Regards, Michele Workshop Co-Chair **************************************************************************************************** *Call for Papers* Workshop on Smart Building and Internet of Things to be held in conjunction with the 4th IEEE International Conference on Computing, Communication & Security (ICCCS-2019 - http://www.icccs-conf.in/index.html) October 10 - October 12, 2019, Rome, Italy *Important Dates* Submission Deadline 30 June 2019 Notification of Acceptance 31 July 2019 Camera-Ready Paper Submission 20 August 2019 Date of Conference 10-12 October 2019 *Workshop Description:* Internet of Things (IoT) enables network objects of the most diverse types to dynamically cooperate and make their resources available in order to reach a common goal. Such a paradigm is currently revolutionizing a variety of fields, facilitating and improving human life and work. Among them are Smart Buildings, which are characterized by the presence of smart devices, which give the opportunity to monitor and to remotely control key equipment within buildings. In such an intelligent environment, major goals are to improve the comfort and quality of life of people and to provide decision-support tools in order to aid users in making cost-effective decisions when utilizing electrical energy. Smart Buildings integrate autonomy and adaptive control and are considered as the next generation of buildings that must be allocated in Smart Cities. Smart Building links automation, sustainable development, information technology, security, industrial controllers and communications (among other systems) to achieve an optimal level of comfort and energy consumption. As for now, the research on this topic has a sufficient degree of advancement, however several issues still remain open. Indeed, this scenario is lacking people-centric applications, where the presence of intelligent tools can augment the capabilities of the objects in constructing a relationship with the users and exploit the user profile to construct personalized services; moreover, it is important to define methodologies and algorithms to analyze and exploit the context in which the user lives and works. Based on these considerations, the objective of this workshop is to highlight recent research, development, and evaluation of novel systems in Smart Building scenarios. We are seeking for original, previously unpublished work, addressing key issues and challenges in this area. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: - Active and Collaborative Sensing in Smart Building - Behavioural and Energy Consumption Analytics - Implementation of Social IoT for Smart Building - IoT applications, systems, and testbeds for Smart Building - Models of context and context awareness - IoT for Smart Building devices and accessibility - New design paradigms in human-machine interaction for Smart Building - Cloud and mobile cloud architectures supporting Smart Building through IoT - Privacy-preserving data processing techniques - Big data, analytics, and signal processing for Smart Building enabled by an IoT approach - People-centric applications in Smart Building - Algorithms, architectures and platforms for Active and Assisted Living - Safety and Security preservation in Smart Building - Indoor location and guidance applications *Workshop Chairs* Michele Nitti, University of Cagliari, Italy Virginia Pilloni, University of Cagliari, Italy *Submission Guidelines* The submission guidelines valid for the workshop are the same as for the ICCCS conference. They can be found at http://www.icccs-conf.in/paperSubmission.html. __________________________________________________________ Michele Nitti, Ph.D. Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (DIEE) Multimedia and Communication Lab.

In the meantime, the network infrastructure is in the process of transforming from a hardware-dominated landscape to an increasingly virtualized and software-defined system with storage and computation being offloaded to the edge/fog to reduce network traffic and latency, promote service elasticity and resource sharing, and alleviating the processing load on resource constrained devices. In a parallel effort, Information-Centric Networking (ICN) paradigm has been proposed, providing an alternative to traditional host-centric IP architecture. The recent discussions in the Future Internet Architecture community debated ICN as a perfect candidate for provider-agnostic distributed computation such as fog and edge computing. In ICN, computation can be executed remotely by any node in the network which supports the required compute capabilities which makes the client and the network agnostic of the list of providers and their corresponding IP mapping. The intersection of edge/fog computing and ICN, although compelling, poses new concerns including efficient offloading, security and privacy risks, service orchestration and sharing, and