Fwd: [Tccc] CFP: Extending the Internet to Low power and Lossy Networks (IP+SN 2011)

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: Extending the Internet to Low power and Lossy Networks (IP+SN 2011) Datum: Mon, 20 Dec 2010 22:51:06 -0500 Von: Andreas Terzis <terzis(a)cs.jhu.edu> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu Extending the Internet to Low power and Lossy Networks (IP+SN 2011) April 11th 2010 Chicago, Illinois Colocated with CPS Week 2011 http://hinrg.cs.jhu.edu/ip+sn2011/ For nearly a decade, wireless sensor network research and development largely assumed that the Internet architecture was ill-suited for sensor networks. Many in the field argued that the Internet protocols were impractical for the resource constrained devices that were being embedded in the physical world; that the end-to-end architecture was inappropriate for the localized algorithms and in-network processing required to achieve robustness and scalability; and that an architecture designed to accommodate a wide range of applications was unnecessary as sensor networks would be tailored to specific target applications. In the past couple years, the Smart Grid push has placed a pressing need to deploy networks that have an unprecedented scale when compared to existing IP networks (e.g., 10 million end points within a single network targeted by utility manufacturers), allow multi-vendor interoperability, and utilize low-cost communication devices. Sensor networks are considered a natural fit for Smart Grid applications such as Automated Metering Infrastructure (AMI) and Home Area Networking (HAN). To address this need, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is working with researchers and practitioners to standardize protocols, such as 6LoWPAN and ROLL, for constrained networks. This workshop solicits articles that describe early experiences with such standards, papers that describe sensor network applications built on top of these standards, as well as research proposals regarding how to extend the standards. Topics of Interest Authors are invited to submit papers for presentation at the workshop. The topics of interest include theoretical and empirical work in, but not limited to: * Experience with 6LoWPAN/RPL implementations * Experience with IP-based sensornet deployments * Interoperability results * Applications of IP-based sensor networks * Application-level protocols (e.g., work related to the IETF CoRE WG on CoAP) * End-to-end, IP-based architectures that include sensor networks * Experience with IP over low-power, duty cycled networks Important Dates * Submission Deadline: Feb 14th * Acceptance Notification: March 4th * Camera Ready Due: March 21st Workshop Organization Co-Chairs * Andreas Terzis, Johns Hopkins University * Jonathan Hui, Cisco Systems, Inc.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: Feature Topic IEEE ComMag: The Internet of Things Datum: Wed, 15 Dec 2010 09:15:12 -0500 Von: Chatschik Bisdikian <bisdik(a)us.ibm.com> An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> Call for Papers IEEE Communications Magazine Feature Topic Issue on The Internet of Things (http://dl.comsoc.org/ci1/info/cfp/cfpcommag1111.htm) The Internet has experienced a tremendous growth in the past three decades, evolving from a network of a few hundred hosts to a platform linking billions of “things” globally, including individual people as well as enterprises of various sizes, through computers of any conceivable size and capability and the applications running on them. The growth of Internet shows no signs of slowing down and it steadily becomes the cause of a new pervasive paradigm in computing and communications. This new paradigm enhances the traditional Internet into a smart Internet of Things (IoT) created around intelligent interconnections of diverse objects in the physical world, such as vehicles, cellphones, habitats and habitat occupants, through low-cost information gathering devices, such as sensors and RFID tags, that facilitate fast-paced interactions among the objects themselves as well as the objects and persons in any place and at any time. IoT will usher a wide range of smart applications and services to cope with many of the challenges that individuals and organizations face in their everyday lives. For example, remote healthcare monitoring systems will help alleviate the severe shortage of healthcare personnel in an ageing society; intelligent transportation systems will help reduce traffic congestion and inevitably ills caused by it such as air-pollution; smart distribution systems from utility grids to supply chains will improve the quality and reduce the cost of their respective goods and services; tagged objects can be recycled more efficiently by being retrieved from bulk waste disposal, and so on. These applications would dramatically change the way our societies function and thus have a big impact on many aspects of people’s life in the years to come. IoT is not a mere extension of today’s Internet or an internet of Internet systems. It represents intelligent end-to-end systems that enable smart solutions and as such it covers a diverse range of technologies, including sensing, communications, networking, computing, information processing, and intelligent control technologies. To make IoT a reality, significant research needs to be conducted within and across these technological aspects of IoT. This has recently motivated a voluminous amount of research activities in the hot field and this Feature Topic Issue intends to capture and expose it to the IEEE ComMag readership. Scope of the issue This feature topic issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art development in technology, application, and standardization in the field of the Internet of Things, and present an insight of future research opportunities and challenges in this field. The feature issue will consider original survey and research articles written in a tutorial style. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Network and system architectures of IoT * Sensing technologies for IoT * Short-range Communications for IoT * Sensor networking technologies for IoT * Access network technologies for IoT * Information processing, management, and distribution in IoT * RFID applications in IoT * Smart grid applications in IoT * Healthcare applications in IoT * Environmental monitoring applications in IoT * Intelligent transportation applications in IoT * Public safety in IoT * Security and privacy management for IoT * Application systems and testbeds for IoT * Standardization activities for IoT Manuscript Submission Authors should submit their manuscripts in PDF format electronically via the Manuscript Central (http://commag-ieee.manuscriptcentral.com).

