-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Cost290] U-NET 2010: CFP for the Workshop on User-provided Networking (collocated with Globecom 2010) Datum: Fri, 23 Apr 2010 15:43:13 +0100 Von: Paulo Mendes <pmendes(a)inescporto.pt> An: cost290(a)cs.tut.fi (Appologies if you get this twice) INESC Porto is delighted to invite you to attend and participate in the second edition of the workshop on User-provided Networking (U-NET 2010). The second edition is co-located with IEEE GLOBECOM 2010, and will take place in Miami,USA, December 6th 2010. The workshop encompasses peer-review paper submission and a discussion panel with representatives from Ericsson Research USA, Huawei Research Germany and University College of London. Further details below. Dates * Paper submissions due: July 2nd 2010 * Paper accept notifications: August 13th 2010 * Camera ready due: August 31st 2010 URL:http://ian.inescporto.pt/unet2010/ *Motivation* Wireless technologies are heavily being used as last-hop of fixed networks, as well as starting to be applied to the backhaul. Such flexibility, inherent to wireless technologies, is giving rise to new types of networks which are spread by means of the end-user. Their potential is not explored in terms of new Internet horizons, potential business opportunities, nor in terms of social interaction: user-centric wireless networking models, where cooperation is the key topic, can contribute to the intensification of the phenomenon that is today the core of the so-called Web2.0. The second edition of the U-NET workshop aims at promoting a debate on opportunities and challenges related with user-provided networks, both in technical and in business terms. Such debate is highly relevant as of today since user-provided networking seems to have the potential to provide a paradigm shift in Internet communication models, given that: i) such novel functionality allows local-loop networks to operate in a completely autonomic way; ii) the end-user becomes a provider of Internet services (e.g. connectivity) based upon cooperation incentives or rewards, as well as based upon his/her own mobility patterns and social behavior. The workshop program will include presentations of peer-reviewed papers and a discussion panel with guests from industry and academia. We envision U-NET as a forum aiming to ignite a debate concerning technical challenges and impact (negatively or positively) that user-provided networking may have on Internet communication models. *Topics* Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Modeling user incentives * Impact on Internet design * UPN challenges and opportunities for access providers * Trust models, incentives to share broadband access * Social mobility modelling * User-centric mobility management * Self-organization * Wireless cooperation *Organization* Program Committee Organizers Paulo Mendes INESC Porto, Portugal Olivier Marcé Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs, France Rute Sofia (TPC Chair) INESC Porto, Portugal Technical Program Committee (tentative): Rute Sofia INESC Porto, Portugal André Zúquete University of Aveiro, Portugal Vassilis Kostakos University of Madeira, Portugal Jon Crowcroft University of Cambridge, United Kingdom Cecilia Mascolo University of Cambridge, United Kingdom Eiko Yoneki University of Cambridge, United Kingdom Dirk Trossen University of Cambridge, United Kingdom Prosper Chemouil France Telecom, France Martin May Thomson Paris Research Laboratory, France Karen Sollins MIT, USA Lixia Zhang UCLA, USA James Kempf Ericsson Research, USA Roch Guerin Pennsylvania University, USA Shivendra Panwar Polytechnic Institute of New York University, USA George Polyzos Athens University of Economics and Business, Greece Maria Papadopouli FORTH/University of Creete, Greece Anand Prasad NEC, Japan Gunnar Karlsson KTH, Sweden Marcus Brunner NEC, Germany Petri Mähönen RWTH Aachen University, Germany Pan Hui Deutsche Telekom Laboratories, Germany Regards, Paulo Mendes, Olivier Marcé and Rute Sofia, U-NET'10 Organization Chairs -- ------------------------------------------ Paulo Mendes, Ph.D Area Leader, Internet Architectures and Networking Telecommunication and Multimedia Unit INESC Porto Tel. +351 22 209 4264 Fax. +351 22 209 4050 http://ian.inescporto.pt _______________________________________________ Cost290 mailing list Cost290(a)cs.tut.fi https://mailman.cs.tut.fi/mailman/listinfo/cost290

