-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CfP: International Workshop on Network Resilience: From Research to Practice Datum: Thu, 28 Apr 2011 10:09:50 +0200 Von: Christian Doerr <c.doerr(a)tudelft.nl> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu ------------------------------------------------------------------ CALL FOR PAPERS 1st International Workshop on Network Resilience: From Research to Practice October 4th, 2011, Madrid, Spain. http://www-nas.et.tudelft.nl/wnr/ to be held in conjunction with with IEEE SRDS 2011 http://lsd.ls.fi.upm.es:11888/srds/ ------------------------------------------------------------------ The research community has developed elaborate mechanisms and strategies to ensure the resilience of critical networking infrastructures. A challenge for researchers is ensuring their output is relevant to practitioners, and can thus lead to the improved resilience of current and future network deployments. This is difficult for several reasons: the challenges of acquiring useful detailed information regarding network outages; the difficulties of wide-scale experimentation with network disruptions such as attacks; the general lack of transparency regarding the challenges faced by network operators and the processes used to mitigate them; and the difficulty of modelling the complex manner in which socio-technical networked systems fail. This workshop aims to bring together practitioners at the frontline of providing resilient network infrastructures with the research community in order to engage in a dialogue that can steer future resilience research in directions that will meet the resilience problems of current and future networks. In line with this goal, this workshop will feature a hybrid approach of individual presentations, combined with interactive sessions intended to stimulate active exchange and collaboration between the communities. The major areas of interest pertain to all stages of resilient networks' design and operation, and include, but are not limited to, the following: * Resilient network design, current practice and research proposals * Composition/correlatio of network resilience metrics across the protocol stack * Approaches to carrying out large-scale disruptive resilience experiments, and results from these * Analysis of network outages that provide insights regarding the efficacy of resilience approaches * Empirical approaches to specifying desired levels of network resilience * Service level agreements and their mapping on fault management procedures * Risk assessment approaches to inform resilience decision making * The role of the human operator in the operation of resilient autonomic systems * Understanding the complexities of resilience incidents, such as cascading effects * Cross-disciplinary aspects, including the economic and legal frameworks for providing network resilience * Measurement approaches and metrics for assessing resilience in practical deployments * Anticipated resilience problems caused by future Internet service provisioning platforms * Techniques for enhancing existing networks with resilience capabilities Organising Committee: * Christian Doerr, Technical University Delft, Netherlands * Merkouris Karaliopoulos, University of Athens, Greece * Christian Rohner, Uppsala University, Sweden * Marcus Schöller, NEC Laboratories Europe, Germany * Paul Smith, Lancaster University, UK Important Dates and Deadlines: * Paper Submission: June 10, 2011 * Author Notification: June 30, 2011 * Camera Ready: July 15, 2011 * Workshop Date: October 4, 2011 Submission Guidelines: Authors should prepare a Portable Document Format (PDF) version of their full paper. Regular papers must be no longer than 6 pages, following the IEEE two-column format for conference proceedings. The font size must be no smaller than 10 points, and must fit properly on US “Letter”-sized paper (8.5 x 11 inches). All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed and the accepted papers will be included in a Workshop Proceedings distributed at the Symposium. _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Mycolleagues] Call for contributions: 1st RAWSNETS Workshop @ AVSS-2011 Datum: Mon, 25 Apr 2011 23:35:57 +0200 Von: Dr. Christian Micheloni <christian.micheloni(a)uniud.it> Antwort an: admmyc(a)gmail.com An: mycolleagues(a)mailman.ufsc.br **Please accept our apologies for multiple copies ========================================================================================= 1st Workshop on Resources AWare Sensor and surveillance NETworkS (RAWSNETS) August 30, Klagenfurt, Austria Associated with the 8th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Video and Signal-Based Surveillance Klagenfurt University August 30 – September 2, 2011 Call for Contribution and Participation ========================================================================================= In the real applications domain, monitoring technology has to cope with different constraints that open to interesting research topics. In particular in context of sensor networks three main resources present strong limitations: a)Communication, b) Computational Power and c) Power Consumption. All these limitations become more evident with the increase of the number of sensors deployed by the network. These limitations require a sort of awareness of the system that can take measures to adapt its performance or operability in order to adhere to the constraints. In the context of video sensor networks, the bandwidth limitation strongly upper-bounds the amount of data that each node/camera can share through the network. Hence distributed and hierarchic models have gained major interest against centric models. Anyhow, distributed knowledge still require information sharing for consensus policies. Information sharing requires information extraction that hence has to be handled as close as