-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] [tccc] CFP: 12th International Conference on ITS Telecommunications (ITST-2012), Taipei, Taiwan, Datum: Tue, 29 May 2012 17:19:57 +0800 Von: Chun-Cheng Lin (NCTU) <cclin321(a)nctu.edu.tw> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu == Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this Call for Papers == ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12th International Conference on ITS Telecommunications (ITST-2012) Taipei, Taiwan November 5 - 8, 2012 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.itst2012.org/ Current Highlights: ---------------- - Technical co-sponsorship by IEEE ComSoc has been approved. - Technical co-sponsorship by IEICE-CS has been approved. - Technical co-sponsorship by IET has been approved. - Technical co-sponsorship by Technical Committee on ITS of Engineering Sciences Society (ESS), The Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineering (IEICE) - 20 papers will be selected to win Best Paper Awards of ITST 2012 and to peer-review rounds for possible inclusion in the IET ITS (approved by EiC of IET ITS: Alan Stevens). - Several papers will be invited to further review rounds for possible inclusion in IEEE ITS Magazine (approved by IEEE ITSS President: Alberto Broggi). - Keynote Speaker: Dr. Adam Drobot, former President of Advanced Technology Solutions/Telcordia, CTO for Telcordia Topic: ITS Telecommunications: .Car .Road .Net - Keynote Speaker: Prof. Hanna Bogucka Topic: Holistic Approach to Future Green Mobile Communications. - Keynote Speaker: Dr. Michele Fiorini, IET Italy Chairman & Principal Engineer Topic: The Titanic's Myth – A Century of Legend and Technology - Keynote Speaker: Prof. Alberto Broggi, President (2010-2011), IEEE ITS Society Topic: Driverless Vehicles: Challenges and Future Wireless communication for intelligent transportation systems (ITS) is a promising technology to improve safety and security for all transport modes, to reduce traffic congestion, to optimize the use of existing infrastructures (road, rail maritime, fluvial) and support information services in vehicles with the general purpose of reducing the impact of transport on the environment. The development of sustainable mobility is a key challenge for the development of urban areas. A new era of vehicular technology that includes vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication is already there in the public transport domain and this should be generalized. This era will be driven by both (pre-competitive) public-sector and private-sector funding. Safety-related applications are not only taken into consideration, but non-safety multimedia content providers are also becoming a new topic of research. Key players in the industry, such as automotive companies, public transport operators, railway industries and government agencies, are investing heavily in the advanced research and development of many ITS technologies and applications. This research effort primarily focuses on the system development and standardization of telematics. During recent ITS developments, transportation telematics techniques have exhibited much progress, e.g., interaction between vehicles and the infrastructure for delivering services such as road-side assistance, automatic crash notification, concierge assistance and vehicle condition reports. These progresses are also really important in the public transport domain (buses, metro, trains, tramways) for which V2V and V2I for safety and non safety applications are a key component for the exploitation but also for reducing energy consumption. A number of IEEE 802.11p-like equipment prototypes have been built, and several technical reports based on field trials have demonstrated the lack of cutting-edge techniques to improve system performance. Furthermore, all these applications require accurate and reliable positioning using GNSS solutions alone or enhanced with map-matching and sensors fusion. Technology and applications for ITS and telematics design are rapidly emerging, and there is a critical need to bring together professional researchers, intelligent engineers, academia, industry, standard committees, the private sector and the public sector to exchange new ideas. This conference aims to spur research progress by serving as a forum in which both academia and industry can share experiences and report original work regarding all aspects of vehicular communication, e.g., Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs), cooperative systems, information dissemination, road and rail safety, information and emergency services, etc. Our primary goal is to promote meaningful research in the cross-layered design of architectures, algorithms and applications for vehicular communication environments in all transport modes. Topics of Interest: ---------------- Four tracks will be emphasized in ITST-2012 (but not limited on): Track1: Smart Vehicle ‧ Video/Audio signal processing for driver-assistance systems ‧ In-vehicle communications/telematics ‧ Analog/Digital circuit design for in-car smart systems ‧ SoC architecture/platform for smart vehicle systems ‧ Green design techniques for ITS ‧ Security and privacy in vehicular networks ‧ Field operational tests and testbeds for smart vehicular ‧ Vehicle collision avoidance ‧ Sensors and actuators Track2: Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) ‧ Data-collection, organization and dissemination methods ‧ New ITS/Telematics applications ‧ Ongoing ITS/Telematics activities Track3: Telecommunications and Positioning ‧ V2V, V2I and V2X communications ‧ Network protocols including MAC, routing, addressing, multicast, TCP protocols and end-to-end quality of service, resource management, security and privacy ‧ Design with multiple wireless data links (802.11p, 802.11x, WiMAX, WiFi, cell phone, LTE-A, GPS) ‧ Mobility or handover technology ‧ System-level, board-level and chip-level electronics ‧ PHY issues: channel measurements, channel modeling, channel estimation, antenna arrangement, pilot arrangement, etc. ‧ Physical layer and antenna technologies for vehicular networks ‧ RF propagation models for vehicular networks ‧ Radio resource management for vehicular networks ‧ GPS, GALILEO and terrestrial solutions for accurate and reliable positioning of vehicles Track4: Green Life Toward Blue Planet ‧ Field operational tests and testbeds for vehicular networks ‧ Assessment of impact of vehicular networks on transportation efficiency and safety ‧ Emission modeling and environmental impact assessment ‧ Regional requirements and their consequences ‧ Interference-Management and Spectrally-Efficient Technologies ‧ Resource-Efficient Networking Technology and Application Design ‧ Cross-Layer Design/Optimization and Green Transceiver Design ‧ Novel technologies to reduce human electromagnetic exposure and electromagnetic pollution Some papers will be nominated by the International Advisory Board for the “Best Paper Award.” To enhance the scientific quality of this event, the conference Organizing Committee has entered into an agreement with the Editor-in-Chief (Dr. Alan Stevens) and the publishing office of IET Intelligent Transport Systems (IET ITS), which is an SCI-E (ISI) and EI indexed peer-reviewed journal.