Such a network consists of many small sensor nodes with sensing, computing, communicating, and control capabilities. The wireless sensor networks have a broad spectrum applications ranging from wild life monitoring, battlefield surveillance, to border control and disaster relief, and have attracted significant interests from both academy and industry. A wireless sensor node generally has limited communication and computation capabilities, as well as severely-constrained power supplies, and the networks often operate in harsh unattended environments. Successful design and deployment of wireless sensor networks thus call for technology advances and integrations in diverse fields, including embedded hardware design, data processing, and wireless communications and networking across all layers. One of the key challenges in WSNs is to develop sustainable and scalable system that achieves longer network lifetime. Nodes capable of harvesting environmental energy have been designed and used in many WSN systems. The benefits of using rechargeable batteries by harvesting environmental energy to prolong sensor network lifetime have been well recognized. This special issue aims to summarize the latest development of hardware and software for WSNs, as well as deployment experiences. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: ? Novel transport, network, and MAC protocol design ? Smart in-network processing and control ? Disruption-tolerant/opportunistic mobile sensor networking ? Cross layer design and optimization, duty cycle management ? Channel and network modeling and performance evaluation ? Measurements and experience from experimental systems and test-beds ? New and novel methods for harvesting environment energy ? Hardware design ? Novel applications and architectures We solicit original unpublished research papers only. Papers previously published in conference/workshop proceedings can be considered, but should be substantially extended.

21 Apr '10

Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this Call-for-Papers __________________________________________________________________ Call for Papers: 4th Workshop on Adaptive and DependAble Mobile Ubiquitous Systems ADAMUS 2010 In conjunction with the ACM International Conference on Pervasive Services (ICPS'10), to be held in Berlin, Germany, July 13-16, 2010 ICPS '10 web site : http://www.dai-labor.de/icps/ ADAMUS web site : http://www.adamus.ua.ac.be/ ADAMUS 2010 Best Papers will be invited to extend for possible publication in a special issue of the International Journal of Adaptive, Resilient, and Autonomic Systems (IJARAS, www.igi-global.com/IJARAS) WORKSHOP SCOPE __________________________________________________________________ The vision of mobile and ubiquitous systems is becoming a reality thanks to the recent advances in wireless communication and device miniaturization. The wide-spread industrial uptake of these sy- stems is however compromised by the abrupt changes and challenging dependability requirements imposed by the highly error-prone and heterogeneous mobile provisioning environment. To overcome the intrinsic limitations of mobile devices and envi- ronments, a variety of research studies have produced supporting methods, proof-of-concept prototypes, and disciplines. However, it is still unclear whether current solutions can satisfy the chal- lenging adaptability and dependability requirements of the emer- ging mobile ubiquitous services, such as mobile social networks, smart urban mobility, wireless control of robots, and healthcare. The ambition and mission of ADAMUS is to put on the foreground all above issues and to foster the exchange of ideas and lively discussion in order: to propose mechanisms to model, design, and develop mobile ubiquitous systems; to devise conceptual models and paradigms for change tolerance; to provide analytical and simula- tion tools to measure system ability to withstand faults and to optimally re-adjust to new environments; to develop scalable, maintainable, cost-effective middleware infrastructures able to support and ease the development of adaptive and dependable mobile ubiquitous services. Building on the success of the last three editions, ADAMUS 2010 aims at serving as a meeting ground and common platform of discus- sion for research and industrial bodies in the field of adaptive and dependable mobile ubiquitous systems. Researchers and practitioners are encouraged to participate with high quality papers able to identify open issues, to discuss the limits and/or advantages of existing solutions, or to propose ori- ginal and innovative techniques for adaptive and dependable appli- cations over mobile environments. The main topics of the Workshop include, but are not limited to the following: - Dependability & adaptation requirements, and open issues for mobile ubiquitous systems; - Design principles, models, and techniques for realizing dependa- ble and adaptive mobile ubiquitous systems; - Context data provisioning and modelling, and context-based in- frastructures; - Context-aware service adaptation for mobile clients; - Frameworks and techniques enabling advanced/demanding applica- tions on mobile ubiquitous systems; - Human-machine interaction and usability; - Multi-device and highly heterogeneous ubiquitous systems; - Cross-layer adaptation techniques; - End-to-end approaches to the quality of experience of mobile services; - Autonomous systems for adaptation and dependability; - Mobile-enabled middleware architectures and mechanisms for heterogeneous wireless networks; - Dependability and scalability of web technologies to ubiquitous systems; - Architectures for resource and network monitoring and adaptation to networks conditions; - Dependability measurement of mobile systems and services; - Experience on real-world applications or prototypes of mobile ubiquitous systems.