-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference (VNC 2021) Datum: Wed, 21 Apr 2021 20:41:28 +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 CfP for IEEE VNC 2021. IEEE VNC 2021 - Call for Papers 13th IEEE Vehicular Networking Conference (VNC) November 10-12, 2021 Ulm, Germany 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 papers 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 full and short papers, 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: ---------- 10 Jul 2021: Paper submissions due 1 Sep 2021: Poster and Demo submissions due 16 Sep 2021: Acceptance notifications 30 Sep 2021: Camera ready versions due 10 Nov 2021: Conference starts (virtually and in Ulm, Germany) Submission Types: ----------------- The conference will consider four categories of submissions: Full papers should describe novel research contributions and are limited in length to eight (8) printed pages including figures, tables, and references. Papers exceeding 8 pages will be declined automatically and will not be reviewed. Short papers should be more visionary in nature and may report on work-in-progress without fully finished results. They are meant to present novel perspectives, so as to foster discussions about innovative directions and new points of view. They are limited to at most four (4) pages including figures, tables, and references, but might in many cases be even shorter. Accepted short papers will be included in the proceedings and will be given (a shorter) time for oral presentation at the conference. 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:". Please note that these categories (in particular: full paper and short paper) target different kinds of contributions. Papers submitted to one category will NOT be moved to a different category: a paper will either be accepted in the category where it has been submitted, or it will be rejected (in particular: full papers will not be "downgraded" to short papers). Therefore, please be sure to carefully assess for yourself prior to submission which is the most suitable submission category for your paper, and to make sure that the presentation in the manuscript is well suited to the aims of this category. 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 -- Michele Segata, PhD Assistant Professor, Faculty of Computer Science University of Bolzano, Italy https://www.inf.unibz.it/~segata/ ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

This will not impact the publication of the DCOSS 2021 proceedings and accepted papers will be included in the IEEE Xplore Proceedings. The virtual program will include live sessions of invited speakers and author presentations, possibly supplemented by online material such as the papers, presentation slides and videos. Aims and Scope Recently, the rapid development of Unmanned Autonomous Vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, has highlighted a plethora of emergent applications such as infrastructure inspection and surveillance, smart agriculture, seek and rescue, parcel delivery, communications, and post-disaster recovery. In all these applications, UAVs may coexist with ground Internet of Things (IoT) devices. For example, UAVs autonomously perform remote sensing relaying the collected data by the sensors. Moreover, single or multiple UAVs can cooperatively collaborate providing services that require efficient protocols where multiple objectives and constraints should be accounted for. For this workshop, we seek papers that combine the design of algorithms and testbed implementations to develop the theoretical foundations for UAVs as well as the synergies with IoT devices. The numerous emergent applications raised by IoT may require an interdisciplinary approach, involving techniques from algorithm foundations and different areas, such as computer networks, artificial intelligence, concurrent, parallel and distributed computing, security, digital signal, image and sound processing. Topics of Interest - Autonomous sensing via UAVs - Topology monitoring with UAVs - Remote sensing networks via UAVs - Communication protocols of UAVs over IoT - Modeling and analysis of UAVs over IoT - Precision agriculture and UAVs - Crops monitoring in agriculture - Bugs monitoring in agriculture - UAVs for environmental monitoring - Autopilot and UAS autonomy - UAVs path planning and scheduling - Parcel delivery using UAVs - Cellular networks and UAVs - Constrained and multi-objectives problems - Sensors localization with UAVs - UAVs tracking techniques - Cooperative control of multiple UAVs - Cyber-security communications and UAVs - Optimal UAV deployment strategies - Test-beds and experimental results for UAVs - Single UAV applications - Multi-UAV applications - Energy-efficient UAV communications - Machine learning for UAV communications Important dates - Abstract Submission: May 14, 2021 - Paper Submission: May 21, 2021 - Acceptance Notification: June 11, 2021 - Final manuscript, camera ready: June 18, 2021 Submission Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on distributed sensor systems related to WiDroIt topics of interest.