We would appreciate if you could circulate this email to colleagues and relevant mailing lists. Call for Papers With smart-phones in their pockets, more than 1 billion people now have access to sensing, computation, and connectivity, making it possible to harness the power of the crowd to collect and share data about their surroundings and experiences on a massive scale. Crowdsensing/crowdsourcing is a novel data collection paradigm that leverages this vast mobile sensor network, making it possible to expand the scope of research endeavors and address civic issues without requiring the purchase of specialized sensors or the installation and maintenance of network infrastructure. Data collected using such applications may come from unexpected yet interesting and valuable sources and may allow for collecting data in previously inaccessible locations and contexts. This new data collection paradigm introduces several research challenges. Privacy is a primary concern for users who contribute sensitive or personally identifiable information (PII). Incentive mechanisms for participation may be needed to encourage people to volunteer their resources to collect data. Methods are needed for processing large-scale, user-generated data sets into meaningful information, and for assessing and understanding the quality of information to help guide decision-making. Approaches, which involve the crowd in such data analysis tasks, with humans serving as a source of semantic information, interpretation, and evaluation of crowdsensing/crowdsourcing data, can also help to build an understanding of the physical, computational, and socio-technical environment. At the same time, with the deployment of a tremendous number of sensing devices collecting a huge amount of data for smart cities, smart home, connected cars, e-halth or Industries, the Internet of Things is also facing similar challenges regarding data privacy, scalability, data processing or visualization. Thus, there is need to provide relevant data science tools for citizens in order to extract all the properties of the data and provide novel integrated services with data from the crowd or sensors. The objective of this workshop is to provide a forum for discussion, debate, and collaboration focused on ideas, trends, techniques, and recent advances in crowdsensing and crowdsourcing, as well as Internet of Things and sensed devices. Similarly to our past editions, CASPer 2019 will also feature an invited speech and a panel discussion devoted to the latest key developments in the crowdsensing and crowdsourcing domain. We invite original research contributions that advance the state-of-the-art as well as position papers, which pose a new direction or present a controversial point of view. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Algorithms to handle, process, and visualize large-scale crowdsensing/crowdsourcing data sets, e.g. big data analytics in crowdsensing/crowdsourcing - Data integrity, security, privacy, and provenance for crowdsensing/crowdsourcing data - Trust and reputation systems for crowdsensing/crowdsourcing applications - Determining and assessing Quality of Information for crowdsensing/crowdsourcing data - Crowd-assisted (human-in-the-loop) approaches to analyzing crowdsensing/crowdsourcing data - Context modeling and reasoning in crowdsensing/crowdsourcing applications - Incentive mechanisms for participation in crowdsensing/crowdsourcing applications - Supporting crowdsensing/crowdsourcing in heterogeneous networks - Crowd assisted pervasive systems and communications - Novel use of sensors for crowdsensing/crowdsourcing applications - Energy-efficient mechanisms for crowdsensing/crowdsourcing applications - Programming abstractions and middleware for crowdsensing/crowdsourcing applications - Novel large-scale crowdsensing/crowdsourcing applications - Citizen science and Data science tools for Crowdsourcing and Crowdsensing - Internet of Things, Decision Support System, sustainability support, prototyping, test-beds, and real-world implementations. Submitted papers must be original contributions that are unpublished and are not currently under consideration for publication by other venues. Submissions are limited to a maximum length of 6 pages and must adhere to IEEE format (2 column, 10pt. font). Templates are available via the workshop website. Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE PerCom Workshop Proceedings.

Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are physical and engineered systems whose operations are monitored, coordinated, controlled, and integrated by computing and communication. Broad CPS deployment is transforming how we interact with the physical world as profoundly as the world wide web transformed how we interact with one another, and further harnessing their capabilities holds the possibility of enormous societal and economic impact. ACM/IEEE ICCPS is the premier single-track conference for reporting advances in all CPS aspects, including theory, tools, applications, systems, test-beds and field deployments. The conferences focuses on the core science to develop fundamental principles that underpin the integration of cyber and physical elements, as well as on the development of technologies, tools, architectures and infrastructure for building CPS systems, highlighting the design, implementation, and investigation of CPS applications. Application domains include (but are not limited to): transportation, energy, water, agriculture, medical and assistive technology, sensor and social networks, robotics, smart cities, ecology, and supply-chains. Among the relevant research areas are security, control, optimization, machine learning, game theory, mechanism design, mobile and cloud computing, model-based design, verification, data mining / analytics, signal processing, and human-in-the-loop shared or supervisory control. All submissions must be in English. Only original papers that are not submitted or published in other conferences or journals will be considered. Manuscripts should have a main body with no more than 10 pages. Up to 2 additional pages of appendices may follow the main body of the paper, within the same submitted .pdf file. The submissions must be in the ACM two-column conference style, US Letter (8.5 inch x 11 inch) paper size, and 10pt text font size. Important Dates: Full paper submission deadline: October 17, AoE, 2018 (FIRM deadline, see CPSWeek deadline policy), Author notification: December 28, 2018, Camera-ready paper due: February 15, 2019.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [ACM/IEEE IoTDI 2019] Call for Papers Datum: Tue, 9 Oct 2018 10:02:14 +0000 Von: Olaf Landsiedel <olafl(a)chalmers.se> An: Olaf Landsiedel <olafl(a)chalmers.se> [We apologize if you receive multiple copies.] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS Fourth ACM/IEEE International Conference on Internet of Things Design and Implementation (IoTDI) April 15-18, 2019 (Montreal, Canada) Colocated with CPS-IoT WEEK 2019 http://conferences.computer.org/iotdi/2019/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Abstract registration: October 10, 2018 [11:59 PM GMT-12] (firm)** **Paper submission: October 17, 2018 [11:59 PM GMT-12] (firm)** The ACM/IEEE International Conference on Internet of Things Design and Implementation (IoTDI) is a premier venue on IoT. To reflect the interconnection of IoT with both cloud computing and cyber-physical systems, IoTDI is co-located in even years with IEEE IC2E and in odd years with CPS-IoT WEEK. In 2019, IoTDI will be held for the fourth time, and will be part of CPS-IoT WEEK 2019. A confluence of technological advances marks the advent of a new era. World data volume is growing at an unprecedented pace, much of it from embedded devices. Smart cities are expected to grow, fed by millions of data points from multitudes of human and physical sources. Cyber-attacks grow more nefarious, bringing down physical systems. Social networks are becoming ubiquitous, offering information on physical things. The separation between cyber, physical, and social systems is blurring. Collectively, these developments lead to the emergence of a new field, where the networking and physical realms meet. It is the field of the Internet of Things (IoT). This conference is an interdisciplinary forum to discuss challenges, technologies, and emerging directions in system design and implementation that pertain to IoT. This conference invites researchers and practitioners from academia, industry and government, and accepts original, previously unpublished work on a range of topics related to IoT. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Analytic foundations and theory of IoT - Reliability, security, timeliness, and robustness in IoT systems - Novel protocols and network abstractions - Data streaming architectures and machine learning analytics for IoT - IoT-motivated cyber-physical and Industrial IoT (IIoT) systems - Novel quality requirements and their enforcement mechanisms - Cloud back-ends and resource management for IoT applications - Edge and fog computing - Personal, wearable, and other embedded networked front-ends - Social computing and human-in-the-loop issues - Applications domains (e.g., smart cities, smart health, smart buildings, smart transportation) - Deployment experiences, case studies & lessons learned - Evaluation and testbeds Accepted papers of particular merit will be invited to submit an extended version to ACM Transactions on the Internet of Things (TIOT). Joint statement