[Tccc] CFP IEEE Wireless Communications Magazine Special Issue on DependabilityIssues with Ubiquitous Wireless Access
by Albert Banchs 08 Nov '07

08 Nov '07

We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE Wireless Communications Magazine Special Issue on Dependability Issues with Ubiquitous Wireless Access ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ http://www.comsoc.org/dl/pcm/cfpwireless808.htm +++++++++++++++++++++++++ Manuscript Due: 1 December 2007 +++++++++++++++++++++++++ Recent years have witnessed a proliferation of the number of wireless technologies available to access the Internet. While the emergence of these new technologies can enable truly ubiquitous Internet access, it also raises issues with the dependability of the Internet service delivered to users. Indeed, wireless Internet access is, when compared to traditional wired access solutions, more prone to security attacks and less predictable in terms of the Quality of Service (QoS) experienced by users. This poses serious challenges to the provisioning, in this context, of a dependable Internet service that meets the users’ requirements in terms of security, QoS, reliability and availability, among others. In order to meet the above requirements on dependability, new solutions such as security and QoS mechanisms need to be designed for the wireless access. Several issues need to be addressed in the design of such dependable wireless solutions, including the following: (1) the open nature of radio communications provides serious exposure to security attacks; (2) the limited capacity and shared nature of the wireless medium complicates the provisioning of Quality of Service; (3) inherently unpredictable wireless channel characteristics make it hard to guarantee availability; (4) exploitation of resources due to selfish and malicious behavior is difficult to prevent; (5) the emergence of new paradigms, such as opportunistic spectrum usage and self-organizing networks, promise improvements but introduce new challenges to dependability. This special issue will focus on recent research results on dependability issues with ubiquitous wireless access in the context of wireless technologies including WLAN, cellular and broadcast systems, ad-hoc and mesh networks, among others. Topics of interest include, although are not limited to, the following: * Predictable shared medium access mechanisms * Techniques for identifying and controlling selfish users * Security mechanisms and protocols for the wireless access * Wireless Quality of Service provisioning * Countering Denial-of-service attacks in wireless networks * Metrics for measuring dependability * Privacy-aware dependable operation for wireless networks * Dependable opportunistic spectrum techniques * Dependability in self-organizing networks * Reliable and ubiquitous emergency services * Dependable services for mobile users Articles should be tutorial in nature and should be written in a style comprehensible to readers outside the specialty of the article. All submissions will be reviewed based on technical merit and relevance. Guidelines for prospective authors can be found on-line at http://www.comsoc.org/pubs/pcm/pub_guidelines.html. Please send PDF (preferred), Microsoft Word, or PostScript formatted papers to Albert Banchs (banchs(a)it.uc3m.es) no later than 1 December 2007. Manuscript Due: 1 December 2007 Acceptance Notification: 15 March 2008 Final Revised Manuscript Due: 15 May 2008 Publication: August 2008 Guest Editors: Prof. Albert Banchs, Univ.

[Tccc] CFP: Workshop on Smart Sensing and Situation Awareness in Sensor Networks
by WenZhan Song 08 Nov '07

