The goal is to connect devices that are able to self-configure and self-adapt to contextual changes through collaboration, instead of expecting direct human input. Nevertheless, this seamless integration of the cyber capabilities of the corresponding devices with the physical world, is poised to take the threats against this technology to the next level. In this context, every threat against IoT may constitute a threat against the physical assets of systems and such threats may be even translated to loss of human lives. The focus of SPIoT is on high quality research papers about state of the art in a wide range of IoT-related technologies: - Security and privacy in heterogeneous IoT. - Secure and Privacy Preserving Data Mining and Aggregation in IoT applications. - Cross-domain trust management in smart networks. - Secure authentication of IoT devices. - MAC layer security protocols for the IoT applications. - IoT security mechanisms targeting application layer protocols. - Resource-savvy Intrusion Detection for Networks of Things. - IoT-based malware mitigation. Proceedings: All accepted papers will be published by Springer LNCS (Lecture Notes in Computer Science) in SpaCCS 2019 Workshops Proceedings (indexed by EI Compendex). ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

At the same time, the edge of the Internet is increasingly empowered with new capabilities, like pervasive sensing and computing power, which opens the way to new domains, services and business models beyond traditional mobile Internet, such as connected cars, participatory and urban sensing, industrial IoT. As a consequence, new types of information have to be delivered by the network with varying requirements in terms of reliability, transmission rates and latency. To cope with the exponential growth of devices and mobile data traffic, there is a need for clean-slate or evolutionary Internet architectures merging and assembling different network technologies, supporting new paradigms for wired/wireless system planning and optimization, efficient transport over heterogeneous wireless access options, efficient and quality-aware content distribution, and new approaches for unified operations and management of the heterogeneous components, like software-defined systems and network function virtualization. These are only some examples of the challenges that are of interest to IFIP WWIC 2019.

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Valeria Loscri <valeria.loscri(a)INRIA.FR> Gesendet: 18. März 2019 13:56:44 MEZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Cfp 1st workshop on Pervasive Systems in the IoT era (PERSIST-IoT) @ACM MobiHoc 2019 [Our apologizes for multiple copies of this cfp] ****************************************************************************************************** 1st Workshop on Pervasive Systems in the IoT era (PERSIST-IoT) in conjunction with ACM MobiHoc 2019 2 – 5 July 2019, Catania (Italy) http://www.grc.upv.es/persist-iot2019/ <http://www.grc.upv.es/persist-iot2019/> ****************************************************************************************************** Call for Papers Leveraging on the global interconnection of billions of tiny smart objects, the Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm is fostering the idea of Pervasive Smart Systems (PSSs), where all the data gathered by different “things” can be analyzed and used to improve the livability, the safety and the security of the environment, and to make IoT user 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 PSSs, telecommunication systems should deliver significantly high data rates, traffic capacity, connection density, energy efficiency, as well as small latencies. Being massively distributed into the environment, smart things 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 services, the network infrastructure should be agile, cost effective and possibly softwarized. Finally, meeting security and privacy requirements will play a fundamental role in the PSSs; 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 network architecture, protocols and practical implementations enabling IoT for smart systems applications. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to the following: Topics of interests could be: * Models of network component interactions for IoT systems; * Distributed sensing and control in pervasive systems; * Mobile-aware cloud computing models, infrastructures, and approaches for pervasive systems; * Mobile edge computing for smart environments; * Crowdsourcing in smart environments; * Novel communication protocols for M2M/MTC communication; * Novel networking paradigms (e.g., ICN, SDN) for IoT; * Energy efficient solutions for IoT; * Reliability, security, privacy and trust in pervasive systems; * Business models to promote user collaboration and resource sharing in pervasive systems; * Interaction of human-IoT for pervasive systems * Social networking in IoT architecture and middleware; * Social IoT models, e.g., co-location, co-work, ownership, and etc. * Cyber-physical-social security for pervasive systems * Social-based routing protocols and architectures for pervasive systems * Testbeds, applications, business, standards, and social issues Important Dates: Abstract Registration: April 1, 2019 Submission deadline: April 7, 2019 Notification of acceptance: May 5, 2019 Camera Ready: May 12, 2019 Program: May 31, 2018 Authors information: Papers should be submitted via the HotCRP submission website.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP JSAC Special Issue on "Millimeter-wave Networking"