The resource can be either energy (when it's a limiting factor for the global working time like in sensor networks), or computational time (e.g., for systems with small computational capacities like embedded devices or smart cards). It can also be delivery time (for systems which have to give an answer in a bounded time like real-time systems), or data availability (when data is a central and essential point in the system like in medical systems). The solutions for constrained systems can not only adapt existing approaches for traditional systems as they open a whole new world of opportunities and new applications. Tightly coupled to the physical world, constrained systems need different kinds of programming, of communication and of interfacing. This workshop is focused on resource constrained systems, specifically those used as collaboration systems. The collaborative point of view in constrained systems covers several key aspects: data management, protocols, applications, sharing and exchanging, performance evaluation. The Workshop topics include (but are not limited to) the following: • Data and Resource Sharing • Data Collection and Analysis • Data Fusion and Aggregation • Resource-aware Protocols and Applications • Connectivity, Deployment and Routing • Topology Issues in RCS • QoS issues • Innovative Applications • Trusted Resource Constrained Systems and Applications • Trust and Security • Performance Evaluation of RCS • Modeling and Simulation • Resource Constrained Sensors • Highly Resource Constrained Mobile Platforms • Real-time Computing Systems • Resource Constrained Embedded Systems PAPER SUBMISSION You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works on above and other topics related to CRCS.

Fwd: CfP: 2nd Int. Workshop on Software Engineering for Sensor Network Applications (SESENA)

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: CfP: 2nd Int. Workshop on Software Engineering for Sensor Network Applications (SESENA) Datum: Tue, 14 Dec 2010 11:11:06 +0100 Von: Luca Mottola <luca(a)sics.se> An: Luca Mottola <luca(a)sics.se> Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this. -- 2nd International Workshop on SOFTWARE ENGINEERING FOR SENSOR NETWORK APPLICATIONS May 22, 2011, Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii http://www.sesena.info In conjunction with ACM/IEEE Int. Conf. on Software Engineering (ICSE) Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are a fundamental building-block of the upcoming Internet of Things, as they enable seamless integration of the digital and physical worlds. Despite the interest raised by this decade-old research topic, the development of WSN software is still carried out in a rather primitive fashion, by building software directly atop the operating system and by relying on the individual, hard-earned programming skills. WSN developers must face not only the functional application requirements but also a number of challenging, non-functional requirements and constraints resulting from scarce re- sources. The heterogeneity of network nodes, the unpredictable envi- ronmental influences, and the large size of the network further add to the difficulties. In the WSN community there is a growing awareness of the need for methodologies, techniques, and abstractions that simplify the develop- ment task and increase the confidence in the correctness and perfor- mance of the resulting software. Software engineering (SE) support is therefore sought, not only to ease the development task but also to make it more reliable, dependable, and repeatable. Nevertheless, this topic has received so far very little attention by the SE community. The aim of SESENA11 is to attract researchers belonging to both the SE and WSN communities, not only to exchange their recent research re- sults on the topic, but also to stimulate discussion about the core open problems and to define a shared research agenda. The workshop welcomes both research contributions and position statements. The for- mer will allow discussing in technical depth novel results with an au- dience composed of both SE and WSN researchers. The latter will pro- vide the opportunity for presenting open problems, provocative views, or previously-unexplored ideas in an informal fashion. SESENA11 will also include a "speakers' corner" session composed by impromptu pre- sentations where any of the attendees (including those without an ac- cepted paper) will be given a chance to present their own views in very short statements (e.g., 2-4 minutes). TOPICS OF INTEREST The workshop solicits contributions including, but not limited to, the following aspects of SE for sensor networks: * (macro)programming languages and compilers; * testing and debugging; * formal verification and model checking; * model-driven approaches; * interfacing WSNs and business software SUBMISSIONS Prospective participants are invited to submit research or position papers containing original unpublished material describing ongoing work and new ideas, mature research results, or experience reports. Submissions must conform to the ICSE submission format and rules (see http://2011.icse-conferences.org/content/submission-guidelines). Re- search papers may not exceed 6 pages, position papers must be limited to 2 pages. See the SESENA11 web site (http://www.sesena.info) for submission instructions. The program committee will review all submissions for quality, rele- vance, and their potential to trigger discussions at the workshop. Ac- cepted papers will be published in the ICSE companion proceedings and on the workshop web site.

