[Fwd: [Tccc] CFPs: International Workshop on Intermittently Connected Mobile Ad hoc Networks]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFPs: International Workshop on Intermittently Connected Mobile Ad hoc Networks Datum: Sun, 3 Sep 2006 09:30:48 -0500 (CDT) Von: Dr. Hongyi Wu <wu(a)cacs.louisiana.edu> An: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP] CALL FOR PAPERS International Workshop on Intermittently Connected Mobile Ad hoc Networks in conjunction with IEEE PerCom 2007, White Plains, NY March 19-23, 2007. http://www.cacs.louisiana.edu/~wu/ICMAN/ For close to quarter of a century, mobile communication has experienced an explosive growth, especially in the last decade or so. In particular, one area of mobile communication networks, the ad hoc networks, has attracted significant attention due to its challenging research problems. The ad hoc networks technology has spun off new research areas, such as mesh-based mobile networks and sensor networks. What characterizes nearly all of those mobile technologies is that during the exchange of information between the source and destination terminals, there exists a set of links which constitutes an end-to-end path over which the information can be exchanged. However, in some application scenarios, the connectivity between the mobile terminals does not always allow for creation of such a path. This could be due to very sparse network conditions (low node density) or due to unstable connectivity conditions (interference, fading, etc). Thus, in such scenarios, it would be often difficult, or even impossible, to form a well-connected mesh network for transmitting data through established end-to-end connections. In fact, even if there temporarily exists a path in the network for some portion of the communication, it is likely that the terminals will only be intermittently connected due to mobility. A simple example is that in a WLAN environment, mobile users may be connected to an AP for a while before moving out of its coverage, and then getting connected to a different AP. More examples are found in environments without access to infrastructure at all. In this workshop we aim to explore novel research issues related to intermittently connected mobile ad hoc networks (ICMAN), which encompasses the scope of delay or disruption tolerant networks (or DTN), and bringing together state-of-the-art contributions in this emerging area. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - New architecture design - Novel transport and routing protocols - Reliability and fault tolerance - Energy, processing power and storage requirement - Mobility modeling and mobility management - Localization and node synchronization - Security, privacy and incentives for co-operation - Resource allocation and QoS support - Performance analysis and evaluation - Delay-tolerant applications - Testbed implementation and experimental results Important Dates: - Submission deadline: Sept. 29, 2006 - Notification of acceptance: Nov. 22, 2006 - Camera-ready papers due: Dec. 22, 2006 - Workshop date: March 19-23, 2007 Submission Instructions : Papers are solicited in the IEEE proceedings format with up to eight (8) pages.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [OC-ML] Call for contributions: Special Session on Organic Computing at IEEE ISCAS Datum: Fri, 1 Sep 2006 10:01:39 +0200 (CEST) Von: Fabian Rochner <rochner(a)sra.uni-hannover.de> An: rochner(a)sra.uni-hannover.de Dear subscribers of the Organic Computing Mailinglist, below you can find the Call for contributions for the special session "Organic Computing" at IEEE ISCAS, taking place May 2007 in New Orleans. The deadline for proposals (abstracts) of tutorials or regular contributions is 5 September 2006. Regards, Fabian Rochner ================================================ Call for Contributions Special Session on Organic Computing, IEEE ISCAS, May 2007, New Orleans (USA) Organic Computing investigates as a science how Life creates goal-oriented reactions to the dynamic environment through an evolving hierarchy of internal processes. In the current practice of Algorithmic Computing, reality is off-line modelled and analysed to conceive functions that will handle pre-determined (domains of) situations. Novel situations are difficult to handle adequately and may lead to abnormal or uncontrollable behaviour. The basic ingredients of Organic Computing relate to the guided self-organization by which a typical Life system grows and is maintained in support of dealing with novel subjects. By employing a large number of simple components interacting with each other in an orchestrated way, information processing becomes robust, self-organising, adaptable, decentralized, asynchronous, fault-tolerant and evolvable. Time development is given by the reaction-diffusion principle, while reaction represents local production/extinction of the state, and diffusion means a transport process, tending to dampen any in-homogeneity of the neighbourhood. Organic Computing is a rising topic in Embedded Real-Time Systems, where it boosts advances in the Intelligent Home, Office and Factory by sensory & regulating networks through wearable, swarming and autonomic applications. The road to reality will lead over low-power, low-cost and low-datarate networks and related nodes. Organic Computing can be facilitated by Cellular (Neural) Networks, but are not confined to that. The Special Session will focus on new developments in the hardware & software aspects of the Circuits that create organic behaviour and the evolving Systems. Proposals for contributions to this special session (tutorial or regular) can be mailed before 5 September 2006 to the session organizers Lambert Spaanenburg (lspaanenburg(a)ieee.org) and Peter Szolgay (szolgay(a)sztaki.hu) and should contain at minimum the title, authors and abstract of the proposed paper. If the Special Session will be accepted for the ISCAS on 23 September, the 4-page contributions are expected before 3 November 2006.

