16 Sep '09

Call For Papers: IEEE Network Magazine "Biologically Inspired Networking" Guest Editors: Dinesh Verma, IBM (dverma(a)us.ibm.com) Pietro Lio, University of Cambridge (pietro.lio(a)cl.cam.ac.uk) Scope: Computer Networks deployed in the field today lack many of the features which are demonstrated in the operation and mechanisms of biological networks. Some examples of features where biological networks have an advantage include their ability to maintain homeostatic environments, adapt rapidly to environmental changes, self-organize, assemble simple structures into complex tasks, autonomous operations, self-replication, protection against attacks of various natures, etc. While computer networking has many features which perform better than any biological system, it is a reasonable proposition that application of biologically inspired techniques to computing systems and networks will improve on the current state of the art in computer networks. This special issue is focused on highlighting approaches for designing computer networks that are biologically inspired, and which show an improvement in some aspect of the current state of computer networking. The goal is to develop techniques that improve the adaptability, scalability and autonomicity of comptuer networks. We welcome papers that provide new architectures and insights, real-world experience in building biological systems, theoretical advances in biological networks, and any other area of bio-inspired improvements to computer networks. Any paper that covers a technology which has a clear connection to a biological system and a demonstrable advantage to computer networks will be considered within scope. We welcome both tutorial type papers, as well as papers describing new research activities. Some of the topics of interest include: Modeling of Biological Networks Evolutionary systems and protocols Biological Inspired Network Architectures Homeostatic Control and its Applications Neural Networks applications to Computer Networks Self-healing systems and protocols Biologically Inspired Security Predator-Prey applications to computer networks Performance evaluation of biologically inspired networks Biologically inspired Network Topologies Manuscript Submission: This special issue will only consider electronic submissions in the format of postscript, PDF, or MS WORD. To submit a paper for consideration, authors should send your paper to one of the guest editors via email. The paper should be included as an email attachment, or the author may provide a URL where the file can be downloaded. Indicate which author is to serve as the primary correspondence contact. Provide a contact list for all of the other authors. Please list affiliations, mailing addresses, phone/fax numbers, and email addresses. We will provide an acknowledgment of receipt of the paper within 24 hours of submission. Schedule: Submission Deadline: November 1, 2009 Acceptance Notification: January 1, 2010 (*) Final Manuscripts: March 1, 2010 Tentative Publication: May 2010 (*) Authors of papers submitted that are judged to fall outside the objectives of this special issue may be notified earlier.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] DWSAN4CIP'09: Deadline 30/9 Datum: Fri, 11 Sep 2009 20:09:45 +0200 Von: Evgeny Osipov <Evgeny.Osipov(a)ltu.se> Organisation: LTU An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> (Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this e-mail.) CALL FOR PAPERS DWSAN4CIP 2009 International Workshop on Dependable Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks for Critical Infrastructure Protection http://www.wsan4cip.eu/dwsan4cip November 10, 2009, Madrid, Spain Organized by EU FP7 project WSAN4CIP OVERVIEW: It is hard to overestimate the role of ICT systems in operational cycles of modern industry and life supporting infrastructures. ICT control systems are used to continuously monitor the state of industrial processes and status of critical infrastructures. Over the last few years Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks (WSAN) technology appeared as an ideal technological building block to improve the reliability and availability of ICTs in critical operational environments. On the other hand WSANs themselves become part of a critical infrastructures and processes. Whenever another layer of complexity is added to a system, this opens new possibilities for system failures, misuse or malicious attacks. The critical prerequisite for WSANs to be adopted in performance critical applications is their dependability, i.e. the ability of a system to deliver specified services to the user. It is, however, by far not trivial to make WSANs dependable for variety of applications in different operation environments and having different performance requirements. For DWSAN workshop we solicit original contributions aiming at achieving dependability of WSAN technology on different layers. Experiences from real-life deployment of dependable WSANs, application dependent WSAN design methodologies, dependable MAC, network and transport protocols, general issues of reliability, security in dependable WSANs are some of the key research topics to be discussed during the workshop. The goal of the workshop is to present high-quality results in the field, and to provide a framework for research collaboration through focused discussions that will designate future research efforts and directions. In this context, the program committee will accept only a limited number of papers that meet the criteria of originality, presentation