-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Submission Extension to October 22, 2013 -IEEE JSAC Smart Grid Communication Series Datum: Mon, 30 Sep 2013 16:49:33 -0400 Von: Nada Golmie <golmie(a)NIST.GOV> Antwort an: Nada Golmie <golmie(a)NIST.GOV> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG SUBMISSION DEADLINE EXTENSION - OCTOBER 22, 2013 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers : IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications- Special series on Smart Grid Communications “Smart Grid” refers to the modernization of electric grid to allow for more efficient generation, transmission, distribution, and usage of energy. This is becoming necessary in order to transition to a more sustainable energy generation and consumption and reduce its adverse effects on the environment. While more advances in areas like renewable energies and network control are necessary, advances in communication technologies, data fusion and mining, as well as scheduling and optimization are also critical in order to achieve this vision. It is anticipated that the same communication technologies that have revolutionized our way of life in the past decades, ranging from sensor networks, mobile Internet, cloud computing, smart phones and many others, will have direct applicability to Smart Grid. Many off-the-shelf and commercial communication technologies may be ready for deployment in the Smart Grid today. Examples include the use of wireless communications to collect and exchange information about electric quality, consumption, pricing, etc. However, allowing greater flexibility in sharing information in a secure and reliable fashion still poses a number of challenges. Furthermore, using off-the-shelves technologies may lead to inefficiencies, especially if energy management specific features are not utilized adequately in the data compression and the collection infrastructure. Questions that remain unanswered in the smart grid context, include, coverage, interference, spectrum sharing, architecture, network! topology, access control and authentication, data representation, data fusion and many more. This series of IEEE JSAC is focused on identifying the numerous communication challenges posed by the various aspects and functionalities of the Smart Grid and exploring research avenues for addressing them. Original contributions that are unpublished and not currently under review by any other journal are solicited in relevant areas of Smart Grid communications including (but not limited) to the following: • Physical and MAC layer protocols for Smart Grid applications • Spectrum sharing, coexistence and interference mitigation in Smart Grid communications • Network control for the power grid • Smart Grid sensors data fusion and mining models • Communications to support demand-response, load and pricing management • Smart Grid cyber-physical network modeling and performance analysis • Measurement data from Smart Grid testbeds and field trials • Architecture and network topology for Smart Grid applications • Cyber and physical vulnerabilities and Smart Grid security Each submission should demonstrate clear applicability to Smart Grid communications. Prospective authors should follow the IEEE J-SAC manuscript format described in the information for authors (http://www.jsac.ucsd.edu/Guidelines/info.html). All papers should be submitted through EDAS (http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=11249) according to the following timetable: Manuscript submission: October 22, 2013 Author notification: February 28, 2014 Final manuscript submission: March 21, 2014 Publication: July 2014 Editorial Team Dr. Nada Golmie, National Institute of Standards and Technology Prof. Lang Tong, Cornell University Prof. Sean Smith, Dartmouth College Prof. Sumit Roy, University of Washington Prof. Jelena Misic, Ryerson University Prof. Alejandro Dominguez-Garcia, University of Illinois Prof. Ram Rajagopal, Stanford University ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Deadline Extension: SI Elsevier Computer Communications & IoT Datum: Wed, 25 Sep 2013 19:42:05 +0200 Von: Matthias Waehlisch <waehlisch(a)IEEE.ORG> Antwort an: Matthias Waehlisch <waehlisch(a)IEEE.ORG> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Deadline Extension: Due to numerous requests, we extended the paper submission deadline until *October 15, 2013*. Call for Papers Special Issue on "Current and Future Architectures, Protocols, and Services for the Internet of Things" will be published in Elsevier Computer Communications Scope The Internet of Things (IoT) started as a research topic more than a decade ago and evolved towards partial deployment in the last few years. It describes the integration of magnitudes of smart devices into the current Internet. Those devices challenge Internet architectures and protocols. They may exhibit very limited resources making the direct application of common approaches nearly impractical. On the other hand, they significantly increase heterogeneity, which complicates the extension of the status quo. The Internet of Things has continuously been discussed. Related compilations of contributions usually miss two important aspects. First, the analysis of IoT approaches that have been deployed or will be available soon in the current Internet. Analyzing those solutions may help to understand relevant aspects of a successful deployment and to identify common pitfalls while IoT approaches have been designed. Second, deployed protocols need a careful revisit. In contrast to well-established Internet protocols and architectures, IoT techniques are fresh and not fully developed on the same level. In addition, new network paradigms emerge, which need to be considered for a sustainable future IoT. In this special issue we are seeking new and unpublished papers in the field of architectures, protocols, and services for the IoT with a special focus on current and future deployment. They should contribute to at least one of the following aspects. (1) Identifying and solving open technical problems. (2) Performing thorough evaluation and comparison of existing proposals or standards. (3) Addressing integrative aspects towards a full-fledged IoT deployment. (4) Enabling new services. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Wireless, wired, and hybrid networks - IETF proposals such as RPL and 6LoWPAN - Privacy and security - Interconnection between IP and sensor networks - Integration of future Internet paradigms such as ICN - Machine to Machine communications in IoT scenarios - Energy efficiency in smart object scenarios - IoT management and interoperability - Participatory and global sensing - Performance measurement and tuning, scalability - Simulation and analytical studies - Testbed, prototype, and practical systems Schedule Submission deadline: October 15, 2013 (extended) Author notification: January 31, 2014 Revised paper due: March 15, 2014 Final author notification: April 15, 2014 Expected publication: Fall 2014 Guest Editors Matthias Wählisch Freie Universität Berlin, Germany waehlisch(a)ieee.org Damla Turgut University of Central Forida, USA turgut(a)eecs.ucf.edu Tom Pfeifer Technical University of Berlin, Germany t.pfeifer(a)computer.org Anura P. Jayasumana Colorado State University, USA Anura.Jayasumana(a)colostate.edu Instructions for submission Manuscripts must not have been previously published nor currently under review by other journals or conferences. If the paper was published in a conference, the submitted manuscript should be a substantial extension of the conference paper. Authors are also required to submit their published conference articles and a summary document explaining the enhancements made in the journal version. Papers must be submitted through the Computer Communications website at http://ees.elsevier.com/comcom, where guidelines for the manuscript preparation can also be found.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE Communications Magazine, User-centric Networking and Services Series Datum: Mon, 23 Sep 2013 22:05:01 +0100 Von: Rute Sofia <rute.sofia(a)ULUSOFONA.PT> Antwort an: Rute Sofia <rute.sofia(a)ULUSOFONA.PT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG /(Apologies for eventual mail duplicates) / URL: http://www.comsoc.org/files/Publications/Magazines/ci/cfp/cfpcommag0914.htm… / */IEEE Communications Magazine, User-centric Networking and Services/* /User-centric networks (UCNs)/ are a recent architectural trend of self-organizing, autonomic networks where the Internet end-user cooperates by sharing network services and resources. UCNs are spontaneous and grassroots deployments of wireless architectures (e.g., ad-hoc or infrastructure), often involving low-cost deployment. Furthermore, users in such environments tend to roam frequently. In such roaming environments, users carry equipment that plays an active role in terms of topology changes (e.g., an LTE phone which is sharing Internet access to other surrounding devices, may become active or inactive without operator control). Common to user-centric environments is a social behaviour that heavily impacts network operation from an end-to-end perspective, and on the different layers of the OSI stack. UCNs empower the end-user as a new Internet stakeholder and not just as a consumer and producer of content. User-centric networking technologies can be applied to a wide range of scenarios, encompassing: i) sharing subscribed broadband Internet access; ii) providing support for better Internet connectivity; iii) allowing the use of communication services even in the absence of reliable Internet access; iv) assisting networking services based on user involvement for the detection and repair of communication problems. The new role of an empowered end-user is disruptive in several aspects, namely: i) in the end-to-end Internet paradigm, end-user devices will actively participate as a network element in addition to being an endpoint host; ii) network boundaries of trust will need to be extended in a way that should mimic social behavior; and iii) end-user devices should be capable of handling intermittent Internet connectivity as well as fast and transparent roaming between micro-operators. There is also the need to further understand wholesale models incorporating UCNs, as well as to understand the impact of UCNs in the context of standardization. This special issue is accepting papers on the topics including, but not limited to, the following: * To promote unprecedented approaches and techniques in participatory and opportunistic data collection, communication, analysis, and visualization; * To identify open issues which remain a challenge towards the convergence of information and communication technologies, privacy protection methods, social and psychological theories in MCS; * To exploit novel application areas and demonstrate the benefits of MCS in contrast with more traditional static sensing approaches. *Topics may include (but are not limited to):* * Community detection and social interaction * Dynamic trust management models * Cooperation incentive models * Distributed mobility management * Human behavior and mobility prediction * Virtual currency architectures and models * Resource management in spontaneous environments * Cooperative networking * Market impact and analysis of UCN integration * Standardization aspects in regards to UCN topics such as user liability, authentication, and highly efficient WLANs.

