-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Call For Papers - IEEE ICC 2022 Workshop on Synergies of communication, localization, and sensing towards 6G Datum: Fri, 8 Oct 2021 16:28:48 +0000 Von: Henk Wymeersch <henkw(a)CHALMERS.SE> Antwort an: Henk Wymeersch <henkw(a)CHALMERS.SE> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Apologies for cross-posting 1st Call For Papers IEEE ICC 2022 Workshop on Synergies of communication, localization, and sensing towards 6G Scope Research on 6G is now well underway and several large initiatives have been launched around the globe to define what this new generation of wireless networks will be. These definitions are supported by a wide variety of technological enablers, ranging from access in the THz spectrum, which bring massive bandwidths and laser-like beamforming capabilities, to the introduction of new antenna technologies and intelligent metasurfaces, which provide massive apertures and new ways of shaping the propagation medium. Due to the wide variety of envisioned use cases, 6G will not lead to a one-size-fits-all solution, but rather inspire a rich diversity in terms of devices, spectrum usage, and technologies. Common among many emerging services in need of 6G is the requirement for localization and sensing to be an integral part of 6G. The ability of 6G to locate and track active users as well as passive objects will be part of the core communications functionality and will enable and enrich a wide variety of futuristic services, including immersive augmented reality, robot collaboration, and environment/earth monitoring. These services will lead to a more inclusive and sustainable 6G ecosystem. The overarching vision of this workshop is that the synergies among localization, sensing, and communications within the 6G ecosystem require a common venue, not focusing on any specific technological enabler, but rather support a broad and diverse set of viewpoints, including those from industry (telecom and radar industries) and academia (communications, signal processing, and circuits communities). Topics We seek original completed and unpublished work not currently under review by any other journal/magazine/conference. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: · Use cases and applications of communication, localization, and sensing in a 6G context · 6G communication, localization, and sensing in the millimeter-wave and THz bands · Location-based network management and analytics · Communication, localization, and sensing with reconfigurable intelligent surfaces · Full duplex schemes for simultaneous communication and localization and/or sensing · Air interface and waveform design for integrated communication, localization, and sensing · Protocols for integrated communication, localization, and sensing · Signal processing techniques (including machine learning, AI, and beamspace processing) for integrated communications, localization, and sensing · Modeling of hardware, antennas, channels or propagation for joint communication and sensing · Localization and sensing at different frequency bands · Coexistence, coordination, and cooperation between radar and communication in 6G · Communication and positioning with energy-neutral devices and massive IoT · Energy-efficient, scalable (network and/or transceiver hardware) architectures and strategies for joint communication and sensing · Location-aware ultra-reliable communications · Context-aware localization systems · THz imaging, positioning/localization, THz spectroscopy in 6G General Co-chairs · Henk Wymeersch, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden · Stefania Bartoletti, CNR and CNIT, Italy · Liesbet Van der Perre, KU Leuven, Belgium · Angeliki Alexiou, University of Piraeus, Greece · George C. Alexandropoulos, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece Important Dates Paper submission deadline: January 20, 2022 Notification of acceptance: March 06, 2022 Camera-ready papers: March 15, 2022 For more information, please see the IEEE ICC 2022 official website: https://icc2022.ieee-icc.org/authors.

