Multiple industries are progressively investing in environmental sustainability initiatives and technologies to improve quality of life while safeguarding natural resources. For example, the Internet of Things could be a game-changer for sustainability, as reported by the World Economic Forum, which indicated that 84% of IoT deployments are currently addressing, or have the potential to handle, some of the 17 SDGs. Different challenges need to be addressed, from designing "better" sensing objects, i.e., energy-efficient, low power, and able to communicate via wide-area networks, to turning to the general public for deploying such systems and crowdsourcing data using social sensing or citizen science. With the "Networked sensing systems for a sustainable society" (NET4us) workshop, we aim to present and showcase the latest advances in sustainable networked sensing systems to monitor different urban and rural conditions to improve both people's quality of life and reduce climate change. Therefore, we seek original, unpublished papers addressing key issues and challenges in this growing area. Topics of Interest Analysis, simulation, testbed, and measurement campaigns Converged communication, computing, and storage technologies Crowd-sensing, human-centric sensing, Citizen science Data collection, organization and dissemination methods Digital twins networking and system Emerging applications (e.g., IoT for Agriculture, Smart City, Smart Energy, Smart Health, Smart Transport, Public Safety, Humanitarian Technologies, Society 5.0) Enabling communication technologies for IoT (e.g., wireless, optical, acoustic, molecular, quantum) Energy efficiency, energy harvesting, power management, and green operation Industrial Network and Industry 4.0 IoT for Open Science Lightweight security design Novel Internet of Everything (IoE) paradigms (e.g., Internet of Bio-Nano Things, Internet of Drones, Internet of People) Rural area sensing and connectivity solutions Smart objects, cooperative devices, environments, middleware, platforms, and tools Socio-economic, security and privacy, standardization, policy, and regulatory aspects TinyML systems and application Ultra-low-power IoT technologies and embedded systems architectures Virtualization: Multiple sensors aggregated, or sensors shared by multiple users Submission Instructions Please submit your paper via https://net4us2022.hotcrp.com <https://net4us2022.hotcrp.com/>.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] JNSM: Call for Papers: Special Issue on High-Precision, Predictable and Low-Latency Networking Datum: Wed, 13 Apr 2022 11:05:14 +0200 Von: Guillaume Doyen <guillaume.doyen(a)IMT-ATLANTIQUE.FR> Antwort an: Guillaume Doyen <guillaume.doyen(a)IMT-ATLANTIQUE.FR> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG *** CALL FOR PAPERS *** JOURNAL OF NETWORK AND SYSTEMS MANAGEMENT Special Issue on High-Precision, Predictable and Low-Latency Networking https://www.springer.com/journal/10922/updates/19942016 (call closes 31 May 2022) New waves of networked applications continue to push the limits of what is possible with networks today. For example, Industrial Internet applications, Augmented Reality, Tactile Internet require ultra-low latency measured in single-digit milliseconds and do not tolerate jitter at all. Economic pressures mandate increasingly cloudification of real-time applications with precision service level needs. Many of those applications are mission-critical and cannot afford any loss in connectivity or even single packets. Collectively, these applications require networking services that support high-precision and predictable service levels with associated guarantees that border on determinism. This requires a rethinking of many of the principles underlying existing "Best Effort" internetworking technology. Various approaches are emerging that try to tackle those challenges. 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. While 5G is making URLLC at the network edge a reality, momentum for Beyond 5G (B5G) and 6G is building to push the boundaries of precision services beyond the edge and across the core. One overarching question concerns how these technologies can be harnessed and what additional approaches are needed to be able to actually deliver on high-precision networking with service levels that are predictable and that can be guaranteed. This will involve advances across all networking planes, including but not limited to approaches for the programming and processing of packets in the data plane, evolved control interfaces and ultra-low latency control loops to optimize service levels in the control-plane, methods for high-precision measurements and telemetry with nanosecond accuracy at scale, as well as advances in the related platforms and algorithms in the management plane. This special issue focuses on challenges and solution approaches to deliver, manage, control, monitor, and measure high-precision network services that provide applications with predictable service levels that can be guaranteed. This includes (Ultra) Low-Latency networks, deterministic networks, 6G, etc. The special issue specifically encourages submission of papers that describe disruptive concepts, innovative solutions, testbeds, experiments, in addition to more evolutionary approaches. Topics of Interest include but are not limited to the following: • Platforms and solutions to manage and operate high-precision networks and services, e.g., Industrial Networks, Tactile Networks, Augmented Reality (AR), and cloud gaming • Proof and validation of high-precision service level guarantees • High-precision measurement techniques for ultra-low latency and jitter • Service level assurance for micro services and service function chains • Applications for and advances in Inband Network Telemetry and iOAM • In-network service level tuning and optimization; predictable QoS • Novel network programming models • Applications of Artificial Intelligence for high-precision networking • Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), Deterministic Networking (DetNet), Network Protocol Evolution for IT/OT convergence • SDN applications for high-precision, high-performance networking • High-precision cloud networking services using Fog and Edge Computing • Deployment and operational experiences with Industrial Internet, Tactile Internet, networked AR, cloud gaming • 5G/B5G approaches • Testbeds and platforms for High-Precision (OAI, MAGMA, OpenNetVM, etc.) • Network optimization and hardware considerations for fast processing and delivery (DPDK, etc.) *** Submission Schedule *** We use an “open” submission schedule, which means that you can submit your paper at any time before we close the call (see below) and that we will start the review process right after receiving the submission.

