The Internet mirrors and enhances all aspects of our lives, by creating unprecedented opportunities for advancing knowledge in all fields of human activities. However, the 21st century society's needs may not be met by the current trajectory of incremental changes to the current Internet. Furthermore, the continued success of the Internet is increasingly threatened by increased and sophisticated security attacks and by the lack of performance reliability of Internet services. Therefore, the research community worldwide is engaged in exploring new architectures and solutions for the future Internet. The goal of this special issue is to feature diverse architectural design ideas for the future Internet based on a broad spectrum of design perspectives, motivations for change, and sound design principles. While research on future Internet design has been underway over the last several years, it is particularly challenging to be able to bridge the gap between pure academic pursuit and affecting real technological contribution through actual deployment. *Scope* This IEEE Communications Magazine special issue (feature topic issue) aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art in research and technology for "Future Internet", and present a holistic view of research challenges and opportunities in the coming Internet era.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CfP: Special Issue on Localization in Mobile Wireless and Sensor Networks Datum: Mon, 29 Nov 2010 17:07:25 +0100 Von: Henk Wymeersch <henkw(a)chalmers.se> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu ************************************************************************************* *** We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CfP. *** ************************************************************************************* Call for Papers Special Issue on Localization in Mobile Wireless and Sensor Networks EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking http://www.hindawi.com/journals/wcn/si/lmsn.html http://downloads.hindawi.com/journals/wcn/si/lmsn.pdf ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------- !! Submissions open till January 1, 2011 !! ------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scope: Accurate localization and tracking of wireless devices is a crucial requirement for many emerging location-aware systems and services. Fields of applications include emergency/medical care, intelligent transportation, location-based billing, environmental monitoring, energy efficient buildings, location-assisted gaming, and social networking. During the last few years, there have been intensive research activities on this topic, and several solutions have been investigated. The main trend today is towards the integration of heterogeneous technologies to ensure global coverage and high accuracy in all possible scenarios, leading to a seamless localization system available anywhere anytime. While satellite-based navigation is well consolidated for open sky scenarios, localization in harsh environments (indoor or urban canyon) is still an open issue that requires complementary wireless networks such as cellular systems, local/personal area networks, ad-hoc or wireless-sensor networks (UWB, ZigBee, RFID, etc.). Indoor positioning is particularly challenging due to severe multipath and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation. In this context, advanced signal processing algorithms must be employed to guarantee positioning robustness, such as NLOS identification and mitigation, fusion of data from different sources, and Bayesian methods to enclose any a priori information (e.g., dynamic models for mobile positioning). An important area of research is that of cooperative localization which is expected to highly improve accuracy and coverage by exploiting all the available measurements exchanged on a peer-to-peer basis; efficient protocols/procedures have to be designed to minimize communication overheads and energy consumption. Measurement campaigns are fundamental for calibrating signal models, either analytical ones or digital maps for fingerprinting. Analysis of fundamental performance bounds is a valuable tool for benchmarking algorithms and providing guidelines for the design of efficient positioning systems. The objective of this special issue (whose preparation is carried out under the auspices of the EC Network of Excellence in Wireless Communications NEWCOM++) is to gather recent advances, in both signal processing and communications areas, for localization in wireless networks. Papers are solicited on all related aspects, ranging from new algorithms/methodologies, system design and configuration, performance analysis and experimental studies. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Static and dynamic positioning algorithms based on multilateration/angulation, fingerprinting, and range-free solutions - Cooperative localization and distributed systems - MAC protocols for efficient localization - Bayesian location estimation and tracking - Optimization-based localization and tracking - Hybrid techniques (e.g., combining satellite navigation and wireless communication networks) and data fusion (delays, angles, signal strength, ...) - Fundamental limits analysis - Measurement campaigns, experiments, and statistical channel modelling Before submission authors should carefully read over the journal's Author Guidelines, which are located at http://www.hindawi.com/journals/wcn/guidelines.html. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal Manuscript Tracking System at http://mts.hindawi.com/ according to the following timetable: Manuscript Due January 1, 2011 First Round of Reviews March 1, 2011 Publication Date June 1, 2011 Guest Editors: - Monica Nicoli, Dipartimento di Elettronica e Informazione, Politecnico di Milano, Milan, Italy - Sinan Gezici, Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Bilkent University, Ankara, Turkey - Zafer Sahinoglu, Mitsubishi Electric Research Labs, Cambridge, MA, USA - Henk Wymeersch, Department of Signals and Systems, Chalmers University of Technology, Gothenburg, Sweden _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

