require that in addition to marking the conflict during submission, the authors contact the program co-chairs by email and explain the reason for this conflict. Program committee members who have a conflict of interest with a paper, including program co-chairs, will be excluded from evaluation and discussion of the paper. In the case of a program co-chair, the other co-chairs who do not have conflicts will be responsible for managing that paper. ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [InternetTC] Extremecom 2016 - The Mendonoma Expedition - Call for Papers and Demos Datum: Tue, 1 Mar 2016 14:44:51 +0800 Von: CHATZOPOULOS Dimitrios <dcab(a)CSE.UST.HK> An: itc(a)COMSOC.ORG [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP] ****************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS AND DEMOS 7th Extreme Conference on Communication and Computing - The Mendonoma Expedition ExtremeCom 2016 14-19 August 2016, Manchester, Medocino county, CA, USA http://www.extremecom.org/ ****************************************************************** Scope ----- The Extreme Conference on Communication and Computing (ExtremeCom) brings together researchers and practitioners in areas related to communications in rural, remote or other extreme environments, and computing in extreme operating conditions such as extreme temperatures and energy constraints, extreme quantities ("big data"), extremely large-scale systems, and extreme levels of threat and uncertainty, in order to gain experience and insight into the challenges that such environments pose for the network and the users. We welcome a broad range of topics concerning both technical and economical aspects, for example wireless communication, mobile computing, low power devices and protocols, delay tolerant networks and other networking paradigms, distributed computing paradigms, big data, distributed systems, cloud computing, business and services models, user experiences and web applications. Researches addressing computing challenges in general mobile environments (even not completely extreme) are also welcomed by the conference. Following on from the success of ExtremeCom 2009 - The Midnight Sun Expedition in Laponia, Sweden, ExtremeCom 2010 - The Himalayan Expedition in Dharamsala, India, ExtremeCom 2011 - The Amazon Expedition in Manaus, Brazil, ExtremeCom 2012 - The Swiss Alps Winter Expedition in Zurich, Switzerland, ExtremeCom 2013 - The Volcanic Expedition in the Eyjafjallajökull Volcano region in Iceland, and ExtremeCom 2014 - The Galapagos Expedition in Ecuador, we present the ExtremeCom 2016 edition: The Mendonoma Expedition. The conference will contain 3 days of excursions in the stunning nature of coastal northern California (Mendocino county). Along the way, participants will get to see and experience the varying landscape and visit coastal areas, explore the Stornetta lands national monument, and hike to the Point Arena hot springs along the Garcia river. During these excursions, we will visit the landing site of the original trans-pacific coaxial cables, which is today one of North-America's most important transoceanic fiber landing station, as well as several deployment sites of the FurtherReach.Net rural network where participants will interact with subscribers, operators and developers of this service to learn from their experience. The immersion will not only give a better idea of both the technical and user requirements of such rural deployments, but it will also give many opportunities for informal research discussions between the participants. Participants that have their own software for scenarios like this will also, to as great an extent as possible, be encouraged to test and demonstrate it within this environment. After the excursions, there will be two days of paper presentations and demos. Focus will still be on informal research discussions, with the hope that the field experience will give participants the ability to discuss the topics in a new light. ****************************************************************** Important dates --------------- Submission deadline: May 24, 2016 Notification of acceptance: June 15, 2016 Early registration deadline: July 10, 2016 Registration deadline: July 21, 2016 Conference dates: August 14-19, 2016 ****************************************************************** Submission Guidelines --------------------- Participants should submit 6 page papers about ideas and visions about the topics of the conference or demo proposals to be shown during the conference. Visionary and thought-provoking papers that are likely to generate much discussion during the conference are especially solicited. The aim of the conference is to maintain an informal environment, where new research ideas can be discussed and developed. We will also have a demo session where participants can show their implementations and systems. If you want to show a demo, please submit a 2 page demo proposal using the same submission system as for conference papers, including the prefix "Demo: " in the title. We only accept PDF files, no greater than 6 pages in length (2 pages for the demos), including text, figures and references. Manuscripts should use the ACM templates (for LaTeX, please use Option 2 files), with 9pt fonts. Topics for the conference include, but are not limited to: ---------------------------------------------------------- * Testbeds for large-scale sustainable testing of mobile communication systems * Real deployments of networks in extreme environments * Business and service models for networks in rural, remote, and other challenging environments * Delay tolerant networking * User experience research * Big data research such as mining and modeling of mobility and social network * Cloud computing for extreme scalability * Mesh networks and sensor networks * Low-power and intermittent-power protocols * Mechanisms for emergency and urgent communications * Distributed computing for mobile environments * Networked applications and services * Operating system and middleware support for mobile computing and networking * Security, privacy, and trustworthiness of extreme communications * Underwater networking * Robotic communications and mobile augmented reality * Protocols, architectures, and applications for the Internet of Things Due to logistics, the number of participants will be limited. Priority will be given to authors of papers and those who register first. ****************************************************************** Organizers ****************************************************************** General co-chairs: ------------------ Pan Hui, HKUST, Hong Kong Anders Lindgren, SICS Swedish ICT, Sweden Local organization: ------------------- Yahel Ben-David, De Novo Group, USA Gary Levenson-Palmer, USA Publicity and publication chair: -------------------------------- Dimitris Chatzopoulos, HKUST, Hong Kong Yang Chen, Fudan university, Shanghai, China Web chair: ---------- Dimitris Chatzopoulos, HKUST, Hong Kong Technical Program Committee: ---------------------------- Scott Burleigh, JPL/NASA, USA Elwyn Davies, Folly Consulting, UK Michael Doering, Bosch Research, Germany Marco Fiore, CNR, Italy Alfredo Goldman, University of California Irvine, USA Christine Julien, University of Texas at Austin, USA James Kwok, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Hong Kong Jörg Ott, TU Munich, Germany Zhonghong Ou, Aalto University, Finland Veljko Pejovic, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia Arjuna Sathiaseelan, University of Cambridge, UK Jan Seedorf, NEC Labs, Germany Yu Wang, University of North Carolina at Charlotte Klaus Wehrle, RWTH Aachen University, Germany Lars Wolf, TU Braunschweig, Germany Steering Committee: ------------------- Jon Crowcroft, University of Cambridge, UK Avri Doria, USA Tristan Henderson, University of St. Andrews, UK Pan Hui, HKUST, Hong Kong Anders Lindgren, SICS Swedish ICT, Sweden ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Internet Technical Committee http://committees.comsoc.org/itc/ To subscribe or unsubscribe: https://comsoc-listserv.ieee.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=itc&A=1
