-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Special issue on eHealth in IEEE Systems Journal Datum: Fri, 14 Nov 2014 16:30:24 +0000 Von: Sana Ullah <sanajcs(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Sana Ullah <sanajcs(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS <Special Issue on “Communications Technologies and Infrastructures for Smart eHealth Systems” in IEEE Systems Journal> SCOPE Research advances in healthcare domain have facilitated the integration of different technologies for smart, cost-effective, reliable, and pervasive health monitoring of chronic diseases - which have affected around one billion people worldwide. Current research efforts focus on developing real-time communication methods, mostly for Body Area Networks (BANs) that are used to deliver patients´ information effectively. These efforts are limited to communication within a BAN, however less attention has been given to connect multiple BANs to remote servers in real-time. In addition, there is a limited study on the integration of BANs with different technologies including mobile cloud computing - a technology that may assist in storing and processing the huge amount of BAN data at competitive costs. Machine to Machine (M2M) is also considered to be a valuable tool in delivering BAN data to a remote server/cloud for further analysis. This may assist in reducing risks and cost of remote health monitoring. Unlike conventional research in BANs where researchers focused on individual networks, there is a need to develop innovative communication methods with a focus on complete and smart eHealth systems. This smart eHealth system must integrate the aforementioned technologies with multiple BANs, and provide rich healthcare services to end users. It calls for research on versatile topics ranging from Physical (PHY) and Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols to BANs coexistence, traffic characterization, cloud resource allocation, and cloud monitoring and maintenance. This special issue will focus on novel communication methods for smart eHealth systems, by identifying new perspectives and highlight potential research issues and challenges. Specifically, this special issue will demonstrate how the emerging technologies including cloud computing and/or M2M could be used in future healthcare systems. Original review and survey articles will be considered as well. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - M2M communication methods - Energy-efficient PHY/MAC and networking protocols - BANs and mobile cloud computing - Cloud resource allocation and monitoring - Wearable and implantable computing - IoT for smart eHealth systems - Fault tolerance, reliability and scalability - Traffic characterization - Coexistence issues of multiple BANs - Security and privacy - QoS issues in BANs/cloud computing - Experimental and simulation-based methods - Case studies of smart eHealth architectures Papers should address the above specific topics from the system perspective and in the context of eHealth systems in order to be considered for this special issue. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Authors are invited to submit original research contributions by following the detailed instructions given in the “Information for Authors” at http://www.ieeesystemsjournal.org. In the cover letter, authors should explicitly state that the paper is submitted to the “Special Issue on Communication Technologies and Infrastructures for Smart eHealth Systems”.

MobiSPC-2015 will be held in the city of Belfort. Belfort exists since the Roman period and was official recognized as an autonomous city in 1307. From this date, the city was under the authority of the Burgundy Duchy and Austrian Empire. In 1638, Belfort becomes a French city. After the war of 1871, France looses the Alsace and Lorraine regions, except the city of Belfort for its outstanding defense. The statue of the Lion of Belfort was made by Bartholdi to commemorate this event. Belfort is home to multiple academic institutions, and where visitors can enjoy a variety of activities and entertainment. MobiSPC-2015 is co-organized & co-hosted by the University of Technology of Belfort-Montbeliard, France. The University was created in 1999 from the fusion of two engineering schools. It is member of the network of the Universities of Technology with Compiegnes, Troyes and Shanghai (China).

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE Internet of Things Journal, Special Issue on Cloud Computing for IoT Datum: Thu, 13 Nov 2014 11:29:38 +0100 Von: Edith Ngai <edith.ngai(a)IT.UU.SE> Antwort an: Edith Ngai <edith.ngai(a)IT.UU.SE> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG ==================================================== IEEE Internet of Things Journal, Special Issue on Cloud Computing for IoT Submission Deadline: December 1st 2014 CALL FOR PAPERS ==================================================== Over recent past years there has been a growing interest in the ability of embedded devices, sensors, actuators to communicate and create a ubiquitous cyber-physical world. The growth of the notion of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the rapid development of technologies such as short range mobile communication and improved energy-efficiency is expected to create a pervasive connection of “things”. This will inevitably result in the generation of enormous amount of data, which have to be stored, processed and accessed. Cloud computing has long been recognized as a paradigm for big data storage and analytics. The combination of cloud computing and IoT can enable ubiquitous sensing services and powerful processing of sensing data streams beyond the capability of individual “things”, thus stimulating innovations in both fields. For example, cloud platforms allow the sensing data to be stored and used intelligently for smart monitoring and actuation with the smart devices. Novel data fusion algorithms, machine learning methods, and artificial intelligence techniques can be implemented and run centralized or distributed on the cloud to achieve automated decision making. These will boost the development of new applications such as smart cities, grids, and transportation systems. New challenges however arise when IoT meets cloud – there is an urgent need for novel network architectures that seamlessly integrate them, and protocols that facilitate big data streaming from IoT to the cloud. QoS and QoE, as well as data security, privacy, and reliability, are critical concerns during the integration. This special issue solicits high-quality original research papers which focuses on the integration