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: SI on Distributed Intelligence at the Edge for the Future Internet of Things (JPDC, deadline: May 31, 2021) Datum: Fri, 16 Apr 2021 15:12:57 +0200 Von: Anna Kobusińska <Anna.Kobusinska(a)CS.PUT.POZNAN.PL> Antwort an: Anna Kobusińska <Anna.Kobusinska(a)CS.PUT.POZNAN.PL> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG *CALL FOR PAPERS * Special Issue on *DISTRIBUTED INTELLIGENCE AT THE EDGE FOR THE FUTURE INTERNET OF THINGS* - / JOURNAL OF PARALLEL AND DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING//// / *WEBSITE:* https://www.journals.elsevier.com/journal-of-parallel-and-distributed-compu… **IMPOTRANT DATES:* *Submission deadline: 31-May-2021 Acceptance deadline: 31-Oct-2021 Publication: late 2021 * SCOPE*: Currently and even more in the future, business, industry, finance and retail, healthcare, media, entertainment and many others, are and will be completely managed, coordinated, and controlled using huge amounts of data. These operations are performed by the Internet of Things (IoT) system of connected computing, digital, and mechanical devices, all of them named using unique identifiers (UIDs) and able to transfer data over a network without human intervention. To extract value from such massive data volumes, processing power offered by cloud computing is still utilized. However, streaming data to the cloud exposes some limitations related to the increased communication and data transfer, which introduces delays and consumes network bandwidth. Another limitation that cloud-based computing for IoT poses is limited network connectivity. Therefore, the adoption of cloud computing to process data generated by IoT devices may not be applicable at all to classes of applications such as those needed for real-time, low latency, and mobile applications. Therefore, it is beyond imagination to use cloud computing to collect data, store, and work out results. Therefore, there has been a move towards mobile communication and edge computing. Billions of devices have been connected to the Internet and created zettabytes of data items. The problem remains on how to extract information from collected data best. The use of Artificial Intelligence, machine learning, neural network, and data analytic techniques in edge processing resulted in a new inter-disciplinary field that enables distributed intelligence with edge devices and is known as distributed edge AI or edge intelligence. However, research on edge AI and distributed edge AI is still relatively new, and thus models, techniques, and protocols supporting intelligent management, querying and mining of large-scale amounts of data produced at the edge are required. A lot of challenges related to providing edge intelligence include training edge devices, so they can become smarter and smarter. There is also a need of the presentation of the most recent outcome of research of distributed intelligence. This need could be illustrated by a smart city that contains for instance: garages, parkings, car washing systems, traffic unloading centrals etc. – usually belonging to different companies and running different protocols. A most likely scenario is that these devices could use different AI systems to support their activities. However, all of them are parts of one interconnected smart city; different AI systems must cooperate for common goal(s). Thus, we need distributed intelligence. Examples and different AI systems working for different edges could be multiplied; they support a variety of edges. All want to make money, kick competitors from the market out, and grab their systems. Furthermore, there is an emphasis on creating better software and algorithms that can run efficiently on resource-constrained devices. Moreover, purpose-built hardware at the edge is becoming increasingly important in the field of machine learning because companies can run software much more efficiently if they use specialized chips. Another key challenge of distributed edge AI will be the continued improvement of user interfaces that are used to communicate with other humans, including text, voice, vision, and different forms of body language. These only are some of the challenges of edge intelligence. This field is expected to arise in the upcoming years and become an essential part of the next generation of the Internet of Things that expands its reach into almost every domain. Therefore, this Special Issue seeks to identify and provide high-quality research on recent advances on edge AI and distributed edge AI. We are interested in all aspects pertaining to this multidisciplinary paradigm. *TOPICS OF INTEREST * Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: · Distributed Intelligence at the Edge · Modeling and Development of IoT applications using Edge AI · Distributed AI with/for Secure Edge Networking · Machine-Learning Algorithms for IoT Applications · Optimization, Control, And Automation in Edge Computing for IoT · Secure Intelligent IoT-Edge Systems · Secure Intelligent Coordination and Networking Between IoT, Edge, and Cloud · AI-Based Resource Allocation in IoT-Edge Systems · Trust and Privacy Management in Intelligent IoT-Edge Systems · Quality of Service and Energy Efficiency for Intelligent IoT-Edge Systems · Data Mining and Big Data Analytics for Security and Resource Management in IoT-Edge Systems · Distributed Ledger Technologies and Blockchain in IoT Environments *SUBMISSION GUIDELINES* Original, high-quality contributions that are not yet published or that are not currently under review by other journals or peer-reviewed conferences are sought.