These technologies have greatly improved the levels of safety and comfort to drivers. Recently significant efforts have been made to enhance and integrate the latest wireless communications technologies into the vehicle and transportation systems to enable safety and information applications. For example, significant industrial and governmental efforts are underway to push from passive-safety to active-safety by employing advanced networking functions in vehicles and highway infrastructure. When such communications and networking capabilities are installed, the vehicle itself can interact intelligently with other vehicles and the highway system, achieving a much higher degree of vehicular safety. Such capabilities can also support many exciting new applications, such as traffic management, vehicle diagnostics and mobile commerce. .

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Call for Paper: CoMoRea'07 Datum: Thu, 24 Aug 2006 11:45:25 +0200 Von: Daniela Nicklas <nicklas(a)ipvs.uni-stuttgart.de> Antwort an: Daniela Nicklas <nicklas(a)ipvs.uni-stuttgart.de> Organisation: Universität Stuttgart An: wolf <wolf(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de> +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 4th Workshop on Context Modeling and Reasoning (CoMoRea) | | at the 5th IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing | | and Communication (PerCom'07), New York, USA. | | http://nexus.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/COMOREA | | | | Call for Paper | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ OUR SINCERE APOLOGIES IF YOU RECEIVE MULTIPLE COPIES OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT Workshop Scope ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Context-aware applications intelligently support user tasks by acting autonomously on behalf of users and this autonomy is based on evaluation of context information. Some models of context information already exist, however many research issues related to context information modeling are still not fully addressed. A generic approach to context modeling is needed in order to capture various features of context information, including a variety of types of context information, dependencies between context information, quality of context information and context histories. Hybrid approaches to context modeling -- such as approaches that combine ontology-based modeling with alternative modeling techniques -- also need to be explored, as many of the current solutions are too limited to capture the richness of context information and support the necessary reasoning. In addition, to ease software engineering problems encountered in programming context-aware applications, appropriate abstractions are necessary to support discovery and reuse of context information, as well as scalable methods of context processing and management. It is also necessary to increase user acceptance of autonomously adapting applications by developing methods of balancing autonomy of context-aware applications with user control. This workshop’s aim is to advance the state-of-the-art in context information modeling, reasoning and management, and in methods that balance autonomy of context-aware applications with user control. The goal is to identify concepts, theories and methods applicable to context modeling and reasoning, as well as system-oriented issues related to the design and implementation of context-aware systems. CoMoRea will provide a forum for researchers to present and discuss recent research results and ongoing work. A strong emphasis will be put on experiences with context modeling and the management of the context information. The workshop will foster exchange of experiences and collaboration among researchers. In particular, the following topics are of interest to this workshop: * Context modeling techniques * Domain-specific context models * Ontology-based approaches to context modeling and reasoning * Hybrid context models (integration of various modeling techniques) * Advanced issues in context modeling, including issues of information quality and ambiguity * Context reasoning algorithms, their complexity and accuracy * Discovery and reuse of context information * Privacy of context information * Distributed and scalable context management * Experiences with using context models to build context-aware applications * Tool support for context modeling and development of context model-based applications * Balance of autonomy with user control Publication ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submitted papers will be refereed by the workshop Program Committee. Accepted papers will appear in