Cutting-edge papers spanning both theory and experimentation are solicited in all areas of networking. Papers are solicited in all areas of networking, but in keeping with the heritage of this event, this symposium’s central theme is “Ultra-broadband wireless networks: 5G and beyond”. Ultra-broadband wireless networks, that can utilize emerging communication technologies such as mmWave and THz communications, offer a tremendous opportunity for unprecedented data rates and low latency at the physical layer over short distances and network layer goodputs that are orders of magnitude greater than current wireless networks. At the same time, they raise numerous challenges – such as positioning, localization, intermittency – that impact networking, communication, and hardware design, often requiring cross-layer approaches to solve them. The intimate single-track format of the symposium encourages stimulating exchanges between researchers. The event is expected to be a forum for discussion of new and interdisciplinary ideas on network access protocols, network management and control, services and applications, performance related to IoT for smart cities. Speculative and potentially transformative ideas are particularly encouraged, as are studies reporting measurements from real-life networks and testbeds. Papers are solicited on any topic in networking, including, but not limited to, the following: • Cross-layer design for mmWave and THz communication • Networking challenges with directional and LoS technologies • Networking protocols and architectures for the IoTs • Machine-to-machine communications • Cloud, edge and fog computing integration • Co-existence and heterogeneity support at the edge (HetNets) • Energy efficiency for local and metropolitan area networking • Information security for local and metropolitan area networking • Intelligent routing and forwarding • Named data networking • Network and transport mechanisms for latency reduction • Network virtualization in local and metropolitan area • Packet scheduling • Performance for local and metropolitan area networking • Resilience and reliability for local and metropolitan area networking • Software-defined networking in local and metropolitan area IEEE LANMAN 2020 solicits paper submissions of Regular Papers (up to 6 pages) and Short Papers (up to 2 pages). Short papers will be presented in a poster session. Also, some of the regular paper submissions may be accepted as short papers by the TPC.

The emerging IoT paradigm with the Big Data paradigm, provides the foundations to extract common knowledge from data made available by humans, institutions, or smart objects for supporting decision making. The paradigms of Crowdsourcing and Mobile Crowdsensing (MCS) have long been used to seek contributions from a crowd of participants who commit to perform certain agreed tasks. With the omnipresence of IoT, underpinned by mobile smart devices, IoT-Crowdsensing (IoT-CS) is gaining increased interest where smart mobile devices and IoT devices undertake the task of collecting data about phenomena of interest. Although fascinating and potentially disruptive, this paradigm inherently carry a set of technical challenges at various levels, which should be studied by different research communities: battery efficiency, efficient participant recruiting, data aggregation and processing, data quality, incentivization techniques, mobility, application semantics and privacy to name some of the hot facets of IoT-CS. In line with such objectives, this workshop aims to provide a platform for researchers and practitioners to discuss and share the current and emerging state-of-the-art, challenges and solutions in IoT-CS specifically targeting Smart Cities. We solicit original contributions in topics of interest including, but not limited to, the following: - Energy efficiency in MCS services and applications - Protocols enhancement for crowdsensed services - Social Internet of things - Big data semantics - Data science for MCS services - Environmental Monitoring - Opportunistic MCS services - Rewarding mechanism for MCS services - Fog computing for Collaborative IoT - Heterogeneous data aggregation - Machine learning techniques for data aggregation - Machine learning techniques for data classification - MCS testbeds and platforms - NLP techniques for crowdsensed services - Privacy for crowdsensed data - User behavior classification from public data - User activity recognition - User profiling Inportant dates: - March 15th - Paper Submission Deadline - April 20th - Notification of Acceptance - May 1st - Camera Ready Submission Deadline Federico Montori Research Fellow Department of Computer Science and Engineering University of Bologna, Italy ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Application developers have traditionally been bound to use either stream-oriented connection-based reliable communication using TCP or datagram-oriented connection-less unreliable communication using UDP, and middleboxes have been mostly configured to allow traffic from these two protocols only, and hence disincentivizing the application developers to use any novel transport protocols and services (e.g., SCTP, DCCP, etc). In recent years, this long-standing stalemate has been broken thanks to the rapid progress made on several fronts amongst them: (1) IETF’s Transport Services working group (TAPS) and several industry stakeholders’ efforts to introduce platform- and protocol-independent transport layer APIs (e.g., Apple’s Network.framework, the IETF TAPS API, and the NEAT API); (2) new transport protocols being deployed on the wire that run over UDP as a substrate (e.g., Google’s QUIC) to get around middleboxes; (3) new congestion control mechanisms other than NewReno and Linux’ CUBIC (e.g., Google’s BBR) and finally (4) HTTP3 that is an effort to port HTTP2 over QUIC. This has coincided with the introduction of new network technologies such as emerging 5G mobile networks currently being standardized by the 3GPP, and the network softwarization movement using virtualization and containerization techniques (e.g., SDN, NFV). With the emergence of networks that offer much faster PHY bitrates and aggregate capacity (e.g., 5G, WiFi6), and with emerging applications that require much more stringent latency requirements (e.g., AR/VR/XR or automotive V2X), the need for an efficient transport layer stack – that is likely to run in the userland instead of the OS kernel – will become much more significantly highlighted. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Technical issues and challenges that arise in the transport layer with the emergence of high-speed and high-capacity networks (e.g., 5G) * Transport protocols and their performance in emergent latency-sensitive and bandwidth-consuming application use-cases (e.g., V2X communication and high-fidelity AR/VR/XR) * Design, deployment, and evaluation of state-of-the-art transport protocols (e.g., QUIC) and their congestion control mechanisms (e.g., BBR) * The performance of transport protocols in virtual environments; especially novel userland transport protocols such as QUIC * Design and evaluation of new transport layer APIs for future Internet and strategies for their deployment * Design, evaluation, deployment, and measurement studies of transport-layer security mechanisms (e.g., TLS 1.3) Paper format and submission instructions Submitted papers should be unpublished work and they should not be under review by any other conference or journal. They must be no more than 6 pages (IEEE two-column format, 10pt) in total including references and figures. Papers will be reviewed single-blind. Accepted papers will appear in the symposium proceedings published by IFIP and submitted to IEEE Xplore Digital Library. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and present the work in the workshop.

Authors of extended versions of selected papers will be invited for inclusion in the Special Issue “IoT Applications and Industry 4.0” hosted by the journal “Internet of Things; Engineering Cyber Physical Human Systems” (Elsevier). ***Aim and Scope*** It is evident that IoT is entering multiple fields of everyday life. The proliferation of IoT devices as well as the numerous use cases reveal the very promising potentials of IoT in revolutionizing several aspects of common activities as well as business processes. The vision of interconnecting billions of devices in a holistic network, where machines communicate along with traditional human communications is now being realized, towards the formation of the Internet of Everything (as called by Cisco). The workshop focuses on Industrial Internet of Things systems and applications, which represent the highest value segment of the IoT market.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: CFP: OSPERT 2020 Datum: Tue, 18 Feb 2020 13:03:22 +0100 (CET) Von: Gesellschaft fuer Informatik e.V. <mitgliederservice(a)gi.de> Antwort an: mitgliederservice(a)gi.de Organisation: Gesellschaft fuer Informatik e.V. An: wolf(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de Logo der Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V. MITGLIEDERINFO FG Betriebssysteme -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS - OSPERT 2020 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 16th Annual Workshop on Operating Systems Platforms for Embedded Real-Time Applications (OSPERT 2020) July 7, 2020 Modena, Italy in conjunction with ECRTS'20 https://sra.uni-hannover.de/ospert20/ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OSPERT is a forum for researchers and engineers working on (and with) Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOSs) to present recent advances in RTOS technology, to promote new and existing initiatives and projects, and to identify and discuss the challenges that lie ahead. The workshop, now in its eleventh year, provides the RTOS community with an opportunity to meet, to exchange ideas, to network, and to discuss future directions. OSPERT’18 strives for an inclusive and diverse program and solicits a range of varied contributions. To this end, the following types of submissions are sought: 1. proposals for stand-alone presentations (including talks on open problems, demos & tutorials, calls to action, etc.); 2. proposals for reports on empirical experiments (including replication studies, preliminary experiments preceding a full conference submission, and negative experience reports discussing failed approaches); and 3. technical papers (short papers and full workshop papers). See https://sra.uni-hannover.de/ospert20/formats.html for a detailed description of the different contribution formats. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES Submission deadline: April 16, 2020 (23:59 GMT-12) Notification of Acceptance: May 13, 2020 Final submissions: May 29, 2020 Workshops: July 7, 2020 ECRTS'19: July 07-10, 2020 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCOPE AND TOPICS OF INTEREST OSPERT is open to all topics related to providing a reliable and efficient operating environment for real-time and embedded applications. Developers of embedded RTOSs are faced with many challenges arising from two opposite needs: on the one hand there is a need for extreme resource usage optimization (processor cycles, energy, network bandwidth, etc.), and on the other hand there are also increasing demands in terms of scalability, flexibility, isolation, adaptivity, reconfigurability, predictability, serviceability, and certifiability, to name a few. Further, while special-purpose RTOSs continue to be used for many embedded applications, real-time services are also increasingly introduced and used in general-purpose