-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems Special Issue on Intent-based Networking for 5G-Envisioned Internet of Connected Vehicles Datum: Fri, 27 Dec 2019 04:40:58 -0500 Von: Sahil Garg <garg.sahil1990(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Sahil Garg <garg.sahil1990(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG [Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP] Call for Papers! IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems Special Issue on Intent-based Networking for 5G-Envisioned Internet of Connected Vehicles Link: https://static.wixstatic.com/ugd/eaf218_68edd209fdcc49dfa9a7ded565624232.pdf Submission Deadline: March 30, 2020 Overview: With the recent advances in wireless communications, the automotive industry is leading to evolution. To succeed in this emerging era of technology, the Internet of Connected Vehicles (IoCV) has emerged as one of the potential applications of the Internet of Things (IoT). It refers to the dynamic mobile communication systems that communicate between vehicles and public networks to enhance the connectivity between cars via technology. By offering a wide variety of infotainment services, fleet operations, and in-vehicle applications, IoCV has gained the tremendous capacity to provide a safer and sustainable transportation system to the society. According to Gartner Inc., “the connected car is already a reality, and in-vehicle wireless connectivity is expanding rapidly”. As a result, the evolution of cars into the IoT will keep on accelerating the global market which is expected to grow by 270 percent by 2022. Further, the increasing deployment of sensors and ever-evolving cognitive technology open up new opportunities for IoCV. Due to these significant developments, connected vehicles are receiving widespread attention from the major automotive giants such as Tesla, BMW, Waymo (Google), Uber, Volvo, etc. Despite all the opportunities offered by the IoCV, their highly dynamic topology and the increasing number of vehicles pose challenges regarding delivering low-latency vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications. The fifth generation (5G) wireless networks emerge as a critical provider to handle the stringent connectivity requirements of IoCV. Moreover, with the development of massive multiple-input- multiple-output (MIMO), non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), terahertz (THz) frequencies, millimetre-wave (mmWave), and heterogeneous networks (HetNets), 5G intends to guarantee new capabilities related to connectivity, data rates, transmission delay, throughput and moreover quality of experience (QoE). Thus, integrating 5G cellular systems into IoCV is a promising technology to achieve the goals mentioned above. However, as we are moving towards the 5G communication era, the data generated by connected vehicles is expected to grow exponentially; which in turn brings significant challenges to 5G. Therefore, to promote productivity, improve efficiency, and ensure the efficient handling of continuous growing data, it requires the support of high computing paradigm that can process the data with minimum delays. To accomplish these objectives, a programmable and scalable network paradigm is the need of the hour that can provide a variety of services to 5G-envisioned IoCV in diversified scenarios. In this direction, software-defined networking (SDN) and network function virtualization (NFV) have gained much attention from the research fraternity. They rely more on network programmability to realize efficient network services. However, this traditional device-to-device management paradigm falls short while dealing with 5G mobile networks as it is characterized by a humongous cycle of connected devices. To overcome these problems, intent-based networking (IBN) has evolved as one of the paradigm shifts which combines automation with intelligence. Typically, IBN is composed of four essential elements namely, translation and validation, automated implementation, awareness of network state, and assurance and dynamic optimization/remediation; which takes the networking strategy to a higher level. Due to these fundamental elements, IBN holds excellent potential for reliable network support with quick turnaround and scalable services. Additionally, it also facilitates simplified network operations with seamless integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning. This, in turn, provides more opportunities to build more robust and efficient network designs for 5G-envisioned IoCV.