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Kapal Dev <kapal.dev(a)IEEE.ORG> Gesendet: 6. Oktober 2021 22:46:44 MESZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] - IEEE Transactions on Green Communications and Networking *** Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP *** Dear colleagues, You are cordially invited to submit your latest research results to *IEEE Transactions on Green Communications and Networking, * *Special Issue on Green Communication and Networking for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles* With the advancements in Internet of Things (IoT) and communication technologies (5G beyond/6G), Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV) is eventually being realized and will make a major contribution to the development of smart mobility systems in the pursuit of green and sustainable economies. Cooperative driving features allowed by CAVs will dramatically reduce CO2 emissions, allowing for more environmentally friendly intelligent, smart and sustainable transportation. More sophisticated green communication and networking computation technologies are needed for CAVs environments due to the heterogeneity of networking organizations, strict implementation specifications, and restricted resources. Future CAVs networks would have a greater range of sensors and multi-access edge settings, allowing for more effective use of various modes of frequency spectrum. Simultaneously, novel services reduced travel time, cooperative autonomous driving, reduced maintenance and infrastructure costs, improved energy efficiency, etc. all require unparalleled high precision and reliability, ultra-low latency, and wide bandwidth. Even though Green communication for CAVs is a potential disruptive research direction that can revolutionize the typical transportation system, it is not being fully realized as several challenges in CAVs are yet to be addressed. Some of the critical challenges in the realization of CAVs are data storage, privacy and security issues, energy optimization of the IoT sensors in the vehicles, regulatory uncertainties, real time analytics of the big data generated from CAVs, etc. This Special Issue solicits high-quality research works from researchers from academia and industry to propose innovative ideas to address the issue of energy optimization in CAV networks. Theoretical, experimental studies, and case studies on energy optimization/green communication in CAV are welcome. We solicit papers covering various topics of interest that include, but are not limited to, the following topics: - Resource Optimization for green communication and networking in CAVs - Machine, federated, Transfer and deep learning-based models for green communication and networking in CAVs - Edge assisted green communication and networking for CAVs - Edge AI for green communication and networking for CAVs - Digital Twin for green communication and networking for CAVs - Intent-based Networking for green communication and networking for CAVs - Applications of meta-heuristic algorithms for green communication and networking in CAV - Energy optimization for 5G and beyond enabled CAVs - Blockchain/Smart Contracts for energy optimization in CAV - Efficient routing protocols for energy optimization in CAVs - Test beds for green communication systems for CAVs - SDN, VNF, NS for green communication systems for CAVs - Optimization techniques (Harris Hawk, search and rescue, etc.) for green communication systems for CAVs *Submission Guidelines* Authors need to follow the manuscript format and an allowable number of pages described at the IEEE TGCN Information for Authors <https://www.comsoc.org/publications/journals/ieee-tgcn/information-authors> page.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CfP - IEEE/IFIP WONS 2022 @ Oppdal, Norway Datum: Tue, 5 Oct 2021 08:45:46 +0000 Von: Peyman Teymoori <peymant(a)IFI.UIO.NO> Antwort an: Peyman Teymoori <peymant(a)IFI.UIO.NO> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG [Apologies in advance if you receive multiple copies of this email.] Dear Colleagues, 17th IEEE/IFIP Wireless On-demand Network systems and Services Conference (WONS) will be held on 30 March - 1 April 2022, in Oppdal, Norway. Please see the Call for Papers below and consider submitting your novel research papers. The paper submission deadline is Nov 19, 2021. Webpage: http://2022.wons-conference.org/ CALL FOR PAPERS Wireless on-demand network systems and services have become pivotal in shaping our future networked world. Starting as a niche application over Wi-Fi, they can now be found in mainstream technologies like Bluetooth LE, LTE Direct and Wireless LANs, and have become the cornerstone of upcoming networking paradigms including mesh and sensor networks, cloud networks, vehicular networks, disruption tolerant and opportunistic networks, and in-body networks. The challenges of this exciting research field are numerous. Examples include how to make smart use of these novel technologies when multiple technologies or a mix of permanent services and on-demand networking opportunities are available to a network node, how to provide robust services in highly dynamic environments, how to efficiently employ and operate heavily resource-constrained devices, and how to develop robust and lightweight algorithms for self-organization and adaptation. IEEE/IFIP WONS, now numbering seventeen editions, has established itself as a high quality forum to address these and related challenges. WONS’22 is able to continue to provide a global platform for rich interactions between experts in their fields, discussing innovative contributions in a stimulating environment. This announcement solicits original contributions of high-quality research providing novel insights on all aspects of wireless on-demand networks and systems; from protocol and network design, modeling, performance evaluation, profitability models, energy efficiency, QoS models and mechanisms, practical implementations, service level aspects, application use-cases, to the integration of multiple wireless network technologies. Topics of interest comprise, but are not limited to: 5G and 6G networks Cognitive radio networks Cross-layer design Data analytics and ML/AI driven network systems Green wireless networks Heterogeneous wireless networks Implementations and testbeds Internet of Things Intra-body and biomedical on-demand systems Localization and mobility management Middleware aspects Mobile computing and services Network and service management Novel architectures and protocols Novel applications and services Open source software, open source hardware and open data Performance evaluation through simulations, emulations and real-world experiments Pervasive and ubiquitous computing Quantum computing and networking Security, privacy, and trust Social and economic aspects Theoretical and data driven modeling and optimization Vehicular networks WONS 2022 is Technically Co-Sponsored by IFIP TC6 and the IEEE Computer Society's Technical Committee on Computer