Please consider submitting your work to the IoT and Sensor Networks Symposium. Best Regards, ---- Rodolfo Coutinho IoT and Sensor Networks Symposium SYMPOSIUM CHAIRS AND CO-CHAIRS • Lin Cai, Illinois Insitute of Technology, USA, lincai(a)iit.edu <mailto:lincai@iit.edu> • Rodolfo W. L. Coutinho, Concordia University, Canada, coutinho(a)ece.concordia.ca <mailto:coutinho@ece.concordia.ca> • Gang Yang, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, China, yanggang(a)uestc.edu.cn <mailto:yanggang@uestc.edu.cn> • Noura Aljeri, Gulf University for Science and Technology, Kuwait, aljeri.n(a)gust.edu.kw <mailto:aljeri.n@gust.edu.kw> SCOPE AND MOTIVATION The Internet of Things (IoT) has emerged as a promising technology to revolu�onize the way we live and interact with the surrounding environment. IoT produces and communicates massive amounts of data that needs to be filtered, analyzed, and processed. In industrial environments (i.e., Industry 4.0 and 5.0) as well as in smart ci�es, communica�on between connected devices requires high reliability, low latency, and suﬃcient scalability. Several technologies such as BLE, Zigbee, Wireless HART, IEEE Std 802.15.4 TSCH, 6TiSCH, LPWAN (LoRa, Sigfox, NB-IoT, LTE-M etc.), and RAW have been proposed to tackle these communica�on requirements. The 5G network provides not only increased data rates but also ultra-low data latency communica�on for cri�cal IoT applica�ons that require extreme reliability. 5G enables Machine Type Communica�on (MTC), which is used by mobile network operators, equipment vendors, MTC specialist companies, and research bodies. The high-traﬃc demand, low-latency, and determinis�c delivery requirements stemming from IoT and machine-to-machine (M2M) communica�ons can be met only with radical changes to current communica�on and networking architectures. Recently, Fog and Edge compu�ng has been proposed to mi�gate the heavy burden on the network due to the centralized processing and storing of the massive IoT data. Fog/Edge-enabled IoT architectures ensure closer processing in proximity to the things, which results in small, determinis�c latency that enables real-�me applica�ons and enforced security. TOPICS OF INTEREST The IoT and Sensor Networks Symposium at IEEE Globecom 2024 aims at a forum that brings together scien�sts, researchers, and leaders in their domain to present their cu�ng-edge innova�ons in all aspects of this field. The IoT and Sensor Networks Symposium seeks original contribu�ons and unpublished pertaining to trends, issues, and challenges of the following topical areas, plus others that are not explicitly listed but are closely related: • Blockchain technology for IoTs • Federated learning for IoT networks • B5G networks and IoT • Passive/Ambient IoT technologies for B5G/6G • IoT security, trust, and trustworthy • Secure and privacy-preserving IoT communica�ons • IoT and personal data protec�on • Ar�ficial intelligence and IoT • IoT large scale pilots and portability • IoT interoperability and mul�-pla�orm integra�on • SDN, NFV and IoT • Intelligent sensor and actuator networks • Emerging IoT protocols and standards • Ultra-low power IoT technologies and embedded systems architectures • Wearables, body sensor networks, smart portable edge devices • Design space explora�on techniques for IoT devices and systems • Heterogeneous networks, Web of things, Web of everything • Named data networking for IoT • Internet of nano things • Internet of Underwater Things • IoT data management, mining and analy�cs • Distributed IoT data storage and management • Rou�ng and control protocols for IoT and sensor networks • Resource management, resource alloca�on for IoT and sensor networks • Mobility, localiza�on and context-adap�ve IoT • Medium Access Control for IoT and sensor networks • Mobility, Localiza�on and Management Aspects for IoT and sensor networks • Iden�ty management and object recogni�on for IoT and sensor networks • Localiza�on technologies for IoT and sensor networks • Edge compu�ng, fog compu�ng and IoT • Fog/Edge caching techniques for IoT • Machine to machine (M2M)/devices-to-devices communica�ons and IoT • Industrial IoT and factory of things and IoTs • Emerging technologies for the industrial IoT • Applica�on of Fog/Edge compu�ng to IoT: architectures and implementa�ons • Autonomic compu�ng for IoTs • Connected car, automo�ve, intelligent transport for IoT and sensor networks • Coopera�ve compu�ng for IoTs • Coopera�ve IoT and sensor systems • Design principles and best prac�ces for IoT applica�on development • Dynamic scheduling, power control, interference management, and QoS for IoT and sensor networks • Standards based IoT large scale pilots/demonstrators • Interoperability methodologies for heterogeneous IoT • IoT big data management and predic�ve analysis • IoT for smart manufacturing (industry 5.0) and smart spaces • IoT standards pla�orms interworking • Horizontal applica�on development for IoT • IoT networks crowdsensing IMPORTANT DATES Deadline for paper submission: 16 April 2024 (extended) Date for notification: 1 August 2024 Deadline for final paper submission: 1 September 2024 SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS All papers for technical symposia should be submitted via EDAS through the following link: https://edas.info/N31420 <https://edas.info/N31420> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the itc list, click the following link: https://comsoc-listserv.ieee.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=itc&A=1