CFP (Deadline extended): Special Issue on Quality of Experience in Wireless Multimedia Systems (ETT)
by Periklis Chatzimisios 28 May '12

28 May '12

-------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS----------------- Transactions on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies (ETT) Special Issue on Quality of Experience in Wireless Multimedia Systems Aim and Scope: One important objective of new broadband wireless communication networks is to enable people to enjoy multimedia services anywhere at any time. During the recent decade, a variety of techniques have been developed that address Quality of Service (QoS) for multimedia applications in wireless networks. Good QoS is necessary, but not necessarily sufficient for good user perception, enjoyment and acceptance of a service. Thus, Quality of Experience (QoE) / Quality of Perception (QoP) has emerged as an important concept, covering subjective and objective, qualitative and quantitative measures of ultimate importance for users and thus, for service providers and operators. QoE issues have been creating a new assessment and management paradigm in multimedia systems, and they are gaining special attention in wireless communication networks, as the latter have proven to be quite hostile environments for multimedia streaming due to volatile radio conditions and lacks of capacity. QoE metrics are considered as important metrics to measure the quality level of multimedia contents from the users' perspective. QoE-oriented approaches aim to overcome the limitations of current QoS-aware schemes, not only emerging as a new trend towards objective measures but also providing necessary links to human perception. The use of such metrics is expected to turn the optimization of wireless networks more efficient in terms of user satisfaction than traditional techniques that are focusing solely on objective QoS metrics such as throughput, delay, jitter, throughput-based fairness, etc.QoE models that include user perception and user behavior are of essential importance for QoE-aware optimization of any communication system. In particular, novel QoE-aware transmission approaches are encouraged to be proposed to improve the efficiency of wireless networks for multimedia services. The aim of this feature topic issue isto encourage researchers to submit their work related to QoE-aware wireless multimedia networks. Authors with recent unpublished work on QoE modeling,measurements, analysis, control and optimization are particularly encouraged to submit their original contribution to this special issue. This feature topic also aims at bringing together the state-of-the-art research results of QoE issues for wireless multimedia networks.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] Call for Papers: ACM MiSeNet 2012 - In Conjunction with ACM MobiCom 2012 Datum: Sun, 27 May 2012 11:08:55 -0400 (EDT) Von: Habib M. Ammari <hammari(a)umd.umich.edu> Antwort an: hammari(a)umd.umich.edu An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu The First ACM Annual International Workshop on Mission-Oriented Wireless Sensor Networking (ACM MiSeNet 2012) In conjunction with ACM MobiCom 2012 Istanbul, Turkey, August 22-26, 2012 http://www-personal.engin.umd.umich.edu/~hammari/MiSeNet_Workshop2012.html Call for Papers Scope and Aim of ACM MiSeNet 2012 Mission-oriented sensor networks are next-generation time-varying systems composed of both humans and mobile sensors (e.g., vehicle-mounted, human-operated, or integrated with mobile robots or UAVs) that collaborate and coordinate to successfully accomplish complex real-time missions under uncertainty. A major challenge in the design of mission-oriented sensor networks arises in supporting dynamic topology and disruption-tolerant architecture, caused by mobility, which has significant impact on performance in terms of sensing coverage, network connectivity, and information quality. In such dynamic environments, sensors should self-organize and reason in a distributed manner about resource allocation, scheduling, forwarding, caching, and in-network storage to accomplish specific missions, while extending the operational network lifetime. Another major challenge lies in accommodating human input. Humans are the ultimate sensors. They are well-equipped to monitor and report situations that would be very difficult for machine sensors to understand. They also come with their own challenges including imperfect reliability, bias, and relative lack of predictability (compared to well-calibrated sensors). The design of mission-oriented sensor networks, where humans and sensors collaborate, should