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Kuvs-l] NetSys 2021 - Second Call for Ext. Abstracts and Hot Topic Presentations Datum: Fri, 16 Apr 2021 15:13:30 +0200 Von: Mathias Fischer <mfischer(a)informatik.uni-hamburg.de> An: kuvs-l(a)lists.gi.de <kuvs-l(a)lists.gi.de> International Conference on Networked Systems 2021 13.-16. September 2021 - Lübeck, Germany https://netsys2021.org Second Call for Extended Abstracts and Hot Topic Papers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The conference on Networked Systems (NetSys 2021) is a traditional biennial event that provides an international forum for engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government to present and discuss recent innovations in the realm of networked systems. NetSys'21 is again a joint event organized by GI KuVS (GI, Communication and Distributed Systems) and VDE ITG (VDE, Information Technical Society) and additionally supported by IFIP TC6. The NetSys21 technical program focusses on original contributions in the area of networking and distributed systems and also features invited presentations on hot topics in networking and distributed systems, an industry session, separate workshops, tutorials, posters, demos, an early work track, and a PhD forum. Also included is the annual 1-day ITG expert symposium “Future of Networking” (Zukunft der Netze, ZdN) with invited technical presentations on advanced topics in networking. The German GI FG on Operating Systems also plans to hold its fall workshop in combination with NetSys'21 in Lübeck. NetSys'21 solicits extended abstracts presenting original and novel research and ideas as well as hot topic papers, i.e. presentations of papers that have already been accepted or published at other conferences or journals in the field during the last two years. The NetSys'21 TPC will select extended abstract papers for presentation and inclusion in the NetSys'21 proceedings to be published open access via the journal Electronic Communications of the EASST (ECEASST) (https://journal.ub.tu-berlin.de/eceasst). Hot topic presentations shall highlight recent and highly significant results in networked and distributed systems to be presented in a highly innovative, thought-provoking and stimulating format - containing, e.g., new research topics, directions, and methods. This includes recent papers which appeared (or are to appear) in top journals (such as TON or CCR) or top conferences (such as SIGCOMM, IMC, MobiCom, CoNEXT, INFOCOM, ICDCS) that are of high interest for the NetSys community. Extended abstracts and hot topic papers, can include, but are not limited to the following topics: * Network architectures and protocols * Transport- and application-layer protocols * Software-defined networking, network function virtualization, and further network softwarization * Mobile, ad-hoc, opportunistic, vehicular, and sensor networks * Novel concepts for tactile and low-latency communication * Pertinent middleware architectures, platforms, and programming support for networked systems * Internet of Things (IoT) * Cloud computing, mobile cloud computing, fog and edge computing * Network security and privacy * Information-centric networking, content distribution and retrieval, and their co-existence with classical networks * SoA, web services, and mobile services * Consistency, reliability, availability in networking and distributed systems * Advancements in social networks, social computing, data-intensive computing (big data) * Methods for design, implementation and analysis of networked systems * Cyber-physical networked systems * Green and energy-efficient networks / networked systems * Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning as well as their application in, and impacts on, networking * Distributed ledger systems and applications * Emerging and future networked applications and distributed systems NetSys and the COVID-19 pandemic -------------------------------------------------- Reallistically, it is currently (i.e. mid-April 2021) impossible to predict in which format NetSys 2021 can take place in September. We aim at a face-to-face event which seems still possible due to Lübeck’s location in the low incidence area of Schleswig-Holstein and the anticipated massive increase in vaccination until September. However, we are also preparing a hybrid backup solution, even though this would only substitute a rather limited subset of an event like NetSys - where personal meetings play a very important role. Fortunately, we are still in the situation of not having to make a final decision on the conference format at the moment. As soon as this becomes clearer, we will inform you via all conceivable channels! IMPORTANT DATES -------------------------- *Extended abstract submissions* * **Registration & submission:** Friday, May 28th, 2021 * **Notification of acceptance:** Wednesday, June 30th, 2021 * **Camera-ready due:** tba *Hot topic submissions* * **Registration & submission:** Friday, May 28th, 2021 * **Notification of acceptance:** Wednesday, June 30th, 2021 For other dates (workshop proposals, demo papers, early work and PhD Forum) see https://netsys2021.org. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES FOR EXTENDED ABSTRACTS --------------------------------------------------------------------------- All abstract submissions must be original, unpublished, and not considered elsewhere for publication. Extended abstracts are limited to 4 pages including references, figures and tables (11pt font, one-column format) in ECEASST-Style. LaTeX and Microsoft Word templates, as well as formatting instructions, are available online here: https://netsys2021.org/participation Contributions should be submitted electronically as PDF, via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=netsys2021 The abstracts will undergo a thorough process of peer reviews by at least three members of the technical program committee. Submission implies that at least one author will register and attend the conference to present the extended abstract via a talk or potentially via a poster. Accepted and presented extended abstracts will be published in the conference proceedings via the journal Electronic Communiations of EASST (https://journal.ub.tu-berlin.de/eceasst). SUBMISSION GUIDELINES FOR HOT TOPIC PAPERS --------------------------------------------------------------------- We expect submissions of papers already published or accepted at top-tier venues. Please submit the full paper or at least the front page (at least including title, authors, abstract, and publication venue) of the published paper as well as its complete reference. Accepted hot topic papers have to be presented at the conference. The presentations will be 15-20 minutes per talk (at the discretion of the NetSys organizers).

Fwd: [comsoc-etc-sub-iot] CFP IEEE GLOBECOM 2021 Technical Symposia on IoT and Sensor Networks: Deadline extended April 30th firm
by Lars Wolf 16 Apr '21

16 Apr '21

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [comsoc-etc-sub-iot] CFP IEEE GLOBECOM 2021 Technical Symposia on IoT and Sensor Networks: Deadline extended April 30th firm Datum: Fri, 16 Apr 2021 11:32:30 +0200 Von: Antonio Skarmeta <skarmeta(a)um.es> An: comsoc-etc-sub-iot(a)ipv6forum.com [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] The 2021 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM) will be held in Madrid, Spain, from 7 -11 December 2021. Themed “Connecting Cultures around the Globe,” this flagship conference of the IEEE Communications Society will feature a comprehensive high-quality technical program including 12 symposia, selected areas in communications track and a variety of tutorials and workshops. IEEE GLOBECOM 2021 will also include an attractive Industry program aimed at practitioners, with keynotes and panels from prominent research, industry and government leaders, business and industry panels, and vendor exhibits. https://globecom2021.ieee-globecom.org/ CALL FOR PAPERS TECHNICAL SYMPOSIA IoT and Sensor Networks SCOPE AND MOTIVATION With the promise of revolutionizing the way we live, work and manufacture, it is no surprise why the Internet of Things (IoT) has picked up the momentum in both industry and academia. Thanks to the increased connectivity and the continued miniaturization of computers and smart devices, IoT will generate huge volumes of data that will have to be analyzed to uncover hidden patterns, correlations and other insights. Moreover, in the industrial environments (Industry 4.0) as well in smart spaces (building, houses, etc.) and connected cars communications will require higher reliability, lower latency and scalability. Several technologies such as BLE, Zigbee, WirelessHART, IEEE Std 802.15.4 TSCH, 6TiSCH, LPWAN (LoRa, Sigfox, NB-IoT, LTE-M etc.) RAW have been proposed to tackle these requirements. The forthcoming 5G networks promise not only increased data rates but also ultra-low data latency communication for critical IoT applications that require extreme reliability. 5G will enable Machine Type Communication (MTC) one of the most promising technologies for IoT applications which is gaining a tremendous interest among mobile network operators, equipment vendors, MTC specialist companies, and research bodies. This anticipated high-traffic demands, low-latency and deterministic delivery requirements stemming from IoT and machine-to-machine (M2M) communications can be met only with radical changes in terms of architecture and communication solutions. Recently, Fog/Edge-to-thing continuum is proposed to mitigate the heavy burden on the network due to the centralized processing and storing of the massive IoT data. Fog/Edge-enabled IoT architectures ensure closer processing in proximity to the things, which results in small, deterministic latency that enables real-time applications and enforced security.