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: ACM VANET 2010 Datum: Tue, 20 Apr 2010 20:27:59 -0700 (PDT) Von: Fan Bai <fan_bai(a)yahoo.com> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu ======================== ACM VANET 2010 Vehicle to Vehicle -- Vehicle to Roadside -- Vehicle to Internet The Seventh ACM International Workshop on VehiculAr Inter-NETworking In conjunction with ACM MobiCom 2010 Date: September 24, 2010 Chicago, IL, USA Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE http://winlab.rutgers.edu/~fanbai/vanet2010/ 　 Important Dates: Paper Submission Deadline: April 23, 2010 Notification of Acceptance: June 25, 2010 Camera-Ready Deadline: July 15, 2010 The goal of this workshop is to present and discuss recent advances in the development of vehicular inter-networking (VANET) technologies. Apart from new and original technical research results, this year we welcome papers on organizational and economic models. Based on short- and medium-range communication as well as on cellular systems, vehicular inter- networking will enable vehicular safety applications (including collision avoidance and safety warnings), efficiency applications (e.g.real-time traffic congestion and routing information) and other commercial or public authority applications (high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, and many others). The creation of high-performance, highly reliable, highly scalable, secure, and privacy-preserving VANET technologies presents an extraordinary challenge for the wireless research community. Clearly, the specificity of vehicular inter-networking in terms of mobility behavior, applications scenarios, and application requirements makes VANET research an exciting and demanding application- and purpose-driven sub-discipline of wireless networking. Furthermore, VANET present a very active field of research, development, standardization, and field trials. Throughout the world, there are many national and international projects in government, industry, and academia devoted to VANET. These include research programs like the ones on cooperative systems within the eSafety framework of the European Union, the Intellidrive initiative in the US, Smartway, DSSS (Driving Safety Support System) and ASV (Advanced Safety Vehicle) in Japan, simTD in Germany and SCOREF in France. Standardization is well under way with the activities worldwide in ISO TC204 and IEEE (802.11p and 1609.x), SAE J2735 in the US, ETSI TC ITS and CEN WG278 in Europe and ARIB T-75 in Japan. Authors are invited to submit papers presenting new research related to the theory or practice of vehicular inter-networking (VANET). All submissions must describe original research results, not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Channel modeling - Modulation and coding - Power control and scalability issues - Medium access control protocols - Multi-channel organization and operation - Communication protocol design - Safety, efficiency and commercial applications - Vehicle-to-vehicle/roadside/Internet communication - Simulation frameworks - Field operational testing - Test methodologies - Impact assessment - Network management - Security issues and countermeasures - Privacy issues - Organisational and economic models 　 Submission Instructions All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Papers must be in PDF format, no longer than 10 pages, use the ACM SIG Proceedings Templates (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates) and must fit properly on US Letter-sized paper (8.5 inch x 11 inch) with reasonable margins. Submitted papers will be judged based on their quality through a double-blind review process, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. We also encourage the submission of position papers with a maximum length of 6 pages (following the ACM SIG Proceedings Templates above). Position papers will generally include preliminary results and are expected to describe highly original ideas, discuss new directions, or generate insightful discussion at the workshop. Position papers can be a good way to obtain early feedback before submitting complete work to highly selective venues such as ACM MobiCom. Detailed instructions for paper submission will be posted on the VANET 2010 web page at: http://winlab.rutgers.edu/~fanbai/vanet2010/. 　 Organizing Committee General Co-Chairs: Timo Kosch, BMW, Germany Andre Weimerskirch, escrypt Inc., USA Technical Program Co-Chairs: Marc Torrent-Moreno, Barcelona Digital Centre Tecnològic, Spain Marco Gruteser, Rutgers University, USA Publicity Chair: Fan Bai, General Motors Research, USA 　 Technical Program Committee Fan Bai, General Motors Research, USA Eylem Ekici, Ohio State University, USA Tamer ElBatt, Nile University, Egypt Andreas Festag, NEC Europe Ltd, Germany Hannes Hartenstein, University of Karlsruhe, Germany Daniel Jiang, Mercedes-Benz Research & Development North America,Inc., USA Frank Kargl, University of Twente, The Netherlands Timo Kosch, BMW, Germany P.

