Final Call for EWSN 2016 Workshop Contributions
***** EXTENDED DEADLINE: November 16, 2016 *****
Intl. Workshop on New Wireless Communication Paradigms for the Internet
of Things (MadCom)
Intl. Workshop on Next Generation Platforms for the Cyber-Physical
Internet (NextMote)

MadCom: New Wireless Communication Paradigms for the Internet of Things
====================================================================
CFP link: http://bit.ly/MadCom2016
For the last two decades radio frequency (RF) has been at the core of
the revolution enabling wireless communication for the Internet of
Things (IoT). But RF communication has been a victim of its own
success, the ever increasing number of devices joining the IoT are
saturating the RF bandwidth. We need alternative ways to exploit RF
technology and to use other means to transmit data wirelessly. The aim
of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners
from different communities to discuss and explore novel wireless
communication technologies for the IoT.
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
+ backscatter communication
+ visible light communication
+ magnetic induction communication
+ infrared communication
+ laser communication
+ camera-based communication
+ thermal-based communication
+ acoustic communication
+ applications for novel wireless communication methods
+ new platforms
+ theoretical models
+ new communication methods with RF signals
+ new network stacks (MAC, Routing) for novel communication technologies

NextMote: Next Generation Platforms for the Cyber-Physical Internet
====================================================================
CFP link: http://bit.ly/NextMote2016
The hardware for networked embedded systems and Internet of Things
(IoT) has evolved significantly over the last decades. During this
time two major classes of platforms have emerged for network gathering
and processing of sensor data: firstly so called "motes" that are based
on a micro controller and well suited for prototyping and testing
hypotheses and solutions in the field, and secondly smartphones as
ubiquitous
and powerful yet mobile communications and computing platforms already
adopted by wide population. However, as the number of devices and
applications continue growing in numbers and reducing in size, novel,
superior platforms should emerge. Let us call these new platforms
"NextMote". What will they be, and how to design them?
The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
+ Modular, multi-core, multi-radio, and reconfigurable architectures for
NextMote
+ Devices for novel communication: dense, sparse, and directional coverage
+ Pushing NextMote towards battery-less operation: energy harvesting,
storage, and transfer
+ Pushing the size of NextMote towards "smart dust", ultra-thin, and
stretchable
+ Unconventional form factors and packaging: wearable, on-body,
printable NextMotes

Elsevier – Pervasive and Mobile Computing
Special Issue on
Pervasive Social Computing
http://www.journals.elsevier.com/pervasive-and-mobile-computing/call-for-pa…
Submission Deadline: 30 November 2015
Pervasive Social Computing represents a new paradigm resulting from
the convergence of Pervasive Mobile Computing with Social Networking;
it aims to take advantage of human social relationships to enable the
attainment of users' tasks in different domains. On the one hand, the
impressive diffusion of Online Social Networking platforms is making
OSNs a pervasive tool for maintaining social relationships between
people. On the other hand, the diffusion of mobile personal devices
with rich networking and computing capabilities is fostering novel
patterns of users interactions through social networks, also depending
on the dynamic context and locations of the users. Last but not least,
pervasive mobile technologies enable completely novel types of social
networking applications and services, such as Mobile Social Networks.
The enormous potential of Pervasive Social Computing is leading
scientific communities in different disciplines, from computer science
to social science, communication science and economy, to analyze,
study and provide new theories, models, methods, technological
solutions and case studies. Interestingly, more and more Pervasive
Mobile Computing technologies are designed using inter-disciplinary
approaches, that exploit models of the users personal and social
behavior to design algorithms, protocols, services and applications.
The special issue aims to encourage the multidisciplinary discussion
involving academics, researchers and professionals on theories,
approaches, analysis, design and evaluation of services and networking
solutions for Pervasive Social Computing. Researchers are increasingly
interested in addressing a wide range of Pervasive Social Computing
challenges residing in Social networks and Social Computing systems
including: their architecture, algorithms and protocols for social
networking services, the creation of new analysis models, the
monitoring of emerging trends, studies on trust, privacy and security
issues and their potential applications.
The list of topics includes, but is not limited to:
- Security, privacy and trust in Pervasive Social Computing systems
- Innovative Pervasive Social Computing services and applications
- Architectures, algorithms and protocols for Pervasive Social
Computing systems
- Mobile networking solutions for Pervasive Social Computing