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP JSAC Special Issue on "Millimeter-wave Networking" Datum: Sat, 16 Mar 2019 15:47:27 +0100 Von: Joerg Widmer <joerg.widmer(a)IMDEA.ORG> Antwort an: Joerg Widmer <joerg.widmer(a)IMDEA.ORG> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear colleagues, Please accept our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. *Call For Papers* Special Issue on Millimeter-wave Networking IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications https://www.comsoc.org/publications/journals/ieee-jsac/cfp/millimeter-wave-… *Important Dates* Manuscript Due: April 30, 2019 First revision notification: June 30, 2019 Acceptance notification: August 31, 2019 Final manuscript due: September 30, 2019 Expected Publication of the Special Issue: Fourth Quarter 2019 *Scope and Motivation* The increasing density of wireless devices, ever-growing demands for extremely high-data rates, and the spectrum scarcity at the sub-6 GHz bands are making the use of spectrum-rich millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies among the most important components of future wireless networks. The major commercial potential of mmWave networks has led to mmWave being considered as a key element of 5G-and-beyond mobile cellular networks, as well as for emerging Gbps-speed Wi-Fi networks based on the IEEE 802.11ad and draft IEEE 802.11ay standards. Despite this intense interest in mmWave from both the research community and industry, much fundamental research is still needed, especially at the networking layers. Compared to traditional wireless communication systems, the special propagation features and hardware constraints of mmWave systems introduce many new challenges in the design of efficient and robust medium access control (MAC), routing, and transport protocols. Communication at such high frequencies suffers from high attenuation and signal absorption as well as high penetration loss, requiring the use of highly directional antennas. This move from conventional omnidirectional networks to directional, blockage-prone mmWave connectivity marks a true paradigm shift for mmWave networking, affecting the design of all aspects of network control and resource management. The extremely high data rates achievable at mmWave come at the price of high coordination overhead. This in turn requires a radical rethinking of the design of all aspects of network coordination and resource management, including cell-discovery and initial access, mobility management, routing, coordination, scheduling, user association, resource allocation, and network planning. Presently, there is arguably an adequate understanding of physical layer issues. By contrast, the upper layers of the protocol stack are still largely unexplored in the context of efficient and robust mmWave networking. The severe channel attenuation, vulnerability to blockage by mobile and environmental obstacles, inherent directionality of mmWave links, the reduced interference footprint, complicated channel establishment and mobility management, and high signaling overhead of mmWave networks demand a thorough reconsideration of traditional protocols and design principles at the MAC as well as the higher layers. This special issue seeks new ideas to address networking challenges of future mmWave networks. The purpose is not only to serve as a collection of recent developments of mmWave communications, but also to inspire readers/researchers to contribute in this exciting and promising field. Prospective authors are invited to submit high-quality original manuscripts on topics including, but not limited to: - Network planning, optimization and learning theories for mmWave networks - Performance analysis, optimization, and fundamental limits - Signal processing for effective networking - Measurement studies and deployment experiences of mmWave networks - Routing, scheduling, resource allocation, and interference management - Initial access and link establishment for mmWave networks - Mobility management and seamless handover for mmWave networks - Association and coordination among access points/base stations and terminals/mobile equipment - Spectrum sharing (bandwidth or infrastructure) for mmWave networks - Beam-steering and tracking algorithms for mmWave networks - Scalable wireless access algorithms for large numbers of connected devices - Novel transport protocols for mmWave networks - Cross-layer adaptation for mmWave networks - Coexistence/integration with e.g. microwave technologies in heterogeneous networks *Guest Editors of the Special Issue* Carlo Fischione KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden Email: carlofi(a)kth.se Ljiljana Simic RWTH Aachen University, Germany Email: lsi(a)inets.rwth-aachen.de Joerg Widmer IMDEA Networks, Spain Email: joerg.widmer(a)imdea.org Sandeep Rangan NYU Tandon, NY, USA Email: srangan(a)nyu.edu Dimitrios Koutsonikolas University at Buffalo, Buffalo, NY, USA Email: dimitrio(a)buffalo.edu Xinyu Zhang UC San Diego, CA, USA Email: xyzhang(a)ucsd.edu Anfu Zhou Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, China Email: zhouanfu(a)bupt.edu.cn -- http://people.networks.imdea.org/~joerg_widmer/ ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