Dezember 2019 15:21:33 MEZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE INFOCOM 2020 Workshop on Pervasive Systems in the IoT era (PERSIST- IoT) Apologies if you received multiple copies of this CFP. ************************************************************************************** * Workshop on Pervasive Systems in the IoT era (PERSIST- IoT) * in conjunction with IEEE INFOCOM 2020 April 27, 2020, Beijing, China https://infocom2020.ieee-infocom.org/workshop-pervasive-systems-iot-era <https://infocom2020.ieee-infocom.org/workshop-pervasive-systems-iot-era> ************************************************************************************** * Call for Papers * By leveraging the global interconnection of billions of tiny smart objects, the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm is fostering the idea of pervasive Smart Environments (SEs) and Smart Urban Ecosystems, where all the data gathered by the ``Things'' can be elaborated and used to improve the livability, the safety and the security of the environment, and to make inhabitants lives easier. However, despite the research advancements in recent years, many open issues still prevent the full realization of such vision. To meet the requirements of SEs, telecommunication systems should support significantly high data rates, traffic capacity, connection density, energy efficiency, as well as small latency. Being massively distributed into the environment, smart objects may generate, collect, exchange and process big data, provide distributed services, offer computational resources, and cooperate to perform some tasks locally, as well as to delegate their execution to more powerful nodes in the cloud or at the network edge. In addition to the traditional pull-based data delivery, push-based and publish/subscribe traffic patterns must be supported. To accommodate newly emerging more demanding services the network infrastructure should be agile, cost effective and possibly softwarized. The satisfaction of security and privacy requirements will play a fundamental role in the SEs; indeed, without effective mechanisms, attacks and malfunctions in the IoT will outweigh any of their benefits. The PERSIST-IoT workshop aims to solicit a collection of innovative papers reporting the most recent advancements in the fields of smart architecture, protocols and practical implementations enabling IoT for smart environments. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to the following: · Models of network component interactions on smart environments; · Distributed sensing and control in smart environments; · Mobile-aware cloud computing models, infrastructures, and approaches for smart environments; · Mobile edge computing for smart environments; · Crowdsourcing in smart environments; · IoT architecture and middleware; · Novel communication protocols for M2M/MTC communication; · Novel networking paradigms (e.g., ICN, SDN) for IoT; · Energy efficient solutions for IoT; · Device-2-device communications (D2D); · Reliability, security, privacy and trust in smart environment ecosystems; · Business models to promote user collaboration and resource sharing in smart environments; · Testbeds demonstrating the feasibility of smart environments; · Applications, business, standards, and social issues. ******************************************************************************* * Important dates * Abstract Registration: January 7, 2020 Submission Deadline: January 15, 2020 Notification of Acceptance: February 15, 2020 Camera Ready: March 6, 2020 ******************************************************************************* * Submission instructions * Submissions will be accepted through EDAS (https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=26855 <https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=26855>).

EDAS link for submissions: https://edas.info/N26864 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ GENERAL DESCRIPTION ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wireless Sensor, Robot and UAV networks are characterized by the coordination and mobility of nodes that are able to accomplish distributed sensing and actuation tasks. Leveraged by the control and mobility of actors, the networking process and applications embrace a whole new set of possibilities. Specialized networked systems, made of intelligent devices (such as robots and UAVs), may deploy, repair and relocate sensors to improve coverage, build routes and fix network partition to ensure data communication, change network topology to shape routing patterns and balance energy consumption, and to respond to reported events in a timely and effective manner. Also, they might be able to integrate within existing and upcoming mobile infrastructures (e.g. the 5G), by enabling the sensing operations on complex and dynamic scenarios, and to process the data on the edge or to offload them toward existing cloud services. The benefits are limited only by imagination. As an emerging field, ground and aerial robotic systems are in need of new networking techniques as well as of novel cloud/edge architectures for data gathering and processing that might unlock the potentials of such systems. To this purpose, WiSARN aims at bringing together state-of-the-art contributions on the design, specification and implementation of architectures, algorithms and protocols for current and future applications of sensor robotic and aerial networks. IEEE WiSARN 2020 will serve as incubator for scientific communities that share a particular research agenda in the area of the workshopÕs topic. Moreover, it will provide its participants with opportunities to understand the major technical and application challenges of UAV/Robot networking as well as exchange and discuss scientific and engineering ideas related to their architecture, protocol, algorithm, and application design. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ TOPICS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Original, unpublished contributions are solicited in design, implementation and evaluation of wireless sensor, robot and UAV networks. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: - UAV-aided wireless sensor networks - Communication protocols and wireless technologies for robotic systems - UAV and robot networks in 5G systems - Emergent behavior in robotic systems - Cloud/fog/edge computing platforms in robotic systems - Data management, gathering and aggregation issues in robotic systems - Modeling and control of fleet of UAVs - Autonomic and self-organizing coordination and communication in Robot and UAV networks - Sensor-robot and robot-robot coordination - Energy-efficient and real-time communication protocols in Robot and UAV networks - Distributed control and management for Robot and UAV network deployments - Map exploration and pattern formation of mobile robots - Robot task assignment - Biologically inspired communication systems for Robot and UAV networks - Software-Defined Aerial Networks - Endurance Management - Context-awareness and decision making for UAV systems - Path planning, and target tracking in UAV networks - Quality of service, security and robustness issues - Robot advanced motion control - Optimal control of networked robots - Novel applications of Robot and UAV networks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It is required that the manuscript follows the standard IEEE camera-ready format (double column, 10-pt font) and be submitted as PDF file (formatted for 8.5-11 inch paper) as well as the requirement set by the EDAS paper submission system.