possible to the data acquisition. This foresees smart sensors able to perform as many as possible analysis of the data. Currently this is bound by the computational power available on-board of embedded platforms. Limited computational power implies to work on simpler data (low resolution images, low frame rate, etc.) or to adapt the quality of the data as consequence of its content (event or not). On top of that, the mobility of the sensor networks (ad hoc deployments, moving sensors, etc.) introduces the third limitation that is represented by the power consumption. Power, in these networks, is not unlimited, it is a paramount resource. Saving power means sustain the operability of the network. Properly switching on and off the sensors allows to save power. Switching on and off policies are fundamental and should be based on the assessment of the sensor importance at each time instant. It is clear that methods to control the analysis parameters of the sensor network together with algorithms able to manage the network in terms of communication, computational power and consumption are key research areas for future resource aware sensor networks. Paper Submission ========================================================================================= The workshop aims to present the latest achievements and future developments in the field of resource aware sensor network. The workshop will be organized as a round table where all the participants can interact in an active manner. A keynote speaker will be individuated to give wide introduction about the research field and propose different discussion topics. Around the keynote speech, participants will be asked to contribute to the discussion. Participation requires to submit an extended abstract (about 1000-2000 words) of current research in the resource aware sensor networks field. Accepted contributors will be asked to give an interactive presentation in order to give a full coverage of the topics. Publication ========================================================================================= Selected contributions will be published in the AVSS proceedings Important Dates ========================================================================================= . Submission: April 29th, 2011 .

Fwd: [Tccc] Elsevier : COMCOM Call for Paper Special Issue on Reactive Sensor Networks
by Lars Wolf 26 Apr '11

26 Apr '11

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] Elsevier : COMCOM Call for Paper Special Issue on Reactive Sensor Networks Datum: Mon, 25 Apr 2011 16:31:22 +0800 Von: Chen, Jie (ELS-BEI) <J.Chen(a)elsevier.com> An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> Call for Papers Special Issue on Reactive Sensor Networks Scope A common assumption in Wireless Sensor Networks is that they comprise resource-constrained static nodes which sense their environment and then send their measurements to a central base station through mutihop routing. Soon, it was realized that this network organization leads to rapid energy exhaustion of sensors around the base station since these nodes should relay all the traffic destined for the base station. In addition, the passive nature of static sensors which can only sense and are unable to move is not always helpful in target-tracking scenarios or in cases where real-time action is necessary for handling emergency situations. Apparently, a reactive (dynamic) behavior from these networks would be effective for dealing with a number of changing operational conditions (e.g. node failures, energy exhaustion in some nodes) or with real-time events. This Special Issue will focus on all forms of reactive behavior that can be incorporated in the functionality of a Wireless Sensor Network and will also identify new possibilities, opportunities and challenges deriving from this new paradigm. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: Sink mobility in Wireless Sensor Networks Wireless Sensor Actuator Networks Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile sensors Re-tasking in Wireless Sensor Networks Mobile agent based solutions in Wireless Sensor Networks Node redeployment techniques in Wireless Sensor Networks for improved connectivity and/or coverage Re-clustering techniques in Wireless Sensor Networks Dynamic MAC and routing protocols in Wireless Sensor Networks for increased network lifetime Reactive methods in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks Reactive methods for target tracking in Wireless Sensor Networks Dynamic techniques for data aggregation/fusion in Wireless Sensor Networks Security, trust and privacy in Reactive Sensor Networks Tentat Tentative Schedule Manuscript submission deadline: November 30, 2011 First Notification: March 10, 2012 Submission of revised paper: April 20, 2012 Notification of acceptance: May 31, 2012 Guest Guest Editors Dr. Charalampos Konstantopoulos University of Piraeus, Greece (konstant(a)unipi.gr) Prof. Paolo Bellavista Università di Bologna, Italy (paolo.bellavista(a)unibo.it) Prof. Damla Turgut University of Central Florida, USA (turgut(a)cs.ucf.edu) Prof. Chi-Fu Huang National Chung Cheng University, Taiwan (cfhuang(a)cs.ccu.edu.tw) Instructions for submission: The submission website for this journal is located at http://ees.elsevier.com/comcom To ensure that all manuscripts are correctly identified for inclusion into the Special Issue, the authors have to select "Special Issue: Reactive WSN" when they reach the "Article Type" step in the submission process. _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