quality and topic relevance. Workshop Topics Topics of interest to DWSAN 2009 include (but are not limited to) the following: * Real life experience from deployment of wireless sensor networks in critical applications * Methodologies for assessment of performance requirements * Methodologies for systematic design of WSAN communication architecture * Application of control theory for cross-layer optimization of dependable communication protocols for WSAN * Dependable MAC protocols * Dependable routing protocols * Dependable transport protocols * Intelligent energy and QoS management * Fault tolerant middleware for WSANs * Operating systems for dependable WSANs * Security services Proceedings This year DWSAN4CIP offers only Fast Track publication in workshop proceedings. Authors are invited to submit their contributions as a two pages extended abstract in double column IEEE format. Up to 10 best contributions will be invited to submit full papers for publication in electronic workshop proceedings. Revised and extended versions of the most outstanding papers will be suggested for publication in the International Journal of Critical Infrastructure Protection (Elsevier). Important Dates Paper submission: September 30, 2009 Acceptance notification: October 15, 2009 Camera ready: October 30, 2009 _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: 3rd IEEE International Workshop on Opportunistic Networking (WON-10) Datum: Wed, 09 Sep 2009 14:49:28 -0400 Von: Dr. Isaac Woungang <iwoungan(a)scs.ryerson.ca> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu ================================================================== Call for Papers The 3rd IEEE International Workshop on Opportunistic Networking (WON-10) to be held in conjunction with The IEEE 24th International Conference on Advanced Information Networking and Applications (AINA-10), Perth, Australia, April 20-23, 2010 http://nrl.iis.sinica.edu.tw/WON10/ ================================================================== Aims and Scope --------------- With the explosive deployment of mobile wireless devices recently, Opportunistic Networking is becoming an increasingly popular area in networking research, in which the assumption of having end-to-end paths between the source and the destination is relaxed. Such networks fall into the fields of mobile ad-hoc networking (MANET) and delay-tolerant networking (DTN).Opportunistic Networks enable user communication in an environment where disconnection and reconnection are common and link performance is extremely dynamic. They are very suitable to support the situation where network infrastructure has limited coverage and users have "islands of connectivity". By taking advantage of device mobility, information can be stored and forwarded over a wireless link when connection 'opportunities' arise (e.g. an appropriate network contact is met). In this view, traditional Internet connectivity can be considered as a special case of connection opportunity. With numerous emerging applications, Opportunistic Networks allow a huge number of devices to communicate end-to-end without requiring any pre-existing infrastructure and are very suitable to support pervasive networking scenarios. Topics of Interest ----------------- Original papers addressing applications and architecture, systems and protocols design, development and analysis, in all areas related to Opportunistic Networking are solicited. Papers that bring out interesting and novel ideas at an early stage are favored over highly-polish journal-style results. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Advanced technologies for enabling opportunistic communication * Architectures for opportunistic networks * Applications for opportunistic networks * Biological and social models for opportunistic communication * Middleware services in opportunistic networks * Dissemination and replication techniques for opportunistic networks * Network and resource management techniques for opportunistic networks * Trust and cooperation in opportunistic networks * Security issues in opportunistic networks * Transport and reliability issues in opportunistic networks * Routing issues in opportunistic networks * MAC layer issues and physical layer for opportunistic networks * Simulation and modeling of Opportunistic networks * Tools and techniques for designing, analyzing and building opportunistic networks * Opportunistic networks testbeds and measurements Submissions and Proceedings ------------------------------ Authors are invited to submit an electronic version of original, unpublished manuscripts the following website: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=won10 The manuscript should be written in English and follow IEEE two-column format with single-spaced, ten-point font in the text. The maximum manuscript length is six (6) pages including figures and references. All submitted papers will be refereed by reviewers in terms of correctness, originality, technical strength, significance and quality of presentation. The CD proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press and available online through IEEE Xplore. Important Dates --------------- Paper Submission: Nov 01, 2009 Author Notification: Dec 01, 2009 Final Manuscript Due: Jan 15, 2010 Workshop Date: 20 April 2010 General Chair Kun-chan Lan, National Cheng Kung University, Taiwan Program Chair Ling-Jyh Chen, Academia Sinica, Taiwan Isaac Woungang, Ryerson University, Canada Program Committee Members (To be determined) _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

