Posters/Workshops/Tutorial/Demos/Exhibits all due on March 3, 2005 (23:59EST) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ http://www.autonomic-conference.org To deal with the increasing complexity of large-scale computer and software systems, they must manage themselves, in accordance with high-level guidance from humans - a vision that has been referred to as autonomic computing. Meeting the grand challenges of autonomic computing requires scientific and technological advances in a wide variety of fields, as well as new software and system architectures that support the effective integration of the constituent technologies. The purpose of the 2nd International Conference on Autonomic Computing (ICAC'05) is to bring together researchers from different fields of research who are addressing aspects of self- management in computing systems. In doing so, we hope to develop and nurture a community that can work together to realize the vision of large-scale self-managing systems. Papers are solicited on a broad array of topics of relevance to autonomic computing; particularly those that bear on connections and relationships among different areas of research or report on prototype systems or experiences. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Autonomic computing systems or prototype systems that exhibit self-monitoring, self-configuration, self- optimization, self-healing, and/or self-protection. - Software architectures for self-managing systems, based on Open Grid Services, Web Services, or novel paradigms based on biological, economic, social, or other analogies. - Specific self-managing components, such as server, client, database, storage, or network elements. Emphasis should be placed on interactions with other components, or techniques or lessons that may generalize to other components. - Toolkits, environments, models, languages, runtime and compiler technologies for building self-managing components, systems or applications. - New technologies supporting system management, such as service-level agreements, negotiation or conversation support, and behavior enforcement. - System-level technologies, middleware or services that entail interactions among two or more components of self- managing systems, such as health monitoring, dependency analysis, problem localization or remediation, workload management, and provisioning. - Interfaces to autonomic systems, including user interfaces, interfaces for monitoring and controlling behavior, and techniques for defining, distributing, and understanding policies. - Fundamental science of self-managing systems: understanding, controlling, or exploiting emergent behavior, theoretical investigations of coupled feedback loops, predictive methods, robustness, and related topics. - Experiences with autonomic system or component prototypes: measurements, evaluations, or analyses of system behavior, user studies, or experiences with large-scale deployments of self-managing systems or applications. POSTER SUBMISSIONS Posters authors should submit 2-page posters electronically (PDF or postscript) via the ICAC-05 conference web site at http://www.autonomic-conference.org/submission.html The IEEE CS style files can be found at ftp://pubftp.computer.org/Press/Outgoing/proceedings/.

24 Feb '05

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] Call for papers: Wireless Mesh Networking Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2005 15:00:23 -0500 (EST) From: Xudong Wang <wxudong(a)ece.gatech.edu> To: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu CC: wxudong(a)ieee.org, bahl(a)microsoft.com, schoi(a)snu.ac.kr, Jean-Pierre.Hubaux(a)epfl.ch [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP] ============================================================== Call for Papers IEEE Wireless Communications Magazine, Special Issue on Wireless Mesh Networking: Theories, Protocols, and Systems http://www.comsoc.org/pubs/pcm/mesh_cfp.htm ============================================================== Wireless mesh networking has become an indispensable technique for the next generation wireless networks. It is critical to large-scale wireless networks with no pre-existing infrastructure. It enables quick-and-easy extension of a local area network into a wide area. Prior efforts on wireless networks, especially multi-hop ad hoc networks, have led to significant research contributions that range from fundamental results on theoretical capacity bounds to various flavors of routing and transport protocols. However, the work is far from enough. The state-of-art is insufficient for deploying sizable wireless mesh networks. Important aspects such as network radio range, network capacity, scalability, manageability, and security remain open problems. To address capacity and scaling concerns, researchers are experimenting with systems that use multiple radios, frequency-agile radios, directional and multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antennas. Further, there are renewed interests in carrying out research on MAC protocols and cross-layer design that breaks the traditional networking layering norm. It is clear that such novel techniques are needed to increase system capacity, extend network range, and increase scale, if such networks are to become viable. Similarly, while there exist several security protocols for wireless networks, especially for IEEE 802.11 WLANs, it is still not clear how one can build a trustworthy network in a multi-hop ad hoc environment like wireless mesh networks. Finally, although new research results are published each year, progress on practical protocol implementation and system integration has lagged considerably. To ensure wireless mesh networks to be widely deployed, many research groups are starting to accumulate practical experience through building testbeds and deploying trial systems. In parallel to these efforts, several IEEE standard groups are also actively pursuing wireless mesh networking techniques. This special issue is devoted to the research and development of practical, deployable, and low-cost wireless mesh networks. Papers from both industry and academia will be solicited through an open call-for-papers. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to, -- Techniques for capacity and range extension -- Multi-radio, multi-spectral systems -- Cognitive and frequency-agile radios -- Multichannel MACs, MAC protocol for directional antennas and MIMO systems -- High-performance scalable single-channel MACs -- Programmable MACs -- Cross-layer design and optimization -- Trustworthy networks, privacy and security models -- Incentives, cooperation, and reputation systems -- Mobility, power, and topology management -- Network management with zero-configuration -- Practical system architecture of wireless mesh networks -- Testbed and deployment experience -- Application and usage scenarios -- Emerging standards: IEEE 802.11s, IEEE 802.15.5, IEEE 802.16 mesh, IEEE 802.20 mesh ============================================================== SUBMISSION Manuscript Due: April 1, 2005 Acceptance Notification: August 15, 2005 Final Manuscript Due: October 15, 2005 Publication: December, 2005 Prospective authors should follow the following guidelines to prepare their manuscripts: http://www.comsoc.org/pubs/pcm/pub_guidelines.html Please send PDF (preferred), Microsoft Word, or PostScript formatted papers to Xudong Wang (wxudong(a)ieee.org) no later than April 1, 2005. ============================================================== GUEST EDITORS Xudong Wang Senior Staff Research Engineer Kiyon, Inc.