Smaller scale events typically involve local law enforcement and emergency responders. On the other hand, when large scale disasters occur, they can cause widespread damage and overwhelm the ability of local governments and authorities to respond. In such situations, Civil-Military Cooperation (CIMIC) is essential for a rapid and robust response. Across the spectrum of these operations, IoT, Smart Cities, and Smart Environments can significantly improve the ability of emergency responders to quickly understand the situation and conditions (also known as developing Situation Awareness). IoT can help with assessing potential damage that has been caused (e.g., to the city infrastructure, communications and power grid, road conditions, transportation services, etc.). Application of IoT to supply chain management can provide very rapid insights into the logistical situation and result it faster resupply of critically needed materials. User-centered / peer-to-peer IoT services can enable victims to help each other, thereby accelerating the recovery effort. Finally, pervasive deployment of IoT in the context of hospitals and medical services can improve triage and care for those in need. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SCOPE AND TOPICS The scope and technical topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Smart city monitoring and leveraging services in smart city environments for disaster response and other activities. * Integration of IoT capabilities into Emergency Response Centers. * Requirements, examples, and use cases for deployment of IoT for disaster relief and emergency response. * IoT data analytics and visualization for emergency response. * Service-oriented computing, standards and standardization of APIs for IoT and smart cities. * Applications of IoT for logistics and supply chain management, especially in the context of disaster relief. * Applications of IoT for emergency medical response, including monitoring of hospital conditions (availability of space, supplies, and needed expertise / equipment). * Novel integration of IoT-based physiological monitors and emergency responders for triage. * IoT to monitor critical infrastructure, including power grid, transportation, and communications. * Challenges and solutions to deploying and using IoT in degraded environments (e.g., when infrastructure, communications, and electrical power may be limited). * Architectural aspects of bridging civilian and military IoT infrastructure, including federation, security, information, and communication architectures, work flow / business processes, interoperability and Integration of disparate technologies. * Information management challenges for military application of IoT – trustworthiness, pedigree, provenance, and enabling military commanders and missions to benefit from IoT generated information. * Examples of physical instantiations of military IoT systems built from commercially available elements and architectures. * Security challenges related to co-existence and interconnection of military and civilian IoT networks. * Resilience to adversarial security attacks and misuse / abuse of IoT infrastructure and capabilities. * Challenges related to reliability and dependability, especially when IoT becomes mission critical. * Zero-configuration or other approaches to simplify the deployment and configuration of IoT, especially in coalition settings where disparate IoT resources need to coexist and interoperate. * Knowledge discovery, including semantic and syntax discovery of information provided by IoT. * Challenges related to actuation of IoT devices, especially with real-time requirements * Power challenges for tactically deployed IoT devices. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ IMPORTANT DATES Paper Submission Deadline: January 3rd, 2020 Acceptance Notification: January 26th, 2020 Camera Ready Submission: February 27th, 2020 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PAPER SUBMISSION Submit papers at: https://epapers.org/wf-iot2020 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ORGANIZERS Dr. Niranjan Suri US Army Research Laboratory Adelphi, MD Dr. Konrad Wrona NATO Communications and Information Agency The Hague, The Netherlands Dr. Frank T.