from the IPSN and IoTDI Program Chairs: IPSN and IoTDI are collaborating to create new synergies, and also exploiting their CPS-IoT WEEK bi-annual co-location. Prospective authors are thus strongly encouraged to consider these guidelines when submitting papers: - Contributions of an embedded nature and applying to network segments from the IoT gateway to field devices should be submitted to IPSN. Examples include localization, low-power wireless networking, and embedded data processing. - Contributions with an end-to-end perspective or applying to network segments from the IoT gateway to the cloud should be submitted to IoTDI. Examples include cloud data processing, edge computing, and systems covering multiple network segments. The TPC chairs of both conferences may agree to move a submitted paper from one to the other if they see a better fit, subject to the authors’ consent. The final decision about where to submit, and therefore what program committee will review the work, ultimately rests with the authors. General Chairs: Klara Nahrstedt, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA Olaf Landsiedel, Chalmers University, Sweden Program Chairs: Gian Pietro Picco, University of Trento, Italy Prashant Shenoy, University of Massachusetts at Amherst, USA Important Dates: Abstract registration: October 10, 2018 [11:59 PM GMT-12](firm deadline) Paper submission: October 17, 2018 [11:59 PM GMT-12](firm deadline) Author rebuttal due: December 10, 2018 [11:59 PM GMT-12] Notification deadline: January 15, 2019 [11:59 PM GMT-12] Camera-ready submission: February 15, 2019 [11:59 PM GMT-12] (firm deadline)

Its scope includes signal and image processing, information and coding theory, databases and information management, distributed algorithms, networks and protocols, wireless communications, collaborative objects and the Internet of Things, machine learning, mobile and social sensing, and embedded systems design. Of special interest are contributions at the confluence of multiple of these areas. Like prior years, IPSN 2019 will continue its co-location with CPS-IoT WEEK, the premier venue for research and development of Cyberphysical Systems, and its strong focus on algorithms, theory, and systems for information processing using networks of embedded, human-in-the-loop, or social sensors, as well as new hardware and software platforms, design methods, architectures, modelling, implementation, evaluation, deployment experiences, and tools for networked embedded sensor systems and the Internet of Things. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Sensor data storage, retrieval, processing - Streaming sensor system tasking and operation - Coding, compression, and information theory - Theoretical foundation and fundamental bounds - Network and system architectures and protocols - IoT gateway platform architecture and services - Outdoor, wide-area sensing systems - Location, time, and other network services - Programming models, languages, and systems - Programming models for IoT ensembles - Modeling, simulation, and measurement tools - Operating systems and runtime environments - Applications in health, wellness & sustainability - Applications in smart cities and urban health - Experiences, challenges, comparisons of platforms - Discovery, coordination, and use of IoT services - Security and privacy in heterogeneous systems - IoT reliability, adaptability, and dependability - Technical assessment of emerging IoT standards - Wearable systems and data processing algorithms - Sensor-enabled drone platforms and algorithms In addition to IPSN's traditional focus, IPSN 2019 will place a particular emphasis on embedded machine learning and computer vision, with a special track centered on these topics. In this case, topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Machine learning and deep learning on sensor data - New hardware and system design to enable machine learning on sensor data - Novel embedded machine learning algorithms - Data related issues, such as methods, tools, and analysis - Computer vision for resource-constrained and mobile platforms ********Submission Guidelines******** Papers must be at most 12 pages, including figures, tables, and references. Papers must be typeset using the 2017 ACM Master article template <https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template>. Detailed instructions are here <https://ipsn.acm.org/2019/HowTo.pdf>. Please start with the sample-sigconf.tex example. Authors must not alter any of the formatting aspects defined in the template, such as layout, margins, or font sizes. In particular, authors must use the default 9pt font size at the submission stage. These formatting guidelines apply regardless of those in the previous years. Failure to follow these guidelines, particularly the use of a different template or a font size, will lead to immediate rejection. Papers may be submitted as single PDF files through this weblink <https://ipsn19.hotcrp.com/>. For submission of posters and demos, see the Posters/Demos page <https://ipsn.acm.org/2019/posters.html>. ********Anonymization and