CALL FOR PAPERS
RAMCOM 2016
The Second International Workshop on Recent
Advances on Machine-to-Machine Communication
http://hanalab.org/RAMCOM-16/
in conjunction with
the 7th International Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks and
Technologies (ANT-2016)
May 23-26, 2016, Madrid, Spain
Call for Papers
==============
Machine-to-machine communication is considered as the next technology
revolution. It involves a huge number of autonomous smart machines,
sharing information and collaborating together. M2M technology
encompasses a large spectrum of applications ranging from e-health and
biomedical sensor networks, to vehicular technology, smart grid and
advanced metering infrastructures. As the voice revenue is in constant
decrease, Telecom operators are energetically supporting this new
technology as it is one of the most promising revenue-generating services.
>From a standardization point of view, the M2M paradigm is still in its
infancy. Both ETSI and 3GPP standards do not provide a seamless and
unified M2M architecture, which is a sine qua none condition to the
healthy and sustained development of the M2M market. Furthermore, the
spreading of M2M technologies still hinge on fully providing a secure
and fault-tolerance to M2M communications. Finally, in a single M2M
network might coexist several radio technologies (Zigebee, bluetooth,
UWB, WiFi and Femtocell...), which could dramatically impact M2M
channels with fluctuation and noise.
This workshop aims to gather researchers, engineers and practitioners
both from academia and industry as well as end users who aim to present
recent advances on Machine-to-Machine communications.
Topics of Interest
================
The workshop proposes to address, but is not limited to, the following
topics related to M2M communications, paradigms, frameworks and
innovative applications:
- M2M Standardization progress
- Spectrum management for M2M
- Green M2M communication
- M2M system architecture and components
- Security, trust and privacy of M2M devices and services
- Mobility management for M2M
- M2M and information centric networking
- Reliability management for M2M
- Medium access technologies and protocols for M2M communication
- M2M traffic models
- M2M and Smart Grid
- M2M and vehicular technology
- M2M and smart homes
- Cloud support for M2M applications
- New M2M applications, services, and business models
- M2M testbeds and field trials
- Mobile and distributed sensing
- Decentralized algorithms for M2M control and communication

The IEEE PerCom International Workshop on the Impact of Human Mobility
on Pervasive Systems and Applications (PerMoby 2016)
http://vecchio.iet.unipi.it/permoby
March 14-18 2016, Sydney, Australia
(the final date will be announced later)
in conjunction with PerCom 2016 (http://www.percom.org)
March 14-18 2016, Sydney, Australia
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
CALL FOR PAPERS
The key components of many pervasive systems and applications are already
deployed in the form of ubiquitous commercial products carried by humans.
Human mobility makes it possible for such key components to interact,
promoting cooperation and sharing of content, services and resources.
Smartphones, tablet PCs, and other personal devices act as mobile computing
elements able to gather information about the surrounding environment
according to the mobility of users. In other situations these devices
operate as mobile nodes of the computing and/or networking infrastructure,
where interaction and communication occur opportunistically.
The goal of PerMoby is to explore the impact of human mobility on the
achievement of the pervasive computing vision. The focus is on pervasive
applications, systems, and protocols where mobility plays an active role
in achieving the end goals.
Original papers addressing both theoretical and practical aspects of
human-centric applications and systems are solicited. Papers describing
prototype implementations and deployment of such applications and systems
are particularly welcome. The submission of papers on controversial issues
is also encouraged. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- pervasive systems and applications based on (or influenced by) human
mobility
- mobile phone sensing applications and systems
- opportunistic and participatory sensing, and anything in between
- opportunistic computing
- pervasive systems with humans in the loop
- wearable sensing systems
- mobility models
- distributed computing approaches that rely on human mobility
- impact of human mobility on wireless communication
- green pervasive applications that leverage human mobility
- mobility aware protocols
- opportunistic networking
- pervasive social networking
PUBLICATION AND INDEXING
Papers are published in the combined proceedings of the IEEE PerCom
Workshops and will appear on IEEExplore.
According to Google’s metrics, the combined workshop proceedings are
characterised by high values of h5 index and h5-median index, respectively
equal to 27 and 36. This makes the IEEE PerCom Workshops one of the