account for trade-offs between several attributes such energy consumption (due to mobility, sensing, and communication), reliability, fault-tolerance, data collection latency, and quality of information (such as video resolution, picture quality, type of content, degree of redundancy, and level of summarization), and their impact on mission objectives. It should accommodate human-centric sensing modalities such as free-form text, pictures, sound, and video, and should include mechanisms to handle unpredictability, uncertainty, human error, and noise. ACM MiSeNet 2012 aims to provide a forum for participants from academia and industry to discuss topics in mission-oriented sensor network research and practice. ACM MiSeNet 2012 serves as incubator for scientific communities that share a particular research agenda in this area. ACM MiSeNet 2012 will provide them with opportunities to understand the major technical and application challenges as well as exchange and discuss scientific and engineering ideas related to architecture, protocols, algorithms, and application design, at a stage before they have matured to warrant conference/journal publications. ACM MiSeNet 2012 seeks papers that present novel theoretical and practical ideas as well as work in-progress, which will lead to the development of solid foundations for the design, analysis, and implementation of energy-efficient, reliable, and secure mission-oriented networked sensing applications. The topics of interest to ACM MiSeNet 2012 workshop include, but are not limited to, the following: - Theoretical foundations of mission-oriented networked sensing - Modeling and analysis of mission-oriented sensor networks - System design, implementation, and evaluation - Medium access control and scheduling - Human factors, data cleaning, and noise - Human-centric sensing modalities and quality of information - Cross-layer design - Software architectures for mission-oriented sensing - Self-organization, self-configuration, and energy efficiency - Coverage and connectivity issues - Collaboration of humans and sensors - Deployment and localization - Uncertainty, opportunistic communication, and data fusion - Topology control and fault-tolerance - Routing and data dissemination - In-network data storage and processing - Sensor database management and spatio-temporal data - Target detection and tracking - Privacy and security - Testbed design and real-world applications General Chair - Tarek Abdelzaher (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, USA) Program Chair - Habib M.

In particular, the self-* properties (self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing and self-protection) outline the fundamental features of an autonomic computing system. Parallel and distributed systems, a computing domain with great applicability in a variety of industrial and domestic contexts, rely on self-* software to manage a large number of heterogeneous computation, communication, and storage resources. The challenges of energy efficiency, dependability and security are of particular interest. This special issue addresses the software aspects of the whole design and operational process and system architecture of self-* parallel and distributed systems. We welcome studies on all forms of software, including application software and system software. The relevant scope of parallel and distributed systems widely covers, but is not limited to, embedded systems, large-scale networks, cyber-physical systems (CPS), cloud-computing etc. The systems under focus should integrate software with clear and novel self-* features to be qualified for acceptance. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: - Model-driven engineering of self-* distributed systems- Robust design of self-* parallel and distributed systems- Software design and implementation for energy-awareness- Energy-awareness in self-organizing systems such as in cluster-based systems and cloud computing- Real-time aspects, especially in conjunction with other conflicting design goals- Evolvability aspects- Resilience of autonomic distributed and parallel systems- Self-healing and protection for dependable and secure systems- Software for interoperable heterogeneous networked systems - Specification and modeling languages for self-* properties- Formal validation and verification- Software testing- Parallel and distributed debugging- Application and industrial case studies- Retrospective, Review and Future Perspectives Before submission authors should carefully read over the journal's Author Guidelines, which are located at http://www.hindawi.com/journals/ase/guidelines.html.