Topics include, but are not limited to: > > > * algorithms and techniques for machine learning and AI at the edge > * cellular infrastructure for edge computing > * distributed ledger technology (DLT) & blockchain at the edge > * edge computing as an enabler of 5G applications and services > * edge computing infrastructure and edge-enabled applications > * geo-distributed analytics and indexing on edge nodes > * hardware architectures for edge computing and devices > * IoT hubs > * innovative applications at the edge > * monitoring, management, and diagnosis in edge computing > * networking, e.g., from clients to the edge, and from the edge to the cloud > * programming models and toolkits > * resource management and reliability for edge computing > * security and privacy issues > * vehicular, enterprise, and manufacturing systems > > The review process will be double-blind. Papers will be judged on novelty, significance, clarity, relevance, and correctness. A best paper award will be presented to one or more outstanding papers from the conference. > > We also welcome short Position Papers on any of the above topics, which will be judged separately from papers in the research track of the conference. > > By submitting a paper, you agree that at least one of the authors will attend the conference to present it. > > Papers must be in PDF format and must be submitted here<http://acm-ieee-sec.org/2021/call%20for%20papers.php>. Do not email submissions. > > Two Deadlines and Reviewing Process with One-shot Revision > > SEC’21 offers authors the options of two deadlines and adds a one-shot revision process to enhance the timeliness and quality of the scientific results from the research community. Each paper will go through the same rigorous reviewing process as in previous SEC conferences. The review decisions will be one of the following: > > * Accept: Papers in this category will be accepted for publication in the proceedings and presentation at the conference, possibly after making minor changes with the oversight of a shepherd. > * One-Shot-Revision: A limited number of papers will be invited to submit a revision; such papers will receive a specific set of action points and can be resubmitted for the next deadline. After the resubmission, reviewers will evaluate the paper based on whether the authors have properly addressed the previous reviews. Unlike in the shepherding process, the requested action points may include running additional experiments that obtain specific results. During this revision period, the paper is still considered under review to SEC and therefore cannot be submitted to other conferences unless the authors first withdraw it from consideration. The revised paper will then be re-evaluated, and either accepted or rejected. > * Reject: Papers in this category are declined for inclusion in the conference. Rejected papers must wait for one year, from the date of the original submission, to resubmit to SEC. A paper will be judged to be a resubmit (as opposed to a new submission) if the paper is from the same or similar authors, and a reviewer could write a substantially similar summary of the paper compared with the original submission. As a rule of thumb, if there is more than 40% overlap between the original submission and the new paper, it will be considered a resubmission. > > In case of any similarity between a current submission and a submission that has been previously rejected at SEC less than 11 months ago, please email a detailed list of differences and if possible, a copy of a previous submission to the chairs. > > Important Dates > Deadline 1 (Passed) > Deadline 2 > Abstract and title registration June 17, 2021 > Paper submission June 24, 2021 > Notification of acceptance September 3, 2021 > Camera ready October 15, 2021 > > > Submission Instructions > Submitted papers must be no longer than 12 single-spaced 8.5" x 11" pages, including figures and tables, but excluding references, and using 10-point type on 11-point (single-spaced) leading, two-column format, Times Roman or a similar font, within a text block 6.5" wide x 9" deep. IEEE Standard template for Latex and Word meet these specifications and can be found at: https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html. Accepted papers will be allowed 2 additional pages in the proceedings. Papers not meeting these criteria will be rejected without review, and no deadline extensions will be granted for reformatting. Pages should be numbered, and figures and tables should be legible in black and white, without requiring magnification. Papers so short as to be considered "extended abstracts" will not receive full consideration. > > Reviewing will be double-blind. Authors must make a good faith effort to anonymize their submissions, and they should not identify themselves either explicitly or by implication; for example, cite prior work as though it belongs to a third party. Submissions violating the detailed formatting and anonymization rules