Dear colleagues,
You can find below the CFP for the 1st International IEEE INFOCOM
Workshop on Software-Driven Flexible and Agile Networking (SWFAN). We
apologise in case you received multiple copies. The workshop website is:
http://www.swfan.org <http://www.swfan.org/>
Best Regards,
Lefteris Mamatas
1st International Workshop on Software-Driven Flexible and Agile
Networking (SWFAN 2016), 10-15 April, San Francisco, CA, USA
(in conjunction with IEEE INFOCOM 2016)
Scope and Topics of Interest
The NFV/SDN paradigms promote the deployment of Network Functions (NF)
as software components into cloud infrastructures, and the
identification of relevant abstractions for their configuration, control
and management. Such NFs can comprise processing elements in the data
plane (e.g., packet inspection, filtering, flow-level monitoring, or
access control) as well as control-plane components (e.g., signaling,
routing, dynamic load balancing). This paradigm shift essentially
enables new cloud service models, i.e., NF-as-a-service (NFaaS), which
can lead to significant operational and technology investment cost
savings for service providers. Beyond that, telecom operators can
greatly benefit from NFV/SDN, considering the increasing trend to
implement mobile communication network functions in software.
NFV/SDN orchestration can satisfy the evolving requirements of service
and infrastructure providers with respect to the resource constraints,
dynamic network conditions and service environments. Virtualized NFs
should be deployed, located, scaled, and orchestrated in a holistic
manner to realize novel services, through exposing their configurations
using standardized interfaces, whereas SDN can provide a flexible
network plane along these lines. Furthermore, the integration of
protocol and application/service processing creates opportunities for
enhancing the performance of cloud applications and services when
accessed by mobile users.
In this respect, SWFAN aims at bringing together researchers, engineers,
and practitioners to discuss challenging aspects of NFV/SDN
orchestration, such as the elastic provisioning of computing, storage,
and network resources for NF deployment and scaling in the cloud, the
development of new models, protocols, algorithms, and abstractions for
more flexible and agile network control, management and operation, as
well as NFaaS negotiation, contracting, billing, and SLA management.
We solicit submissions of previously unpublished work on the following
topics of interest (but not limited to):
- Resource allocation for NF consolidation in clouds
- Algorithms and methods for network service embedding
- Interoperability among cloud providers for network service embedding
- Abstractions and techniques for network service reconfiguration and
scaling
- Service chaining for policy enforcement
- Architectures and interfaces for NF configuration and control
- NF verification, systematic testing, fault management, protection
- NF migration and state management
- SDN for network service deployment
- New models, protocols, and abstractions for flexible and agile network
operations
- Design and implementation of NF stores
- NFaaS negotiation and contracting
- Resource pricing and billing for NFaaS
- SLAs for NFaaS
- Mobile Edge Computing
- Applications of NFV in cellular and mobile networks
- Experiences from NFV/SDN deployments in production networks
Submission Instructions
Submitted papers should not exceed 6 pages in IEEE format
(double-column, 10pt font). Papers should be submitted via EDAS. All
accepted and presented papers will be published in the conference
proceedings and on IEEE Xplore.

reliability and fault tolerance. The purpose of this special issue is to
present the state-of-the-art CPS research for building efficient smart
homes, buildings, and infrastructures. The submissions should address
the above challenges with a system perspective that includes both cyber
and physical aspects, and should articulate how proposed approaches may
be applied in practical CPS systems.