Communications (TCCC). Accepted and presented papers will appear in the conference proceedings published in the IFIP Open Access Digital Library and the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. REVIEW PROCESS We will have at least 3 reviews per paper and we count on the TPC members to do the reviews themselves in order to ensure high quality and comprehensive reviews. After the reviews, TPC members will discuss the paper and will reach one of the following decisions: ‘Accept’, ‘Revise’ or ‘Reject’. The papers in the ‘Revise’ category will be assigned a shepherd. The shepherd will oversee the revision process (which will take around 3-4 weeks) and ultimately decide on whether the paper will be accepted or not. We will assign the shepherds among the program committee on a voluntary basis. With the introduction of the shepherding to the review process this year, our goal is to further improve the paper quality at WONS’22. IMPORTANT DATES Paper registration: Nov 12, 2021 Paper submission: Nov 19, 2021 Acceptance notification: Jan 17, 2022 Camera ready: Feb 25, 2022 ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

May 3-6, 2022 - Milan, Italy https://conferences.computer.org/iotDI/2022/ Call for papers The ACM/IEEE International Conference on Internet of Things Design and Implementation (IoTDI) is a premier venue on IoT. In 2022, IoTDI will be held for the seventh time, and will be part of CPS-IoT WEEK 2022 (https://cpsiotweek.neslab.it) being held in Milan, Italy. A confluence of technological advances marks the advent of a new era. World data volume is growing at an unprecedented pace, much of it from embedded devices. AI/ML technology promise unprecedented levels of automation in system operation and data processing. Smart cities grow, fed by millions of data points from multitudes of human and physical sources, together with machine intelligence algorithms that extract value for applications. Cyber-attacks grow more nefarious, bringing down physical systems. Social media are becoming ubiquitous, offering additional information on physical things. The separation between cyber, physical, and social systems is blurring. Collectively, these developments lead to the emergence of a new multi-disciplinary field, where the networking and physical realms meet, often in social spaces. It is the field of the Internet of Things (IoT). This conference is an interdisciplinary forum that brings together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry and government to discuss challenges, technologies, and emerging directions in IoT system design and implementation. This conference invites original, previously unpublished work on a range of IoT topics, broadly defined. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: . Analytic foundations and theory of IoT . Reliability, security, timeliness, and robustness in IoT systems . Machine intelligence for IoT systems and applications . Social applications and social data analytics for IoT . Novel protocols and network abstractions . Data streaming architectures and AI/ML analytics for IoT . IoT-motivated cyber-physical and Industrial IoT (IIoT) systems . Novel quality requirements and their enforcement mechanisms . Cloud back-ends and resource management for IoT applications . Edge and fog computing . Personal, wearable, and other embedded networked front-ends . Social computing and human-in-the-loop issues . Applications domains (e.g., smart cities, smart health, smart buildings, smart transportation) . Deployment experiences, case studies, and lessons learned . Evaluation and testbeds . Energy/Power Management and Harvesting for IoT Platforms For papers reporting results based on experiments with human subjects, appropriate ethics approvals should be demonstrated as part of the submission. Accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore's scope and quality requirements. IoTDI collaborates closely with the IPSN conference, given the proximity in research themes (both related to IoT) and the co-location in CPS-IoT Week. We provide submission guidelines (https://ipsn.acm.org/joint_statement_IoTDI.html) to aid prospective authors with the conference venue selection. In the meantime, we would like to make explicit that double submission remains prohibited under the publisher's policy of Prior Publication and Simultaneous Submissions. In 2022 and to foster a closer joint-community, we would invite quality submissions to one venue for publication at the other, in case we find fit and the authors agree Paper Submission Please submit your paper to IoTDI 2022 here: https://iotdi22.hotcrp.com ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Among the others, transportation systems are nowadays populated by smart and interconnected vehicles that need to communicate with each other and with critical infrastructures to orchestrate traffic and mobility. Transportation systems are hence operated through multiple technologies that need to cooperate to provide efficient delivery of goods and human mobility, as well as to provide security in the overall networks. The latter task is complicated by the fact that vehicles autonomously drive and cooperate in the network without human intervention. The overall transportation network can be therefore represented by a cyber-physical system, where a large number of sensors, actuators, and multiple technologies are connected and exchange information. To guarantee the overall network security, attack detection and the design of suitable countermeasures play a fundamental role. The security of cyber-physical systems has been widely studied in literature. However, most of the proposed solutions target either the cyber or the physical threats, without providing a unified view able to detect and mitigate more complicated attacks. The purpose of this special issue is therefore to collect the latest research achievements in the cyber-physical threats and countermeasures in autonomous transportation systems. This special section will focus on (but not limited to) the following topics: - Methods for detection of cyber-physical attacks in transportation systems - Design of countermeasures for cyber-physical attacks in transportation systems - Hardware solutions for mitigating the attacks on controller area networks of automotive - Protocol and semantics agnostic security solutions to automotive CPS - Formal modeling of cyber-physical attacks in transportation systems - Privacy preserving solutions for cyber-physical transportation systems - Cyber-physical threats in platoons/swarms - Scalability of the security solutions in autonomous transportation systems - Blockchain solutions against cyber-physical threats in autonomous transportation systems - Security testing of vulnerabilities in automotive CPS *Manuscript Preparation and Submission* Follow the guidelines in “Information for Authors” in theIEEE Transaction on Industrial Informatics http://www.ieeeies.org/pubs/transactions-on-industrial-informatics <https://apc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ieeeie…> .