08 Nov '07

Workshop on Smart Sensing and Situation Awareness in Sensor Networks Behrooz Shirazi and WenZhan Song, Washington State University, USA http://conferences.theiet.org/ie08/workshop_smart_sensing.htm The aim of this workshop is to stimulate research on smart sensing and situation awareness related topics in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Sensor network can be said to be the nerve system of our engineering network world, extracting and transmitting useful and timely information reliably for efficient decision support and quick corrective actions. Examples of end-to-end sensor applications include: cargo monitoring systems in a harbor that check containers in a WSN equipped ship for detecting dangerous chemical substances, locating stowaways, or calculating import duties; environmental monitoring systems, such as volcano monitoring and structure monitoring sensor network, that provides domain scientists high resolution views of environments; transport systems that route traffic using real-time data monitored by sensor-enabled cars; emergency management systems that can detect bushfires; smart home environments that enable remote monitoring of residents, early detection of emergency situations and enhancement of quality of life and safety. However, different applications have different context and mission needs, hence developing and deploying end-to-end applications for sensor networks in a realistic business context remains highly complex. Unlike traditional communication networks, a sensor network is to provide a high degree of visibility into environmental physical processes, not to provide any-to-any communications. Consequently, it requires an end-to-end approach that handles the WSN as a whole rather than as a group of individual nodes. The sensor network design therefore shall be fully context and situation-aware, and target to maximize mission returns with given resource constraints. We seek technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research results. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: Environmental context and situation awareness Resource discovery and management Cross layering and resource awareness (Distributed) compressed sensing and data aggregation Data fusion, storage and management Effective naming and device/service discovery in end-to-end WSNs Failure resilience and fault isolation Sensor network management Overlay and topology management Sensor mobility and heterogeneity, and smart sensor device drivers Localization, time synchronization Security and privacy Integration with back-end systems such as web-based information systems, process control, and enterprise software Sensor network planning, provisioning, calibration and deployment Deployment experience and testbeds Experimental methodology, including measurement, simulation, and emulation infrastructure Analysis of real-world systems and fundamental limits Instructions for Manuscripts Authors are requested to submit a PDF file for their manuscript following the submission guideline available at http://conferences.theiet.org/ie08/author.htm . All manuscripts should be submitted through the conference submission system and choosing the workshop title. The papers should also be emailed to the workshop organizer for reference. All manuscripts should be received by the conference deadline for paper submission which is the 15th of January 2008. For more information please contact: Professor WenZhan Song, songwz(a)wsu.edu, Washington State University, Vancouver WA, USA. _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

[Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS 1st International Workshop on Interoperable Vehicles (IOV 2008) March 26, 2008 Zurich, Switzerland In Cooperation with Internet of Things 2008 http://www.iov2008.org --------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCOPE: For a couple of years, some initial telematics services that inform the driver about current road and traffic conditions are already in the market. With new wireless communication capabilities available like WLAN, WiMAX or UMTS, many additional services become feasible. Therefore, one of the major automotive trends is keeping both the vehicle and the driver seamlessly connected with their environment, providing high-quality traffic related information, increasing active safety and offering passengers high-bandwidth internet connectivity. In the automotive domain, universal connectivity of vehicles in particular enables the implicit sharing of up-to-date traffic- and road related context information. On the one hand, the vehicles require information from the route ahead in order to optimally support the driver. On the other hand, the local knowledge of vehicles which is based on a variety of on-board sensor systems can also contribute to support other (not necessarily automotive) services. In this regard, the workshop aims to establish a forum to bring together research professionals in both academia and industry to address the technical, economic, systems and application issues related to Interoperable Vehicles. The topics of interest include (but not limited to): - In-vehicle knowledge management and knowledge distribution among vehicles - Novel applications for (or based on) connected vehicles - Multi-Channel / Hybrid Connectivity - Network management and scalability - Service discovery and service provisioning - Security and Privacy - Concurrent use of multiple applications via the available channels - Business models for market introduction / Role out strategies -------------- DATE AND PLACE -------------- This workshop will be held on March 26, 2007 in Zurich, at the Conference Hotel of Internet of Things 2008. --------------- IMPORTANT DATES --------------- Paper submission deadline: January 11, 2008 Notification of acceptance: February 9, 2008 Camera Ready Deadline: March 1, 2008 ----------------------- SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ----------------------- Authors are invited to submit full papers presenting new research related to the theory or practice of interoperable vehicles, describing original, research work not published and are not currently under review elsewhere.

JVCIR special issue: "Resource-Aware Adaptive Video Streaming"
by Enrico Magli 07 Nov '07