its economical dynamics in multi-stakeholder environments. Given the nascency of the information-centric edge computing domain, further exploration of this integration is imperative; in particular the opportunities and challenges resulting from the need to support massive amounts of shared contents and processing, software defined architectures, virtualized network functions, and the emerging distributed technologies. The IEEE ICEC workshop 2019 has the integration of edge/fog computing and ICN as the central theme, with focus on security vulnerabilities and privacy concerns, service and infrastructure virtualization, data and computation offloading, and economical aspects of resource. The ICEC workshop aims to serve as a place for the meeting of minds from the ICN, NFV, and SDN communities to explore effective integration. The workshop welcomes submissions from both researchers and practitioners from academia and industry that explore challenges and advances in architectures, algorithms, protocols, middleware, and technologies in the current Internet or in the future clean-slate Internet. We also encourage work-in-progress and position papers that describe highly original ideas, present new directions, or have the potential to generate insightful provocative discussions. The workshop invites submissions of unpublished work on the following topics (but not limited to): · Architectures and protocols for edge/fog computing in future Internet architectures · Trends and challenges of integrating edge computing in ICN · Computation offloading in the future Internet · Reliability and availability in information-centric mobile edge networks · Trust management, security, and privacy in edge computing enabled ICN · Accounting, access control, and integration of novel technologies, such as distributed ledger technology · Security vulnerability assessment and novel attack vectors of edge computing in ICN · Edge applications in challenged information-centric networks (e.g., disaster scenarios) · Integration of software defined networking in information-centric networking edge · Network function virtualization in an edge-enabled Internet architecture · Service function chaining and orchestration in multi-access edge computing · Optimizing edge infrastructures with SDN and NFV including hardware acceleration technologies · Advanced tools for automated design, deployment, validation and management of edge computing · Edge performance improvement, interoperability, and scalability studies · Improvements in future communication infrastructure enabled by SDN and NFV including 5G, public, private and hybrid edge clouds · Network slicing with mobile edge computing · Industrial Internet-of-things and edge computing · Economic landscape of edge/fog computing in a multi-stakeholder environment · Pricing and billing in multi-tenant edge computing Important dates Deadline for submissions: June 30, 2019 (11:59 PM, EST) Notification of acceptance: August 15, 2019 Camera-ready version: September 15, 2019 Workshop day: December 13, 2019 Submission Technical papers will be presented in the full-day workshop.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: CHANTS 2019 – 14th Workshop on Challenged Networks – co-located with ACM Mobicom 2019 - submission deadline June 14, 2019 - Los Cabos, Mexico Datum: Fri, 31 May 2019 17:13:17 +0000 Von: Eirini Eleni Tsiropoulou <eirini(a)UNM.EDU> Antwort an: Eirini Eleni Tsiropoulou <eirini(a)UNM.EDU> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS The 14th Workshop on Challenged Networks (CHANTS 2019) http://conferences.ece.unm.edu/chants2019/ colocated with ACM Mobicom 2019, the 25th Annual International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking Oct 21-25, Los Cabos, Mexico Scope and Overview Challenged networks comprise those situations where communication is desired, but traditional Internet architectures fail to provide it effectively. Such networks may be characterized by intermittent connectivity, a heterogeneous mix of nodes, frequent nodal churn, and widely varying network conditions. The applications of challenged networks range from time-critical communications such as for disaster relief to delay-tolerant transmission in poorly connected regions or where censorship should be counteracted. However, challenged networking has also found many applications in everyday settings, for which they were not initially conceived, such as opportunistic networking supporting data-centric communications, traffic offloading from cellular networks, mobile cloud/edge computing, opportunistic and participatory sensing as well as challenged IoT. CHANTS builds on the success of the thirteen previous CHANTS workshops and WDTN 2005, and aims to stimulate research on the most novel topics of challenged networking research. This year’s edition encourages submission of theoretical and experimental work (including studies of real