[Fwd: First Call for Paper Workshop Sicherheit in komplexen, vernetzten Umgebungen]
by Lars Wolf 23 Feb '05

23 Feb '05

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: First Call for Paper Workshop Sicherheit in komplexen, vernetzten Umgebungen Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2005 18:16:49 +0100 From: Michael Meier <mm(a)INFORMATIK.TU-COTTBUS.DE> Reply-To: Mailing List der GI FG 3.3.1 "Kommunikation und Verteilte Systeme" <KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE> To: KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V. Fachgruppe SIDAR Call for Papers Workshop Sicherheit in komplexen, vernetzten Umgebungen Im Zeitraum 19.-22. September 2005 Bonn, Deutschland Workshop im Rahmen der 35. Jahrestagung "Informatik LIVE!" der Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V. www.gi-fg-sidar.de/skvu2005 Einen unaufhaltsamen Trend der heutigen Informationsgesellschaft stellt die zunehmende Vernetzung von Computersystemen in den unterschiedlichen Bereichen dar. Den vielfältigen sich daraus ergebenden Vorteilen steht eine zunehmende Menge von Bedrohungen entgegen, die auf vielen Ebenen einen Einfluss auf das Leben und die Gesellschaft haben können. Getreu dem Motto "Informatik LIVE!" der diesjährigen Jahrestagung der Gesell- schaft für Informatik möchte sich der hier beschriebene Workshop mit diesen Einflüssen und gezielten Reaktionen darauf auseinandersetzen. Die Ziele und Methoden der "klassischen" Informationssicherheit werden auch in zukünftigen komplexen vernetzten Umgebungen Bestand haben, jedoch verlagern sich die Schwerpunkte und Abhängigkeiten zusehends. So stehen beispielsweise Fragestellungen wie Verfügbarkeit und Modell- ierung von Vertrauen in solchen Umgebungen eher im Mittelpunkt als Verfahren zur Sicherstellung von Vertraulichkeit und Integrität. Vor diesem Hintergrund möchte dieser Workshop den Dialog zwischen Experten aus dem Bereich der Informationssicherheit anregen und vertiefen. Dieser Workshop soll - ergänzend zu etablierten Veranstaltungen dieser Art - aktuelle Erkenntnisse und Ergebnisse von Forschungsarbeiten zu- sammentragen, die Lösungen für die sich aus der verstärkten Vernetzung ergebenden Probleme anbieten. Über die Vorstellung von Forschungser- gebnissen hinaus können Konzepte für zukünftige Arbeiten, praktische Erfahrungen und praxisrelevante Erkenntnisse zum Wert dieser Veranstal- tung beitragen. Hintergrund =========== Der Gedanke der angestrebten komplexen Vernetzung von Systemen (als wesentliche Voraussetzung für die Vision eines Ubiquitous Computing) hält in verschiedenen Bereichen Einzug. Durch die Vernetzung von Computersystemen sind kürzeste Wege zwischen Sensoren und Effektoren sowie dadurch bedingt eine erhebliche Verkürzung von Entscheidungspro- zessen möglich geworden, sodass Informationen schnellstmöglich an allen Orten zur Verfügung stehen, an denen sie gebraucht werden. Damit kann man eine erhebliche Steigerung der Effektivität erzielen. Eine intensive Vernetzung zieht eine Reihe von Implikationen auf Archi- tekturen und Systeme nach sich, denen beim Entwurf und der Entwicklung von Verfahren zur Aufrechterhaltung der Informationssicherheit in ver- stärktem Maße Rechnung zu tragen ist. Hierzu gehören: - Komplexe Verknüpfungen von Sicherheitsdiensten (z. B. Zugriffskontrolle, Vertraulichkeit und Non-Repudiation). - komplexere Modelle für Vertrauen (Trust), - besonders große und heterogene Kommunikationsumgebungen (draht- gebunden vs. drahtlos, stationär vs. mobil), - Verknüpfung unterschiedlicher Sicherheitsdomänen und Netzüber- gänge (z. B. durch Information Flow Control), - Ressourcen-Transparenz (die sich auch Angreifer zunutze machen können). Im Rahmen des Workshops soll sich ein breiteres Verständnis für die zukünftig wichtigen Themengebiete und Methodiken entwickeln. Ebenso soll sich eine Diskussion der Sicherheitsrisiken ergeben, die trotz neuartiger Ansätze entstehen können. Insgesamt können so Bereiche auf- gezeigt werden, denen bislang noch zu wenig Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt wurde, in denen aber noch wesentliche Forschungsarbeiten zu leisten sind. Themenvorschläge ================ Es wird um die Einreichung von Beiträgen aus den folgenden und verwand- ten Gebieten - unter spezieller Berücksichtigung des geschilderten Hintergrundes - gebeten: - Intrusion Detection / Response in integrierten Sicherheits- architekturen (z.B. Software Embedded Sensors), - Kooperierende Sicherheitssysteme für Koalitionsumgebungen, - Intruder Tracing / Forensische