Plagiarism******** Paper submissions are double-blind so authors must anonymize their submissions. References to the authors' own previous work must not be omitted but referred to in the third person so authors can consult existing references. Authors must guarantee that the manuscript has not been previously published or accepted for publication (in any substantially similar form) in any conference, journal, or other archived (e.g., in the ACM Digital Library or the IEEE Xplore) proceedings of an earlier workshop. The authors must also guarantee that no paper that contains significant overlap with their submission is under review for any other conference or journal or archived proceedings of a workshop during the IPSN review period. Only exceptions to these rules are workshops without archived proceedings, technical reports, notes, public websites such as ArXiv, or blogs that are not peer-reviewed. The information on where else the paper appears must, however, be provided on the submission form; the PC chair will make this information available to the reviewers if it becomes necessary to ensure a fair review. This policy will be explicitly conveyed to the reviewers. If you are in doubt, please contact the PC chairs for clarification before submitting your paper. Finally, please also note that the ACM Plagiarism Policy covers a range of ethical issues concerning the misrepresentation of other works or one's own work. Violation of any of these conditions will lead to rejection. ********Response Process******** As in previous years, IPSN will also elicit a review and response process. After the initial review, the program committee may request a short response from selected papers for additional clarifications. The authors will get a short time window of roughly 24 hours to respond. Participation in the response process is not mandatory. ****Joint statement from IPSN and IoTDI**** The two conferences are collaborating to create new synergies, also exploiting their CPSWEEK bi-annual co-location. Prospective authors are thus strongly encouraged to consider these guidelines: - Contributions of embedded nature and applying to network segments from the IoT gateway to field devices should be submitted to IPSN. Examples include localization, low-power wireless networking, and embedded data processing. - Contributions with an end-to-end perspective or applying to network segments from the IoT gateway to the cloud should be submitted to IoTDI. Examples include cloud data processing, edge computing, and systems covering multiple network segments. The TPC chairs of both conferences may agree to move a submitted paper from one to the other if they see a better fit, subject to the authors’ consent. The final decision about where to submit, and therefore what program committee will review the work, ultimately rests with the authors. ********Key Dates******** Paper Abstract Registration: October 10th, 2018 11:59pm AoE (UTC-12) Paper Submission Deadline: (Firm*): October, 17th 2018 11:59pm AoE (UTC-12) Authors’ rebuttal period December 17th - 19th, 2018 Acceptance Notification: January 16th, 2019 Camera-Ready Deadline: TBD ********Organizers******** General Chair: Rasit Eskicioglu (University of Manitoba) Technical Committee Chairs: Luca Mottola (Politecnico di Milan and RISE SICS) Bodhi Priyantha (Microsoft Research)

Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are physical and engineered systems whose operations are monitored, coordinated, controlled, and integrated by computing and communication. Broad CPS deployment is transforming how we interact with the physical world as profoundly as the world wide web transformed how we interact with one another, and further harnessing their capabilities holds the possibility of enormous societal and economic impact. ACM/IEEE ICCPS is the premier single-track conference for reporting advances in all CPS aspects, including theory, tools, applications, systems, test-beds and field deployments. The conferences focuses on the core science to develop fundamental principles that underpin the integration of cyber and physical elements, as well as on the development of technologies, tools, architectures and infrastructure for building CPS systems, highlighting the design, implementation, and investigation of CPS applications. Application domains include (but are not limited to): transportation, energy, water, agriculture, medical and assistive technology, sensor and social networks, robotics, smart cities, ecology, and supply-chains. Among the relevant research areas are security, control, optimization, machine learning, game theory, mechanism design, mobile and cloud computing, model-based design, verification, data mining / analytics, signal processing, and human-in-the-loop shared or supervisory control. All submissions must be in English. Only original papers that are not submitted or published in other conferences or journals will be considered. Manuscripts should have a main body with no more than 10 pages. Up to 2 additional pages of appendices may follow the main body of the paper, within the same submitted .pdf file.