deployment), with a primary interest in new directions of challenged networking in concrete application scenarios and demonstrators in areas such as autonomous driving, underwater robots, emergency response operations, underground mining, interplanetary missions, polar research and unmanned aerial vehicles. The workshop seeks original work presented in the form of research papers describing new research approaches and results, as well as demo and poster submissions. Highly disruptive work-in-progress and position papers are also welcome, provided they focus on particularly innovative solutions or applications for challenged networks. All papers shall be forward-looking, describe their relationship to existing work, and shall argue their impact and implications for ongoing or future research. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: ● Delay/disruption-tolerant networks (DTNs), opportunistic communication and computing ● Modeling and analysis of challenged networks and protocols for challenged networks ● Communication systems and networks for underground mining ● Underwater communication systems and networks ● Security/trust/privacy concerns and solutions in challenged networks ● Networking in polar regions ● Millimeter Wave Networking ● Challenged networking techniques for mobile cloud computing and mobile data offloading ● Challenged networking techniques for participatory and opportunistic sensing ● Challenged networking in the Internet of Things and in Cyber-Physical Systems ● Energy-efficient communication in challenged networks ● User behavior modeling and Quality of Service provisioning in challenged networks ● Space-terrestrial networks, lunar networks as well as interplanetary networks ● Information-centric and content-centric networking in challenged networks ● Real-world mobility trace collection, analysis, and modeling for challenged environments ● Network coding in challenged networks ● Real deployment and case studies in various stages of use ● Configuration, management, and monitoring of challenged networks ● Disrupted scenarios for challenged networks (e.g., disaster relief and emergency management) ● User Interfaces and interactive applications optimized for Challenged Networks ● Test and simulation tools for evaluating challenged network systems Program Committee Chairs Suzan Bayhan (TU Berlin, Germany) Eirini Eleni Tsiropoulou (University of New Mexico, USA) Workshop Web Chair Estefanía Coronado (FBK CREATE-NET, Italy) Publicity Chair Gürkan Gür (ZHAW, Switzerland) Jim Plusquellic (University of New Mexico, USA) Steering Board Kevin Almeroth (UC Santa Barbara, USA) Kevin Fall (Carnegie Mellon University, USA) Stephen Farrell (Trinity College Dublin, Ireland) Jörg Ott (TU München, Germany) Andrea Passarella (IIT-CNR, Italy) Important Dates Abstract Registration: June 14th, 2019 Submission Deadline: June 21th, 2019 Acceptance Notification: July 31st, 2019 Camera-ready: August 12th, 2019 Workshop: October 25th, 2019 Paper Format and Submission Instructions General Paper Format Submitted papers must be no longer than 6 pages, and should adhere to the standard ACM conference proceedings format.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Ubicomp 2019 CPD Workshop CfP] Combining Physical and Data-Driven Knowledge in Ubiquitous Computing Datum: Thu, 30 May 2019 09:31:37 -0400 Von: xinlei.chen(a)sv.cmu.edu An: wolf(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de Dear Lars Wolf, [Apologies if you got multiple copies of this email.] We would like to sincerely invite you to submit paper to our workshop. ================================================================= CPD 2019: The Second Workshop on Combining Physical and Data-Driven Knowledge in Ubiquitous Computing ******Part of Ubicomp 2019****** Sept 9 and 10, 2019 London, UK Website: https://ubicomp-cpd.com/ ================================================================= Many real-world ubiquitous computing systems make use of data-driven algorithms that require a significant amount of data to obtain good performance. System performance of these pure, data-driven systems largely depends on the quantity and quality of the data they use. Under ideal conditions – representative, large, balanced and labeled data – pure data-driven methods perform very well. However, in real-world systems, collecting data can be costly or impossible due to practical limitations. Physical knowledge (strong priors), can help alleviate issues that emerge when good data is limited. This includes 1) domain knowledge from experts, 2) experience-driven heuristics, and 3) analytic models of physical phenomena. With physical knowledge, we can infer target information more accurately compared to purely data-driven models. These priors can also improve performance and robustness when limited labeled data is available. In recent years, researchers have combined physical knowledge with