[Tccc] CFP: Multimedia Data Applications in Wireless sensor networks
by Shu, Lei 07 Sep '09

07 Sep '09

CALL FOR PAPERS International Journal of Sensor Networks (IJSNet) http://www.inderscience.com/ijsnet Special Issue on: Multimedia Data Applications in Wireless sensor networks With recent technological advances in communication and computation, new Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) applications are growing. The emergence of low-energy and low-cost multimedia devices, such as microphones and cameras, has stimulated the development of the next generation WSN, known as Wireless Multimedia Sensor Network (WMSN). WMSNs have brought unprecedented potentials especially for applications requiring ubiquitous access to the multimedia contents, such as still images, audio and video streams. The extra sensor capacity and various requirements of multimedia objects in-network processing also pose new and unique challenges. The challenges are crucial about how to energy-efficiently query, process, transfer, and store voluminous multimedia objects since most of the multimedia sensors are operated under limited battery powers. Additionally, relatively slow advancements in battery technologies make the energy constrain the fast progress in WMSNs. This special issue will bring together those leading researchers and developers in fields of data and resource management, distributed storage techniques and energy efficiency to study the particular problems and challenges of wireless multimedia sensor networks. The purpose of the special session is therefore to foster communications between various communities including distributed database management communities, multimedia communication communities and sensor networks communities, and establish a common ground for advanced research and development in Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks. The published papers are expected to present high quality results on state-of-the-art algorithms, novel techniques and real applications associated with Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to: 1. Multimedia in-network processing in WMSN * Distributed source coding in WMSN * Multimedia aggregation and fusion in WMSN * Low-bit rate and energy-efficient multimedia source coding for WMSN 2. WMSN architectures and applications * Scalable and flexible WMSN architecture * WMSN design for supporting heterogeneous applications * Multimedia sensor coverage * Novel WMSN applications * Experimental studies of WMSN * WMSN modelling and performance analysis 3. Emerging WMSN technologies * Hardware platform * Physical layer technologies * Energy harvesting technologies 4. Effective and energy-efficient protocols for WMSN * Real-time and reliable multimedia streaming * Routing and medium access control * Topology control and synchronization protocols * Energy efficient traffic management * QoS provisioning protocols 5.

Nevertheless, many aspects of scalable wireless communications are still open problems and, furthermore, some of the scalable solutions for wireless networks proposed so far are based on ideal assumptions not always justified in the practical applications. The aim of this special issue is to bring together the state-of-the-art research contributions that address the major opportunities and challenges of scalable wireless communication and networking, with emphasis on the design, the analysis and the evaluation of new techniques and novel application scenarios. Topics of Interest: ------------------------------ Original, unpublished contributions addressing application and architectures, systems and protocols design, development and analysis, in all areas related to scalable wireless networks are solicited. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - congestion, scheduling and admission control - MAC and data link algorithms - routing, broadcasting and multicasting protocols - transport-layer protocols - data transportation, dissemination, aggregation, replication and management - resource allocation, discovery and management - context and location-aware services - power-aware architectures, algorithms and protocols design - security and privacy - Quality of Service (QoS) and fairness provisioning - cross-layer design and optimization - information theoretic aspects of large scale wireless networks - innovative modulation and coding techniques - wireless sensor networks - mobile, mesh and vehicular ad hoc networks - opportunism and cooperation for scalable communications - scalable peer-to-peer and delay-tolerant networks - modeling and simulation methodologies for large scale wireless networks - practical issues, prototypes and test beds design to investigate scalability - challenges arising from new technologies (UWB, MIMO, beam forming, Cognitive Radio, etc.) Important dates: ------------------------------ Paper submission due: October 1, 2009 Notification of acceptance: January 15, 2010 Camera-ready version due: March 1, 2010 Submissions: ------------------------------ Authors are invited to submit full papers describing original research, unpublished and not currently under review by another conference or journal.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP : JNSM Special Issue on New Advances on Measurement Based Network Management Datum: Thu, 3 Sep 2009 12:52:32 -0500 Von: Choi, Baek-Young <choiby(a)umkc.edu> An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> Call For Papers: Journal of Network and Systems Management Special Issue on New Advances on Measurement Based Network Management http://www.csee.umkc.edu/jnsm/cfp_dir/cfp_mbnm09.html Network measurement and monitoring play a vital role in the healthy operation of networks of all sizes, and find their applications in essentially all aspects of network management, including network traffic engineering, network capacity planning, billing, network security, network protocol, and algorithm testing. Network measurement and monitoring provide the essential techniques, algorithms, and tools for any informed decision-making process in network management. On the other hand, today's networks are becoming increasingly more heterogeneous in terms of both network technologies and traffic, impacted by various factors including the wide deployment of wireless and sensor networks and the increasing popularity of peer-to-peer applications, network games, and VoIP. In addition, the network speed has been continuously increasing. Network attackers are also becoming more sophisticated in carrying out network attacks, recruiting zombie members, and hiding their true identities. All these developments pose profound challenges and present abounding opportunities in network measurement and monitoring research. In this special issue, we solicit original work in all areas of network measurement and monitoring. In particular, we seek original work on identifying new research and development challenges and developing new techniques and algorithms in measurement based network management. Specific topics include, but are not limited to, the following: * Measurement based billing * Measurement based admission control * Measurement techniques * Large scale network data measurement and characterization studies * Measurement data management * Network measurement of new test-bed * Tools for network performance evaluation * Measurement based network reliability, dependability, and security techniques * Autonomous management platform * Management issues for next generation network Submission Guidelines: Authors are invited to submit high quality and original work that is not under review in any conference or journal.