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Lorenzo Palazzetti <000002891733877c-dmarc-request(a)COMSOC-LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG> Gesendet: 12. April 2024 14:56:27 MESZ An: itc(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [InternetTC] [CFP] Sensing and Data Platforms: what is ahead of us (Special Session 11), IEEE MetroAgriFor Workshop [CFP] Sensing and Data Platforms: what is ahead of us (Special Session 11), IEEE MetroAgriFor Workshop [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] Dear Researchers/Authors, You are invited to submit your high-quality research findings to the Special Session 11: "Sensing and Data Platforms: what is ahead of us" of the 2024 IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for Agriculture and Forestry (MetroAgriFor). October 29-31, 2024 - Padua, Italy Website: https://www.metroagrifor.org/special-session-11 Aims and Scope The role of sensing, including in-situ, proximity and remote, is increasingly crucial for agriculture and forestry. Huge investments have been made in this field - consider for instance satellite constellations for remote sensing, the thriving UAV sector, and the dawning sector of terrestrial rovers - and benefits are evident in several application areas. The other side of the coin is represented by the data platforms used to collect, store, and process the huge amount of data coming from sensing platforms. Such data platforms should, among others, provide interoperable data through open interfaces (APIs) to different classes of users, but such functionality has not yet reached its full potential. In Europe, there have been several recent initiatives focused on enhancing data sharing and processing. One key effort is the European Strategy for Data, which introduces the concept of a Common European Data Space and includes actions to deploy Agriculture and Green Deal sectorial data spaces. Additionally, the Horizon Europe framework is providing funding for the establishment of European Partnerships that bring together the European Commission with private and/or public partners to address pressing challenges through collaborative research and innovation projects. One such partnership, the European Partnership for Agriculture of Data, aims to support sustainable agriculture in the EU and improve policy monitoring and implementation by leveraging digital and data technologies for environmental observation. The goal of this special session is to investigate the potential and the challenges of both sensing and data platforms, looking to future developments, and also considering economic and legal aspects to be carefully taken into consideration. Contributions are expected to contribute to, but are not limited to, the following topics: - sensing systems, both local and remote, and recent developments; - state of the art of data platforms linked to sensing systems, standards, interoperability enablers, and sustainability of their business model; - GEOSS Data Sharing and Management Principles, FAIR principles, and other interoperable solutions with the potential to further push the use of sensing data; - economic and legal aspects that can fuel or limit the use of such systems. Important dates - Extended Abstract Submission: June 10, 2024 - Extended Abstract Notification: September 1, 2024 - Final Paper Submission: September 20, 2024 Submission Instruction Authors should prepare an Extended Abstract (4-5 pages) that clearly indicates the originality of the contribution and the relevance of the work. The Extended Abstract should include the title of the paper, names and affiliations of the authors, an abstract, keywords, an introduction describing the nature of the problem and the state of the art in the field of interest, a description of the contribution, the results achieved and their applicability, conclusions, and references. When the review process has been completed, authors receive a notification of either acceptance or rejection of the submission. If the paper has been accepted, the authors can prepare a final paper that incorporates the reviewers' suggestions. The format for the final paper is identical to the format for the extended abstract except for the number of pages: the full paper has a required minimum length of five (5) pages and a maximum of six (6) pages.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: EWSN 2024 Sustainability Competition - Call for Competitors Datum: Mon, 08 Apr 2024 03:57:29 -0700 Von: Carlo Alberto Boano <cboano(a)tugraz.at> An: wolf(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EWSN 2024 Sustainability Competition (co-located with the EWSN conference – Abu Dhabi, UAE – December 10-13, 2024) https://ewsn24.tii.ae/competition.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *** CALL FOR COMPETITORS *** (to display it in a browser or as PDF, visit https://tinyurl.com/mrx8exd3) The 21st International Conference on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks (EWSN) will host a sustainability competition that aims to quantitatively benchmark the performance of intermittently-powered embedded systems against the same baseline. The competition will take place remotely between June and October 2024 (there will also be an informal testing phase in April-May), and the winners will be announced and awarded at EWSN in Abu Dhabi in December 2024. Competition entries from both academia and industry are encouraged. Contestants will be tasked to develop a solution that maximizes the number of tasks executed while a battery-free system based on the MSP430FR5994 device is powered by an intermittent source of energy. The three top teams will receive generous cash awards sponsored by the Technology Innovation Institute: - First place: 6.000 EUR - Second place: 3.000 EUR - Third place: 1.500 EUR *** WHY