07 Nov '07

Journal of Visual Communication and Image Representation Special Issue: Resource-Aware Adaptive Video Streaming Modern multimedia applications such as mobile television, movie on demand, IPTV, multiview video, distributed video conferencing, streaming and gaming over wired and wireless networks have stimulated research for new technologies in the area of multimedia architectures, processing, and networking. Current communications networks exhibit a wide range of capabilities, including various architectures, throughputs, quality of service and protocols; interconnection of different networks provides several advantages, but also poses major technical challenges. On the other hand, users employ heterogeneous terminals with a wide range of computational and display capabilities, energy resources, features, accessibilities, and user preferences. The variety of possible scenarios has escalated the need for efficient and effective techniques for streaming and adapting compressed videos in such heterogeneous environments. Considerable amounts of research activities in industry and academia have been devoted to developing the enabling technologies that are needed to make this vision reality. The goal of this special issue is to provide an up-to-date picture of state-of-the-art research in the field of video streaming, emphasizing the two key aspects of adaptation and resource-awareness. In particular, papers are solicited mainly, although not exclusively, in the following areas: Bandwidth and Resource Adaptive Video Streaming - Optimization of energy resources for video streaming - Platform awareness for low-power and embedded devices - Dynamic video content adaptation - Cross-layer optimization for video streaming - Cooperative video streaming - Peer-to-peer video streaming Resource Adaptive Encoding/Decoding Algorithms - Scalable video coding (quality, spatial, temporal and computation scalability) - Reconfigurable video coding - Distributed video coding Adaptation to Network Errors and Losses - Error resilience and concealment for video coding and communication - Source, channel and network coding for error-resilient video streaming Applications and Systems - IPTV: Video broadcasting and multicasting - Multi-view and interactive video - Video-anywhere.

Adaptability has been described as a characteristic of autonomous behavior and is often related to possessing learning capabilities through analysis of past behaviors and interactions. Adaptability has been intensely studied by various areas of engineering including artificial intelligence, control systems and human centered systems. Adaptability has been set as an important requirement for systems devised to work in new generation global networked and distributed environments like wireless networks, P2P networks, Web systems, multi-agent systems, grids, etc. Such systems are expected to pose new challenges for the development and application of adaptation techniques, due to their special characteristics including: interconnectivity, interactivity, distribution, heterogeneity and fault-tolerance. This special session welcomes submissions covering all aspects of adaptability in networked systems and media, including (but not limited to): - Self-configuring and self-structuring systems - Adaptive control in communication networks - Adaptive networked control systems - Rule-based adaptive systems - Computational intelligence and adaptability - Adaptability in multi-agent systems - Personalized and adaptive hypermedia - Adaptive information provisioning - Adaptive coordination - Adaptability in e-services, including e-learning and e-commerce - Adaptive negotiation - Context-aware systems - Machine learning methods for adaptive systems - Adaptive security systems Papers acceptance will be judged based on their relevance, clarity of presentation, originality and accuracy of results and proposed solutions. The papers will be published in the IEA/AIE 2008 conference proceedings, in a bound volume by Springer Verlag in their Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence series.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] [CFP]Workshop on Wireless Multihop Communications in Networked Robotics (WMCNR 2008) Datum: Sat, 3 Nov 2007 10:07:45 +0900 Von: Jung-Min Park <millfron(a)yonsei.ac.kr> An: TCCC <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> [Apologies for possible multiple copies] ================================================================== The First Workshop on Wireless Multihop Communications in Networked Robotics (WMCNR 2008) April 4th, Berlin, Germany http://www.wmcnr.org in conjunction with 6th Intl. Symposium on Modeling and Optimization in Mobile, Ad Hoc, and Wireless Networks (WiOpt'08) March 31-April 4, Berlin, Germany http://www.wiopt.org Call for papers: http://www.wmcnr.org/CFP_WMCNR2008.pdf ================================================================== *** Paper submission deadline: November 18, 2007 *** Submission guidelines are given at workshop webpage http://www.wmcnr.org Call for Papers The wireless multihop communication has been one of key research issues in recent years both in academia and wireless industry. It encompasses ad hoc radio networks, sensor networks, wireless mesh networks and mobile multihop relay related to the industrial and standardization activities such as IEEE 802.11s, 802.15.4, 802.16j, etc. Further the multihop communications can be combined with cooperative communications and network coding, which attracted more researchers in this field. The idea behind such multihop communications is to utilize the availability of other nodes or to borrow their transmission capability. This in many cases exceeds the delay caused by the multihop relay, the gain from which is capacity enhancement as well as coverage extension of plain radio networks. Now we turn our attention to the robotics area. In these days, many researchers are noticing group behaviors found in small insects or animals such as ants, birds, and fish, trying to realize such behaviors into the control and coordination of a team of robots with their local interaction. The multiple (usually small) robots communicate each other, sharing the same mission, naturally through wireless communications. In this respect, wireless multihop communication is an excellent candidate for inter-robot information exchange. The main idea of this workshop is to bridge the above two areas (wireless multihop communications and networked robotics) by opening a place for researchers to meet and exchange their ideas. The workshop welcomes submissions on all aspects of the themes, which include (but not limited to) the following topics: - Communication architecture for collaborative robot systems - Biologically inspired swarm robotics with networking functionality - Multiple robot networking with mutihop- and cooperative communications - Network coding and wireless relay technologies for cooperative robotics - Learning and adaptation in cooperative environments - Applications of multi-robot network systems - Ad hoc robot networks - Cognitive communication technologies for inter-robot team work - Exploiting robot mobility in wireless relay networks - QoS support in networked robotics - Wireless multihop networks under node mobility ================================================================== Important Dates: Paper submission deadline: November 18, 2007 Notification of acceptance: January 5, 2008 Camera-ready papers due: February 1, 2008 Submission guidelines are given at workshop webpage : http://www.wmcnr.org Submission will be done through COCUS : http://cocus.create-net.it ================================================================= Workshop Chair: Seong-Lyun Kim, Yonsei Univ., Korea (slkim(a)yonsei.ac.kr) Technical Programming Chairs: Riku Jantti, Helsinki Univ.