[UbiComp 2012 CfP] - Effects of Subliminal Perception in Ubiquitous Computing Environments (only 1 week left!)
by Andreas Riener 22 May '12

22 May '12

[our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CfP] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | WORKSHOP "Methodical Approaches to Prove the Effects of Subliminal | | Perception in Ubiquitous Computing Environments" | | | | Pittsburgh, PA, USA; September 8, 2012 | | colocated with UbiComp 2012 (http://www.ubicomp.org/ubicomp2012) | | | | Workshop website: http://www.pervasive.jku.at/UbiComp12 | | Submission deadline (position papers): May 28, 2012 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------| WORKSHOP SUMMARY |-------------------------- There has been much debate around perception of subliminal cues, and their effect on human behavior, especially whether such an effect indeed exists or is only a false marketing myth (Vicary, 1957). As the preven- tion of additional cognitive workload in HCI is a topic of increasing importance, new forms or modalities of interaction between humans and interfaces need to be explored. One promising approach is to use subliminal stimulation or the injection of information below aware perception. To throw light on this issue, the workshop is centered on the questions how subliminal effects can be scientifically supported or how a certain claim could be empirically re- futed. Researchers are welcome to submit position papers by May 28th, 2012 via the electronic paper submission system available at the workshop website (http://www.pervasive.jku.at/Ubicomp12/). Papers must describe the app- roach and experimental setting used for testing subliminal interaction in HCI, as well as provide a discussion whether or not the effect could have been scientifically supported. More detailed information about aim, submission and review process, etc. is available at the workshop website (http://www.pervasive.jku.at/Ubicomp12/). ---------------------------| Workshop Themes |-------------------------- We are interested in receiving contributions & discussing topics at the workshop related to: * Philosophy, rationale for the use of subliminal interfaces in UbiComp environments * Ethical issues in application of subliminal perception and impact * Risk assessment in subliminal interfaces (from the view of the user or the system developer) * Qualitative/quantitative evaluation methodologies for the perception of subliminal information * Subliminally delivered information and relation to other constructs such as cognitive load, perceived performance, emotions, etc. * Characteristics of subliminally delivered information (e.g., reachable bandwidth, natural bounds, complexity of information, appropriate mo- dalities, speed of perception, strength/ duration/frequency) * Effectiveness of subliminal perception in UbiComp environments (such as context-aware adaptive interfaces, user-aware adaptive interfaces, personalized commercials,...) * Subliminal perception using different modalities (visual: flashing picture, video, text; auditory: compressed speech, music, non-speech sounds; haptic/tactile; olfactory, or others) * Issues with subliminal perception, such as social acceptance or pre- ference, privacy issues, security issues * Individual differences in threshold of subliminal perception (gender, age, (dis)abilities, cognitive style, cultural/ethnologic background) Please submit your position papers of up to 6 pages in SIGCHI archival format using the workshop paper submission system available at https://www.pervasive.jku.at/Ubicomp12/submissions/openconf.php SIGCHI templates can be downloaded at the the UbiComp 2012 template web- page at (http://www.ubicomp.org/ubicomp2012/calls/templates.html). Sub- missions do not need to be anonymous.

INTRODUCTION The physical things and the human society have formed into the world we live in. However, the emergence of information technologies enables a new infrastructure for a technical, economic and social revolution, which have changed the world we are used to. Cyber-physical systems couple the cyber aspects of computing and communications with the physical aspects of dynamics that must abide by the laws of physics. Social computing has become more widely known because of proliferation of online social networking in recent years. With the advent of ubiquitous sensing, future social networks will become cyber-physical, combining measured elements of the physical world. The convergence of computational and physical processes as well as human's social behaviors exhibits a variety of complicated characteristics, which leads to a lot of challenges. The 2012 IEEE International Conference on Cyber, Physical, and Social Computing (CPSCom 2012) will provide a high-profile, leading-edge forum for researchers, engineers, and practitioners to present state-of-art advances and innovations in theoretical foundations, systems, infrastructure, tools, testbeds, and applications for the CPSCom, as well as to identify emerging research topics and define the future.