THIS COMPETITION? *** Research on battery-free systems has been around for more than a decade, with plenty of results available on software frameworks, hardware platforms, and applications (please refer to 'The Internet of Batteryless Things', CACM, March 2024, https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3624718, for a recent overview of battery-free technologies). However, so far, there has been no large-scale evaluation of battery-free systems in a common sensing ecosystem. Therefore, together with you, we want to evaluate different approaches to designing efficient intermittently-powered sensing systems against the same baseline. EWSN 2024 will be the first place where such an evaluation will take place! *** COMPETITION FORMAT *** In order to compete, contestants must submit a one-page abstract listing all team members as well as their affiliations, and describing briefly the tentative approach/solution that will be followed to tackle the challenge. Selected teams will be invited to participate in the competition, and at least one member of each participating team must register and attend the event in person in Abu Dhabi (December 10–13, 2024). The competition encompasses the following stages, accompanied by a testing phase, as detailed next. - April 15 – May 31, 2024 (Informal testing phase). The E-Cube testbed facility on which the contestants' code will be run and evaluated is going to be available for testing to everyone interested in participating in the event. The testbed is hosted by TU Graz and can be accessed at https://iti-ecube.tugraz.at/, where also detailed tutorials about its use as well as the structure of the expected firmware will be available and updated continuously. We strongly recommend prospective participants to get familiar with the testbed facility early on and to get in touch with us! - June 1, 2024 (Competition entry deadline). After the informal testing phase, the teams that plan to participate in the event are expected to send a one-page abstract (listing all team members as well as their affiliations and describing briefly the tentative approach/solution that will be followed to tackle the challenge) via e-mail to all competition organizers listed below. Please use as subject: 'EWSN 2024 Sustainability Competition: Submission'. - June 8, 2024 (Notification of accepted teams). Selected teams will be notified and invited to participate in the competition. At least one member of each participating team is expected to register and attend the event in person in Abu Dhabi (December 10-13, 2024). Travel and lodging expenses are the responsibility of each team, but please note that several grants for female researchers and students will be available to cover their accommodation and/or conference registration costs (see https://ewsn24.tii.ae/grants.html). - June 15 – October 15, 2024 (Remote competition). During this phase, each team will develop and run its solutions on the E-Cube testbed facility, which will be accessible to all participating team members throughout the competition. Please note that each team will be assigned a unique ID (e.g., 'Team-04') in E-Cube to ensure the anonymity of results, as the performance of the various teams will be visible on a public leaderboard (knowledge of each other's performance is one of the salient aspects of the competition). Participants and their affiliations will be published on the competition webpage, but the mapping to team IDs will not be disclosed: only the identity of the top-performing teams will be revealed at EWSN 2024. Hence, we expect that contestants will abstain from publicly announcing their team ID via social media or other means. - October 15, 2024 (Submission of final firmware and competition abstract). All teams must submit their final firmware (only a .hex file is needed, no source code needs to be delivered) for evaluation, together with a two-page abstract summarizing their contribution to the competition. The competition abstracts will follow the same requirements as poster and demo abstracts and should be submitted via HotCRP together with the final firmware (a link will be provided at a later stage). Accepted competition abstracts will be part of the EWSN conference proceedings and appear in the ACM digital library unless teams explicitly mark their submission as confidential. - October 16 – December 9, 2024 (Evaluation of the final firmware). During this phase, all submitted firmware will be run on E-Cube by the competition organizers, using the same set of energy-availability traces that were provided throughout the remote competition phase, as well as new traces which were previously not available. Each team will score points based on the number of challenges solved via a proof-of-work algorithm (see competition objectives and evaluation procedure section below). - December 10–13, 2024 (EWSN 2024 Conference in Abu Dhabi). During the EWSN conference, all competing teams must present their solution at a dedicated poster session, during which they will have the possibility to engage in lively discussions with the other conference attendees. The winners of the competition will be announced and awarded during a plenary session and will be expected to present their solution as a 'lightning talk'. Details about the lightning talks and poster formats will be provided at a later stage. *** COMPETITION OBJECTIVES & EVALUATION PROCEDURE *** The winning team will be the one maximizing the number of challenges solved over a predefined time window, during which the competition organizers will emulate varying degrees of available energy. To solve a challenge, contestants have to utilize hashcash, a