Best, Andrew ==== Call for papers Special issue of IEEE Network Magazine on Composable context aware services Wireless networks are revolutionizing the world around us. Imagine going about your day, only carrying a small mobile “companion” device. Your companion is small but the world around you is replete with a variety of displays, IO peripherals, sensors, and storage devices. As you near these resources, your companion “borrows” some of them and instantly morphs itself into a full fledged computer. All this happens without the hassles of wires, with utmost simplicity, and robust security. Beyond connectivity, your companion knows you, understands your preferences, tracks your calendar, and even learns your habits. It's capable of taking actions appropriate to your current situations, with little or no inputs from you. The device provides uses that you need and makes use of what is around to provide a higher-level of computing experience. Scope of special issue The purpose of this special issue will be to present a landscape of the state-of-the-art in research and practice of networking for composable context aware computing and connectivity. This special issue will present a collection of articles which discuss (a) high-level software, applications, and middleware that are needed to create and support composable services, (b) design of network protocols and software stacks for automatic composition, (c) the impact of context awareness to simplify network configuration, and (d) Implications for network system architecture and design. Papers should bridge the gap from academic research to early experience or deployment of monitoring infrastructure as embedded network management entities. In particular, papers must fit the target audience of IEEE Network and, therefore, have content that has tutorial value and be comprehensive. Submissions should preferably address one of the following topics: Topics of interest include · High-level software and applications needed to support and provide composable services · Security and privacy issues in the context of composable services · Middleware infrastructure needed to bridge the gap between connectivity provided by underlying network protocols and high-level software that creates composable services. · Communication protocols and architectures for device ensembles/collection of devices (set up, discovery, performance optimizations) · Security architectures for device introduction and setup · Wireless device composition – system architecture, design, and implications of communications of wireless devices for such environments (except the physical layer aspects of such devices such as antenna design) · Integration of location awareness into communications stack and mobility · Application of context-based inferencing to adapt in the presence of accessibility to multiple communication networks · Architecture and structure of applications that use collaborative network sensing to create context-aware applications · Challenges and solutions in constructing applications that can dynamically compose and provide a service based on the resources available in the immediate vicinity · Novel approaches to network management and operation esp. in the context of mobile, wireless networks · System architecture tradeoffs of communication vs computation to support a variety of devices and form factors in the composable/context aware environments · Implications of context awareness to WPAN-, WLAN-, WMAN- and cellular-based networks · Sensory issues such as composing or inferring user context from multiple sensor data Manuscript submission Authors must submit their manuscript (single column, double-spaced) electronically in PDF format by email to Raj Yavatkar (raj.yavatkar(a)intel.com) before the deadline. The manuscript should be written in single column, double-spaced, in accordance to the guidelines of the IEEE network magazine (http:// www.comsoc.org/pubs/net/).