traditional, data-driven approaches to improve model accuracy and system performance. We aim to attract researchers that are exploring fundamental questions about the integration of physical knowledge and data in real-world systems and deployments. We also aim to identify solutions and methodologies that generalize across various application domains. ******Topics of interests****** - Innovations in learning algorithms that combine physical knowledge or models for sensor perception and understanding - Experiences, challenges, analysis, and comparisons of sensor data in terms of its physical properties - Sensor data processing to improve learning accuracy - Machine learning and deep learning with physical knowledge on sensor data - Mobile and pervasive systems that utilize physical knowledge to enhance data acquisition - System services such as time and location estimation enhanced by additional physical knowledge - Heterogeneous collaborative sensing based on physical rules The application areas include but not limited to: - Human-centric sensing applications - Environmental and structural monitoring - Smart cities and urban health - Health, wellness & medical Successful submissions will explain why the topic is relevant to the data limitation caused problem that may be solved through the physical understanding of domain knowledge. In addition to citing relevant, published work, authors must cite and relate their submissions to relevant prior publications of their own. Ethical approval for experiments with human subjects should be demonstrated as part of the submission. ******Important Dates****** Submission deadline: June 23, 2019, submit HERE <https://ubicomp-cpd19.hotcrp.com/> Notifications: July 1, 2019.

Mai 2019 04:23:43 MESZ An: tciin(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: HiPNet 2019 – Submission deadline July 15, 2019 ======================= Call for Papers ======================= 2nd International Workshop on HIGH-PRECISION NETWORKS OPERATIONS AND CONTROL (HIPNET 2019) 25 October 2019, Halifax, Canada http://www.cnsm-conf.org/2019/hipnet2019.html Co-located with the 15th International Conference on Network and Service Management (CNSM) =============================================================== --- SCOPE --- New waves of networked applications continue to push the limits of what is possible with networks today. Augmented Reality and Tactile Internet require ultra-low latency measured in single- digit milliseconds. Requirements of Industrial Internet appli- cations that involve real-time industrial control are even more stringent and tolerate no jitter at all. Compounding this situation is the fact that many of those applications are mission-critical and cannot afford any loss in connectivity or even single p ackets. Collectively, these applications require High-Precision Networks that are characterized by stringent service level boundaries and associated guarantees that border on determinism. This requires a rethinking of many of the principles underlying existing "Best Effort" internetworking technology. Several approaches trying to tackle those challenges are emerging. Data centers with fixed topologies and a constant number of hops rapidly replace conventional routing and more general Internet topologies. Networks are becoming more programmable to allow to custom-tailor and optimize treatment of packets and flows. Related technologies range from Service Function Chaining to Network Slicing to SDN. One overarching question concerns how these technologies can be harnessed and what additional approaches are needed to be able to actually deliver High-Precision Networking. This will involve advances over a wide range of areas, such as programming and processing of packets in the data plane, high-precision measurements and telemetry with nanosecond accuracy at scale, control interfaces and ultra-low latency control loops to optimize service levels, as well as advances in the related platforms and algorithms that allow for their management and control. The workshop aims to provide a forum for researchers, students and professionals from industry and academia to discuss challenges and present work-in-progress and solution approaches to deliver on High-Precision Networks and their management and control. --- TOPICS OF INTEREST --- Topics of Interest to the workshop include but are not limited to the following: - Platforms to manage and operate high-precision networks and services, e.g., Industrial Networks, Tactile Networks, Virtual/Augmented Reality (VR/AR) - Proof/validation of high-precision service level guarantees - High-precision measurement techniques for ultra-low latency and jitter - Service assurance for micro services and service function chains - Applications for Inband Network Telemetry and iOAM - High-precision networking using service function chaining - In-network service level tuning and optimization - Novel network