While WSNs have been a subject of intensive research for about a decade, most research activities to date focus on sensor nodes that are deployed in static, pre-determined locations with sensor readings taken at regular intervals and with packet forwarding that take place in multiple hops to sinks where storage and analysis takes place. The next step for sensor networks is to handle mobility in all possible forms. Thus we need to consider the mobility of sinks, mobility of sensors and of actuators as well as the mobility of the applications and their software. This extension towards represents a recent research subject in sensor networking that opens up a new research opportunities and challenges, and significantly expands the types of applications for which WSNs can be used. This Special Issue therefore aims at identifying the benefits and challenges raised by mobility in WSNs, addressing the state of the art and advances in this particularly promising research area. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): - Sink mobility in Wireless Sensor Networks - Actuator networks - Mobile sensor-actuator networks - Code mobility in Wireless Sensor Networks - Mobile agent-based data aggregation in Wireless Sensor Networks - Mobility issues in underwater Wireless Sensor Networks - Mobility-assisted communication in Wireless Sensor Networks - Topology coverage and connectivity maintenance in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Mobility management in Wireless Sensor Networks - Mobility for maximizing network lifetime in Wireless Sensor Networks - Mobility models for sinks and actuators in Wireless Sensor Networks - MAC protocols and QoS provisioning in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Routing protocols for handling mobility - Distributed algorithms and reasoning in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Data aggregation, fusion and dissemination techniques in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Synchronization and scheduling issues in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Security, trust and privacy in Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Mobile GeoSensor Networks - Simulation, evaluation and validation of Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile elements - Applications, testbeds and deployment experiences Submission: Submitted papers must be written in grammatically correct English and should describe original research which is not published nor currently under review by other journals or conferences.

Fallah <yaserpf(a)berkeley.edu> An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4th IEEE International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular Communications IEEE WiVEC’2011 Sep. 5-6 2011, Hilton Hotel, San Francisco, USA http://www.ieeevtc.org/wivec2011/ Sponsored by the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society (VTS) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wireless vehicular communications has been identified as a key technology for increasing road safety and transport efficiency, and providing Internet access on the move to ensure wireless ubiquitous connectivity. The potential of this technology has been acknowledged with the establishment of ambitious research programs worldwide in Europe, US and Asia. The IEEE Vehicular Technology Society (VTS) currently covers through its areas of interest (Mobile Radio, Transportation Systems and Automotive Electronics) all technical aspects needed to make wireless vehicular communications a reality. As a result, the IEEE VTS society decided to establish a technical symposium on wireless vehicular communications co-located with the reputed IEEE VTC conferences. The IEEE International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular Communications (WiVEC) will cover all vehicular wireless communications aspects of Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V), Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) and Vehicle-to-Person (V2P) communications, including implications on transport efficiency and safety, implications on automotive electronics, liability issues, standardizations efforts and spectrum assignment. After the past successful WiVEC editions in 2007, 2008, and 2010, the fourth IEEE WiVEC symposium will be co-located with the 74th IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference 2011 Fall, and will take place at the Hilton Hotel in San Francisco on the 5th and 6th of September 2011. Combined registrations packages will be offered for WiVEC and VTC events. All accepted papers (full length and demo papers) will be included in the VTC 2011-Fall conference proceedings and will be published on the IEEE Xplore database. Note: VTC Fall editions are traditionally located in North America, while VTC Spring is located in other areas of the world. Since WiVEC was originally launched co-located with VTC Fall editions, the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society decided that WiVEC would take place every year and a half in order to ensure that the conference is alternatively co-located with VTC Fall and Spring editions. This resulted in that there was no WiVEC edition in 2009. Topics of Interest ------------------ The WiVEC Symposium seeks original papers - not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal - in the area of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), and vehicle-to-person (V2P) wireless communications. Vehicular communication areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * RF technologies, antenna design, physical layer and propagation models * Radio resource management and interference management * Spectrum assignment and EMC regulations * Vehicular Networking Architectures * Networking protocols (including ad-hoc communication, routing, geocasting, etc.) and their evaluation * Data aggregation and dissemination strategies * Simulation of Vehicular Communication Systems * Scalability issues in vehicular networks. * QoS and cross-layer optimization design * Security, liability and privacy * Testbeds, testing support, and field testing results * Interworking with sensor network technologies * In-car electronics and embedded integration of wireless vehicular communications * Roadside infrastructure * Mobility management, mobility and vehicle traffic models * Digital maps and location technologies * Human-Machine Interface * Applications (eCall, eTolling, traffic information systems, safety applications, wireless diagnosis, etc.) * Standards development, business models, policies * Assessment of impact on transport efficiency and safety Submissions ----------- Authors are encouraged to submit full length papers (maximum 5 pages) or demo papers (maximum 2 pages) following the submission guidelines provided at http://www.ieeevtc.org/wivec2011/ Submission website: http://wivec2011.trackchair.com Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published by the IEEE and will be included in the IEEE Xplore digital library.