Analyse in transparenten dynami- schen Netzen, - Intrusion Detection / Response / Tolerance in mobilen Ad-hoc- Netzen, - Sicherheit in Sensornetzen, - Dynamische Modellierung von Sicherheitsrichtlinien (Policies), - Integration von Honeypots, Honeynets und Honeytokens in beste- hende Sicherheitsysteme. Einreichungen ============= Jeder Beitrag wird von mehreren Gutachtern des Programmkomitees bewer- tet. Angenommene Beiträge werden auf dem Workshop präsentiert und dis- kutiert. Die Beiträge werden im Tagungsband der INFORMATIK 2005 ver- öffentlicht, der in der von der GI herausgegebenen Reihe "Lecture Notes in Informatics LNI" erscheinen wird. Akzeptierte Beiträge sollen bis zu 5 Seiten umfassen.

While most of these wireless technologies are deployed independently for now, the service providers surely intend to own and operate overlaid heterogeneous wireless systems, which integrate multiple wireless technologies with partially overlapped coverage areas and provide ubiquitous network service to mobile users. Recent advances in reconfigurable computing have greatly advanced the design of soft radios, which enable the communication with many different radios with only a reconfiguration in software parameters. The maturation of soft radio technology is becoming one of the most important milestones for seamless integration of the heterogeneous wireless network. Serving as the "glue", the soft radio technology has its niche in in two folds: (1) the network infrastructure can be built upon soft radio, where the base stations are tunable to different frequency bands and serve as general access points for various mobile hosts (MHs), e.g., cellular handsets, laptops, and PDA's (Personal Digital Assistants); and (2) the MHs may employ soft radio, and accordingly, get access to various wireless systems (such as wireless LAN, cellular, IEEE 802.20, and IEEE 802.16), providing ubiquitous service for mobile users. An important design issue is to capitalize on the recent achievement in soft radio technology for providing improved and more efficient connectivity and service in heterogeneous wireless networks. With this special issue we aim at bringing together state-of-the-art contributions in this emerging area of soft radio-enabled heterogeneous wireless networks. We are seeking for papers reporting novel research or commercial/industrial experiences. These papers should be original, unpublished, and not currently under review by other conference, workshop, or journal. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: - System optimization - Efficient spectrum allocation and management - Dynamic network topology discovery and optimization - Smart handoff and inter-system signaling - Quality of service in the heterogeneous networks - Routing and load balancing - Mobility management - System modeling and performance evaluation - Cognitive radio and testbed design * PUBLICATION SCHEDULE: o MANUSCRIPT DUE: March 1, 2005 o ACCEPTANCE NOTIFICATION: May 31, 2005 o FINAL MANUSCRIPT DUE: July 1, 2005 o EXPECTED PUBLICATION DATE: First Quarter, 2006 * SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: Authors should email an electronic (Postscript or PDF) copy of their papers to Dr. Hongyi Wu, wu(a)cacs.louisiana.edu, by March 1, 2005.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: E-NEXT.members: Extended Deadline - MSAN 2005 (Multimedia Services Access Networks) Date: Fri, 18 Feb 2005 13:12:08 +0100 From: Rolland Vida <Rolland.Vida(a)tmit.bme.hu> To: <members(a)ist-e-next.net> +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ Please accept our apologies for multiple copies +--------------------------------------------------------------------+ Dear Colleagues, Please find below the CFP for MSAN 2005, the First International Conference on Multimedia Services Access Networks (http://msan.org/). Note that we have extended two weeks ago the submission deadline to February 18, 2005. However, due to some server problems, the web page of the conference was not accessible for a couple of days this week. Moreover, even now you can find only an old version of the official page at the above address, with the deadline still set to February 4. Therefore, please disregard the information on the page, and keep in mind that the correct deadline is February 18. We are sorry for this inconvenience. If you have a paper to submit, and you still need a couple of days to finish it, please write an e-mail to the TPC Co-chair Francesco G.B. De Natale (denatale(a)ing.unitn.it). Please