the PerCom 07 Workshops proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society Press. Submissions ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submitted papers should address at least one of the workshop topics. The papers should be in the IEEE format and should be no more than 5 pages in length. Research papers must be an original unpublished work and not under review elsewhere. Experience reports must be stated as such and a comprehensive discussion of the taken approach, experiences, and its assessment is expected. Papers should be submitted via the EasyChair CoMoRea page, http://www.easychair.org/CoMoRea07/ Important Dates ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Paper submissions due by: September 29, 2006 * Paper selections due by: November 25, 2006 * Final papers due to IEEE: December 22, 2006 * Workshop date: March 19 or 23, 2007 Organizers: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Co-chairs: Jadwiga Indulska, The University of Queensland, Australia Daniela Nicklas, Stuttgart University, Germany Program Committee: Jalal Al-Muhati, King Saud University, Saudi Arabia John Bateman, Bremen University, Germany Claudio Bettini, University of Milan, Italy Oliver Brdiczka, INRIA, France Jadwiga Indulska, University of Queensland, Australia Gerd Kortuem, Lancaster University, UK Ghita Kouadri Mostefaoui, University of Montréal, Canada Daniela Nicklas, Universitaet Stuttgart, Germany Gregor Schiele, Universitaet Stuttgart, Germany Thomas Strang, German Aerospace Center, Germany Anand Ranganathan, IBM T.J.

We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS - WONS 2007 The Fourth International Conference on Wireless On-demand Network Systems and Services January 24-26, 2007. Obergurgl (Innsbruck), AUSTRIA http://wons07.uibk.ac.at ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Scope of the conference ----------------------- The world of wireless networks in the last few years has definitely turned its attention and focus more on "lightweight" networks, cheap and easily deployed, rather than the traditional, infrastructured cellular networks. The aim is providing ubiquitous connectivity and network centric services, with the important attribute of service provisioning "on demand" with minimal planning and management effort as well as with little dependency on existing network infrastructures. Even in the cellular network world, providers often point out their capacity to offer ad-hoc services that are tailored for a specific event or community, e.g. gaming on cellular networks. On the other extreme, peer2peer systems can provide innovative communication services to a community on ad-hoc networks, requiring almost no infrastructure. Ambient intelligence and ubiquitous computing are also part of this broad vision of "on demand" networking, providing services to users when they need it, albeit the final user might not even be aware if it! WONS is now at its fourth edition, and the community interest is still on the rise, providing a premier forum for high quality papers presentation and lively discussion. For this conference we request submissions of high quality research papers on "wireless on demand networks" that provide novel insights on protocol and network design, modeling and performance evaluation, pricing and profitability models, QoS models, practical implementations, service level aspects and Internet integration of wireless networks. Topics related to wireless ad hoc networks and sensor networks comprise, but are not limited to: * Architecture and Design * Analysis through simulation and experimental evaluation * Modeling * Internet integration * Social and economic aspects * Pervasive / ubiquitous computing * Localization and mobility management * Security * Energy-efficient protocols and power management * Applications and Service Support * Data dissemination and peer2peer systems Schedule -------- Paper registration deadline: September 1, 2006 Paper due: September 7, 2006 (No further extension will be granted!) Feedback to authors: October 30, 2006 Final manuscripts to publisher: November 20, 2006 (tentative) Conference: January, 24-26, 2007 Manuscript submissions ---------------------- Submitted papers must not have been published elsewhere nor currently be under review by another conference or journal. Authors are invited to submit full papers (8 pages) and short papers (4 pages). Short papers should address future research directions, ongoing work, and visionary, innovative ideas. All papers should be submitted electronically as PDF, according to the IEEE publisher format. The papers will be published in the conference proceedings published by the IEEE.