Fwd: [Tccc] CFP: International Workshop on Federated Wireless Sensor Systems (FedSenS)

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: International Workshop on Federated Wireless Sensor Systems (FedSenS) Von: "Kemal Akkaya" <kemal(a)cs.siu.edu> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu CC: ************************************************************************* International Workshop on Federated Wireless Sensor Systems (FedSenS) in conjunction with The International Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing Conference (IWCMC 2011) July 5-8, 2011 Bahcesehir University, Istanbul, Turkey ************************************************************************* Call for Papers --------------- Wireless sensor networks (WSN) can eliminate/reduce human intervention and provide fully-automated data gathering systems for numerous applications. However, WSNs may operate in inhospitable environments and become prone to sensor failures which not only can degrade the quality of coverage but also disrupt the data traffic. To address such a problem, most approaches in the literature deploy redundant nodes during network setup and reconfigure the network topology to establish alternate data paths. However, sometimes the network suffers a large scale damage that involves many nodes and would thus create multiple disjoint partitions. For these cases, a provisioned approach for tolerating occasional failures at the network design level will not be effective. A similar scenario happens when an application can be leveraged by engaging a number of standalone WSNs. For example, the disaster response may involve collaboration among multiple governmental agencies and may need to combine the services of their autonomously-operating WSNs in the search-and-rescue process. Connecting such multiple WSNs or partitions of a damaged WSN is referred to as federation and these networks are called Federated Wireless Sensor Systems (FedSenS). The purpose of this workshop is to establish a platform to exchange ideas among researchers for creation, operation and management of FedSenS involving various heterogeneous sensor and gateway nodes. Topics of Interest Original, unpublished and unsubmitted work is sought in terms of algorithms, techniques, architectures, position papers, visionary approaches and modeling to deploy and maintain FedSenS. The workshop program invites papers on various aspects of the FedSenS including, but not limited to, the following: Self-federation using existing resources and node mobility Federation through relay node placement Distributed technique for detecting network partitioning Area coverage and network connectivity trade-offs Service oriented federation models Delay-constrained reliable data communication in FedSenS Topology control for improved QoS (i.e., delay or reliability) Sensor data correlation and fusion in FedSenS Reliable federated storage and querying of sensor data Handling uncertainties through federation Interoperability issues Security and privacy issues in data sharing Military and civilian security applications for FedSenS Performance evaluation and testbeds for FedSenS Important Dates Paper Submission Deadline: Dec. 15th, 2010 Notification of Acceptance: March 15th, 2011 Registration & Camera-Ready Paper Due: April 1st, 2011 Submission Instructions Please submit papers electronically (as PDF files) using EDAS: http://edas.info/N9425 Submitted papers must not exceed 6 pages with 10pt or larger font size in standard IEEE Transactions double-column format including text, figures and references, templates: http://www.ieee.org/publications_standards/publications/authors/authors_jou… Please use US letter (8.5 x 11 inches) page size.