programming models with applications in high- precision Networking - Applications of Artificial Intelligence for high-precision networking - Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) interconnect, wide-area TSN, IP and TSN convergence - SDN applications for high-precision and high-performance networking - High-precision networking over 5G - High-Precision networking services using Fog and Edge Computing - Deployment/operational experiences with Industrial Internet, Tactile Internet, networked AR --- SUBMISSION OF PAPERS --- Authors are invited to submit original unpublished papers that are not already under review elsewhere. Submissions will be subjected to a peer-review process. Papers should be prepared in IEEE 2-column format and must not exceed 6 pages. Short papers are accepted as well and must not exceed 4 pages. Papers have to be submitted electronically in PDF format via the EDAS conference management system, accessible via the following link: https://edas.info/N26240 --- PROCEEDINGS --- Papers accepted and presented at HiPNet will be published open access on the conference Web site with IFIP copyright, and will be submitted for possible inclusion in IEEE Xplore, ACM and IFIP Digital Libraries. --- IMPORTANT DATES --- Paper Submission: July 15 Notification: September 2 Camera Ready: September 16 Workshop: October 25 --- COMMITTEE --- WORKSHOP CO-CHAIRS - Raouf Boutaba, University of Waterloo, Canada - Alexander Clemm, Huawei, USA - Mohamed Faten Zhani, ÉTS Montreal, Canada TECHNICAL PROGRAM COMMITTEE - Toufik Ahmed, University Bordeaux, France - Sundeep Bhandari, NPL, UK - Jiasi Chen, University of California, Riverside, USA - Filip De Turck, Ghent University - imec, Belgium - Lijun Dong, Futurewei, USA - Hesham ElBakoury, Futurewei, USA - Israat Haque, Dalhousie University, Canada - Jerome Francois, INRIA Nancy Grand Est, France - Martin Reisslein, Arizona State University, USA - Roberto Riggio, FBK CREATE-NET, Italy - Rolf Stadler, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden - Massimo Tornatore, Politecnico di Milano, Italy - Maria Torres Vega, Ghent University, Belgium - Tim Wauters, Ghent University - imec, Belgium ________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from the tciin list, click the following link: https://comsoc-listserv.ieee.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=tciin&A=1

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Transactions on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies (ETT): Special Issue on Future Internet of Vehicles Datum: Fri, 24 May 2019 12:30:20 +0200 Von: chaker abdelaziz kerrache <ch.kerrache(a)LAGH-UNIV.DZ> Antwort an: chaker abdelaziz kerrache <ch.kerrache(a)LAGH-UNIV.DZ> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG *Aims and Scope* Thanks to the recent advancements in the fields of Internet of Things (IoT), fog computing and wireless technologies, Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are evolving towards a new environment called the Internet of Vehicle (IoV). In addition to vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-roadside (V2R) interactions, as foreseen in traditional VANETs, IoV focuses on the smart integration between humans, vehicles and things to provide not only conventional safety and infotainment applications but also advanced transportation-related services, including autonomous and green driving. Vehicles, equipped with powerful sensors platforms, multiple wireless access technologies, storage and processing resources, become smart self-organizing and cooperative entities that produce and consume data, while also participating to fog computing services. The potential of IoV has been acknowledged by the industrial and academic communities and many specifications targeting vehicular-to-everything (V2X) communications have been carried out by standard development organizations (SDO) such as IEEE, 3GPP and ETSI. However, several open challenges still hinder its actual deployment. First, IoV requires robust networking solutions able to work in stable and intermittent connectivity conditions, while also supporting ad hoc opportunistic interactions, in-network caching and data-centric applications. Revolutionary approaches, such as Information Centric Networking (ICN), could be highly beneficial, but their applicability in IoV scenarios have been only partially investigated so far. Also, the emerging Software Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm, originally designed for wired environments, could be extended to turn the IoV into a flexible and programmable network with optimized resources management. Second, it is expected that each autonomous vehicle will produce one gigabyte of data per second, including information about mobility and operation conditions and multimedia contents about the surrounding environments, e.g., from on-board safety cameras. To support big data processing, analysis