Cyber-physical systems are tight integrations of computation, networking, and physical objects, in which embedded devices are networked to sense, monitor and control the physical world. It is believed that CPS will transform how we interact with the physical world just like the Internet transformed how we interact with one another. In particular, there is a trend to build CPS upon wireless and mobile networks as a consequence of unprecedented proliferation of these technologies in recent years. In addition to wireless sensors and actuators, the number of mobile devices that can support wirelessly networked cyber-physical applications has exploded. Some usual examples include smartphones, PDAs, autonomous robots, wearable computers, among others. Ubiquitous applications and services enabled by mobile CPS are opening up great opportunities for improving the quality of our daily life. To fully explore the potential of mobile CPS, however, significant challenges are yet to be overcome. MobiCPS 2010 is an international forum for researchers and practitioners to present innovative ideas and results on all aspects of mobile cyber-physical systems, including theoretical foundations, techniques and methods, tools and platforms, prototypes, and practical applications. Besides research papers, the workshop will feature Invited Talks and a Panel Discussion session. The workshop will be held in Xi'an, China in October 2010, in conjunction with the 7th International Conference on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Computing (UIC2010) (http://www.nwpu.edu.cn/uic2010/). Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Theoretical foundations of CPS - Modeling and analysis of cyber-physical interaction - Sensing and actuation policies - Distributed computing and control - Architectures, design methodologies and tools for mobile CPS - Mobile devices and embedded software platforms for cyber-physical computing - Mobile cyber-physical applications and services - Energy-efficient (green) computing and communications - Wireless networking and mobile communications - Wireless sensor networks - Mobile and participatory sensing - Location-based services - Internet of things - Information consensus - Trust, security, and privacy - Validation, testing, and certification - Prototypes, testbeds, practical experiences, and case studies - Emerging applications in healthcare, transportation, automation, environment, etc. IMPORTANT DATES --------------- Paper submissions due: 30 May 2010 Notification of acceptance: 15 July 2010 Camera ready version due: 30 July 2010 Workshop date: TBA SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ----------------------- Authors are invited to submit original papers that must not have been submitted to or published in any other workshop, conference, or journal.