operating systems, and market pressures continue to blur the lines between the two formerly distinct classes of operating systems. Notable examples are the various flavors of real-time Linux that support time-sensitive applications, the emergence of commercial and open-source real-time hypervisors, as well as the growth in features and scope of embedded OS and middleware specifications such as AUTOSAR. OSPERT is dedicated to the advances in RTOS technology required to address these trends. As such, areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following topics: - Case studies and experience reports - Consolidation of real-time and best-effort work on embedded platforms - Certification and verification of RTOSs and middleware - Coordinated management of multiple resources - Dynamic reconfiguration and upgrading - Empirical comparisons and evaluations of RTOSs - Flexible processor, memory, and I/O scheduling - Interaction with reconfigurable hardware - Operating system standards (e.g., AUTOSAR, ARINC, POSIX, etc.) - Power and energy management - Quality of Service guarantees - Real-time Linux variants - Real-time virtualization and hypervisors - RTOSs for manycore platforms - Scalability, from very small scale embedded systems to full-fledged RTOSs - Security and fault tolerance for embedded real-time systems - Support for multiprocessor architectures - Support for component-based development -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUBMISSION FORMATS - Short WiP papers: up to three A4 pages, standard IEEE formatting. - Full workshop papers: up to six A4 pages, standard IEEE formatting. Visit https://sra.uni-hannover.de/ospert20/ for further details. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CO-LOCATED WITH ECRTS'20 OSPERT 2019 is a satellite workshop of the 32th Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2020), the premier European venue for presenting research into the broad area of real-time and embedded systems.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP Special Issue "Cooperative Perception for Intelligent Vehicles" - Sensors (Impact Factor: 3.031) Datum: Tue, 18 Feb 2020 10:40:32 +0100 Von: Sepulcre Ribes, Miguel <msepulcre(a)UMH.ES> Antwort an: Sepulcre Ribes, Miguel <msepulcre(a)UMH.ES> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS - Special Issue "*Cooperative Perception for Intelligent Vehicles*" - Sensors (Impact Factor: 3.031) Deadline for manuscript submissions: 15 May 2020. https://www.mdpi.com/journal/sensors/special_issues/Intelli_Vechicles Automated vehicles are expected to have a significant impact in the transport sector in the next decades, improving road safety and traffic efficiency, as well as reducing energy consumption and improving user comfort. Automated vehicles make use of a set of onboard sensors installed in the vehicle (e.g. camera, radar and lidar) that are responsible for perceiving the surrounding environment, and a set of actuators that control its longitudinal and lateral movements. One of the development objectives is to automatically perform driving tasks with less or even without driver intervention. Several studies have already shown that the sensors used in the perception process have limitations that might degrade the performance of automated vehicles. For example, in adverse weather conditions (such as rain, snow and fog), the cameras will not be able to adequately capture the environment, and in situations where the sensor’s field of vision is blocked (by other vehicles or buildings) none of the current sensors can detect beyond the position of the obstacle. To overcome these limitations and improve the perception capabilities of the vehicles, cooperative perception enables the wireless exchange of sensor information between vehicles and between vehicles and infrastructure nodes. Cooperative perception, also known as cooperative sensing or collective perception, enables vehicles and infrastructure nodes to detect objects (e.g. non-connected vehicles, pedestrians, obstacles) beyond their local sensing capabilities. Cooperative perception can be key for extended and timely detection of the surrounding environment and can also enable cooperative applications by compensating low penetration rates of connected road users, thus facilitating the future deployment of automated vehicles. The purpose of this Special Issue is to present and discuss major research challenges, latest developments, and recent advances on cooperative perception. This Special Issue solicits the submission of high-quality papers from academia and industry that aim to solve open technical problems or challenges in the context of cooperative perception. Original and innovative contributions on all aspects, both theoretical and experimental, are all welcome. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following: - Application development and validation based on cooperative perception - V2X communication algorithms and protocols for cooperative perception - Communication technologies for cooperative perception - Radio resource allocation for cooperative perception - Congestion control for cooperative perception - Infrastructure-assisted solutions for cooperative perception - Security analysis and algorithms for cooperative perception - Artificial intelligence and machine learning-based cooperative perception - Sensor design and configuration for cooperative perception - Sensor architectures and technologies for cooperative perception - The impact of sensor data and sensor data fusion quality on the effectiveness of cooperative perception - Sensor data fusion problems, algorithms and architectures in the context of cooperative perception - Simulation platforms and experimental testbeds for cooperative perception Keywords: - Cooperative perception (also known as cooperative sensing or collective