and time-sensitive control mechanisms, efficient fog architectures are required. Machine learning and swarm intelligence algorithms can be integrated in the vehicular fog to further improve the service provisioning. Moreover, with the introduction of multiple access edge computing (MEC), more MEC-oriented applications are expected to work in the V2X network. To support the seamless mobility management of those MEC-enabled applications, more effective research is needed including both architectures and mechanisms. Third, IoV raises new security challenges, including the support of trustworthy and privacy preserving communications in presence of distributed and mobile entities, which could also have limited processing resources. In this context, blockchain mechanisms, which leverage a distributed ledger to allow transactions between peers in a network, without the need for a third-party or central trust medium, seem an attractive solution, but further feasibility and evaluation studies are needed in the context of IoV. This special issue solicits original technical papers addressing the main research challenges in the IoV research arena. *Topics of Interest* Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Networking solutions for V2X communications - Cloud and Edge/Fog computing for IoV - Social networks for IoV - Opportunistic IoV - Heterogeneous V2X technologies - Modeling and Simulation frameworks for IoV - Vehicular Named Data Networking (VNDN) - Big data and data analytics for V2X - MEC application-centric mobility management design in IoV - Software-Defined Intelligent Transportation Systems - Security, privacy, and trust in IoV - 5G-IoV integration - Multimedia communications in IoV over NDN and SDN - Performance, scalability, reliability and efficiency of IoV communications over NDN and SDN - NDN-based IoV clouds - Machine learning and swarm intelligence approaches for IoV - Testbeds and validation This Special Issue encourages the submission of original, high-quality papers that are not yet published or that are not currently under review by other journals or peer-reviewed conferences. After the revision process from independent reviewers, the guest editors will make final decisions about the acceptance of the papers and select them based on originality, scientific quality and relevance to this Special Issue. *Important Dates:* Submission deadline: September 15th, 2019 Author Notification: November, 2019 Final Manuscript: January 2019 Publication: To be determined by the publisher *Guest Editors:* - *Chaker Abdelaziz Kerrache* Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, University of Ghardaïa, Ghardaïa Algeria. kr.abdelaziz(a)gmail.com - *Marica Amadeo* Department of ICT Infrastructures, and Sustainable Energy, University Mediterranea of Reggio Calabria, Italy. marica.amadeo(a)unirc.it - *Chengchao Liang* Department of Systems and Computer Engineering, Carleton University, Canada. chengchaoliang(a)sce.carleton.ca - *Syed Hassan Ahmed* Department of Computer Science, Georgia Southern University, Statesboro, USA. sh.ahmed(a)ieee.org ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS *Special Issue in Elsevier IoT* Special Issue on Exploring the Socializing Aspect of Wearable Internet of Things (WIoT): Challenges and Trends Submission Deadline: * July 31, 2019* This CFP can be seen at the website of Elsevier IoT at https://www.journals.elsevier.com/internet-of-things/call-for-papers/social… Wearable Internet of Things (WIoT) has a broader spectrum that holds all the wearable devices that are capable of communicating with each other or at least with the coordinator or sink device (these days referred to as cloud or server). The technology industry recently has a paradigm shift towards smart wearable devices that are capable of socializing with each other without explicit input from humans. These devices can be a smart wrist band that might be able to monitor the health of a person and can communicate with the physician in case of an emergency or a tracker embedded into child’s clothes that might be able to alarm parents if child leaves the house. Such socializing of these smart WIoT devices has a huge potential in various industries like HealthCare, Special Education, Engineering and Enterprise. Socializing in WIoTs are still in conceptualizing phase and require standardization, benchmarking, architectural designs, models, guidelines, policies and measurement criteria for development and deployment of applications and services. Due to wearable and mobile nature of entities in WIoT, it offers diverse set of challenges when it comes to socializing, including, but not limited to, decentralization, anonymity, security, privacy, trust management, reputation management, uncertainty and pervasiveness. Besides these challenges, several issues like scalability, reliability, adaptability and validity of available solutions are still unexplored. This special issue is expected to provide a platform for academicians and industry researchers to identify and debate technical and non-technical challenges and recent accomplishments associated with dynamic socializing of WIoT. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: · Social WIoT Architecture and Enabling Technologies · Integration, Wearability and User-acceptance of WIoT for socializing · Data Processing and Analytics for WIoT · Enabling Edge Computing in WIoT · Security, Privacy and Trust Management in Social WIoT · Social and Ethical implications of WIoT · Social Media Integration of WIoT · Social WIoT Applications and Use Case Scenarios · Communication Technologies for Socializing in WIoT · Smart Wearable IoT Devices The submitted manuscripts for this special issue will be peer-reviewed before publication.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: The 4th ACM/IEEE Symposium on Edge Computing (SEC 2019) Datum: Sun, 19 May 2019 22:37:20 +0000 Von: Yang, Qing <Qing.Yang(a)UNT.EDU> Antwort an: Yang, Qing <Qing.Yang(a)UNT.EDU> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG The 4th ACM/IEEE Symposium on Edge Computing (SEC 2019) November 7-9, 2019 Washington, DC, USA http://acm-ieee-sec.org/2019/ Submission deadline: May 24th, 2019. Edge Computing is a new computing paradigm where server resources, ranging from a credit-card size computer to a small data center, are placed closer to data and information generation sources. Application and systems developers use these resources to enable a new class of latency and bandwidth sensitive applications that are not realizable with current cloud computing architectures. Edge computing represents a counterpoint to the consolidation of computing into massive data centers, which has dominated the discourse in cloud computing for well over a decade. Popular terms such as micro-data centers, intelligent edges, cloudlets, and fog have been used interchangeably to describe edge computing. The Fourth ACM/IEEE Symposium on Edge Computing (SEC) seeks to present exciting, innovative research related to the design, implementation, analysis, evaluation, and deployment of computer systems and applications at the network edge. SEC is a forum for top researchers, engineers, students, entrepreneurs, and government officials come together under one roof to discuss the opportunities and challenges that arise from rethinking cloud computing architectures and embracing edge computing. SEC takes a broad view of edge computing and solicits contributions from many fields of systems practice that embrace any aspect of edge computing. Topics include, but are not limited to: * edge computing infrastructure and edge-enabled applications * cellular infrastructure for edge computing * edge computing as an enabler of 5G applications and services * networking, e.g., from clients to the edge, and from the edge to the cloud * IoT hubs * algorithms and techniques for machine learning and AI at the edge * geo-distributed analytics and indexing on edge nodes * hardware architectures for edge computing and devices * monitoring, management, and diagnosis in edge computing * resource management and reliability for edge computing * security and privacy issues * vehicular, enterprise, and manufacturing systems * programming models and toolkits Important Dates: Paper Submission: May 24, 2019 (Abstract registration is optional) Acceptance Notification: July 26, 2019 Camera-ready: September 20, 2019 General Chairs Songqing Chen, George Mason University Ryokichi Onishi, Toyota InfoTechnology Center Program Chairs Ganesh Ananthanarayanan, Microsoft Research Qun Li, College of William & Mary Program Committee Aakanksha Chowdhery, Google Brad Behm, Amazon Dongsu Han, KAIST Ellen Zegura, Georgia Tech Eyal de Lara, University of Toronto Fadel Adib, MIT Klara Nahrstedt, University of Illinois Kurtis Heimerl, University of Washington Landon Cox, Microsoft Research Lin Zhong, Rice University Mahadev Satyanarayanan, Carnegie Mellon University Michael Rabinovich, Case Western Reserve University Padmanabhan Pillai, Intel Labs Ramesh Govindan, University of Southern California Salman Avestimehr, University of Southern California Sanjay Rao, Purdue University Shivaram Venkataraman, University of Wisconsin Swaminathan Sundararaman, Parallel Machines Umakishore Ramachandran, Georgia Tech Weisong Shi, Wayne State University Wenjun Hu, Yale University Yifan Zhang, Binghamton University Yiran Chen, Duke University Yuanchao Shu, Microsoft Research Steering Committee Victor Bahl, Microsoft Research Flavio Bonomi, Nebbiolo Technologies, Inc Rong Chang, IBM Research Dejan Milojicic, HP Labs Michael Rabinovich, Case Western Reserve University Weisong Shi, Wayne State University (Chair) Junshan Zhang, Arizona State University Tao Zhang, Cisco Workshop Chair Aziz Mohaisen, University of Central Florida Panel Chair Weisong Shi, Wayne