With several favorable characteristics, such as dynamic self-organization, self-configuration, self-healing, easy maintenance, high scalability and reliable services, wireless mesh networks have been advocated as a cost-effective approach to support high-speed last mile connectivity and ubiquitous broadband access in the context of home networking, enterprise networking, or community networking. Despite recent advances, and the technical accumulations from more than a decade's research effort in mobile ad hoc networks, many research issues remain in all protocol layers of wireless mesh networks. For example, the introducing of mixed (infrastructure and ad hoc) architecture, multi-radio, multi-channel, and multi-antenna, have brought new challenges in the design of physical, MAC, and routing protocols. New application scenarios, such as all-wireless office, are urging researchers to address enhanced QoS support and various security issues in the design of different protocol layers for wireless mesh networks. This workshop aims to bring together the technologies and researchers who share interest in the area of wireless mesh and ad hoc networks. The main purpose is to promote discussions of research and relevant activities in the design of architectures, protocols, algorithms, services, and applications for wireless networks. It also aims at increasing the synergy between academic and industry professionals working in this area. We plan to seek papers that address theoretical, experimental, and work in-progress at the all layers of wireless mesh and ad hoc networks, from application layer to the physical layer. Topics covered by the workshop will include, but are not limited to, the following: Multi-radio and ?multi-channel wireless mesh networking Multi-hop wireless communications and ad hoc networking MAC protocols (IEEE 802.11, 802.15, 802.16, 802.20, and beyond) Routing, scheduling, and channel assignment protocols Quality of Services provisioning Multimedia communications over mesh and ad hoc networks Network deployment, localization, and synchronization Topology construction and maintenance Modeling and performance evaluations Cross layer optimizations Power-aware and energy-efficient protocols and algorithms Intelligent system techniques for mesh and ad hoc networks Testbed, prototype, and practical systems Novel applications of mesh and ad hoc networks Vehicular mesh and ad hoc networks Wireless sensor networks Self-adaptive and self-organizing wireless networking systems Important Dates --------------- Paper submission due: December 7, 2007 Acceptance notification: February 11, 2008 Camera-ready due: March 9, 2008 Workshop: June 20, 2008 Submissions and Publications ---------------------------- Authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting original unpublished research and recent developments in the topics related to the workshop.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] ATC-08 Call for papers Datum: Wed, 31 Oct 2007 21:04:05 +0100 Von: ATC'08 Program Chair <atc08(a)atilf.no> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu ##################### ATC-08 Call For Papers ###################### The 5th International Conference on Autonomic and Trusted Computing - Bring Safe, Self-x and Organic Computing Systems into Reality - http://www.ux.uis.no/atc08/ Organized by Oslo University College and University of Stavanger, Norway Technical Sponsorship by the IEEE Task Force on Intelligent Ubiquitous Computing Oslo, Norway, June 23-25, 2008 ################################################################### Computing systems including hardware, software, communication and networks are growing dramatically in both scale and heterogeneity, becoming overly complex. Such complexity is getting even more critical with the ubiquitous permeation of embedded devices and other pervasive systems. To cope with the growing and ubiquitous complexity, Autonomic Computing (AC) focuses on self-manageable computing and communication systems that exhibit self-awareness, self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing, self-protection and other self-x operations to the maximum extent possible without human intervention or guidance. Organic Computing (OC) additionally emphasizes natural-analogue concepts like self-organization and controlled emergence. Any autonomic or organic system must be trustworthy to avoid the risk of losing control and retain confidence that the system will not fail. Trust and/or distrust relationships in the Internet and in pervasive infrastructures are key factors to enable dynamic interaction and cooperation of various users, systems and services. Trusted/Trustworthy Computing (TC) aims at making computing and communication systems as well as services available, predictable, traceable, controllable, assessable, sustainable, dependable, persist-able, security/privacy protect-able, etc. A series of grand challenges exist to achieve practical self-manageable autonomic systems with truly trustworthy services.