To succeed, effort is envisioned to come from multiple dimensions including 1) spectrum efficiency enhancement, 2) small cell deployment and 3) novel network architectures. First, advanced multiple antenna technology such as massive multiple-input-multiple output (MIMO), virtual MIMO, full-dimensional MIMO and 3-D beamforming are promising techniques to enhance per-user spectrum efficiency and system capacity. Second, by deploying dense small cells within the local-area range and bringing the network closer to end-users, small cell and heterogeneous networks (HetNets) can potentially improve spectrum resource reuse, spatial resource reuse and communication coverage, thus allowing future mobile networks to achieve higher data rates, while retaining the seamless connectivity and mobility of current mobile network deployments. In addition, from network side, new and novel network architectures such as soft-defined network, cloud-RAN (radio access network) and cognitive radio networks as well as the enabling technologies including virtualization in wireless networks, optical wireless integration, and distributed antenna systems can further improve network efficiency and user experience. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researches which focus on emerging wireless technologies that improve spectrum efficiency, energy efficiency and network efficiency for future mobile networks. TOPICS We are seeking papers that present original and unpublished contributions addressing various emerging wireless technologies for future mobile networks. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: • Massive MIMO, virtual MIMO, 3-D MIMO/beamforming technologies • Self-organization, -configuration and -optimization for small cell networks • Interference coordination and radio resource management in small cell and HetNets • Load-balancing and traffic offloading schemes in small cell and HetNets • Handover and mobility study in small cell and HetNets • Virtualization in wireless networks • Spectrum sharing and network efficiency for cognitive radio networks • Spectrum efficiency, network efficiency and energy efficiency in cloud-RAN • Distribute antenna system and optical wireless integration Important Dates Submission deadline: October 7, 2013 Notification of acceptance: October 21, 2013 Camera-ready paper due: October 31, 2013 Workshop date: December 3, 2013 Submission instructions Paper submission will be handled electronically (see the instructions on the website).