SHA1-based proof-of-work algorithm for which a reference implementation is provided by the organizers. For example, using a challenge ‘EWSN2024‘ and a difficulty of 16-bit, we first create a starting string with a well-known format, e.g., 1:16:240403:EWSN2024::WXhnFeDleN:1. The segments of the string separated by a colon are: version (always 1), bits (16 as per difficulty), date (6 digits, fixed for the competition), resource (the challenge word given), extension (empty), random (a user-chosen random string), and a counter. We now need to check if this string’s SHA1 hash has 16 (as per the chosen difficulty) leading zeros (most significant bits). Our string (with the counter of 1) has a SHA1 hash of 20db26cb6b1e17a2079fc3daf05fd01a7ed08cb5, which only has two leading zeros. Thus, we increment the counter to 2 and hash the updated string and keep incrementing the counter until we find a string that has a hash with the required leading zeros. In this example, after 96620 attempts, the string with counter 96620 1:16:240403:EWSN2024::WXhnFeDleN:96620 has a hash of 0000babe195c81d00ecec4cd8f0dc1572ebd46d4 with 16 leading zeros (0x0000) as required. The string 1:16:240403:EWSN2024::WXhnFeDleN:96620 is hence the solution to the challenge. At the start of an experiment, an external I2C FRAM memory will contain a list of challenges similar to the above example, to which contestants need to supply a solution despite the intermittent energy supply. At the end of an experiment, the computed solutions are automatically collected by E-Cube, the number of correct solutions is tallied against any incorrect solutions, and points awarded accordingly. Additional technical details, a reference solution, as well as the evaluation procedure will be posted on the competition’s website. *** ELIGIBILITY *** Both academia and industry submissions are encouraged. Please note that there is no limit to the number of participating teams from a single organization and the number of members in each team. Teams can be diverse in terms of age, experience, gender, and academic/industrial background. There is also no requirement on the originality of the competing solutions: the demonstration of good use of well-known or previously-published intermittent-computing/battery-free solutions is strongly encouraged. No source code needs to be submitted as part of this competition (the submission of a .hex file is sufficient), but we encourage contestants to do so, if possible, in the spirit of open and collaborative research. There is also no restriction on the operating system, or codebase used to program the devices. *** DISCLAIMER *** The EWSN 2024 sustainability competition will take place if at least six teams respond to this preliminary call. *** IMPORTANT DATES *** - Informal testing phase: April 15 – May 31, 2024 - Competition entry deadline: June 1, 2024 (11:59 PM AoE) - Notification of accepted teams: June 8, 2024 - Remote competition: June 15 – October 15, 2024 - Submission of final firmware and competition abstract: October 15, 2024 (11:59 PM AoE) - EWSN 2024 conference: December 10–13, 2024 -- Poster presentations from each competing team: December 11, 2024 -- Plenary session with award ceremony and lightning talks: December 12, 2024 *** COMPETITION ORGANIZERS *** - Nivedita Arora, Northwestern University, USA - Przemysław Pawełczak, TU Delft, The Netherlands - Markus Schuß, TU Graz, Austria ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of the call -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

September 2-5, 2024 [Apologies if you got multiple copies of this invitation] The 9th International Conference on Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC 2024 ) https://emergingtechnet.org/FMEC2024/index.php Malmö, Sweden. September 2-5, 2024 Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Sweden Section *FMEC 2024 CFP:* Cloud computing provides a large range of services and virtually unlimited available resources for users. New applications, such as virtual reality and smart building control, have emerged due to the large number of resources and services brought by cloud computing. However, the delay-sensitive applications face the problem of large latency, especially when several smart devices and objects are getting involved in human’s life such as the case of smart cities or Internet of Things. Therefore, cloud computing is unable to meet the requirements of low latency, location awareness, and mobility support. To solve this problem, researchers have introduced a trusted and dependable solution through the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC) to put the services and resources of the cloud closer to users, which facilitates the leveraging of available services and resources in the edge networks. By this, we are moving from the core (cloud data centers) to the edge of the network closer to the users. FMEC dependability is based on providing user centric service. The purpose of Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing is to run the heavy real-time applications at the network edge directly using the billions of connected mobile devices. Several features enable the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing to be a perfect paradigm to the aforementioned purpose, which are the dense geographical deployment of servers, supporting mobility and the closeness to users. As in every new technology, some challenges face the vision of the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing, which are the administrative policies and security concerns (i.e. secure data storage, secure computation, network security, data privacy, usage privacy, location privacy, etc).