During last three years, RAWNET has managed to attract many renowned researchers both as keynote speakers, TPC members and attendants, and it has become a stimulating venue for fruitful discussions and exchanges of ideas. For more details on the next and past RAWNET workshops, please see the web site http://www.rawnet.org). RAWNET takes place in conjunction with WiOpt 08, a well established wireless research conference (http://www.wiopt.org), and attracts a significant part of WiOpt crowd in the audience. Regards, RAWNET'08 Chairs David Gesbert and Bozidar Radunovic ============================================================================================ Call for papers: Welcome to RAWNET'08 Tomorrow's wireless network must be optimized to offer enhanced rate performance, at higher and often heterogenous quality-of-service levels, in user scenarios with ever increasing mobilily. To meet these challenges, system designers can resort to a number of tools and techniques at PHY, MAC or higher layers of the protocol stack. In order to increase the network efficiency (Bit/Sec/Hz per Euro/Dollar) while providing the required QoS, a more efficient utilization of the spectral resource across the network will be required. Smart resource allocation schemes should help provide the customer with a smooth user experience while efficiently tackling interference issues in agressive reuse environment, whether in cellular or adhoc scenarios. Ideally, they should be aware, i.e. jointly designed with lower layer algorithms (multiple antenna systems, spatial division multiple access, OFDMA, multi-cell cooperative coding) and potentialy upper layers as well (transport/routing/application). Specific topics of interest This workshop seeks original work within the fields described by (but not limited to) the bullets below: * User scheduling (single cell /multicell /OFDMA); * Cross-layer design (e.g. combined MIMO - Resource allocation schemes) * Power control and energy-efficient communication; * Resource allocation-based interference mitigation; * Cooperation schemes for interference control, range extension (multicell, multihop cooperation); * Performance evaluation methods for wireless networks; * Game theoretic resource allocation; * Pricing-based, auction-based schemes in ad-hoc/cellular networks; * Fairness vs. performance issues Submission guidelines *Paper submission deadline :* November 19, 2007 *Notification of acceptance :* January 21, 2008 *Camera-ready papers due :* February 21, 2008 *Early registration deadline :* March 1, 2008 Paper submissions will be handled electronically via Cocus <http://icst.org:8080/cocus/welcome.do>.

=============================================================================================== IEEE PIMRC 2008 Cannes, French Riviera, France 14-18 September 2008 =============================================================================================== Overview: The annual IEEE International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC) is one of the premier conferences in the wireless research arena and has a long history of bringing together academia, industry and regulatory bodies. Today, it has become one of IEEE ComSoc's flagship conferences in telecommunications. The 19th edition of PIMRC will be held from 14-18 September 2008 in glamorous Cannes, French Riviera, France, at the "Palais des Festivals de Cannes" where traditionally the Cannes Film Festival is being held. With Cannes being one of the most charming places on earth, we expect this to be a truly special conference. Focus: PIMRC 2008 will provide a global forum for presenting the most recent advances, the future technical challenges and business opportunities that comprise the contemporary landscape in wireless communications. The organizers endeavour to attract contributions covering not only conventional areas of wireless communications (e.g., physical layer), but also emerging areas with high potential for essential scientific and societal impact such as wireless sensors for biomedical applications, non-trivial pervasive computing services and ambient technologies. The latter areas are expected to facilitate the development of a broad vision of innovative future applications in wireless communications. The high quality IEEE endorsed technical programme, will also include tutorials, workshops, exhibitions, panel discussions and keynote presentations from leading experts coming from the academic community, industry, as well as regulatory and standardisation bodies. Call for Papers: Authors are invited to submit high-quality papers describing original and previously unpublished contributions in a wide range of topics in wireless communications. These topics are clustered into the following three major categories: 1) Physical Layer and MAC 2) Mobile and Wireless Networks 3) Applications, Services and Business Models Papers should be in English, strictly not exceeding 5 double-column pages. Authors should use the relevant IEEE template, ensuring an IEEE Xplore compatible PDF-format.