will not be considered for review. If you are uncertain about how to anonymize your submission, please contact the program co-chairs well in advance of the submission deadline. > > Papers must be in PDF format and must be submitted via the Web submission form, which will be open in the weeks before the submission deadline. > > Position Papers > The program committee is also soliciting industry and academic position papers that describe current advances and challenges in edge computing practice and academic research. Such papers should follow the above submission instructions, with the exception that they may be no longer than 6 single-spaced 8.5" x 11" pages. Furthermore, the title of the paper should include the words: "Position Paper: XXX", where XXX is the actual title of the paper. > > ______________________________________________________________ > IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CfP: MobileServerless 2021 Workshop (co-located with ACM MobiSys 2021) Datum: Wed, 14 Apr 2021 10:18:24 +0200 Von: Andrés García Saavedra <andres.garcia.saavedra(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Andrés García Saavedra <andres.garcia.saavedra(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear Colleagues, apologies for cross-posting! Please consider contributing to and/or forward to the appropriate groups the following opportunity to submit and publish original scientific results to: ============================================================================================ MobileServerless 2021 the 1st Workshop on Serverless Mobile Networking for 6G Communications co-located with ACM MobiSys 2021 ============================================================================================ Spurred by a growing need for programmability and flexibility, serverless computing is rapidly gaining the attention of mobile network stakeholders. The introduction of serverless architectures, also known as Function as a Service (FaaS), enables programmers to decompose network operations into atomic building blocks. This new paradigm represents the natural evolution of current cloud-native architectures, and a first glimpse into an actual fluid resource control that breaks current quantization and reaches ultimate flexibility. The advantages are evident and include: no service management, boosted resource multiplexing, liquid scalability, and high customization. The challenges to realizing a complete serverless approach in mobile networks are however important: software needs to be re-developed for this purpose, the scalability of routing traffic interconnecting functions must be explored, and resource orchestration becomes daunting. MobileServerless will facilitate discussions and novel contributions on the emerging topic of serverless networking for future mobile communications. MobileServerless welcomes both theoretical and more applied contributions, tools and methodologies, works-in-progress, demos and experience papers. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Application of cloud-native and serverless concept to network function design - Performance evaluation of cloud-native network deployment - Simulation and theoretical evaluation of highly modular network functions - New software architectures for network function design - Management and orchestration solutions for cloud-native network functions - Technical enablers for scalable packet forwarding in a cloud-native environment - Security and privacy in serverless environments. We will have 2 renowned keynote speakers: - Dr. Volker Hilt, who is a Bell Labs Fellow and senior director leading the Autonomous Software Systems Research program at Nokia Bell Labs. Volker's work is focused on distributed software systems where he has made contributions in cloud computing, software operations, distributed multimedia systems, content distribution networks, peer-to-peer applications and the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). He has designed the overload control mechanism for SIP, which has become a key part of today's telecommunication systems. Volker received a Ph.D. in Computer Science in 2001 from the University of Mannheim in Germany. He joined Bell Labs in Holmdel, NJ, USA in 2002 and moved to Stuttgart, Germany in 2012. Volker is an IEEE senior member and has published over 100 papers, Internet drafts and RFCs and holds over 30 patents. - Dr. Paul Castro, who is a Research Staff Member and Manager at the IBM Watson Research Center. He currently works on Hybrid Cloud Programming Models and Systems with interests in Serverless computing models, cloud platforms, and developer tooling for cloud-native development. He has been active in research on mobile and pervasive computing, cloud infrastructure, wireless location systems, location databases, stream processing, and enterprise web applications and has been awarded several patents in these areas. He has worked on cloud services for supporting mobile applications running on various smartphone platforms. Work from his research in the area of multi-device application support was recently released as part of the IBM Bluemix Mobile Backend as a Service. He has earned two IBM Technical Achievement Awards for the IBM SmartCloud Web Meetings for mobile clients and the Intelligent Notification System. He worked extensively on enterprise solutions work for the Apple+IBM partnership. He has also worked on Apache OpenWhisk which powers IBM Cloud Functions.