INTRODUCTION Computing and communication systems play key roles in modern IT infrastructure, affecting every aspect of life, including services related to health, banking, commerce, defense, education and entertainment. It has been viewed that there are tremendously increasing demands for computing, communication and storage systems since last decades. To fulfill such requirements, modern IT infrastructures have been extended and scaled, which brings various "green" related issues, such as energy consumption, heat dissemination, greenhouse emission and resource total cost of ownership. To make the fully efficient use of computing and communication systems and reduce their environmental and social impact, green computing and communication research has increasingly become a hot topic of interest for the computer research and industry. The study of green computing and communication attempts to alleviate this problem by delivering both high performance and reduced power consumption, effectively maximizing total system efficiency.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Cost290] Elsevier SI cfp: Cross-Layer Design in Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks Datum: Sat, 17 Apr 2010 19:23:47 +0300 Von: Yevgeni Koucheryavy <yk(a)cs.tut.fi> An: cost290(a)cs.tut.fi Call for Papers Special Issue of Ad Hoc Networks (Elsevier) on Cross-Layer Design in Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks For well over a decade, the international community has invested significant effort conducting research on ad hoc and sensor networks. These networks show promise to support the development of always-on services in next generation mobile systems. Initially, it was natural to inherit the traditional layered network architecture in designing systems and services. More recently, the need to support high performance applications while coping with the limited node capabilities highlights the necessity of cross-layer design in these networks. Cross-layer design offers new opportunities to exploit the potential offered by joint optimization of design parameters, satisfy QoS requirements, among others, that cannot be addressed by traditional architecture in a satisfactory manner. However, at the current time, we lack a clear understanding of the interactions among the layers, and a comprehensive framework for cross-layer design in the network stack. Scope of Contributions The objective of this special issue is to bring together state-of-the-art research contributions, tutorials, and position papers that address the key aspects of cross layer design in ad hoc and sensor networks. Original manuscripts describing completed and unpublished work not currently under review by any other journal, magazine, or conference are solicited. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Architecture issues for cross-layer design in ad hoc and sensor networks * Standardization issues related to quality-aware cross-layer design * Performance optimization for cross-layer design of ad hoc and sensor networks * Cross-layer design issues for QoS provisioning in ad hoc and sensor networks * Cross-layer strategies in wireless sensor and actuator networks * Application layer adaptation based on cross-layer notifications * Interactions between routing/mobility management and congestion control * Cross-layer optimization for energy, network lifetime, and capacity * Cross-layer error and delay control * Channel access algorithms for cross-layered ad hoc communication networks * Cross-layer design of MIMO systems * Multi-user detection in cross-layer design * Design, implementation and test-bed/experimental results * Software defined radio for ad hoc and sensor networks * Cross-layer design for P2P streaming * Cross-layer design for multimedia systems * Cross layer issues in vehicular networking Important Dates Paper Submission: August 15, 2010 First Round Notification: December 15, 2010 First Round Revision: January 15, 2011 Second Round Notification: February 28, 2011 Final Paper Due: March 15, 2011 Submission Format The submitted manuscripts must be written in English and describe original research which is not published nor currently under review by other journals or conferences.

The proliferation and deployment of radio access networks such as Wireless WANs, Wireless LANs, Wireless PANs, ad hoc networks, and wireless sensor networks with distinguishing characteristics of data rate, coverage range, power, mobility, and prices will clearly lead to a need for seamless and ubiquitous access across these various networks. Such an integrated heterogeneous environment enables a user to access a particular network depending upon the application needs and the types of radio access networks (RANs) available. The heterogeneous multi-hop wireless and mobile networks, on the other hand, provide unlimited mobility and greater flexibility but introduce a number of challenges due to dynamic network topology. The design of efficient and scalable protocols for existing multi-hop wireless and mobile networks such as wireless and mobile ad hoc networks continue to pose challenges at all the layers of networking stack. Therefore, it is necessary to aim at heterogeneous architectures and services that together provide seamless integration of single-hop as well as multi-hop mobile ad hoc networks.