December 6-9, 2021 *IoTNAT 2021 CFP* The Internet of Things (IoT) technology offers unprecedented opportunities to interconnect human beings as well as Machine-to-Machine (M2M), whereby sensors and networks allow all ‘things’ to communicate directly with each other to share vital information allowing us to have an instrumented universe where accurate data is readily available to inform optimal decision making. The IoT is about to enable a range of new capabilities and services far beyond today’s offerings. It will fundamentally change how people go about their lives. According to Gartner, the number of objects connected to the Internet is set to reach 20 billion by 2021. Cisco estimates the number will be close to 26 billion objects by 2021. Others believe the actual number will be even higher with the assumption that any object with a simple micro controller and on-off switch will be connected to the Internet in the near feature. The scale of the IoT is set to have a major economic, social and environmental impacts; the intersection of which forms the future sustainable growth. The IEEE International Workshop on Internet of Things: Networking Applications and Technologies (IoTNAT 2021) Symposium will be held in conjunction with The Fifth International Conference on Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC 2021).

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE Access Special Issue - Internet of Space: Networking Architectures and Protocols to Support Space-Based Internet Services Datum: Mon, 27 Sep 2021 14:30:22 +0000 Von: Tomaso de Cola <Tomaso.deCola(a)DLR.DE> Antwort an: Tomaso.deCola(a)DLR.DE An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG (apologize for cross-posting) IEEE Access Special Issue - Internet of Space: Networking Architectures and Protocols to Support Space-Based Internet Services Submission Deadline: 30 November 2021 IEEE Access invites manuscript submissions in the area of Internet of Space: Networking Architectures and Protocols to Support Space-Based Internet Services. This Special Section is focused on the most recent scientific research and insights on the evolution of communication architectures and protocols for an Internet of Space, able to boost the creation of a truly global Internet by means of the integration of the current Internet with a new Internet of Space. Such evolution is expected to have a significant impact on several markets such as IoT/Industrial IoT, Mobile services, Industry 4.0, Government enterprise, and Connected mobility. The section shall cover work focused on aspects such as how to support the operation of Tier-1, Tier-2 or even Tier-3 airborne/spaceborne networks; how to address interoperability, within and across different protocol layers in the network architecture, leveraging cross-layer design; and finally how to design a more unified next generation Internet architecture able to transparently include spaceborne and airborne platforms in a way that allows for user-centric services, and a smooth operation of transient networks. However, an original and competent Internet of Space, calls for the definition of a networking framework able to accommodate specific properties of dynamic systems, including heterogeneous physical layers, frequent changes in network topology, high propagation delays, and intermittent connectivity. The dominant success factor for such a networking framework is low-cost bandwidth, although its capability to support low latency and high-throughput services plays an important role. Secondly, a global Internet is only possible with a transparent integration of an Internet of Space with the current Internet, while supporting multi-tenants, multi-systems in different orbits and altitudes, as well as multiple markets. Such an integration requires rethinking the Internet architecture in order to extend its operation to all systems above the Earth's surface, which requires the integration of heterogeneous communication devices and protocols. Such a unifying networking framework will have a truly global reach, allowing the connection between information producers and consumers in any corner of Earth and Space. Last but not least, the seamless integration of an Internet of Space with the current Internet will lead to a global empowerment, providing information access to everyone who may need it to sustain enriched human life, while mitigating some of the major limitations of a network infrastructure that is built on Earth's surface, which is subjected not only to geographic limits but also to political limits. >From a technical perspective this Special Section is focused on the design and performance evaluation of networking architectures and protocols for the Internet of Space, as well as on a more unified design that best deals with the networking challenges to be faced. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Network architectures, able to support multi-tenants, multi-systems in different orbits and altitudes, as well as multiple markets, while being transparently integrated in the current Internet architecture. Such new, unifying, network architecture may require the exploitation of paradigms such as Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN), and Information Centric Networking (ICN). * Network virtualization, leveraging well-known technologies such as Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV), as well as their integration with the emerging concept of Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC), allowing the virtualization of networking, storage and computing fabrics at the edge, required for the offloading of tasks that have latency constraints from the core to the edge. * Decentralized Internet Infrastructure, allowing a scalable Internetworking between computing processes and service hosted at the network edge (including flying platforms and spaceborne platforms, such as smart satellite constellations), leading to an end-to-end latency reduction due to user proximity, as well as a reduction of network traffic through