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] NetSys 2021 - Second Call for Ext. Abstracts and Hot Topic Papers Datum: Mon, 12 Apr 2021 13:20:08 -0700 Von: Mathias Fischer <mathias.fischer(a)IEEE.ORG> Antwort an: mathias.fischer(a)IEEE.ORG An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG International Conference on Networked Systems 2021 13.-16. September 2021 - Lübeck, Germany https://netsys2021.org Second Call for Extended Abstracts and Hot Topic Papers ------------------------------------------------------- The conference on Networked Systems (NetSys 2021) is a traditional biennial event that provides an international forum for engineers and scientists in academia, industry, and government to present and discuss recent innovations in the realm of networked systems. NetSys'21 is again a joint event organized by GI KuVS (GI, Communication and Distributed Systems) and VDE ITG (VDE, Information Technical Society) and additionally supported by IFIP TC6. The NetSys21 technical program focusses on original contributions in the area of networking and distributed systems and also features invited presentations on hot topics in networking and distributed systems, an industry session, separate workshops, tutorials, posters, demos, an early work track, and a PhD forum. Also included is the annual 1-day ITG expert symposium “Future of Networking” (Zukunft der Netze, ZdN) with invited technical presentations on advanced topics in networking. The German GI FG on Operating Systems also plans to hold its fall workshop in combination with NetSys'21 in Lübeck. NetSys'21 solicits extended abstracts presenting original and novel research and ideas as well as hot topic papers, i.e. presentations of papers that have already been accepted or published at other conferences or journals in the field during the last two years. The NetSys'21 TPC will select extended abstract papers for presentation and inclusion in the NetSys'21 proceedings to be published open access via the journal Electronic Communications of the EASST (ECEASST) ( https://journal.ub.tu-berlin.de/eceasst). Hot topic presentations shall highlight recent and highly significant results in networked and distributed systems to be presented in a highly innovative, thought-provoking and stimulating format - containing, e.g., new research topics, directions, and methods. This includes recent papers which appeared (or are to appear) in top journals (such as TON or CCR) or top conferences (such as SIGCOMM, IMC, MobiCom, CoNEXT, INFOCOM, ICDCS) that are of high interest for the NetSys community. Extended abstracts and hot topic papers, can include, but are not limited to the following topics: * Network architectures and protocols * Transport- and application-layer protocols * Software-defined networking, network function virtualization, and further network softwarization * Mobile, ad-hoc, opportunistic, vehicular, and sensor networks * Novel concepts for tactile and low-latency communication * Pertinent middleware architectures, platforms, and programming support for networked systems * Internet of Things (IoT) * Cloud computing, mobile cloud computing, fog and edge computing * Network security and privacy * Information-centric networking, content distribution and retrieval, and their co-existence with classical networks * SoA, web services, and mobile services * Consistency, reliability, availability in networking and distributed systems * Advancements in social networks, social computing, data-intensive computing (big data) * Methods for design, implementation and analysis of networked systems * Cyber-physical networked systems * Green and energy-efficient networks / networked systems * Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning as well as their application in, and impacts on, networking * Distributed ledger systems and applications * Emerging and future networked applications and distributed systems NetSys and the COVID-19 pandemic -------------------------------- Reallistically, it is currently (i.e. mid-April 2021) impossible to predict in which format NetSys 2021 can take place in September. We aim at a face-to-face event which seems still possible due to Lübeck’s location in the low incidence area of Schleswig-Holstein and the anticipated massive increase in vaccination until September. However, we are also preparing a hybrid backup solution, even though this would only substitute a rather limited subset of an event like NetSys - where personal meetings play a very important role. Fortunately, we