However, at the same time as these technological opportunities grow so does the threat surface for potential adversaries targeting at various, interconnected ICT systems and consequently at ICT-dependent critical systems, such as SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Systems) systems. At this point, attackers could take advantage from the incorporation of the paradigm to exploit new security gaps, probably caused by unforeseen interoperability and adaptability problems. Indeed, the deployment of Internet-enabled embedded devices that are distributed over major critical domains, may create indirect and non-obvious inter-connections with the underlying Critical Infrastructures (CIs). Examples of such inter-connected systems may include traffic monitoring and control systems communicating with smart vehicles, energy related systems communicating with smart homes and smart meters, monitoring systems connected with autonomous sensors in nuclear plants, power grids and body area networks. There is a need to further explore the security issues related to IoT technologies to assure the resilience of CIs against advanced IoT-based attacks. The goal of this special issue is therefore to address the diverse security challenges and related to IoT-enabled CIs (IoT-CIs) and their resilience to advanced threats.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] ACM/IEEE IPSN 2019: Call for Papers Datum: Sun, 16 Sep 2018 12:40:28 -0400 Von: Shijia Pan <shijiapan(a)CMU.EDU> Antwort an: Shijia Pan <shijiapan(a)CMU.EDU> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG The 18th ACM/IEEE The International Conference on Information Processing in Sensor Networks (IPSN) =================================================================== April 16-18, 2019, Montreal, Canada IPSN'19 is part of CPS-IoT Week 2019, co-located with HSCC, ICCPS, CPS-IoT, and RTAS. http://ipsn.acm.org/2019 =================================================================== The International Conference on Information Processing in Sensor Networks (IPSN) is a leading annual forum on research in networked sensing and control, broadly defined. IPSN brings together researchers from academia, industry, and government to present and discuss recent advances in both theoretical and experimental research. Its scope includes signal and image processing, information and coding theory, databases and information management, distributed algorithms, networks and protocols, wireless communications, collaborative objects and the Internet of Things, machine learning, mobile and social sensing, and embedded systems design. Of special interest are contributions at the confluence of multiple of these areas. Like prior years, IPSN 2019 will continue its co-location with CPS-IoT WEEK, the premier venue for research and development of Cyberphysical Systems, and its strong focus on algorithms, theory, and systems for information processing using networks of embedded, human-in-the-loop, or social sensors, as well as new hardware and software platforms, design methods, architectures, modelling, implementation, evaluation, deployment experiences, and tools for networked embedded sensor systems and the Internet of Things. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Sensor data storage, retrieval, processing - Streaming sensor system tasking and operation - Coding, compression, and information theory - Theoretical foundation and fundamental bounds - Network and system architectures and protocols - IoT gateway platform architecture and services - Outdoor, wide-area sensing systems - Location, time, and other network services - Programming models, languages, and systems - Programming models for IoT ensembles - Modeling, simulation, and measurement tools - Operating systems and runtime environments - Applications in health, wellness & sustainability - Applications in smart cities and urban health - Experiences, challenges, comparisons of platforms - Discovery, coordination, and use of IoT services - Security and privacy in heterogeneous systems - IoT reliability, adaptability, and dependability - Technical assessment of emerging IoT standards - Wearable systems and data processing algorithms - Sensor-enabled drone platforms and algorithms In addition to IPSN's traditional focus, IPSN 2019 will place a particular emphasis on embedded machine learning and computer vision, with a special track centered on these topics. In this case, topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Machine learning and deep learning on sensor data - New hardware and system design to enable machine learning on sensor data - Novel embedded machine learning algorithms - Data related issues, such as methods, tools, and analysis - Computer vision for resource-constrained and mobile platforms ********Submission Guidelines******** Submission guidelines will be available soon. ********Response Process******** As in previous years, IPSN will also elicit a review and response process. After the initial review, the program committee may request a short response from selected papers for additional clarifications. The authors will get a short time window of roughly 24 hours to respond. Participation in the response process is not mandatory. ****Joint statement from IPSN and IoTDI**** The two conferences are collaborating to create new synergies, also exploiting their CPSWEEK bi-annual co-location. Prospective authors are thus strongly encouraged to consider these guidelines: - Contributions of embedded nature and applying to network segments from the IoT gateway to field devices should be submitted to IPSN. Examples include localization, low-power wireless networking, and embedded data processing. - Contributions with an end-to-end perspective or applying to network segments from the IoT gateway to the cloud should be submitted to IoTDI. Examples include cloud data processing, edge computing, and systems covering multiple network segments. The TPC chairs of both conferences may agree to move a submitted paper from one to the other if they see a better fit, subject to the authors’ consent. The final decision about where to submit, and therefore what program committee will review the work, ultimately rests with the authors. ********Key Dates******** Paper Abstract Registration: October 10th, 2018 11:59pm AoE (UTC-12) Paper Submission Deadline: (Firm*): October, 17th 2018 11:59pm AoE (UTC-12) Authors’ rebuttal period December 17th - 19th, 2018 Acceptance Notification: January 16th, 2019 Camera-Ready Deadline: TBD ********Organizers******** General Chair: Rasit Eskicioglu (University of Manitoba) Technical Committee Chairs: Luca Mottola (Politecnico di Milan and RISE SICS) Bodhi Priyantha (Microsoft Research) ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