State University Poster/Demo Chair Xiang Chen, George Mason University Women-in-Computing Forum Lei Ding, Accenture Research Yao Liu, SUNYBinghamton Ph.D. Student Forum An Wang, Case Western Reserve University Industry Liaison Chris Ramming, VMWare Local Arrangement Chair Yue Cheng, George Mason University Finance and Registration Chair Jiang Li, Howard University Publication Chair Haris Volos, DENSO International America, Inc Publicity Chairs Christer Boberg, Ericsson (Europe) Xiaohui Peng, Chinese Academy of Sciences (China) Yoshikatsu Okazaki, NTT Corporation (Japan) Qing Yang, University of North Texas (USA) Student Travel Award Chair Yifan Zhang, SUNY Binghamton Webmaster Lanyu Xu, Wayne State University ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Such networks may be characterized by intermittent connectivity, a heterogeneous mix of nodes, frequent nodal churn, and widely varying network conditions. The applications of challenged networks range from time-critical communications such as for disaster relief to delay-tolerant transmission in poorly connected regions or where censorship should be counteracted. However, challenged networking has also found many applications in everyday settings, for which they were not initially conceived, such as opportunistic networking supporting data-centric communications, traffic offloading from cellular networks, mobile cloud/edge computing, opportunistic and participatory sensing as well as challenged IoT. CHANTS builds on the success of the thirteen previous CHANTS workshops and WDTN 2005, and aims to stimulate research on the most novel topics of challenged networking research. This year’s edition encourages submission of theoretical and experimental work (including studies of real deployment), with a primary interest in new directions of challenged networking in concrete application scenarios and demonstrators in areas such as autonomous driving, underwater robots, emergency response operations, underground mining, interplanetary missions, polar research and unmanned aerial vehicles. The workshop seeks original work presented in the form of research papers describing new research approaches and results, as well as demo and poster submissions. Highly disruptive work-in-progress and position papers are also welcome, provided they focus on particularly innovative solutions or applications for challenged networks. All papers shall be forward-looking, describe their relationship to existing work, and shall argue their impact and implications for ongoing or future research. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: ● Delay/disruption-tolerant networks (DTNs), opportunistic communication and computing ● Modeling and analysis of challenged networks and protocols for challenged networks ● Communication systems and networks for underground mining ● Underwater communication systems and networks ● Security/trust/privacy concerns and solutions in challenged networks ● Networking in polar regions ● Millimeter Wave Networking ● Challenged networking techniques for mobile cloud computing and mobile data offloading ● Challenged networking techniques for participatory and opportunistic sensing ● Challenged networking in the Internet of Things and in Cyber-Physical Systems ● Energy-efficient communication in challenged networks ● User behavior modeling and Quality of Service provisioning in challenged networks ● Space-terrestrial networks, lunar networks as well as interplanetary networks ● Information-centric and content-centric networking in challenged networks ● Real-world mobility trace collection, analysis, and modeling for challenged environments ● Network coding in challenged networks ● Real deployment and case studies in various stages of use ● Configuration, management, and monitoring of challenged networks ● Disrupted scenarios for challenged networks (e.g., disaster relief and emergency management) ● User Interfaces and interactive applications optimized for Challenged Networks ● Test and simulation tools for evaluating challenged network systems Program Committee Chairs Suzan Bayhan (TU Berlin, Germany) Eirini Eleni Tsiropoulou (University of New Mexico, USA) Workshop Web Chair Estefanía Coronado (FBK CREATE-NET, Italy) Publicity Chair Gürkan Gür (ZHAW, Switzerland) Jim Plusquellic (University of New Mexico, USA) Steering Board Kevin Almeroth (UC Santa Barbara, USA) Kevin Fall (Carnegie Mellon University, USA) Stephen Farrell (Trinity College Dublin, Ireland) Jörg Ott (TU München, Germany) Andrea Passarella (IIT-CNR, Italy) Important Dates Abstract Registration: June 14th, 2019 Submission Deadline: June 21th, 2019 Acceptance Notification: July 31st, 2019 Camera-ready: August 12th, 2019 Workshop: October 25th, 2019 Paper Format and Submission Instructions General Paper Format Submitted papers must be no longer than 6 pages, and should adhere to the standard ACM conference proceedings format.