At the same time, the edge of the Internet is increasingly empowered with new capabilities, like pervasive sensing and computing power, which opens the way to new domains, services and business models beyond traditional mobile Internet, such as connected cars, participatory and urban sensing, industrial IoT. As a consequence, new types of information have to be delivered by the network with varying requirements in terms of reliability, transmission rates and latency. To cope with the exponential growth of devices and mobile data traffic, there is a need for clean-slate or evolutionary Internet architectures merging and assembling different network technologies, supporting new paradigms for wired/wireless system planning and optimization, efficient transport over heterogeneous wireless access options, efficient and quality-aware content distribution, and new approaches for unified operations and management of the heterogeneous components, like software-defined systems and network function virtualization.

In this context, the popularity of portable computing devices, like smartphones, tablets, or smart watches combined with the emergence of many other small smart objects with computational, sensing and communication capabilities coupled with the popularity of social networks and new human-technology interaction paradigms is creating unprecedented opportunities for each of us to do something useful, ranging from a single person to the whole world. Furthermore, Internet of Things, Smart-cities, distributed sensing and Fog computing are representative examples of modern ICT paradigms that aim to describe a dynamic and globally cooperative infrastructure built upon objects’ intelligence and self-configuring capabilities. These connected objects are finding their way into our pockets, vehicles, urban areas and infrastructure, thus becoming the very texture of our society and providing us the possibility, but also the responsibility, to shape it. In GOODTECHS we are hence interested in experiences with the design, implementation, deployment, operation and evaluation of smart objects and technologies for social good. Clearly, we are not considering only the so called first world as the scenario for this evolution; we also refer to those areas where ICT is currently less widespread, hoping that it may represent a societal development opportunity rather than a source for further divide. Topics Authors are solicited to submit original, previously unpublished papers in the following, but not limited to topic areas: - App concepts and technologies for different mobile platforms - Blockchain for social good - Communication between mobile devices - Content Distribution - E-learning solutions - Data collection, organization and dissemination methods - Delay-tolerant aerial networks and ferrying approaches - Deployment and field-testing - Digital tools for art and feelings - Environment sensing, monitoring and preservation - Experimental results of communication testbeds - Game, entertainment, and multimedia applications - Health and social care - Human-object interaction - ICT for development - Mobile service architectures and frameworks - Mobility and handover management - New application scenarios for vehicular communications - Pervasive and ubiquitous services in cloud and IoT - Platforms and frameworks for mobile devices - Privacy issues and solutions - Protocol design, testing and verification - Security issues, architectures and solutions - Smart cities and transportation - Smart economy solutions: e-banking, e-business - Smart governance and e-administration - Smart living and E-health - Technology addressing the digital divide SPECIAL SESSIONS ================ In addition to the main conference, GOODTECHS19 features special sessions, aimed to emphasize emerging topics not fully or not specifically covered in the main conference. Special sessions highlight current topics related to experiences with the design, implementation, deployment, operation and evaluation of smart objects and technologies for social good. Presentations delivered during the events should be based on original papers, selected through a peer-review process and that have not been previously published. Accepted papers will be included in the Conference Proceedings. For more information please refer to the main conference website: http://goodtechs.eu PUBLICATION =========== All registered papers will be published by ACM and made available through ACM Digital Library. Papers should be in English. Regular papers should be up to 6 pages in length. Short papers should be up to 4 pages in length. Previously published work may not be submitted, nor may the work be concurrently submitted to any other conference or journal. Such papers will be rejected without review. Proceedings will be submitted for inclusion in leading indexing services, Ei Compendex, ISI Web of Science, Scopus, CrossRef, Google Scholar, DBLP, as well as EAI’s own EU Digital Library (EUDL).