traffic localization and device-to-device communications. * Network management, such as support for the global orchestration of network functions on board spaceborne platforms (e.g., satellites) to best support data processing and aggregation; seamless interoperation of mobile Edge infrastructure and devices; resilience and seamless adaptation based on the capability to anticipate the behavior of services on a global scale. * Cognitive networking, in which programmable spaceborne networks allow networked devices to perform customized computation, including the usage of Artificial Intelligence. Such cognitive functions will be exploited to develop more intelligent, adaptive networks, able to perceive network conditions, decide upon those conditions, and learn from the consequences of its actions. * Networking protocols, including support for inter-satellite communications, and satellite to ground communications, Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE), integrated security, and mobility, and their integration with existing protocols such as IP routing (e.g. segment routing), transport protocols from the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) to Quick UDP Internet Connections (QUIC), and application protocols such as Domain Name Service (DNS). * Wireless technologies, including not only the usage of radio frequency systems but also free space optical systems, and a combination of both. * Network measurement & performance, to assist in understanding and exposing the performance of spaceborne networking resources, infrastructure, and available communication protocols in a variety of ground-to-space, inter-satellite communication scenarios. * Privacy, security and trustworthiness, assuming end-to-end scenarios involving satellites with computational and storage capabilities, and covering aspects such as data security, decentralized trust architectures. * Impact on Internet services, such as advanced IoT services (e.g., Augmented Reality/Virtual Reality in manufacturing or farming) served by spaceborne platforms and spaceborne communications; real-time IoT applications (e.g., critical monitoring of public infrastructures); awareness services (e.g., public safety services). * Impact on data management aspects, including the support of the next generation of Edge computing in space, as well as a fast cooperation between a large set of Edge-based producers of data. We also highly recommend the submission of multimedia with each article as it significantly increases the visibility and downloads of articles. Associate Editor: Rute C.

Accepted manuscripts will be published without waiting for later submissions.]* ================= MDPI Drones (ISSN 2504-446X), https://www.mdpi.com/journal/drones Special Issue on *Unmanned Aerial Vehicle-Assisted Cooperative Air and Ground Communications* *=================* *Dear Colleagues and Friends,*We are pleased to announce the new Special Issue on the topic of "Cooperative Air and Ground Communications". https://www.mdpi.com/journal/drones/special_issues/UAVCommunication ================= *Call for Papers* Drones, or what is commonly known as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), could be involved in a wide range of applications, spanning from the agricultural domain, disaster management, and on-demand emergency communications, to environmental monitoring, 3D mapping, and remote sensing. With the recent advent of beyond 5G (B5G) and upcoming 6G networks, UAVs have seen impressive growth of demand from researchers, practitioners, and investors in multidisciplinary fields, particularly in relation to the design of alternative UAV-assisted solutions to handle the different constraints encountered in traditional protocols, applications, and systems. For instance, UAVs could be deployed as relays to bridge communication gaps of terrestrial networks witnessing instability on data transmission, such as base stations, to extend the coverage and performance of 5G/B5G terrestrial cellular networks, and as data collectors to gather information from Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, the assistance of UAVs to such systems and applications always raises a lot of exciting new challenges in terms of energy consumption, positioning and trajectory optimization, communications, and security, just to name a few. From the B5G point of view, the current UAV assistance paradigms should also be revised to explicitly consider different features, such as computing, network management, intelligent decisions, and energy efficiency. The potential of the UAV assistance paradigm paves a path towards many advantages, including flexibility of deployment, reduced risk of dangerous environments, agility in missions, and efficiency in communications. However, various open challenges are still to be tackled to ensure its correct deployment. This Special Issue (SI) targets novel scientific ideas, schemes, results, possible applications, and new challenges and perspectives devoted to the UAV assistance paradigm and everything around UAV networks. The particular topics of interest for this SI include but are not limited to: 1. Networking solutions for UAV-assisted communications. 2. Cloud, fog, and edge computing architecture for UAV-assisted systems. 3. SDN and NFV for UAV communications. 4. Positioning and trajectory optimization for UAV-assisted systems. 5. Machine learning algorithms for UAV-assisted systems. 6. UAV-to-everything (U2X). 7. Testbed and validation for UAV-assisted systems. 8. Energy efficiency in UAV-assisted applications. 9. Energy harvesting in UAV-assisted systems. 10. Mobile edge computing in UAV-assisted systems. 11. NDN in UAV-assisted systems. 12. Data gathering in UAV-assisted networks. 13. Security, trust, and privacy in UAV-assisted networks. 14. UAV–UGV coordination. 15. UAV–IoT networks. 16. UAV-enabled smart city. 17. UAV-assisted VANETs, MANETs, WSNs, and cellular networks. * Deadline for manuscript submissions: 30 November 2021 * * [Earlier submissions will be handled as they come.