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: 1st CFP: Special track on BLOCKCHAIN AND DECENTRALIZED TECHNOLOGIES FOR SOCIAL GOOD (BANDIT) @ ACM GoodIT 2024 Datum: Tue, 2 Apr 2024 11:41:51 +0200 Von: Michienzi Andrea <andrea.michienzi(a)DI.UNIPI.IT> Antwort an: Mailing List der GI FG 3.3.1 "Kommunikation und Verteilte Systeme" <KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE> Organisation: Università di Pisa - Department of Computer Science An: KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE CFP: Special track on BLOCKCHAIN AND DECENTRALIZED TECHNOLOGIES FOR SOCIAL GOOD (BANDIT) @ ACM GoodIT 2024 https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/bandit2024/home 4-6 September 2024, Bremen, Germany Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library. Special issues associated with the conference are being organized. Selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version to those journals. ## MOTIVATION AND RATIONALE Social good has a big impact on society. Indeed, the term “social good” refers to something which benefits the general public, and at the same time, it is something which reflects and respects their wishes, being ‘from’ the people. The social good can be envisioned as global citizens uniting to unlock the potential of individuals through collaboration to create a positive societal impact. Much interest has been produced in the last years, and new proposals and technologies have been considered. Among them, Blockchain, distributed ledger technologies, and decentralized technologies in general, such as IPFS, have been considered to improve all the aspects of the social good. Blockchain and decentralized technologies have had a big impact on the world. In particular, Blockchain technology has been applied to several fields, such as e-health, IoT, media, etc. The big question around the definition of this track is: “How does the blockchain have a big impact on the social good? And how can decentralization improve the ICT industries?”. The track manages the possible application of decentralized technologies in research fields included in the global scope of the social good. These address sectors such as agriculture, supply chain traceability, energy, health, property rights and digital identities, ranging from a global to a local scope. More recently in the realm of civic participation, civil society initiatives and social economies, blockchains are being tested to implement collaborative models: social finance and local currency schemes, peer-to-peer production and exchanges, decentralized organizations management and decision-making, purpose-driven tokens that incentivize pro-social behaviors, etc. Examples of applications involving considerable experimentation and innovation are complementary and community currency systems. These systems aim to support humanitarian aid initiatives, self-organizing local community development and basic income projects. These involve novel tokenization mechanisms based on smart contracts that necessitate further investigation and discussion. While the revolutionary potential of blockchains has been largely tested (in the financial domain in particular), its possible applications in social domains and to address sustainability challenges have been explored far less. This special track aims to explore and debate the main concepts and implications of blockchain technology, how it can be a driver of innovation and its positive effects on our societies, industry, legal systems and economic/financial systems. Also, the risks and uncertainties that blockchain arrows are welcome to be debated in this section, as regards: conflicts arising from the introduction, in mutable social interactions, of logics based on tokenization, automation, and trustlessness; energy consumption and environmental impacts; technical accessibility and digital skill divides. This special track will provide both academic and industry researchers with a forum to discuss the impact, future, and limitations of blockchain technology regarding its effect across specific industries, economics, finance, law, civil society initiatives, social economies, the not-for-profit sector, etc. ## TOPICS * Blockchain and decentralized architectures and algorithms * Protocols for management and access using blockchain * Consensus and mining algorithms suited for Social Good * NFT and Web3 for Social Good * Security and privacy in Blockchains and decentralized platforms * Blockchain application in civic participation initiatives in local communities * Blockchain application in social and collaborative economies in local communities * Blockchain-based local currencies for financial inclusion * Tokenomics and collaborative incentives models for local communities * Decentralized Autonomous Organizations for smart communities * Voting and opinion formation systems * Blockchain applications for environmental sustainability * Blockchain applications for public administration * Blockchain applications in IoT * Blockchain applications in healthcare * Blockchain applications in business * Blockchain applications in supply-chain management and certification * Blockchain applications in the industry * Blockchain applications in mobile communications and wireless networks * Decentralized Technology for Social Media * Blockchain in Social Networking * AI for blockchain ## IMPORTANT DATES * Papers submission: 17th May 2024 * Notification of acceptance: 8th July 2024 * Camera-ready paper due: 19th July 2024