Providing energy ubiquitously to these devices for making them functional for a long time is a challenging task. With the advent of energy sharing techniques, either by wired or wireless mediums (wireless power transfer – WPT), it is possible to extend the lifetime of such networks by utilizing the energy from other energy sources (e.g., chargers, other devices) within the network. Recently, there is a growing number of research studies that adopt the energy sharing for several energy optimization problems in different applications of mobile networks including Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN), Mobile Social Network (MSN) or Vehicular Networks. Energy sharing has been applied between mobile agents ranging from low-power devices such as sensors to moderate and high-power ones such as smartphones and electric vehicles. However, depending on the networking scenario as well as the form of energy sharing, different problems have been studied. This diverse application scenario has on the other hand resulted in isolated research communities working on the similar problems based on the common energy sharing concept in mobile networks. The objective of the workshop is to bring together academics, researchers, and industry professionals from around the world to discuss and exchange ideas on recent developments, current research challenges and future directions in the use of energy sharing among mobile nodes in different network applications and benefit from each other's findings and initiate collaborations to address the interdisciplinary nature of the topic. Toward this goal, the workshop will span the topics including but are not limited to: · Wirelessly rechargeable sensor networks · Device-to-device (D2D) energy sharing in Mobile Social Networks · Opportunistic Energy Sharing in Delay Tolerant Networks · Energy sharing protocols and scheduling algorithms in Mobile Energy Networks · Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) Mobile Energy Networks · Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) Mobile Energy Networks · Incentive models for energy sharing by peers · Energy trading and economy models among peers · Aerial (UAV) Mobile Energy Networks · Far-Field Wireless Power Transfer for Internet-of-Things (IoT) Networks · Crowd charging solutions in Mobile Social Networks · Hybrid Mobile Energy Networks · Software/Hardware solutions for energy sharing among peers · Privacy and Security in Mobile Energy Networks PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION Manuscripts submitted for consideration should not have been already published elsewhere and should not be under review or submitted for review elsewhere during the consideration period. Manuscripts must be written in English, are limited to 6 pages, single spacing, double column, and must strictly adhere to the IEEE template format available here. All accepted papers will be included and indexed in the IEEE Digital Library (IEEE Xplore), showing their affiliation with IEEE WoWMoM. There will be no separate workshop registration, as one single registration will cover both conference and workshops participation. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to attend and present his/her work at the workshop. Papers must be submitted electronically through EDAS ( https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=25783).

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering - Special Issue on Edge computing for Internet of Things
by Lars Wolf 12 Mar '19

12 Mar '19

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering - Special Issue on Edge computing for Internet of Things Datum: Tue, 12 Mar 2019 16:16:24 -0300 Von: Qiang Ye <qiangye(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Qiang Ye <qiangye(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG *CALL FOR PAPERS* *IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering* *Special Issue on Edge computing for Internet of Things* *TOPIC SUMMARY:* The Internet of Things (IoT) are expected to improve the quality of human lives through billions of Internet-based devices. To satisfy the computation and storage requirements of IoT, cloud computing has served as the most important computing infrastructure. However, with the explosion of the number of devices in IoT (expected to reach 50 billion by 2020), a large volume of raw data will be continuously generated by IoT devices, consequently making cloud computing inadequate to efficiently and securely handle the data. In particular, cloud computing will be highly limited in terms of network bandwidth and privacy protection in IoT. To solve this problem, many researchers have attempted to move data computation and service provisioning from the cloud to the edge, which results in the area of edge computing and the related fog computing. Early-stage research has indicated that edge computing could potentially enable IoT applications to meet their latency/delay requirements, improve the scalability and energy efficiency of IoT systems, and facilitate contextual information processing. Nevertheless, a series of challenging problems need to be addressed in order to fully utilize edge computing for IoT. For instance, most of the computation resources in edge computing are heterogeneous mobile devices that are highly energy-hungry, which means that edge computing tends to be unreliable. Moreover, how to efficiently distribute computation/data storage and how to combine edge computing with cloud computing in order to provide scalable services need to be further studied. In addition, how to support services without compromising privacy and security is a challenging problem in edge computing. This special issue aims to provide a prime venue for researchers from both academia and industry to discuss the key problems and present the innovative solutions in the area of edge computing for IoT. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Edge/Fog computing architecture for IoT Modeling and performance analysis of edge computing for IoT Communication and networking technologies in edge computing for IoT Mobile computing resource management in edge computing for IoT Machine learning and deep learning in edge computing for IoT QoS and QoE provisioning in edge computing for IoT Trust, security and privacy in edge computing for IoT Energy management in edge computing for IoT Collaboration of edge computing and cloud computing for IoT Experiences in delivering edge/fog-based services Open issues and challenges in edge computing for IoT *IMPORTANT DATES:* Manuscripts due: 04/01/2019 Peer reviews to authors: 07/01/2019 Revised manuscripts due: 08/01/2019 Second-round reviews to authors: 10/01/2019 Final accepted manuscript due: 10/31/2019 *SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:* Prospective authors are invited to submit their manuscripts electronically before the submission due date, adhering to the *IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering* guidelines ( https://www.computer.org/csdl/journal/tn).