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: CFP Herbststreffen der FGBS Neue Deadline 22.9.2013 Datum: Wed, 18 Sep 2013 10:59:33 +0200 (CEST) Von: gi-mitglieder-info(a)gi-ev.de An: wolf(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de *FG Betriebssysteme* DEADLINEVERLÄNGERUNG Herbsttreffen der GI/ITG-Fachgruppe Betriebssysteme 7.-8. November 2013 in Berlin unter dem Motto: "Betriebssysteme für zukünftige Rechnerarchitekturen" Vor etwa zehn Jahren begann ein Umbruch im Design von Prozessoren, der im Erreichen der vertretbaren Wärmeabgabe und des Stromverbrauchs begründet war. Dies führte zu einer Diversifizierung der Architekturen, wobei eine Vielzahl von Lösungen entwickelt und zum Teil wiederentdeckt wurde. Diese Lösungen wurden zuerst in Server- und Desktopsystemen eingesetzt, haben mittlerweile aber auch die mobilen Systeme erreicht. Dieser Umbruch sowie verkürzte Hardware-Entwicklungszyklen stellen die Entwickler von Systemsoftware vor neue Herausforderungen, da nur durch geeignete Unterstützung der Systemsoftware die Ressourcen eines Rechners effizient genutzt werden können. Entsprechend widmet sich das Treffen dem Motto "Betriebssysteme für zukünftige Rechnerarchitekturen" und somit unter anderem folgenden Themen: * Multicore/Manycore Architekturen * Asymmetrische/Heterogene Multicore Architekturen * Energiebewusstes Ressourcenmanagement * Modulares/erweiterbares Design Unser diesjähriges Herbsttreffen wird durch die Fachgruppe Kommunikations- und Betriebssysteme sowie die Gastprofessur für Betriebssysteme und Eingebettete Systeme der TU Berlin ausgerichtet. Bitte senden Sie einen Abstract (1-2 Seiten, deutsch oder englisch) Ihres Beitrags direkt an Jan Richling (jan.richling(a)tu-berlin.de <mailto:jan.richling@tu-berlin.de>). Abgabefrist ist der 22.09. 2013 (NEUE DEADLINE!) Die Anmeldung für das Herbsttreffen wird in Kürze über www.betriebsysteme.org <http://www.betriebsysteme.org> möglich sein. Dort werden Sie dann auch die Informationen zur Anreise und Unterkunft finden. -- Prof. Dr.-Ing.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Call for papers: IEEE Network- Special issue on Information-Centric Networking Beyond Baseline Scenarios: Research Advances and Implementation Datum: Wed, 18 Sep 2013 08:02:11 +0000 Von: Dr. WANG Jianping <jianwang(a)CITYU.EDU.HK> Antwort an: Dr. WANG Jianping <jianwang(a)CITYU.EDU.HK> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG *Special Issue on Information-Centric Networking Beyond Baseline Scenarios: Research Advances and Implementation* Information-Centric Networking (ICN) has received significant attention in recent years, mainly driven by the fact that distributing and manipulating information has become the major function on the Internet today. Unlike the traditional host-centric networking paradigm where information is obtained by contacting specified named hosts, ICN aims at providing native network primitives for efficient information retrieval by directly naming and operating on information objects. Foreseeing the need and benefits of developing the Future Internet with ICN concepts as a key ingredient, many leading research groups, both industrial and academic, have created a sizable community devoting their efforts to Information-Centric Future Internet designs and prototype implementations. To date, the work in this area has centered on ICN for (largely static) content storage. Within the wider network research area, there are those who believe ICN cannot work for real time communications, dynamic content and other network scenarios. Strong supporters, on the contrary, believe that ICN can be what comes after the current Internet. Whatever one’s stand on the matter, we observe that architectural papers in this area outweigh implementation oriented and ICN application papers. This special issue aims to address both of these issues. To that end, we seek papers that show ICN’s usefulness in a wide range of applications. We are particularly interested in the kinds of applications where ICN solutions are not immediately obvious. Papers that leave the reader thinking “I had no idea ICNs could be used this way” are particularly welcome. On the other hand, we welcome contributions that make solid arguments for places where ICNs cannot replace the current Internet architecture. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Large scale scenarios, deployment, and experimentation * Case studies of security attacks and solutions in ICN * ICN development platforms (testbeds, simulators, open-source code) and tools * Evaluation methodology challenges and advances * ICN protocol design challenges in baseline scenarios * ICN practice, including protocol implementation, empirical performance evaluation and enhancements * ICN and Cloud computing With regard to both the content and formatting style of the submissions, prospective contributors should follow the IEEE Network guidelines for authors that can be found athttp://www.comsoc.org/netmag/paper-submission-guidelines<http://dl.comsoc.org/livepubs/ni/info/authors.html>. Authors should submit their manuscripts through ScholarOne for IEEE Network Magazine.