The KuVS-Fachgespräch Fog Computing offers a platform to present fundamental as well as application-oriented research results in the field. Fog Computing is nowadays widely accepted as a useful alternative to local solutions and (Cloud-based) centralized approaches to data processing. While Fog Computing provides a wide range of possible application areas, many important fundamental research questions have not been covered in depth yet. Therefore, it is the goal of the KuVS-Fachgespräch Fog Computing to identify research issues arising by the volatility of IoT-based smart systems, and the potentially very quickly changing system landscapes, and to identify how concrete research contributions in the field of Fog Computing can help to overcome these issues. To achieve this, researchers from different subfields of computer science and related areas are invited to present their thoughts and ideas in the field of Fog Computing, including, but not limited to research in the fields of: * Networking aspects to enable Fog Computing * Protocols and algorithms for distributed Fog Computing systems * Cloud Computing * Internet of Things * Software engineering methodologies for Fog Computing systems * Cyber-Physical Systems and embedded systems in Fog Computing * Blockchains and the Fog * Service models and service management for the Fog * Reliability and performance engineering for the Fog * Privacy and security considerations in Fog Computing * User interaction and usability in Fog Computing * Optimization problems and optimization algorithms in Fog Computing * Other related computing paradigms like edge computing, dew computing, and mist computing ###Submissions### Contributions should be submitted as Extended Abstracts.

Conf. on Fog and Edge Computing - Regular Submission 31 Jan 2020 Datum: Wed, 11 Dec 2019 12:09:05 +0000 Von: Blesson Varghese <B.Varghese(a)QUB.AC.UK> Antwort an: Blesson Varghese <B.Varghese(a)QUB.AC.UK> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG =============================================================== 4TH IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON FOG AND EDGE COMPUTING (ICFEC 2020) 11-14 May, 2020, Melbourne, Australia In conjunction with IEEE/ACM CCGrid 2020 URL: http://dream-lab.cds.iisc.ac.in/icfec2020/ ================================================================ We are delighted to invite you to Melbourne, Australia for the 4th IEEE International Conference on Fog and Edge Computing. The Conference will be held as part of and in conjunction with IEEE/ACM CCGrid, 2020, which is sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society and ACM. INTRODUCTION The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm is incorporating “things” from the physical world into the Internet environment to enhance the monitoring and intelligent control of physical, digital and social systems. Such things include smart infrastructures like power grids with sensing and actuation capabilities, mobile platforms like smart phones and vehicles, and consumer electronics and appliances such as refrigerators and healthcare devices. In conventional cloud-centric IoT applications, the observational streams from these things at the edge of the network are extracted, accumulated and processed centrally at public/private clouds, and the responses are communicated back to the things, leading to significant latency and bandwidth costs. To meet the ever-increasing demand for computing resources from distributed applications in the wide area network, academics and industry experts are advocating the use of micro data centers to supplement large cloud data centers. These micro data centers, also called fog resources, are located at the edge of the network, closer to a user in the spatial and/or network topology than cloud data centers. Further, edge devices such as smart phones and gateways themselves have non-trivial compute capacity and are even closer to the user. As a result, it is possible to utilize both the edge and fog resources to off-load computation that would traditionally have been carried out on the cloud. The "Fog/Edge computing paradigm" is expected to improve the agility of service deployments, make use of opportunistic and cheap computing, and leverage the network latency and bandwidth diversities between these resources. Numerous challenges arise when using fog and edge computing infrastructure, which requires the re-examination of operating systems, virtualization and containers, and middleware techniques for fabric management. Extensions to current programming and storage models are required and new abstractions that will allow developers to design novel applications that can benefit from massively distributed and data-driven systems need to be developed. Addressing security, privacy and trust of the edge and fog resources is of paramount importance while managing the resources and context for mobile, transient and hardware constrained resources. Lastly, emerging domains like autonomous vehicles and machine/deep learning need to be supported over such platforms. CALL FOR PAPERS The conference seeks to attract high-quality contributions covering both theory and practice over system software and domain-specific applications related to Edge, Fog and Cloud computing. Some representative topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Data centers and infrastructures for Fog/Edge computing * Middleware and runtime systems for Fog/Edge infrastructures * Programming models for Fog/Edge computing * Storage and data management platforms for Fog/Edge computing * Scheduling for Fog/Edge infrastructures * Performance monitoring and metering of Fog/Edge infrastructures * Legal issues in Fog/Edge computing * Security, privacy, trust and provenance issues in Fog/Edge computing * Modelling and simulation of Fog/Edge environments * Novel, latency-sensitive and locality-critical applications of Fog/Edge computing SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ICFEC will have two rounds of submissions, Early and Regular. Papers submitted to either rounds will be evaluated by the same program committee using the same evaluation criteria. Papers not accepted in the Early Submission round may resubmit a revised version to the Regular submission round provided significant changes have been made to address the reviewer comments. In such cases, a 2-page rebuttal summarizing the changes made must be included in the appendix (excluded from the page limit), and the title of the paper be prefixed with "Revision:". We invite authors to submit original manuscripts that have neither been published elsewhere nor are under review at a different venue.