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [InternetTC] [CFP] Sensing and Data Platforms: what is ahead of us (Special Session 11), IEEE MetroAgriFor Workshop Datum: Fri, 29 Mar 2024 10:24:05 +0000 Von: Lorenzo Palazzetti <000002891733877c-dmarc-request(a)COMSOC-LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG> An: itc(a)COMSOC.ORG [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] Dear Researchers/Authors, You are invited to submit your high-quality research findings to the Special Session 11: "Sensing and Data Platforms: what is ahead of us" of the 2024 IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for Agriculture and Forestry (MetroAgriFor). October 29-31, 2024 - Padua, Italy Website: https://www.metroagrifor.org/special-session-11 Aims and Scope The role of sensing, including in-situ, proximity and remote, is increasingly crucial for agriculture and forestry. Huge investments have been made in this field - consider for instance satellite constellations for remote sensing, the thriving UAV sector, and the dawning sector of terrestrial rovers - and benefits are evident in several application areas. The other side of the coin is represented by the data platforms used to collect, store, and process the huge amount of data coming from sensing platforms. Such data platforms should, among others, provide interoperable data through open interfaces (APIs) to different classes of users, but such functionality has not yet reached its full potential. In Europe, there have been several recent initiatives focused on enhancing data sharing and processing. One key effort is the European Strategy for Data, which introduces the concept of a Common European Data Space and includes actions to deploy Agriculture and Green Deal sectorial data spaces. Additionally, the Horizon Europe framework is providing funding for the establishment of European Partnerships that bring together the European Commission with private and/or public partners to address pressing challenges through collaborative research and innovation projects. One such partnership, the European Partnership for Agriculture of Data, aims to support sustainable agriculture in the EU and improve policy monitoring and implementation by leveraging digital and data technologies for environmental observation. The goal of this special session is to investigate the potential and the challenges of both sensing and data platforms, looking to future developments, and also considering economic and legal aspects to be carefully taken into consideration. Contributions are expected to contribute to, but are not limited to, the following topics: - sensing systems, both local and remote, and recent developments; - state of the art of data platforms linked to sensing systems, standards, interoperability enablers, and sustainability of their business model; - GEOSS Data Sharing and Management Principles, FAIR principles, and other interoperable solutions with the potential to further push the use of sensing data; - economic and legal aspects that can fuel or limit the use of such systems. Important dates - Extended Abstract Submission: June 10, 2024 - Extended Abstract Notification: September 1, 2024 - Final Paper Submission: September 20, 2024 Submission Instruction Authors should prepare an Extended Abstract (4-5 pages) that clearly indicates the originality of the contribution and the relevance of the work. The Extended Abstract should include the title of the paper, names and affiliations of the authors, an abstract, keywords, an introduction describing the nature of the problem and the state of the art in the field of interest, a description of the contribution, the results achieved and their applicability, conclusions, and references. When the review process has been completed, authors receive a notification of either acceptance or rejection of the submission. If the paper has been accepted, the authors can prepare a final paper that incorporates the reviewers' suggestions. The format for the final paper is identical to the format for the extended abstract except for the number of pages: the full paper has a required minimum length of five (5) pages and a maximum of six (6) pages.