perception) - Connected automated vehicles - V2X communications - Simulation platforms - Experimental testbeds *Special Issue Editors* - Dr. Miguel Sepulcre - Dr. Michele Rondinone - Dr. Andreas Leich - Dr. Meng Lu *Dr. Miguel Sepulcre* Associate Professor - Wireless Networks, http://www.uwicore.umh.es Universidad Miguel Hernandez de Elche (UMH), Spain Associate Editor for IEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine and IEEE Communications Letters Google Scholar profile: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=FPLLIHsAAAAJ&hl=en ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Important Dates Paper Submission: 15th March Acceptance Notification: TBD Camera Ready: 15th April Early Registration: TBD In the last few years, Unmanned Autonomous Vehicles (UAVs), have developed rapidly and have been used for emergent applications that range from inspection, surveillance, agriculture, cargo delivery, and communications. The symbiosis between UAVs and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) started quite naturally: UAVs perform remote sensing, act as data muler that carry the data collected by the WSN. Evolving WSN in Internet of Things (IoT) devices, single or multiple Drones/UAVs can cooperatively provide services that require efficient protocols where multiple objectives and constraints should be accounted. For this workshop, we search for papers that combine design of algorithms, optimization, and test-bed to develop the theoretical foundations for the UAV systems operating in symbiosis with WSN in IoT applications. The numerous emergent applications nurtured by IoT may require an interdisciplinary approach, involving techniques from algorithm foundations and different areas, such as robotics, artificial intelligence, mathematical modelling, machine learning. Possible topics are: Autonomous WSN via Drones Topology monitoring of WSN with Drones Build Remote Sensing Networks via Drones Communication architectures and protocols of Drones over IoT Modelling and analysis of Drone systems over IoT Precision Agricolture Monitoring crops Controling bugs in Agricolture Drones for environment monitoring Autopilot and UAS autonomy UAV mission planning, path planning, and scheduling Parcel delivery using Drones 4G-5G networks and UAVs Constraints and multiobjective optimization problems in UAVs Ground Localization with Drones Cooperative control of multiple UAVs UAV secure communication techniques Optimal UAV deployment strategies Experimental results, simulators and test beds for drone networks Single UAV Applications Multi-UAV Applications Human Rights and Drones Submission deadlines Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on distributed sensor systems related to WiDroIt topics of interest.

The Internet of Things-enabled WSNs are usually characterized by the ability of remotely and precisely locating specific sensing elements, interrogating them and controlling the way it suits the application. This enables innovative deployment models of IoT applications, however, energy efficiency still a big issue in this environment. For WSNs, energy and powering have long been the main challenges that hampers autonomous and perpetual operation of such systems. As such power efficiency algorithms, systems, intelligence and platforms have been and are constantly being investigated and solution pursued and proposed constantly. Of particular interest, in this domain, are energy-harvesting wireless sensor networks (EH-WSNs), whether fully autonomous or backed by batteries. The EHWSNs which are fully powered by environmentally harvested energy constitute the most appealing solutions that strive to meet the target of enabling large scale deployment of WSNs in “set and forget” scenarios. With these desirable features, which are becoming reality from the industrial side, are emerging challenges to the networking community in proposing networking software, platforms and protocols which are fully context-aware and more importantly, power-aware to ensure synchronized and timely scheduling of the data transmission rounds/cycles in an opportunistic manner. This workshop is inviting contributions that fall into this context, whether these are networking platforms, systems or protocols that are energy-efficient, context-aware and supportive of EH-WSNs or AI/ML assisted methods for enhancing power efficiency in IoT Systems. The scope of this workshop includes (but not limited to) the following topics: * Deep reinforcement learning-driven energy-efficient networks and services in IoT. * Deep reinforcement learning-driven energy-efficient networks for smart cities. * Energy harvesting and power management in wireless networks using deep reinforcement learning. * Energy harvesting MAC protocols * Remotely powered wireless systems solutions * Power efficiency for wireless, mobile and networks * Green data communication network architecture * Power-aware communication protocols and algorithms * Context-aware communication protocols and algorithms * Adaptive, dynamic duty cycle management in energy-harvested WSNs * Cross-layer design techniques for energy-harvested WSNs * Green MAC protocols and channel assignment * Cross layer optimization for maximum energy efficiency * Power-aware, context-aware routing protocols * Measurements and models for energy consumption of wireless networks * Security aspects applicable to WSNs, EH-WSNs and IoTs. Important Dates: Submission: Final Extension: February 21th, 2020 Acceptance notification: March 30, 2020 Camera-ready paper submissions: April 30, 2020 Papers Submission: Prospective authors are invited to submit original technical papers—up to 6 pages of length, using the EDAS link http://edas.info for possible publication in the IWCMC 2019 Conference Proceedings, which will be submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library.