However, despite the research advancements in recent years, many open issues still prevent the full realization of such vision. To meet the requirements of SEs, telecommunication systems should support significantly high data rates, traffic capacity, connection density, energy efficiency, as well as small latency. Being massively distributed into the environment, smart objects may generate, collect, exchange and process big data, provide distributed services, offer computational resources, and cooperate to perform some tasks locally, as well as to delegate their execution to more powerful nodes in the cloud or at the network edge. In addition to the traditional pull-based data delivery, push-based and publish/subscribe traffic patterns must be supported. To accommodate newly emerging more demanding services the network infrastructure should be agile, cost effective and possibly softwarized. The satisfaction of security and privacy requirements will play a fundamental role in the SEs; indeed, without effective mechanisms, attacks and malfunctions in the IoT will outweigh any of their benefits. The PERSIST-IoT workshop aims to solicit a collection of innovative papers reporting the most recent advancements in the fields of smart architecture, protocols and practical implementations enabling IoT for smart environments. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to the following: · Models of network component interactions on smart environments; · Distributed sensing and control in smart environments; · Mobile-aware cloud computing models, infrastructures, and approaches for smart environments; · Mobile edge computing for smart environments; · Crowdsourcing in smart environments; · IoT architecture and middleware; · Novel communication protocols for M2M/MTC communication; · Novel networking paradigms (e.g., ICN, SDN) for IoT; · Energy efficient solutions for IoT; · Device-2-device communications (D2D); · Reliability, security, privacy and trust in smart environment ecosystems; · Business models to promote user collaboration and resource sharing in smart environments; · Testbeds demonstrating the feasibility of smart environments; · Applications, business, standards, and social issues. ******************************************************************************* * Important dates * Abstract Registration: January 7, 2020 Submission Deadline: January 15, 2020 Notification of Acceptance: February 15, 2020 Camera Ready: March 6, 2020 ******************************************************************************* * Submission instructions * Submissions will be accepted through EDAS (https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=26855).

ICCCN is one of the leading international conferences for presenting novel ideas and fundamental advances in the fields of computer communications and networks. ICCCN serves to foster communication among researchers and practitioners with a common interest in improving computer communications and networking through scientific and technological innovation. Scope: The primary focus of the ICCCN 2020 conference is on new and original research results in the areas of design, implementation, and applications of computer communications and networks. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: • Cognitive, Ad Hoc, Mobile, and Mesh Networks (CAMM) • Communication Architecture, Algorithms, Modeling and Evaluation (CAAME) • Data Centers and Big Data Computing (DCBC) • Game, AI, and ML aided Network Design and Application (GAM) • Green Networking and Sustainable Computing (GREEN) • Grid, Cloud, Internet and Middleware Computing and Communication (GCIM) • Internet of Things (IoT) • Multimedia and Real-Time Networking (MRN) • Security, Privacy, Trust and Incentives (SPTI) • Sensor/Embedded Networks and Pervasive Computing (SNPC) • Software Defined Networks and Network Virtualization Technologies (SDN/NFV) • Social Networks and Computing (SNC) • Hot Topics in Networking (HOT) Instructions for Authors: Submitted manuscripts must be formatted in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font) and must be submitted via EasyChair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icccn2020) as PDF files (formatted for 8.5×11-inch paper). The manuscripts should be no longer than 9 pages. Up to two additional pages are permitted if the authors are willing to pay extra charge at the time of publication (manuscripts should not exceed 11 pages in total in IEEE format). Submitted papers should not be previously published in or be under consideration for publication in another conference or journal. Paper titles and/or author names cannot be changed and/or added to the papers once papers are submitted to ICCCN 2020 for review. The Program Committee reserves the right to not review papers that either exceed the length specification or have been submitted or published elsewhere. Submissions must include a title, abstract, keywords, author(s) and affiliation(s) with postal and e-mail addresses. Note: If a submission is not accepted as a regular paper, it may be accepted as a “short paper”. All accepted papers will be considered for the Best Paper Award. The paper’s abstract must be registered on EasyChair by the deadline indicated below. Review and Publication of Manuscripts: Submitted papers will be reviewed by the TPC and judged on originality, technical correctness, relevance, and quality of presentation.