According to the vision underlying the IoT, the next step in increasing the ubiquity of the Internet, after connecting people anytime and everywhere, is to connect inanimate objects. By providing objects with embedded communication capabilities and a common addressing scheme, a highly distributed and ubiquitous network of seamlessly connected heterogeneous devices is formed, which can be fully integrated into the current Internet and mobile networks, thus allowing for the development of new intelligent services available anytime, anywhere, by anyone and anything. Many applications with high social and business impact fall under the IoT umbrella, including personal healthcare, smart grid, surveillance, home automation, intelligent transportation, while it is expected that new ones will emerge once the enabling technologies reach a stable state. At the moment, four of the most important challenges are: - Architectures, protocols and algorithms for an efficient interconnection of smart objects, both between themselves and with the (future) Internet within the 5G context. - The creation of value-added services in cross-domain applications, especially open and interoperable, enabled by the interconnection of things / machines / smart objects, in such a way that they can be integrated with current and new business and development processes. - The support of a virtualized IoT based on the concepts of virtualized components and functions within dense and heterogeneous environments. - Security, privacy and trust in the IoT applications, for ensuring that the provided services will protect the usersâ€™ data, provide guarantees that no malicious users/devices will affect the system decisions and that the IoT applications will be secure and privacy-preserving â€œby designâ€ . The aim of this workshop is to bring together practitioners and researchers from both academia and industry in order to have a forum for discussion and technical presentations on the recent advances in theory, application and implementation of the Internet of Things concept: Technologies, protocols, algorithms, and services. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - System architectures for the IoT - Protocols and mechanisms for seamless IoT communications - Modeling and simulation of large-scale IoT scenarios - Enabling standards and technologies for the IoT - Service platforms for IoT applications - Business models and processes for IoT applications - Energy optimization and sustainable operation of IoT devices - Access network issues including mobility management, data dissemination and routing - Testbeds for the IoT - Security, privacy and trust in the IoT context - Experimental IoT system prototypes and pilots - Novel and emerging IoT applicationsÍ¾ including eHealth/mHealth, Smart Grid/Smart Metering, Intelligent Transportation Systems, Smart House/Neighborhood/Cities - Industrial use cases showing gaps to be filled by future research - Ethical issues in the IoT applications - Optimized and robust dynamic spectrum access on IoT - Integration of IoT, Cloud and Fog computing - Emerging communication technologies for IoT, e.g. Low Power WAN and D2D - Protocols and architectures for Industrial IoT - System architectures for massive IoT PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION All submissions must describe original research, not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal.

Understanding the societal and economic impact and human-centered aspects of a smart system or technology in advance and designing the system a-priori with potential value-added services help spur the discoveries of new tools, methodologies and innovative services. Smart service systems span across a variety of socio-technical facets comprising of devices, people, organizations, environments, and technologies to sense, actuate, control and assess the physical, cyber and societal artifacts of the human service systems. Besides the systems being self-adaptive and fault-tolerant, need to be designed in such a way that it can continuously increase the quality and productivity, the compliance and sustainability of the smart services it offers. While human-centered perspective and cognitive learning help create multi-facet value added services and catalyze the sustained economic growth of smart service systems, understanding the multi-modal sensing, control, heterogeneity and interdependency between different physical, virtual and logical components of such a complex system will enable the realization of new transformative smarter service systems. If successful, this can help improve the quality-of-service of the customers, quality-of-life of the citizens and quality-of returns of the stakeholders and investors. Nurturing the development of smart service systems seeks for inter- and trans-disciplinary crosscutting research threads from system and operational engineering, computer science and information systems, social and behavioral science, computational modeling and industrial engineering etc. The goal of this workshop is to bring together practitioners and researchers from both academia and industry in order to have a forum for discussion and technical presentations on the fundamental knowledge and principles of smart service systems that enable the value co-creation in sensing, actuating, data analytics, learning, cognition, and control of human centric cyber-physical-social systems and future of work..