Best Nicola and Ruben =============================================================== The Third Workshop on ns-3 March 25th, 2010 Barcelona, Spain http://www.wns3.org/2011/ =============================================================== The Workshop on ns-3 (WNS3) is a one day workshop held in conjunction with the Fourth International Conference on Simulation Tools and Techniques (SIMUTools 2011). The workshop will take place on March 25th, 2010, in Barcelona, Spain. The objective of the workshop is to gather ns-3 users and developers, together with networking simulation practitioners and users and developers of other network simulation tools, to discuss about the ns-3 simulator and related activities. CALL FOR PAPERS After two successful editions, which gathered users and developers for highly interactive and lively discussions but without a formal publication track, this year the workshop will feature a peer-reviewed paper track, thus allowing presenters to get formal credit for their contribution. Papers will be available in the digital library collection arranged by the main conference track (more details to be provided at a later date). Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: * new models, devices, protocols and applications for ns-3 * frameworks for the definition and automation of ns-3 simulations * post-processing and statistical analysis tools for ns-3 * speed and scalability issues for ns-3 * validation of ns-3 models * credibility and reproducibility issues for ns-3 simulations * integration of ns-3 with testbeds, emulators, and other simulators or tools * real code integration with ns-3 As a general rule, papers presenting enhancements to ns-3 and/or innovative ways of using ns-3 that could be beneficial to the ns-3 community are considered to be within the scope of the workshop. Papers that just present simulation results obtained without any significant modification to the ns-3 simulator will be considered out of scope and rejected. Please do not hesitate to contact the workshop chairs if you have any question regarding the scope of your submission. Important dates: Submission deadline : November 24, 2010 Notification of acceptance : January 19, 2011 Camera-ready deadline : February 8, 2011 Paper Submission Guidelines: Papers must be written in English and must not exceed 8 pages. Authors should submit papers through EasyChair (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wns3) in PDF format, complying with the ACM conference proceedings format. Submitted papers must not have been submitted for review or published (partially or completely) elsewhere. Every paper will be peer-reviewed. Papers will be accepted based on relevance, originality and amount of the contribution, as well as quality of the writing and presentation. At least one author of each accepted paper must register and present the work at the conference. Failure to do so will result in the paper not being published in the conference proceedings and in the digital libraries. The copyright policy that will be used for accepted papers will be posted as part of the author's kit at a future date. SHORT TALKS AND DEMONSTRATIONS In addition to the regular paper track, WNS3 will also feature sessions dedicated to short talks and demonstrations not to be published on the conference proceedings. The aim is to foster interactive discussions on work in progress, new problem statements and ideas for future development related to ns-3. More details will be announced at a future date (the submission date will be closer to the workshop date). NS-3 DEVELOPERS' MEETING In addition, the ns-3 developers' meeting will be co-located with WNS3, either on Thursday, March 24th or Saturday, March 26th. More details will be announced in the future. _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: CALL FOR POSITION PAPERS PECCS 2011 - Int'l Conf. on Pervasive and Embedded Computing and Communication Systems Datum: Mon, 22 Nov 2010 06:09:53 -0500 Von: PECCS Secretariat <postmaster13(a)303media.net> Antwort an: peccs.secretariat(a)insticc.org <peccs.secretariat(a)insticc.org> An: wolf(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de Dear Lars Wolf, Let me kindly inform you that the Int'l Conf. on Pervasive and Embedded Computing and Communication Systems (PECCS - http://www.peccs.org/) is now welcoming the submission of position papers (deadline set for next January 3). PECCS will be held next year in Algarve, Portugal, on March 5-7. A position paper presents an arguable opinion about an issue. The goal of a position paper is to convince the audience that your opinion is valid and worth listening to, without the need to present completed research work and/or validated results. It is, nevertheless, important to support your argument with evidence to ensure the validity of your claims. A position paper may be a short report and discussion of ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures or results of scientific research (bibliographic, experimental, theoretical, or other) focused on one of the conference topic areas. The acceptance of a position paper is restricted to the categories of "short paper" or "poster", i.e. a position paper is not a candidate to acceptance as "full paper". EDRP PECCS is sponsored by INSTICC and held in collaboration with UPM (Universidad Politecnica de Madrid) and in cooperation with WfMC (Workflow Management Coalition),IEICE (Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers) and IEICE SWIM (IEICE Special Interest Group on Software Interprise Modelling). The conference will include four Keynote Lectures delivered by distinguished world-class researchers: Dr. Norbert Streitz (Smart Future Initiative, Germany), Prof. Bernhard Rinner (Klagenfurt University, Austria), Prof. Lech Jozwiak (Eindhoven University of Technology / Euromicro, The Netherlands) and Prof. Anind K. Dey (Carnegie Mellon University, U.S.A.). The Program Committee (check the website for a detailed list) includes internationally distinguished experts on the conference topic areas. Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support. A short list of presented papers will be selected for publication of extended and revised versions in a special issue of the 'IET Software' Journal. The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index, INSPEC, DBLP and EI. Best paper awards will be bestowed at the conference closing session. All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SciTePress Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/). PECCS's website - http://www.peccs.org - has all the details on the conference structure and its main topic areas.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [KuVS ELG] Fwd: SEAMS 2011: Third Call for Papers Von: "Kurt Geihs" <geihs(a)uni-kassel.de> An: cfp(a)vs.uni-kassel.de,"Mailing List der GI FG 3.3.1 "Kommunikation und Verteilte Systeme"" <KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE>,"ELG KUVS" <elg(a)kuvs.de> CC: CALL FOR PAPERS 6th International Symposium on Software Engineering for Adaptive and Self-Managing Systems (SEAMS 2011) (Sponsored by ACM SIGSOFT and IEEE TCSE) Waikiki, Honolulu, USA 23-24 May 2011 http://2011.seams-symposia.org/ THEME An increasingly important requirement for a software-based system is the ability to self-manage by adapting itself at run time to handle changing user needs, system intrusions or faults, a changing operational environment, and resource variability. Such a system must configure and reconfigure itself, augment its functionality, continually optimize itself, protect itself, and recover itself, while keeping its complexity hidden from the user. The topic of self-adaptive and self-managing systems has been studied in a large number of specific areas, including software architectures, fault-tolerant computing, robotics, control systems, programming languages, and biologically-inspired computing. The objective of this symposium is to bring together researchers and practitioners from many of these diverse areas to engage in stimulating dialogue regarding the fundamental principles, state of the art, and critical challenges of self-adaptive and self-managing systems. Specifically, we intend to focus on the software engineering aspects, including the methods, architectures, algorithms, techniques, and tools that can be used to support dynamic adaptive behavior that includes self-adaptive, self-managing, self-healing, self-optimizing, and self-configuring, and autonomic software. TOPICS OF INTEREST We are interested in submissions from both industry and academia on all topics related to this important area. These include, but are not limited to: - formal notations for modeling and analyzing software self-adaptation - programming language support for self-adaptation - reuse support for self-adaptive systems (e.g., patterns, designs, code, etc.) - design and architectural support for the self-adaptation of software - algorithms for software self-adaptation - integration mechanisms for self-adaptive systems - evaluation and assurance for self-* systems (e.g., run-time verification) - modeling and analysis of adaptive systems (e.g., run-time models, cost-benefit analysis, architectural styles and patterns, requirements) - decision-making strategies for self-adaptive and self-organizing systems - support for run-time monitoring (for requirements, design, performance, etc.) - model problems and exemplars The following application areas are of particular interest: - mobile computing - dependable computing - autonomous robotics - adaptable user interfaces - service-oriented systems - autonomic computing PAPER SUBMISSION DETAILS We are soliciting three types of papers: research papers and experience reports (up to 10 pages, ACM SIG Proceedings Format) and position papers for new ideas (up to 6 pages, ACM SIG Proceedings Format). Research papers should clearly describe the technical contribution and how the work has been validated. Experience reports should describe how an existing technique has been applied to real-world examples, including lessons learned from the experience. New idea papers provide an opportunity to describe novel and promising ideas and/or techniques that might not have been fully validated. All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three program committee members. Papers must not have been previously published or concurrently submitted elsewhere. The accepted papers will appear in the symposium proceedings that will be published as ACM conference proceedings.