In order to cope with future demand increases as well as to provide a more robust and efficient way of delivering and distributing electricity, developing smart grid has become an urgent global priority. In the past few years, governments have stepped up efforts to promote smart grid as a viable solution to future energy problems. Standards organizations are also shaping the development of smart grid by defining the characteristics of smart grid. At the same time, the industry begins to invest in enabling technologies for smart grid. With the growth of alternative energy generation and storage, the smart grid system will have to be able to intelligently integrate and control the different elements of the grid so as to realize the full potential of the system. Communication infrastructures are at the core of the smart ! grid as they will empower the legacy power grid with the capability of supporting two-way energy and information flow, isolating and restoring power outages more quickly, facilitating the integration of renewable energy sources into the grid and empowering the consumer with tools for optimizing their energy consumption. With most of the framework defined, there are still many important issues which need to be resolved before smart grid can be operationally ready for the market. We plan this special issue to help address that need, and would like the special issue to focus on recent advances as well as survey papers in communication infrastructures for smart grid. Scope The papers in this special issue will focus on research and experiments in various aspects of smart grid communication infrastructures. We solicit papers covering various topics of interest that include, but not limited to the following: • Demand Response • Network Resource Optimization • Congestion Management for Smart Grid Communications • Self-healing and Self-optimizing Networking • Networking for Smart Grid (e.g. ROLL, 6LoWPAN, IP) • Cyber Security and Privacy • Field Trials • Regulatory Issues • Standardization and Interoperability Manuscript Submission Articles should be of tutorial in nature and authors must follow the IEEE Network guidelines for preparation of the manuscript and its format.

An emerging trend is the collaboration of miniature devices to achieve a common goal. Representative examples include wireless sensor networks, pervasive computing and embedded systems. Along this trend, the notion of Cooperating Objects collectively refers to embedded computing devices equipped with communication as well as sensing or actuation capabilities, able to cooperate and organize themselves autonomously into networks to achieve a common task. As such, Cooperating Objects envision a single, coherent system formed by a wide range of devices, including those from the areas mentioned above. The complexity germane to the interaction inside and across networks of Cooperating Objects presents a rich set of research questions, and entails a wide range of scientific disciplines, such as networking, software engineering, and control theory. CONET 2011 will provide a discussion forum for researchers, aimed at fostering synergy and convergence of complementary areas towards the vision of networks of Cooperating Objects. Work-in-progress systems, provocative ideas, and position papers paving the road towards such synergy and convergence are particularly welcome. Topics of Interest Authors are invited to submit papers for presentation at the workshop. The topics of interest include theoretical and empirical work in, but not limited to: - Resource management of Cooperating Objects - Quality-of-Service in networks of Cooperating Objects - Hardware platforms for Cooperating Objects - Mobile and distributed sensing - Hybrid cooperation of static and mobile nodes - Communication and control of mobile Cooperating Objects - Distributed control and estimation over networks - Decentralized algorithms for control over wireless sensor networks - Decentralized, distributed, and cooperative optimization - Applications of control of Cooperating Objects - Real-time aspects of Cooperation Objects - System software for Cooperating Objects - Communication support for Cooperating Objects - Real-world deployments of Cooperating Objects - Applications of Cooperating Objects to Body Area Networks - Cooperating Objects in Complex Systems - Security and Privacy in Cooperating Objects - Enterprise Integration of Cooperating Objects - Application of wireless sensor networks on Pervasive computing - Closed-loop applications of pervasive computing Paper Submission A paper must be original material that has neither been previously published nor is currently under review by another conference or journal.

