-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] Deadline extended to May 15 LOCAN 2007 Datum: Thu, 03 May 2007 12:10:43 +0200 Von: Pedro M. Ruiz <pedrom(a)dif.um.es> An: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Our apologies if you receive duplicates of this posting. Please feel free to distribute it to those who might be interested. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ********************************************************************* * CALL FOR PAPERS * * * * LOCAN 2007 * * * * The 3rd International Workshop on Localized Communication * * and Topology Protocols for Ad hoc Networks * * http://ants.dif.um.es/locan2007 * * * * In conjunction with the 4th IEEE International Conference on * * Mobile Ad-Hoc and Sensor Systems, MASS 2007 * * http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/mass2007 * * Pisa, Italy, October 13 , 2006 * ********************************************************************* SUBJECT AND SCOPE ----------------- This workshop covers comprehensively the algorithmic issues in the hot area of ad hoc and sensor networking. In particular, sensor networks are currently recognized as one of the priority research areas (for example, a multi-disciplinary program on sensors and sensor networks was launched in 2003 at the US National Science Foundation) and research activities are booming recently. This workshop concentrates on network layer problems like data communication (routing, QoS-routing, geocasting, multicasting, broadcasting, etc.) and topology control (neighbor discovery, power adjustment, neighbor elimination, etc.). The main paradigm shift is to apply localized (or greedy) schemes as opposed to existing protocols requiring global information. Localized algorithms are distributed algorithms where simple local node behavior achieves a desired global objective. Localized protocols provide scalable solutions, that is, solutions for wireless networks with an arbitrary number of nodes, which is the main goal of this plan. Sensor and rooftop/mesh networks, for instance, have hundreds or thousands of nodes. The objective of the workshop is to present state of the art research results on data communication and topology control in rapidly growing area of ad hoc and sensor networks, with emphasizes on localized techniques. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Medium access control * Analytical, mobility and validation models * Hybrid networks and wireless Internet * Security in ad hoc networks * Data management, query processing, and data delivery in sensor networks * Unicast routing, multicasting, and broadcasting * Geocasting and anycasting * Energy-efficient and bandwidth-efficient protocols * Quality of service in medium access control and routing * Topology construction and maintenance * Neighborhood discovery and mobility management * Localized protocols for duty-cycled sensor networks * Sensor area coverage problems * Auto-configuration and network formation protocols and algorithms * Relative positioning algorithms * Lower bounds on information exchange required for localized solutions * Network graph properties supporting localized protocols * Worst and average case analysis on the deviation from optimal solutions IMPORTANT DATES --------------- Manuscript Submission: May 15, 2007 Acceptance Notification: July 15, 2007 Final Manuscript Due: August 10, 2007 Workshop Date: October 12, 2007 PAPER SUBMISSION ---------------- Papers must not exceed 10 single-spaced and two-column pages using at least 10 point size type on 8.5 x 11 inches pages.

Akan <akan(a)ece.gatech.edu> An: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu [We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.] _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ Call for Papers COMPUTER NETWORKS JOURNAL (ELSEVIER) Special Issue on WIRELESS MULTIMEDIA SENSOR NETWORKS *EXTENDED* Submission deadline: July 30, 2007 _____________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) have recently been the focus of a significant amount of attention and effort of the research community. The main motivation has been to address the challenges posed by the WSN paradigm, i.e., limited node power, processing, and communication capabilities, dense network deployment, multi-hop communications, and heterogeneous application-specific requirements. The vast majority of these studies applies to conventional WSN applications which need reliable and efficient communication of scalar event features and sensor data such as temperature, pressure, humidity. With the availability of low-cost small-scale imaging sensors, CMOS cameras, microphones, which may ubiquitously capture multimedia content from the field, Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSN) have been proposed and drawn the immediate attention of the research community. WMSN applications, e.g., multimedia surveillance networks, target tracking, environmental monitoring, and traffic management systems, require effective harvesting and communication of event features in the form of multimedia such as audio, image, and video.