Wireless networking technologies are continuously evolving and have become a critical part of modern life, be it for communication services, media distribution, or sensing and actuation services within the Internet of Things (IoT) context. Appropriate resource management, applications design, and architectural networking paradigms are necessary to provide users with high quality experience in multimedia communication and services. Edge computing and data-driven artificial intelligence (AI) techniques are becoming essential tools to cope with the increasing diversity of connected devices and the plethora of new data-intensive and latency-sensitive applications requested by end-users. At the same time, the interoperability among IoT environments (including wearable computing and sensors), the network edge, and the cloud are leading towards an edge-cloud continuum that is expected to support a more efficiently diverse range of application domains and services. In this context, providing rich sets of measurements for characterizing, detecting, and understanding the behavior of such complex systems is of paramount importance. IEEE WoWMoM 2022 takes a broad view and seeks papers describing innovative research contributions to the field of mobile and wireless networking and applications. We solicit papers that present original work, validated by experimentation, simulation, or analysis.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] The 1st International Workshop on Negative Results in Pervasive Computing (PerFail) within PerCom2022 Datum: Tue, 7 Sep 2021 12:51:43 +0300 Von: Ella Peltonen <ella.peltonen(a)INSIGHT-CENTRE.ORG> Antwort an: Ella Peltonen <ella.peltonen(a)INSIGHT-CENTRE.ORG> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG First International Workshop on Negative Results in Pervasive Computing (PerFail) to be hosted together with PerCom 2022! Not all research leads to fruitful results, trying new ways or methods may surpass the state of the art, but sometimes the hypothesis is not proven or the improvement is insignificant. But failure to succeed is not failure to progress and this workshop aims to create a platform for sharing insights, experiences, and lessons learned when conducting research in the area of pervasive computing. While the direct outcome of negative results might not contribute much to the field, the wisdom of hindsight could be a contribution itself, such that other researchers could avoid falling into similar pitfalls. We consider negative results to be studies that are run correctly (in the light of the current state of the art) and in good practice, but fail in terms of proving of the hypothesis or come up with no significance. The “badness” of the work can also come out as a properly but unfittingly designed data collection, or (non-trivial) lapses of hindsight especially in measurement studies. Please consider submitting your max 6 page paper (but also shorter are considered by November 14, 2021.

Now in its 21st year, IPSN has been at the forefront of the development of today’s "smart" systems. IPSN brings together researchers from academia, industry, and government to present and discuss recent advances in both theoretical and experimental research on all aspects of networked systems of sensors and actuators. Its scope includes signal and image processing, information and coding theory, databases and information management, distributed algorithms, networks and protocols, wireless communications, collaborative objects, the Internet of Things, machine learning, mobile and social sensing, and embedded systems design. Of special interest are contributions at the confluence of multiple of these areas. IPSN 2022 is part of the CPS-IoT Week, the premier venue for research and development of cyber-physical systems. IPSN is co-sponsored by both the ACM and IEEE, and it continues to emphasize research that bridges multiple research communities. IPSN is interested in all aspects of sensor networks, ranging from traditional topics such as networking to more recent developments such as embedded machine learning and computer vision. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Systems, Architectures, and Tools == Sensor data storage, retrieval, processing == Network and system architectures and protocols == IoT gateway platform architecture and services == Programming models, languages, and systems == Programming models for IoT ensembles == Modeling, simulation, and measurement tools == Operating systems and runtime environments == Discovery, coordination, and use of IoT services == IoT reliability, adaptability, and dependability == Technical assessment of emerging IoT standards * Algorithms, Data, and Theory == Localization, synchronization, RFID, and RF sensing == Data related issues, such as methods, tools, and analysis == Coding, compression, and information theory == Theoretical foundations and fundamental bounds * Applications == Applications in health, wellness & sustainability == Applications in smart cities and urban health == Experiences, challenges, comparisons of platforms == Sensor-enabled drone / autonomous vehicle platforms and algorithms == Outdoor, wide-area, or