are still in the situation of not having to make a final decision on the conference format at the moment. As soon as this becomes clearer, we will inform you via all conceivable channels! IMPORTANT DATES --------------- *Extended abstract submissions* * **Registration & submission:** Friday, May 28th, 2021 * **Notification of acceptance:** Wednesday, June 30th, 2021 * **Camera-ready due:** tba *Hot topic submissions* * **Registration & submission:** Friday, May 28th, 2021 * **Notification of acceptance:** Wednesday, June 30th, 2021 For other dates (workshop proposals, demo papers, early work and PhD Forum) see https://netsys2021.org. SUBMISSION GUIDELINES FOR EXTENDED ABSTRACTS -------------------------------------------- All abstract submissions must be original, unpublished, and not considered elsewhere for publication. Extended abstracts are limited to 4 pages including references, figures and tables (11pt font, one-column format) in ECEASST-Style. LaTeX and Microsoft Word templates, as well as formatting instructions, are available online here: https://netsys2021.org/participation Contributions should be submitted electronically as PDF, via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=netsys2021 The abstracts will undergo a thorough process of peer reviews by at least three members of the technical program committee. Submission implies that at least one author will register and attend the conference to present the extended abstract via a talk or potentially via a poster. Accepted and presented extended abstracts will be published in the conference proceedings via the journal Electronic Communiations of EASST ( https://journal.ub.tu-berlin.de/eceasst). SUBMISSION GUIDELINES FOR HOT TOPIC PAPERS ------------------------------------------ We expect submissions of papers already published or accepted at top-tier venues. Please submit the full paper or at least the front page (at least including title, authors, abstract, and publication venue) of the published paper as well as its complete reference.

However, the general-purpose and best-effort model of the Internet continues to be challenged with an ever-growing demand for more complex applications with stricter application-specific requirements. How can we deliver 4k videos to everybody? How can we ensure ultra-low latency for applications such as self-driving cars and cloud gaming? How do applications adapt when the underlying infrastructure cannot provide the services such as reliability or security? The Second ACM SIGCOMM Workshop on Network-Application Integration/CoDesign (NAI) seeks to build on the success of the first workshop ( https://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2020/workshop-nai.html) and continue to foster discussions on this topic. We invite researchers from academia and industry as well as engineers to explore novel ideas and future directions of NAI. Topics of Interest include, but are not limited to: - Network abstraction models (e.g., resource, state) - Exposure of network information and control interfaces - Data collection (e.g., measurement) for network abstraction - Coordination of information and decisions across multiple domains (regions and technology layers) - Data processing techniques to generate network abstraction (e.g., low level, filtering) - Data distribution techniques (i.e., how, when and where to make data available for processing/analysis) for real-time network information exposure - Validation of network abstractions (e.g., conforming to model) - Privacy analysis of exposing network and application information - Economical/game-theoretical analysis of network information/service exposure - Stability design and analysis of application-network control loop - Optimality design and analysis of application-network control loop - Condition management and conflict resolution in complex closed-loop systems - Control with multiple dimensional constraints (privacy, policy, beyond networking) - Co-design for specialized apps (e.g., video, ML, IoT) - Integrating learning and big data analytics (e.g., wide area, application and user) - Experience and deployment of application-network co-design and integration - Application adaptation to network information/service models Submission Instructions： Submissions must be original, unpublished work, and not under consideration at another conference or journal. Submitted papers must be at most six (6) pages long, including all figures, tables, references, and appendices in two-column 10pt ACM format. We also encourage industrial demos for which a two-page extended abstract must be submitted in the same format as the workshop papers. Papers and extended abstracts must include author names and affiliations for single-blind peer reviewing by the PC. Authors of accepted submissions are expected to present and discuss their work at the workshop. Please submit your paper via https://nai21.hotcrp.com. Please direct any questions to the workshop chairs at sigcomm21nai(a)gmail.com .