Applications like mobile TV, IPTV, on-demand streaming, and peer-to-peer video sharing have fundamentally changed the content distribution landscape, and have been accelerating a social and engineering revolution in media distribution and consumption. To achieve the ultimate goals of total freedom in self-expression, seamless mobile access, and any time anywhere media consumption, technology advances in various areas need to be reexamined and joined utilized under a coherent optimization framework to reach an efficient end-to-end media delivery solution. New models, metrics, and methodologies in both source, and channel coding, distributed and collaborative communications are needed to intelligently adapt the multimedia content to suit user preferences, meet device and network constraints, and achieve better communication resource utilization. The source coding and adaptation decisions of media sources need to be reconciled with the limited network resources, end-user preferences, and resource allocation schemes at network nodes. Distributed optimization schemes like pricing and game theoretical approaches are needed to improve resource allocation and management efficiency. This special issue seeks original contributions of highquality papers that report the recent advances in multimedia coding, adaptation, and transmission approaches that support multiuser collaboration and optimize the network performance for multimedia communications. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Source/channel coding/adaptation techniques for increasing the elasticity of multimedia traffic * Collaborative multicast schemes utilizing source and channel diversity for efficient multimedia distribution * Distributed resource allocation and management for multimedia communication * Network utility maximization based on collaborative multimedia communication * Pricing models for collaborative multimedia transmission * Game theoretical models for multimedia contents interactions Authors should follow the Advances in Multimedia manuscript format described at the journal site http://www.hindawi.com/journals/am.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [IFIP-EC-NEWS] NEW: International Journal of Computer Games Technology - An Open Access Journal Datum: Thu, 26 Apr 2007 11:10:33 +0200 Von: Rauterberg, G.W.M. <G.W.M.Rauterberg(a)tue.nl> An: <icec(a)listserver.tue.nl> ** IFIP ENTERTAINMENT COMPUTING NEWS SERVICE ** http://listserver.tue.nl/mailman/listinfo/icec ** Send all news to: icec(a)listserver.tue.nl **************************************************** ** NOTE: Please reply to article's originator, ** not this IFIP EC News Service **************************************************** Dear Colleague: I am writing to let you know of the launch of the International Journal of Computer Games Technology, which aims to bring together both the research and development aspects of games technology, covering the whole range of entertainment computing and interactive digital media. The focus will be on three research and development frontiers: first, to expand the technology frontier in terms of both hardware and software for games, second, to validate innovative procedures including algorithms and architectures for games, and finally, to explore novel applications of games technology both for entertainment and serious games. The journal is a peer-reviewed full "Open Access" journal, i.e., the journal enables world-wide, barrier-free, online access to the full text of published research articles. All interested readers can read, download, and/or print any articles without requiring a subscription to the journal. In addition, we allow our open access authors to retain their own copyright as long as they sign a Creative Commons Attribution License, which allows readers to freely access, print and redistribute an article as long as it is properly cited. The journal has distinguished editorial board members with extensive academic qualifications, ensuring that the journal will maintain high scientific standards and have a broad international coverage. Another important aspect is the review and publication speed of the journal since the publisher's electronic Manuscript Tracking System (MTS), which is located at http://www.hindawi.com/mts/, helps reduce the review time significantly. We are then aiming for an average publication time of a few weeks following acceptance. Furthermore, the articles of the journal are now published on an accelerated article-by-article basis to reduce the publication delay of accepted manuscripts. I would like to take this opportunity to invite you to submit your research paper to the journal and maximize the readership and impact of your research. For more information about the journal, please visit the following URL: http://www.hindawi.com/journals/ijcgt/ . Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions about the journal. Many thanks and best regards. Sincerely yours, Prof. Edmond Prakash Editor-in-Chief International Journal of Computer Games Technology **************************************************** ** To send and receive IFIP-EC-NEWS, go to ** http://listserver.tue.nl/mailman/listinfo/icec ** and subscribe directly **************************************************** ** News archives: ** http://listserver.tue.nl/mailman/private/icec/ **************************************************** ** To join the IFIP ENTERTAINMENT COMPUTING Group ** contact: g.w.m.rauterberg(a)tue.nl **************************************************** _______________________________________________ ICEC mailing list ICEC(a)listserver.tue.nl http://listserver.tue.nl/mailman/listinfo/icec