[Fwd: [Cost290] CFP - 1st IEEE International Workshop on Bandwidth on Demand (BoD 2006)]
by Lars Wolf 06 Aug '06

06 Aug '06

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Cost290] CFP - 1st IEEE International Workshop on Bandwidth on Demand (BoD 2006) Datum: Fri, 04 Aug 2006 17:09:56 +0200 Von: David Hausheer <hausheer(a)ifi.unizh.ch> An: cost290(a)cs.tut.fi Apologies for possibly receiving multiple copies of this CFP. Call for Papers 1st IEEE International Workshop on Bandwidth on Demand (BoD 2006) http://www.csg.unizh.ch/events/bod06/ In conjunction with IEEE GLOBECOM 2006 http://www.ieee-globecom.org/2006/ November 27, 2006 San Francisco, California, USA Scope Electronic marketplaces for trading bandwidth have emerged since the late 1990’s, but were seriously hit by the economic downturn in 2001. The promise of instant bandwidth availability had led to the development of market mechanisms that companies used to trade bandwidth just as other commodities. However, those trading markets all but disappeared with the bursting of the telecom bubble. Driven by the recent technical advances in telecommunications and the new potentials of emerging peer-to-peer (P2P) and next generation networks (NGN), the goal of this workshop is to take a fresh and innovative look at the concept of bandwidth on demand (BOD). Recent advances in the Internet-based communications domain, in which the support of Quality-of-Service and diverse application services become possible, require in many cases short-termed bandwidth assignments for, e.g., large sporting events or cultural open air activities. In addition, the support of bandwidth trading in a fully decentralized and secured manner, e.g., based on P2P schemes, shows further advantages in terms of reliability and scalability for large-scale systems. Topics of Interest The workshop seeks original papers in the following four areas that serve as basis for bandwidth on demand: * Economic studies and modeling of market and business models in carrier and service provider networks o Game theoretical bandwidth-on-demand models o Cost and revenue models o Bandwidth-on-demand business models o Market liquidity aspects * Technical design of scalable, reliable, and cost-effective bandwidth trading infrastructures, including market mechanisms as a way to increase efficiencies o Scalable market mechanisms o Secure and reliable market infrastructures o Bandwidth trading mechanisms o IP-based and decentralized trading mechanisms o P2P trading infrastructures, distributed markets o P2P auctions * Legislative and regulatory issues related to the Telecom Act and in comparison to other commodities markets such as the electric grid o Telecom legislation o Telecom regulation o Commodities markets * Industrial developments of new technologies that facilitate or create impediments to bandwidth on demand o Network management aspects o Technical improvements in transport and data networks Paper Submissions Papers are solicited as full papers (in English), of no more than 8 single-spaced pages, each of which will be subject to a full review process. Submissions must be in PDF and will be handled using the JEMS system. Please refer to http://www.csg.unizh.ch/events/bod06/ for further submission instructions or contact bod06(a)ifi.unizh.ch for additional information. Those papers accepted will be published in proceedings with an ISBN number. Important Dates * Submission deadline: August 31, 2006 * Notification of acceptance: October 15, 2006 * Final versions of papers due: October 31, 2006 * Workshop date: November 27, 2006 Committees General Co-chairs * Takeo Hamada, Fujitsu Laboratories of America, USA * Burkhard Stiller, University of Zurich and ETH Zurich, Switzerland PC Co-chairs * Richard Rabbat, Fujitsu Laboratories of America, USA * David Hausheer, University of Zurich, Switzerland Technical Program Committee * Panayotis Antoniadis, LIP6, France * Greg Bernstein, Grotto Networking, USA * Georg Carle, University of Tübingen, Germany * Costas Courcoubetis, AUEB, Greece * György Dán, KTH, Sweden * Vasilios Darlagiannis, EPFL, Switzerland * Zoran Despotovic, DoCoMo Euro-Labs München, Germany * Oliver Heckmann, TU Darmstadt, Germany * Rahul Jain, UC Berkeley, USA * Dave Marples, Telcordia, USA * Huw Oliver, Bristol, Research Consultant, UK * Lyndon Ong, Ciena, USA * Aiko Pras, University of Twente, The Netherlands * Giancarlo Ruffo, University of Torino, Italy * Vik Saxena, Comcast, USA * Kohei Shiomoto, NTT Labs, Japan * to be extended _______________________________________________ Cost290 mailing list Cost290(a)cs.tut.fi https://mailman.cs.tut.fi/mailman/listinfo/cost290