crowdsourced sensing systems == Wearable systems and data processing algorithms * Security and Privacy == Security and privacy == Fairness, equity, and transparency issues in IoT and CPS * Machine Learning == Machine learning and deep learning on sensor data == New hardware and system design to enable machine learning on sensor data == Computer vision for resource-constrained and mobile platforms == Novel embedded machine learning algorithms ******** Main Conference Awards ******** In addition to the established Best Paper Award, IPSN 2022 may provide a Best Research Artifact Award to the authors who have contributed the research artifact that is judged to be the most novel, easy to use, well documented, and useful to advance research. Research artifacts, such as code, data sets, and tools, are highly encouraged to be submitted or made available simultaneously with paper submission. ******** Submission Process ******** IPSN 2022 accepts double-blind paper submissions which have not been previously published. Posted technical reports (ArXiv or similar) do not count as prior publication and do not violate the double-blind requirement. Submitted manuscripts are up to 12 pages, inclusive of figures, tables, and references, following the ACM master article template. Papers are to be submitted at https://ipsn2022.hotcrp.com/. During the review process, the reviewers may anonymously communicate with the authors for clarifying questions. IPSN collaborates closely with the IoTDI conference, given the proximity in research themes (both related to IoT) and the co-location in CPS-IoT Week. We provide submission guidelines to aid prospective authors with the conference venue selection. In the meantime, we would like to make explicit that double submission remains prohibited under ACM's policy of Prior Publication and Simultaneous Submissions. In 2022 and to foster a closer joint-community, we would invite quality submissions to one venue for publication at the other, in case we find fit and the authors agree. ******** Key Dates ******** Paper Abstract Registration: October 22nd, 2021 11:59pm AoE (UTC-12) Paper Submission Deadline: (Firm*): October, 29th 2021 11:59pm AoE (UTC-12) Acceptance Notification: January 17th, 2022 IPSN Conference: May 4th -- 6th, 2022 CPS Week: May 3rd -- 6th, 2022 ******** Organizers ******** * General Chair Marilyn Wolf (University of Nebraska-Lincoln) * Technical Program Committee Chairs Yanyong Zhang (University of Science and Technology of China) Nic Lane (University of Cambridge and Samsung AI) * Technical Program Committee Nova Ahmed, North South University Muhammad Hamad Alizai, Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS) Saurabh Bagchi, Purdue University Yingying (Jennifer) Chen, Rutgers University Jie Gao, Stony Brook University Maria Gorlatova, Duke University Jeremy Gummeson, University of Massachusetts -- Amherst Tao Guoliang, Macquarie University Yuan He, Tsinghua University Josiah Hester, Northwestern University Wen Hu, University of New South Wales and CSIRO Polly Huang, National Taiwan University Carlee Joe-Wong, Carnegie Mellon University Brano Kusy, Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) Stefanos Laskaridis, Samsung AI Youngki Lee, Seoul National University Mo Li, Nanyang Technological University Chris Xiaoxuan Lu, University of Edinburgh Anna Maria Mandalari, Imperial College London Akhil Mathur, Nokia Bell Labs Klara Nahrstedt, University of Illinois Urbana -- Champaign Jin Nakazawa, Keio University Akshay Nambi, Microsoft Research Jorge Ortiz, Rutgers University Shijia Pan, University of California -- Merced Pat Pannuto, University of California -- San Diego Partha Roop, University of Auckland Olga Saukh, TU Graz and CSH Vienna Longfei Shangguan, Microsoft Guoliang Xing, The Chinese University of Hong Kong Wei Xing, Xi'an Jiaotong University Chenren Xu, Peking University Lina Yao, University of New South Wales Shuochao Yao, George Mason University Qian Zhang, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Rong Zheng, McMaster University Ashwin Ashok, On behalf of IPSN'22 Publicity Team ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [IEEE VNC 2021] Call for posters and demos Datum: Wed, 25 Aug 2021 10:40:25 +0200 Von: Michele Segata <michele.segata(a)UNIBZ.IT> Antwort an: Michele Segata <michele.segata(a)UNIBZ.IT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear colleagues, please find below the Call for posters and demos for IEEE VNC 2021. IEEE VNC 2021 - Call for Posters and Demos 13th IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference (VNC) November 10-12, 2021 Hybrid event (Ulm, Germany and online) https://ieee-vnc.org/2021/ Now in its 13th year, VNC has been the primary venue for people interested in vehicular communication to meet. Last year, VNC 2020 featured a very different format. While some attendees called it the best online-conference they attended in 2020, not meeting in person is only the second best option. In 2021, the organizing team is therefore committed to bring back the opportunity to meet in-person again. As the development of the pandemic over the next months and thus the possibilities to travel to and meet in a