of cloud computing and IoT. We encourage submissions on theoretical, practical, as well as experimental studies, from both academia and industry, related to all aspects of Cloud Computing for IoT. High-quality survey papers that review the cutting edge research in this field would also be considered. Topics of interests include (but are not limited to) the following categories: - Network architecture for cloud and IoT integration - IoT and cloud data management - Cloud computing for large-scale sensor data stream processing - Cloud-assisted machine to machine communication - Innovative applications of cloud-based sensing architecture, e.g., smart cities, smart grids, transportation - Protocol design and modification for cloud and IoT integration (e.g., CoAP, IPv6) - Data security, privacy and reliability for cloud and IoT integration - Cloud-assisted IoT mobility management and QoE/QoS enhancement - Cloud-assisted ubiquitous sensing services and applications Important Dates ========================= Submission Deadline: December 1st 2014 First Reviews Due: March 31st 2014 Revision Due: May 1st 2014 Second Reviews Due/Notification: June 20st 2015 Final Manuscript Due: July 20th 2015 Publication Date: August 2015 Submission ========================= The special issue seeks submission of papers that present novel original results and findings on Cloud Computing for IoT. Solicited original submissions must not be currently under consideration for publication in other venues. Author guidelines and submission information can be found at http://iot.ieee.org/journal. All manuscripts should be submitted through Manuscript Central: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/iot.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [InternetTC] CFP: ACM TIST Special Issue on "Crowd in Intelligent Systems" Datum: Wed, 12 Nov 2014 14:34:48 +0800 Von: Sheng-Wei (Kuan-Ta) Chen <swc(a)IIS.SINICA.EDU.TW> An: itc(a)COMSOC.ORG [Apologies if you receive this more than once] ------====== Call for Papers ======----- ACM Transactions on Intelligent Systems and Technology Special Issue on Crowd in Intelligent Systems = AIMS AND SCOPE = Crowdsourcing, i.e., outsourcing tasks to an indefinite crowd, has now become a common strategy to resolve problems that are difficult to computers. It has proven the intelligence, wisdom, or judgments from the crowd, when appropriately combined, can be effective in addressing challenges in various areas, from knowledge organization (such as Wikipedia), business investment, policy making, government transparency to scientific development. In particular, the contributions from the crowd are stretching out the horizon of intelligent systems by filling the gap between artificial intelligence and human intelligence with the wisdom of crowd. Successful applications can readily been seen in the fields of computer-human interaction, computer vision, information retrieval, social computing, biomedical research (such as Foldit), and information and multimedia systems. The uses in crowdsourcing have opened up many new forms of intelligent systems and technologies most of which have barely been explored to date. However, challenging research questions still lie in the way to unleash the potentials of the crowd as a part of intelligent systems. This special issue aims to address these challenges in the hope of overcoming the obstacles blocking the road toward intelligent systems where artificial- and human-intelligence perfectly harmonize. The dimensions listed below indicate the range of work that is relevant to the special issue. Each article is expected to make a significant scientific contribution along one or more of these dimensions. In case of doubt about the relevance of your topic, please contact the special issue guest editors. = TOPIC DIMENSIONS = - General: Theoretical, experimental, and/or methodological developments advancing state-of-the-art knowledge of crowdsourcing for intelligent systems - Novel applications: Novel uses of contributions from the crowd for intelligent systems (e.g., complicated tasks rather than simple judgment or labeling tasks) - Evaluation: Evaluation of the design and quality of intelligent systems by the crowd - Machine learning: Effective learning and information aggregation from noisy crowd inputs; quality assurance and cheat detection for the crowd contributions - Human factors: Effective interfaces and workflow for the task workers, especially for complicated, compound tasks - Infrastructure: Programming languages, tools and platforms providing enhanced support for crowdsourcing; security, privacy, trust, and reputation management in crowdsourcing for intelligent systems - Economics and incentives: Enable effective and efficient crowd contributions that traditionally would only be possible by expensive domain experts - Ethics: Theory, design, or mechanisms that address ethical issues in adopting crowd’s efforts in intelligent systems. Possible ethical issues include education, labor exploitation, crowd awareness (of the tasks they perform), and alienation. - Inherent biases, limitations and trade-offs of combining crowd intelligence and artificial intelligence = SCHEDULE = Submission due:16 January 2015 First review completed:17 April 2015 Final manuscript due:19 June 2015 Publication: September 2015 = HOW TO SUBMIT = Please see the instructions for authors on the ACM TIST website (tist.acm.org <http://tist.acm.org>) and the special issue CfP website http://www.iis.sinica.edu.tw/~swc/tist_crowd/ The papers will be evaluated for their originality, contribution significance, soundness, clarity, and overall quality. The interest of contributions will be assessed in terms of technical and scientific findings, contribution to the knowledge and understanding of the problem, methodological advancements, and/or applicative values. = GUEST EDITORS = Irwin King, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Kuan-Ta Chen, Academia Sinica, Taiwan Omar Alonso, Microsoft Research, United States Martha Larson, Delft University of Technology, Netherlands = CONTACT US = For questions or more information, please contact the guest editors Irwin King (king(a)cse.cuhk.edu.hk <mailto:king@cse.cuhk.edu.hk>), Kuan-Ta Chen (swc(a)iis.sinica.edu.tw <mailto:swc@iis.sinica.edu.tw>), Omar Alonso (oralonso(a)gmail.com <mailto:oralonso@gmail.com>), and Martha Larson (m.a.larson(a)tudelft.nl <mailto:m.a.larson@tudelft.nl>). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Internet Technical Committee http://committees.comsoc.org/itc/ To subscribe or unsubscribe: https://comsoc-listserv.ieee.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=itc&A=1