These nodes are deeply embedded into the physical surroundings, and gather and process information such as temperature, humidity, light characteristics, seismic activities or images and sound samples from the physical world. Networked systems of such sensors are expected to be used in a variety of applications including habitat monitoring, precision agriculture, disaster recovery operations, healthcare and supply chain management. Real-world sensor network deployments and prototypic implementations are still not commonplace. However, experiences gained in such deployments are crucial for the sensor network research community. These results are needed to refine assumptions made when designing hardware, software, protocols and mechanisms for sensor networks. This workshop aims at bringing together researchers from academia and industry to showcase their work and obtain feedback. We expect the workshop to act as a forum for the sensor network research community to discuss open issues, novel solutions and the future development of wireless sensor networks in general. We encourage contributions describing innovative work in the realm of wireless sensor networks. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Experiences from real-world sensor network deployment and applications Innovative sensor network applications Participatory sensing Middleware support for sensor networks Programming and debugging sensor networks Security, availability and dependability issues in sensor networks Experiences with new sensor hardware Practical problems in implementing localization and time synchronization Experiences with communication protocols Practical medium access control protocols (MACs) Topology control and routing protocols in existing sensor network deployments Fault-tolerance and troubleshooting sensor networks Antenna design and experiences with signal propagation Experiences regarding energy management and network lifetime Configuration and installation support Management of large-scale sensor networks Interconnection between IP and sensor networks Submitted papers will be reviewed by three independent experts in the field. Proceedings of the workshop will be published together with those of IEEE LCN, and will be available in digital format from the IEEE Explore Digital Library. SUBMISSION: FULL PAPERS: Authors are invited to submit original unpublished work, not currently under review by another conference, workshop or journal.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] Call for papers: Green communications and networking Datum: Mon, 12 Apr 2010 12:52:44 +0000 Von: Rupal Malde <rupal.malde(a)hotmail.co.uk> An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> Call for Papers Elsevier Journal of Optical Switching and Networking (OSN) Special Issue on Green Communications and Networking Responsible use of energy has become a crucial issue in large networks and information systems in general in the last few years. Energy efficiency is now a critical item in the list of performance metrics of networking equipment and networked systems. Understanding and economizing energy use has emerged as a high-impact research area in networking system of all kinds. Recent studies suggest that the core network expends the largest fraction of the energy consumed by a large network system, and network energy expenditure can be a significant part of planetary computing and communication, contrary to earlier belief that the bulk of energy expenditure is at end-systems or at most the edge network. The role of interaction between end-systems and the network has also been recognized in achieving better energy economy. The OSN special issue on Green Communications and Networking will archive timely research in this area particularly relevant to optical networking design and technologies. The SI may also publish tutorial material suitable for introducing active researchers to different aspects of this new research area. Tutorials articles will be expected to address a broad range of issues in order to be considered suitable. Topics of interest for original research contributions include, but are not limited to: • Metrics of energy-efficiency in optical networks and equipment • Measurements of energy expenditures, data and methodology • Energy efficient devices and designs • Hardware, architectural, and protocol support issues for energy economy • Network design (topology, grooming, placement, wavelength assignment, traffic engg., etc.) in support of energy economy • Energy issues in PONs • Energy efficient interaction of network with smartgrids of clouds • Energy-optimal split between optical and electronic layers (e.g., IP-Ethernet-WDM) • Energy Efficient Optical Ethernet • Optical Switching in Routers and Switches for Reducing Power Consumption • Hierarchical techniques of energy efficiency • Energy awareness in network equipment and operations • Business models of energy-efficient optical networks • Cooperation between network and endpoints for improving energy efficiency • Optical Networking for Green Datacenters All submissions must be original work not previously published or currently under review by any other journal. Partial overlap with previously published conference or workshop papers is acceptable, but must be disclosed at the time of submission. Submission, review, and decision process will use the usual Elsevier OSN portal, accessible through http://ees.elsevier.com/osn/admin/default.asp . During submission, please make sure to select ‘SI: Green Communications’ when you reach the “Article Type” step. More details about the journal in general, and author guidelines, can be found from http://ees.elsevier.com/osn/ .