The setting is informal. Topics of interest are the same as research topics in the SIGCOMM conference call for papers. Although anyone can submit a poster, preference will be given to posters where the primary contribution is from one or more students. The SIGCOMM 2011 Poster and Demo committee will review all demo proposals. At the conference, a student must present student posters. Authors of accepted papers in SIGCOMM 2011 may not submit a poster on the same work in those papers. Student Research Competition The SIGCOMM poster session will also serve as an ACM student research competition. Qualified entrants must have current ACM student membership, have graduate or undergraduate student status at the time of submission (May 2011, below), and be submitted by a single student author. Supervisors are not permitted to coauthor the poster. (Please contact the poster chairs if this restriction represents a hardship.) Undergraduates and graduate students will be treated in separate divisions. (Students starting their first year of graduate school at the time of the conference will be considered as undergraduates.) A small travel supplement is made available to accepted entrants: please also submit applications for travel grant support. The ACM SRC program is sponsored by Microsoft Research. Winners will advance to ACM Grand Finals of the Student Research Competition to compete against the winners of other ACM conferences. Why Should You Submit a Poster? This is a great chance especially for students to obtain interesting and valuable feedback on ongoing research from a knowledgeable crowd at the conference. In addition, top few submissions will be forwarded for publication to ACM SIGCOMM's newletter, the ACM Computer Communication Review (CCR). Travel Grants for Student Posters Students who are submitting posters are highly encouraged to examine if they are eligible for student travel grants. What is a Poster? We define a poster to be A0 paper size in portrait mode (841x1189mm), to which you can affix visually appealing material that describes your research. Alternatively, you can use the space as a continuum. You should prepare the best material (visually appealing and succinct) that effectively communicates your research problem, techniques, results, and what is novel and important about your work. Note that you do not submit such a large-format image; only an abstract describing in text what the poster would present. What and Where to Submit Please submit a two-page abstract on the work to https://sigcomm2011posters.cs.wisc.edu. The decision will be taken primarily by reading the abstract. Submissions are single blind, so please include authors' names and affiliation. Content: The abstract should clearly state: • the problem being addressed; • what makes this problem interesting, important, and difficult; • your approach to the problem; • the key contribution In the final version of the abstract, you should include a URL that provides additional information about your work to the attendees. Formatting: Prepare your abstract using ACM conference style, modified to 10pt. Concretely, two columns, minimum 10pt times with 0.75 inch margins and 1/3 inch space between columns. The abstract must be within the page limit and in PDF format. Word documents will not be accepted. At the conference, we will distribute the abstracts to all conference attendees.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: Nov 2011 IEEE Communications Magazine, Consumer Communications and Networking Series Datum: Wed, 20 Apr 2011 11:20:13 +0100 Von: Dr Mario Kolberg <mko(a)cs.stir.ac.uk> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu Apologies, if you receive multiple copies of the email. Call for Papers IEEE Communications Magazine Consumer Communications and Networking Series Recent trends in consumer networking are that consumers are both creators and producers of content (albeit of varying quality!) and peer distribution is the natural model. This is one of the emerging trends that impact how consumers can use devices to create, manipulate, store, and access content — and is surely a much different view compared to only five years ago where most experts still viewed the world in terms of servers and clients, producers and consumers as distinct and separate entities….indeed, there are still dinosaur organizations out there today who are fighting a rearguard action to protect their dwindling revenue streams because they haven’t been brave enough to embrace this new model. Trends like this are ones that papers for the consumer communications and networking series should address. We have also seen the technological reach of existing solutions being applied in unconventional ways where all aspects of our digital lives are being consumed to provide novel platforms where interoperation between disparate technologies is now possible. For example, the automotive industry is now producing cars that include ad hoc networks designed to provide multimedia solutions as well as links to wide area communications via satellite networks. Using these networking capabilities and interfaces such as USB we see automobile functionality being extended. In this sense the boundaries between the car and conventional consumer devices are beginning to blur. Perhaps the sole technology responsible for the many technological advances we see today is communications. Example communications technologies include the emergence of 3G and 4G, LTE and WiMax, Bluetooth, Zigbee, Ultrawideband, TV-band, and Powerline and Free space optical. Applications of these technologies include personal and body area networking, home networking, game networking, ad-hoc networking, and sensor networking. These networks may be connected through networking layers that are cognitive, peer-to-peer enabled, and have the properties of self organisation and management. These networks will become key enablers where we are already seeing ubiquitous content distribution models, for example, television can now be viewed wherever we are and on any devices capable of connecting to one of the many networking paradigms defined above. With these networks we can expect a platform for true innovation where content distribution will overlay these networks using compression, rights management, delivery, and appropriate quality of service mechanisms that can be seamlessly moved over these next generation networks. All of this is made possible by networking, software and middleware that present to the service designer the tools to provide ease of use, security, and stunning interactivity to the end consumer. With this in mind the IEEE Communications Magazine is seeking papers that emphasize consumer networking in whatever physical environment it finds itself. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: Scope of Contributions • Wireless Multimedia Networks • Body and Personal Area Networks • Mobile Networks and Multimedia • Emerging Wireless Technologies (UWB, OFDM, RFID, Zigbee, etc.) • Distributed Network Protocols for Multimedia HD Audio/Video Networking • Networked Appliances • Entertainment Networks • P2P Algorithms and Architectures for Consumer Electronics Peer Streaming, Networking and Applications • Home Networking and Automation • Next Generation Networks • Pervasive Computing and Contextual Systems • Middleware for Networked Consumer Devices • Media and Device Adaptation • Architecture, Platforms and Protocols for Networked Games and Virtual Worlds. • Social Networking and Home Entertainment • Music and Movie Distribution Models • Augmented Reality • Task Computing and the Home • Home Sensor Networks • Autonomic Home Networking • Zero Configuration Networking • Digital Rights Management • Trust in Social Networks • Voice/Video of IP Articles should be tutorial in nature, with the intended audience being all members of the communications technology communities. They should be written in a style comprehensible to readers outside the specialty of the article. Articles should not exceed 4500 words.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Mycolleagues] CFP: Design and Implementation Series (IEEE Communications Magazine) Datum: Tue, 19 Apr 2011 09:35:44 +0200 Von: Salvatore Loreto <salvatore.loreto(a)ericsson.com> An: mycolleagues(a)mailman.ufsc.br Hi there, I want bring your attention to the following Call For Paper in IEEE Communication Magazine cheers /Sal -- Salvatore Loreto www.sloreto.com /IEEE Communications Magazine/ Call for Papers Design and Implementation Series The primary goal of Communications Magazine's Design and Implementation Series of articles is to serve the needs of telecommunications and telephony professionals in industry. Their jobs are often focused on creating products and services that maximize return on investment and that operate robustly across a broad range of environments. Typically, though, engineering represents only a small fraction of the total R&D effort. This is because many other factors must be taken into account that are not considered on the chalkboard or in a proof-of-concept; for example, interoperability, scalability (in both directions), compatibility (in both directions), cost-of-goods, market dynamics, security, effective user interfaces, technical risk, serviceability, manageability, supportability, testability, availability, deployability, recovery, packaging, etc. The ability to design and implement solutions successfully in such a complex environment is gained largely through experience and not through literature searches or collaborations with industry peers. Hence, the Design and Implementation Series seeks articles that provide practical knowledge for creating products and services while retaining the academically rigorous style and structure typical of Communications Magazine articles. You can write about any telecommunications or telephony topic, but we are particularly interested in IP telephony applications and infrastructure, especially in markets where non-traditional providers and vendors compete. Emphasize the factors that contributed to the decision process for your design and implementation, and tell us about the lessons learned, good or bad, from the experience. As much as possible, these decision factors should be generic enough to be applicable broadly to most telephony projects, regardless of their design details, and thus of interest to technologists outside the specialty of the article. *Submission* Prospective authors are strongly encouraged to contact the Series Editor before writing and submitting an article in order to ensure that the article will be appropriate for the Series. The submitted articles should not be published elsewhere or be under review for any other conference or journal. Articles should be tutorial yet rigorous in nature. Mathematical equations should not be used (although some simple equations may be allowed if permission is granted by the Series Editors and the Editor-in-Chief). Articles should not exceed 4500 words. Figures and tables should be limited to a combined total of six. Complete guidelines for prospective authors can be found at http://dl.comsoc.org/livepubs/ci1/info/sub_guidelines.html Please send PDF (preferred) or MSWORD formatted papers to Manuscript Central (http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/commag-ieee), register or log in, and go to the Author Center. Follow the instructions there, and select the topic "Design and Implementation Series." Consider this CFP to be permanently open until further notice. *Publication Schedule* Submission Deadline: Seven (7) months before publication date Acceptance Notification: Four (4) months before publication date Final Manuscript Submission: Two (2) months before publication date Publication Date: Design & Implementation Series articles are published approximately semi-annually (every six (6) months) *Design & Implementation Series * Salvatore Loreto Ericsson Research, Nomadiclab Hirsalantie 11 Jorvas 02420 Finland Sean Moore Centripetal Networks, Inc. 20 Mendelssohn Drive Hollis, NH USA 03049 TEL: +1 978-677-5232