While in the past entertainment technology traditionally offered predominantly passive experiences, continual advances in network and computer technologies are providing tools for implementing greater interactivity and for enabling consumers to enjoy more exciting experiences, such as, for example, interactive digital TV, interactive theatre and orchestrated music and sound design. This phenomenon is pulling together an extremely diverse group of experts specializing in different technical areas, such as networking, computer graphics, artificial intelligence, games, animation, multimedia design, human-computer interaction, educational media and software engineering. Even though high-tech entertainment promotes interdisciplinary fusion, yet only the ubiquity of wireless/wired communication is considered suitable for accepting the challenge of building a large interactive environment for the delivery of the maximum entertainment value to millions of consumers worldwide. In this respect, there is a great hope that the wired and wireless may take over this complex scenario for fulfilling the consumer expectations. The Seventh IEEE International Workshop on Networking Issues in Multimedia Entertainment provides an open forum for researchers, engineers and academia to exchange the latest technical information and research findings on next-generation networked multimedia concepts, technologies, systems, and applications for entertainment covering existing deployments, current developments and future evolution. Authors are solicited to submit complete unpublished papers in the following, but not limited to, topic areas: Applications for Entertainment * Architectures, Platforms and Protocols for Networked Games * Internetworking, Vertical Roaming and Session * Handoffs for Entertainment (Internet to WLAN, to 3G/BT/...) * Home LANs, Body and Personal Area Networks for Entertainment * Media and Device Adaptation * Music and Movie Distribution * Next Generation Wireless Technologies for Entertainment (IEEE802.11n, UWB and Beyond) * Opportunistic Multi-hopping and Opportunistic Networks for Entertainment * QoS and Security Support for Entertainment * Resource and Service Discovery Technologies (P2P, LDAP) * Technologies for Networked In-Home/Car/Flight/Train Entertainment * TV-Centric and Broadcast Networks for Entertainment Technologies for Entertainment * Agent-based Entertainment * Augmented, Virtual and Mixed Reality * Artificial Intelligence * Evolutionary Entertainment * Interactive Television and Theatre * Massive Multiplayer Games * Mobile and Wireless Entertainment * Networked Entertainment * Networked Narrative and Digital Interactive Storytelling * Networked Video, Music and Sound Design * Pervasive Entertainment * Personalized and User-Adapted Television * Sport, News and Entertainment * Virtual Technology and Virtual Environments for Entertainment * Wearable Entertainment * Wireless and Mobile Gaming * Testbed and Performance Evaluation PAPER SUBMISSION Submitted manuscripts must be formatted in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font) and must be submitted via EDAS as PDF files (formatted for letter (8.5x11-inch) paper). The manuscripts should be no longer than 6 pages. Up to two additional pages are permitted if the authors are willing to pay an over-length charge at the time of publication (manuscripts may not exceed 8 pages). Submitted papers may not have been previously published in or be under consideration for publication in another journal or conference. The Program Committee reserves the right to not review papers that either exceed the length specification or have been submitted or published elsewhere. Submissions must include a title, abstract, keywords, author(s) and affiliation(s) with postal and e-mail address(es). Submission format and instruction, as well as other important information, can be found on the author guide web page of the main conference (http://www.icccn.org/icccn11/author.html ). Paper Submission Process Papers have to be submitted to a track via EDAS http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=9487. Note the following submission process: - An abstract must be registered for each paper by the abstract registration deadline. - There is no "general track". Each paper must be submitted to one specific track. Please check the list of tracks and topics to identify the most suitable track. If there is a concern about where to submit a paper, contact the workshop general co-chairs. Accepted papers will be published as part of the IEEE ICCCN 2011 main conference proceedings as NIME'11 is considered part of ICCCN2011.