Other conferences and workshops can appear in the monthly digest. (i.e., don't get excited and send me lots of cfps, and don't panic about an impending flood of cfps.) -neil] ACM HotNets-IX October 20-21, 2010 Monterey, CA http://conferences.sigcomm.org/hotnets/2010/ Call for Papers The Ninth ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in Networks (HotNets-IX) will bring together people with interest in computer networks to engage in a lively debate on the theory and practice of networking. Continuing the HotNets tradition, the workshop will provide a venue for presenting and discussing innovative ideas that have the potential to significantly influence the community. The goal is to promote community-wide discussion of those ideas. We invite researchers and practitioners to submit short position papers describing such ideas. A paper could, for example, expose a new problem, advocate a new approach, re-frame or debunk existing work, report unexpected results from a deployment, or propose new evaluation methodologies. We especially encourage submissions of early-stage work and enticing but unproven ideas. Once fully developed and evaluated, the work may be relevant to conferences such as SIGCOMM, SOSP, SenSys, NSDI, MobiCom, PODC, or Infocom. HotNets takes a broad view of networking research. This view includes new ideas relating to (but not limited to) home and enterprise networks, ISP networks, sensor and personal area networks, wireless and acoustic networks, data center networks, peer-to-peer networks, network architecture, and disruption-tolerant networks. It encompasses all aspects of such networks, including (but not limited to) resource management, economics and evolution, robustness and security, mobility, interactions with applications, energy, measurement and diagnosis, and hardware. Position papers will be selected based on originality, likelihood of spawning insightful discussion at the workshop, and technical merit. Accepted papers will be posted online prior to the workshop and a workshop summary will be published in ACM SIGCOMM's Computer Communication Review (CCR), widely disseminating the ideas discussed at the workshop. Workshop Participation HotNets is an invitation-only workshop. To ensure an interactive atmosphere, attendance will be limited to around 60 people. Invitations will be extended per the following priorities: * one author per accepted paper, any speakers invited by the Program Committee, and the Program and Steering Committees, * co-authors of accepted and submitted papers, preferring students as available travel support allows, and * event-sponsor representatives and additional authors of submitted papers at the discretion of the Program Committee. Submission Instructions Submitted papers must be no longer than 6 pages (10 point font, 1 inch margins). All submissions must be blind: submissions must not indicate the names or affiliations of the authors in the paper. Only electronic submissions in PDF will be accepted. Submissions must be written in English, render without error using standard tools (e.g., Acrobat Reader), and print on US-Letter sized paper. Papers must contain novel ideas and must differ significantly in content from previously published papers and papers under simultaneous submission. Important Dates Abstract registration: July 2, 2010 (11:59pm EDT) Paper submission: July 9, 2010 (11:59pm EDT) Notification of decision: August 27, 2010 Camera-ready submission: September 27, 2010 Workshop dates: October 20-21, 2010 Organizing Committee: General Chairs: Geoff Xie (Naval Postgraduate School) Rob Beverley (Naval Postgraduate School) Program Chairs: Robert Morris (MIT) Bruce Davie (Cisco Systems) Program Committee: Bryan Ford (Yale) Albert Greenberg (Microsoft) Paul Francis (Max Planck Institute) Laurent Mathy (University of Lancaster) Ben Zhao (UC Santa Barbara) Eddie Kohler (UCLA) Vern Paxson (UC Berkeley) John Lockwood (Algo-Logic and Stanford) Ratul Mahajan (Microsoft) --- To unsubscribe from sigcomm-members, send mail to listserv(a)acm.org with contents (not subject): unsubscribe SIGCOMM-MEMBERS from the email address subscribed (no forwarding).

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [ISCC] CFP: Mobimedia 2010 (International Mobile Multimedia Communications Conference) Datum: Wed, 07 Apr 2010 17:48:17 +0200 Von: Jesús Alonso-Zárate <jesus.alonso(a)cttc.es> An: iscc(a)mail.ing.unibo.it Dear colleague, Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. Please note that Extended Versions of Selected Papers submitted to MobiMedia 2010 will be considered for publication in the ACM/Springer Mobile Networks and Applications (MONET) Journal. *************************************************************************** MobiMedia 2010 6th International Mobile Multimedia Communications Conference 6-8 September 2010 - Lisbon, Portugal http://www.mobimedia.org *************************************************************************** IMPORTANT DATES Paper Submission Deadline: April 23rd, 2010 Notification of Acceptance: May 28th, 2010 Submission of camera-ready papers: June 25th, 2010 *************************************************************************** The focus of Mobimedia this year will be on future Internet for green and pervasive media. The promise of a truly pervasive experience is to have the freedom to roam around anywhere and not be bound to a single location, however, the energy required to keep mobile devices connected to the network over extended periods of time quickly dissipates. In fact, energy is a critical resource in the design of wireless networks since wireless devices are usually powered by batteries. From the mobile manufacturer’s perspective the energy consumption