note also, that there will be four workshops co-located with MSAN: - BWAN 2005: International Workshop on Broadband Wireless Access Network on fixed network (http://www.bwan.org/) - COMNETS 2005: Deployment Models and Technologies for Broadband Community Networks (http://www.comnets.org/) - AAA-IDEA 2005: International Workshop on Internet DElivery of Advanced Services (http://www.aaa-idea.org/) - SID-WAS 2005: International Workshop on Standardization, Interoperability and Deployment of Wireless Access Solutions (http://standardswireless.org/) The deadline for these workshops was extended to March 15, 2005 (on the website you can still find a February 4 deadline, which is obsolete as well). Best regards, Rolland Vida and Wenjing Lou MSAN publicity co-chairs ======================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS - MSAN 2005 First International Conference on Multimedia Services Access Networks Technically co-sponsored by IEEE Communications Society June 13-15, 2005, Orlando, Florida, USA http://msan.org ** SCOPE ** Access networks (the ‘last-’ or ‘first-’ mile according to provider’s or customer’s perspective) represent one of the most important parts in telecommunication systems, being responsible for the high-quality, reliable and secure delivery of services to end users. They also encompass some of the most demanding networking problems, such as the coexistence of a large variety of technologies based on both wired and wireless solutions, the need of optimal integration with the core network in terms of bandwidth and availability mismatch, the provision of an acceptable quality of service in very different application scenarios and traffic conditions. Perhaps, the most important challenge is that the design of access networks – from the analysis of requirements to the implementation and operation of the system – can only be successful if it is based on an integrated approach, taking into account the needs of different user groups, the technical constraints posed by different application technologies, as well as the related business and societal aspects. Within this framework, MSAN’05 is intended to provide a unique international forum to explore the new research frontiers in the field of current and next generation multimedia service access networks. Original unpublished contributions are solicited that can improve the knowledge and practice in the integrated design of efficient access technologies and the relevant provision of advanced multimedia applications. ** TOPICS OF INTEREST ** Topics of interest are organized in three tracks addressing respectively: access network technologies (with particular emphasis on network design methodologies, protocols, analysis of performance and quality of service); multimedia service delivery (mainly focusing on the integration/adaptation between multimedia data processing and transmission techniques and access networks characteristics); implementation, operation and performance (providing an opportunity to present innovative applications and testbeds for the above technologies, as well as new approaches to testing and performance evaluation). Topics of interest include but are not limited to: Track 1: Access technologies and networks in MSANs (technologies and protocols) - Wire-based access (PON, FTTx, xDSL) - Wireless fixed access solutions (802.11x and 802.16 networks) - Mobile and nomadic access (3G and beyond, WiFi, etc.) - Other emerging technologies (power lines, CATV, DOCSIS, FSO) - Integration/migration among different technologies (heterogeneous nets, seamless handover) - Integration with core network - Handling bandwidth and availability mismatch between optical and wireless Track 2: Delivery of multimedia services - Technologies for multimedia-multimodal services - Streaming over IP (VoIP, packet video, rate control, error control) - Scheduling and allocation of network resources (bandwidth allocation, power management, etc.) - Quality of service (at network and application level) - Terminals and devices - Security issues Track 3: MSAN implementation, operation and performance - Testbeds and laboratory experiments - Performance evaluation and measurements - Interoperability of last mile solutions - Case studies of novel networking solutions and services implemented - Application techniques, tools and experiences (e.g., health, tourism, e-government, entertainment) - Specific operation and management issues - Planning and design methodology and tools ** CHAIRS ** General Co-Chairs: Aggelos K.