conference venue in November are hard to predict, we made the decision to plan VNC 2021 in a hybrid format where we aim for an equally good conference experience for both presenters and attendees no matter if you attend on-site or remotely. You will be able to register for the online conference and book an add-on package for on-site participation even on relatively short notice, leaving you all options open as long as possible. We therefore encourage authors to submit their research to VNC 2021 and enjoy the best of both worlds: on-site presentations and meetings with the VNC community if possible; or an excellent online experience if travel cannot be arranged. VNC 2021 is seeking for poster and demo papers about the following topics. Connectivity - 5G and beyond-5G technologies for connected vehicles - Emerging V2X communication technologies, including dynamic spectrum sharing, mmWave, massive MIMO, beamforming, and vehicular visible light communications - Networking, transport and QoS management for vehicular networks - In-vehicle communication and networking systems - Radio for vehicular networks (e.g., channel measurements, propagation models, antenna design) Architecture and System Design - Heterogeneous vehicular networking (e.g., multi-radio, multi-channel, multi-application, multi-technology, multi-operator) and coexistence of access technologies - Architectures and system designs for connected automated driving - Cloud and edge computing for vehicular applications - Security, privacy, liability, and dependability of vehicular networks - Integration of V2C communications with on-board systems and networks Tools & Methods - Hardware and software platforms for simulation, emulation, prototyping, measurement, and/or real-world deployment of vehicular networks and applications - Field measurements and/or real-world deployments of vehicular networks and applications - Optimization techniques (e.g., linear programming, machine learning) with unique benefits for vehicular applications - Modeling, design, and analysis of vehicular networks and applications Applications - Cooperative perception and cooperative driving - Innovative vehicular network applications and their communication requirements - Vulnerable road user protection - Vehicular networks and IoT integration - Impact assessments of vehicular networks on transportation (e.g., safety, efficiency, comfort, privacy, and environmental sustainability) All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed. The Best Paper Award, selected by a committee, will be given to the paper with the highest impact. Conference content will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore as well as other Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases. Deadlines: ---------- 01 Sep 2021: Poster and Demo submissions due (final) 16 Sep 2021: Acceptance notifications 30 Sep 2021: Camera ready versions due 10 Nov 2021: Conference starts (virtually and in Ulm, Germany) Submission Types: ----------------- Posters are especially suited for presenting controversial research directions that may generate discussion, or promising ideas not yet fully validated through complete extensive evaluation. They are limited to at most two (2) pages and their title must begin with "Poster:". Demonstration (demo) papers are suited for researchers to showcase their latest prototypes with media, models, or live demonstrations. They are limited to at most two (2) pages and their title must begin with "Demo:". Submission Process: ------------------- Submitted papers must be IEEE compliant Adobe PDF files written in English, formatted in standard IEEE two-column format with a font size no less than 10-point. Reviewing is not double-blind, so authors may include their names, affiliations, and other identifying information in submitted manuscripts. Only compliant files will be accepted for review. All submissions must be made electronically through EDAS. Detailed submission instructions will be made available on the conference website, https://ieee-vnc.org/2021/ Organizing Committee: --------------------- General Co-Chairs Frank Kargl, Ulm University, Germany Onur Altintas, Toyota Motor North America R&D, USA TPC Co-Chairs Christoph Sommer, TU-Dresden, Germany Takamasa Higuchi, Toyota Motor North America R&D, USA Poster/Demo Co-Chairs Lara Codeca', Trinity College Dublin, Ireland Ahmed Hamdi Sakr, University of Windsor, Canada Panel Chair Jim Lansford, Qualcomm, USA Publication Chair Florian Klingler, Paderborn University, Germany Publicity Co-Chairs Susumu Ishihara, Shizuoka University, Japan Michele Segata, Free University of Bolzano, Italy Web & IT Chairs Ala'a Al-Momani, Ulm University, Germany Dominik Mauksch, Ulm University, Germany Finance Chair Bruce Worthman, IEEE Steering Committee Onur Altintas, Toyota Motor North America R&D Wai Chen, China Mobile Research Institute, China Falko Dressler, TU Berlin, Germany Geert Heijenk, University of Twente, The Netherlands Thomas Luckenbach, FOKUS, Germany Hyun Seo Oh, ETRI, South Korea Umit Ozguner, Ohio State University, USA Tadao Saito, Professor Emeritus, The University of Tokyo, Japan ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