Within the context of the conference, we are organizing a special track ''Avoiding an Internet of Trash'', focused on a sustainable Internet of Things. We are witnessing an ever-increasing number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices with predictions of between 50 and 125 billion IoT devices by 2030. There is currently no information about how long these devices will be used. If one goes by the lifetime of smartphones or laptops, this could be in the order of 4 to 6 years. Without any action, this situation could produce a large amount of electronic waste. Many factors contribute to this situation, including issues of planned obsolescence of devices, software maintenance, volatile businesses, poor battery capacity, and unnecessary gadgets. This challenge is further compounded by the fact that there is often limited interoperability between devices and little reuse as well as limited recycling of unused IoT devices. This special track aims at creating a forum for discussion on how to address all these issues. We welcome submissions on a wide range of topics, including but not limited to: - Sustainable powering of IoT devices and energy harvesting; - Sustainable electronics for IoT devices; - Methods and frameworks for reprogramming of IoT devices; - Modular and reconfigurable IoT device architectures; - Interoperability of IoT devices, protocols, and frameworks; - Environmental impact of IoT devices; - Sustainable deployment of IoT applications; - Analysis of the usefulness of IoT devices and applications; - IoT applications for sustainability; - Behavioural and societal aspects in the sustainable use of IoT devices and resources. *** SUBMISSION GUIDELINES *** Papers submitted to this special track must be unpublished original works. Submitted papers must satisfy the same criteria in terms of paper length and formatting requirements as papers submitted to the main conference (more details are provided at https://blogs.uni-bremen.de/goodit2024/submission-of-papers/). Accepted papers must follow the formatting instructions of the main conference. At least one of the authors of all accepted papers must register and present the work at the conference on site; otherwise, the paper will not be published in the proceedings. All accepted and presented papers will be included in the conference proceedings published in the ACM Digital Library. *** IMPORTANT DATES *** - Paper submission deadline: May 17, 2024 - Notification of acceptance: July 8, 2024 - Camera-ready deadline: July 19, 2024 *** ORGANIZERS OF THE SPECIAL TRACK *** - Dirk Pesch (University College Cork, Ireland) - Carlo Alberto Boano (Graz University of Technology, Austria) *** TPC MEMBERS *** - Michael Baddeley (TII, United Arab Emirates) - Anna Förster (University of Bremen, Germany) - Daniela Iacopino (Tyndall National Institute, Ireland) - Oana Iova (INRIA, France) - Ramona Marfievici (Digital Catapult, United Kingdom) - Brendan O’Flynn (Tyndall National Institute, Ireland) - Michael Stead (Lancaster University, United Kingdom) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of the call ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By creating the virtual representation of the elements, dynamics and services of physical systems, including objects and humans, DTs are expected to provide crucial support to the ambitious Sixth-generation (6G) applications, like Extended Reality (XR), autonomous driving and remote healthcare. However, to provide such composite and complex applications, the research community on DTs have to face major research challenges, such as the definition of expressive DT representation models to manage the DTs’ dynamic nature and the design of scalable autonomous search engine among a huge number of DTs, with intensive interactions, heterogeneous communications, and billions of services. Moreover, based on the distinct requirements of the applications, different orchestration and deployment mechanisms can be envisioned. DTs are typically hosted in remote Cloud data centers to provide compute-intensive services but they can also migrate at the network edge to provide ultra-low-latency services and quickly interact with their real counterpart. In this context, it becomes crucial to provide optimal DT service placement in the presence of multiple edge nodes with distinct computation and storage capabilities and investigate caching policies to reuse the available DT services that can be offered to distinct clients. So far, the literature has mainly focused on application-specific solutions for DTs, e.g., in the manufacturing field, but new holistic approaches can be devised in 6G environments. For example, revolutionary networking paradigms, like the Social Internet of Things (SIoT), can foster trustworthy and effective DT service discovery; service-centric communications, implemented by Information-Centric Networking (ICN) architectures, can facilitate the orchestration of DT at the edge and their service reuse. *** Topics of Interest *** DT modelling Edge computing platforms for DT Edge-Cloud DT orchestration Social network solutions for DT Information-Centric Networking (ICN) for DT DT use cases AI/ML for DT design Protocols for intra-twin and inter-twin communications DT service caching DT service discovery mechanisms DT optimal service placement at the Edge DT service reuse policy design DT trustworthiness and security management Testbed designs and implementation of DT-based applications Network simulations of DT-enabled 6G *** Important Information *** Submission Deadline: 5 April 2024 Acceptance Notification: 14 May 2024 Camera-Ready: 1 June 2024 Papers should follow IEEE MeditCom 2024 paper submission guidelines: https://meditcom2023.ieee-meditcom.org/ <https://meditcom2023.ieee-meditcom.org/>.