problem is critical, not only technically but also taking into account the market expectations from a newly introduced technology. In fact there exists a continuously growing gap between the energy consumption of emerging radio systems and what can be achieved by Battery technology evolution; Scaling and circuit design progress; System level architecture progress; and Thermal and cooling techniques. Without new approaches for energy saving, there is a significant threat that the 4G mobile users will be searching for power outlets rather than network access, and becoming once again bound to a single location. There is added momentum from the European stage for green radio to globally reduce the electromagnetic radiation levels to have a better coexistence of wireless system (less interference) as well as a reduced human exposure to radiation leading to the so called Green Wireless technologies. Hence, there is a clear need for disruptive strategies to address all aspects of power efficiency from the user devices through to the core infrastructure of the network and how these devices and equipment interact with each other. In this framework, Mobimedia will provide an international forum where industry, researchers and academia will be able to interact and exchange experiences, ideas, and research results surrounding all aspects on power saving to envisage a environmentally friendly Internet of the future. Prospective authors are invited to submit original and unpublished technical papers on the following research topics, but not limited to: o Cooperative communications o Cognitive Radio networks o Software Defined Radio approaches o Short-Range Communications o Energy Efficient Radio Resource Management and Routing o QoE Multimedia for Future Internet o P2P Multimedia for autonomic wireless infrastructures. o Energy efficient Reconfigurable Radio Transceivers o Network Coding o Internet of things o Cross-layer and Cross-System optimization strategies for wireless multimedia o User and device location in next generation networks. o Security mechanisms and schemes in Cooperative networks o Resource and Mobility Management in Cooperative Network. o Dynamic Resource Management and bandwidth assignment for multimedia in heterogeneous wireless networks. o IMS for Multimedia services in next generation networks.

Ammari: Hofstra University, NY, USA E-mail: Habib.M.Ammari(a)hofstra.edu <mailto:Habib.M.Ammari@hofstra.edu>, URL: http://people.hofstra.edu/Habib_M_Ammari/ Subject and Purpose of the Workshop We lately witness a tremendous development in the wireless sensor networking (WSN), which make it possible to monitor, unobtrusively and for long periods of time the physical environment and to collect the relevant data. For many applications, the sensor networks cannot operate in complete isolation. There must be a way enabling a monitoring entity or some end-users to gain access to the data produced by the sensor network, and even to interact with a particular sensor mote to activate/deactivate it, read the sensed value instantaneously, fix some inner parameters, make dynamic code loading into the mote, etc. By connecting the sensor network to an existing network infrastructure such as a local-area network, a private intranet, mobile smart networks, and notably the global internet, gaining remote access to the sensor network would be straightforward. However, many questions need answers, and many challenges must be tackled before such interconnection become effective. Suitability of IP standards must be investigated, as well as the connection architecture. Is it more effective to use fixed gateways? Or is it better to employ a dynamic ad hoc mode where all nodes (or several nodes) cooperatively and alternatively act as gateways. By openly connect a sensor network to other networks new vulnerabilities will take place. An intruder would not need to gain physical access to the network anymore, but it might remotely launch attacks. Security is thus a very important aspect that must be considered. Routing, QoS, and interoperability are also important and challenging issues in the new heterogeneous systems. This workshop is a forum for researchers, academics, and industrials to debate the different issues related to the interconnection of wireless sensor networks, and discuss relevant theoretical and practical solutions. Topics Topics of the workshop consist of all aspects related to the interconnection and integration of WSN to other networks, including but not limited to: - Interconnection architecture aspects - Authentication and security issues - Vulnerability, protection, and fault-tolerance of WSN - Quality of Service (QoS) issues in WSN-based integrated networks - Information processing - Routing protocols for cross networks - Network and transport layer protocols for cross networks - Testbeds for integrated networks - Middlewares - Integrated applications and services for cross networks - Sensor tasking, control, and actuation - Distributed query processing - Integration of Body area networks to WLAN and beyond - In-network processing and aggregation - Connectivity & longevity - Location and time services - Integration of sensor networks and web-based services Submission Guidelines and Policy Submitted papers must represent original material that is not currently under review in any other conference or journal, and has not been previously published. Papers are restricted to a maximum length of 6 pages, including text, figures, and references. All papers will be reviewed. Accepted and registered papers will appear in the conference proceedings. At least one author of accepted papers is required to register and attend the workshop to present the paper.