IoT produces and communicates massive amounts of data that need to be filtered, analyzed, and processed. In industrial environments (i.e., Industry 4.0 and 5.0) as well as in smart cities, communication between connected devices requires high reliability, low latency, and sufficient scalability. Several technologies such as BLE, Zigbee, Wireless HART, IEEE Std 802.15.4 TSCH, 6TiSCH, LPWAN (LoRa, Sigfox, NB-IoT, LTE-M, etc.), and RAW have been proposed to tackle these communication requirements. The 5G network provides not only increased data rates but also ultra-low data latency communication for critical IoT applications that require extreme reliability. 5G enables Machine Type Communication (MTC), which is used by mobile network operators, equipment vendors, MTCspecialist companies, and research bodies. The high-traffic demand, low-latency, and deterministic delivery requirements stemming from IoT and machine-to-machine (M2M) communications can be met only with radical changes to current communication and networking architectures. Recently, Fog and Edge computing has been proposed to mitigate the heavy burden on the network due to the centralized processing and storing of the massive IoT data. Fog/Edge-enabled IoT architectures ensure closer processing in proximity to the things, which results in small, deterministic latency that enables real-time applications and enforced security. *Topics of Interest* - Blockchain technology for IoTs - Federated Learning for IoT networks - B5G Networks and IoT - IoT Security, Trust, and trustworthy - Secure and privacy-preserving IoT communications - IoT and Personal Data Protection - Artificial Intelligence and IoT - IoT Large Scale Pilots and Portability - IoT Interoperability and Multi-Platform Integration - SDN, NFV and IoT - Intelligent sensor and actuator networks - Emerging IoT Protocols and Standards - Ultra-low-power IoT Technologies and Embedded Systems Architectures - Wearables, Body Sensor Networks, Smart Portable Edge Devices - Design Space Exploration Techniques for IoT Devices and Systems - Heterogeneous Networks, Web of Things, Web of Everything - Named Data Networking for IoT - Internet of Nano Things - IoT Data Management, Mining and Analytics - Distributed IoT Storage and management - Routing and Control Protocols - Resource Management, Resource Allocation, - Medium Access Control - Mobility, Localization and Management Aspects - Identity Management and Object Recognition - Localization Technologies - Edge Computing, Fog Computing and IoT - Fog/Edge Caching techniques for IoT - Machine to Machine (M2M)/Devices-to-Devices communications and IoT - Industrial IoT and Factory of Things and IoTs - Emerging Technologies for the Industrial IoT - Application of Fog/Edge computing to IoT: architectures and implementations - Autonomic Computing for IoTs - Connected Car, Automotive, Intelligent Transport - Cooperative Computing for IoTs - Cooperative IoT and Sensor Systems - Design principles and best practices for IoT application development - Dynamic scheduling, power control, interference management, and QoS - Standards-based IoT large scale pilots/demonstrators - Interoperability methodologies for heterogeneous IoT - IoT big data management and predictive analysis - IoT for smart manufacturing (industry 5.0) and smart spaces - IoT standards platforms interworking - Horizontal application development for IoT - IoT Networks crowdsensing - Mobility, Localization and context-adaptive IoT *How to Submit* All papers for technical symposia should be submitted via EDAS: https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=28485.

Building on the past 18 years of success, the 19th edition will be held in Linz, Austria. The conference continues its aim for broad, world-wide impact. Proceedings will be indexed in the ACM Digital Library, SCOPUS, and other prominent digital libraries. *** Topics of Interest *** Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Communication and networking for wireless, embedded and cognitive systems - Operating systems, middleware, and services - Processing, storage, and management of data - Communication and programming paradigms, languages and tools - Dependability (real-time, reliability, availability, safety) in wireless systems - Neuromorphic communication networks and computing architectures - Wireless system time and location management - AI operated wireless sensing, actuation and control systems - Modeling, simulation, and measurement tools for wireless AI systems and applications - Machine learning and data mining for wireless sensor systems - Services and wireless networking for Cyber-Physical Systems and IoT - Next generation wireless networks, 6G - Privacy and security in applications and systems - Human-centric interaction with wireless and embedded AI systems - Experiences, challenges, comparisons of embedded AI platforms - Applications of wireless embedded AI in health, automation, manufacturing, transportation - Embedded algorithms and systems for computational perception, vision, speech, haptics - Empirical studies, measurement, validation, deployment, experiences - Sustainability and Green Tech (low-power, harvesting, energy management) - Applications and problems from developing countries and emerging markets *** Featured Topic: Unconventional Communication *** Embedded wireless systems undergo continuous evolution, which requires a scientific discourse of relevant trends, such as the emerging topic of embedded systems for 6G. "Unconventional Communication" triggers questions for new PHY layers from visual light communication to molecular or microfluidic sensor communication systems for the Internet of Nano- or BioNanoThings. In addition, it challenges higher layers of communications, including embedded systems that incorporate embedded AI for autonomy, safety, resilience, fault- and exception-managing, and being self-reflective, i.e., networked things that act and react in real-time. Moreover, "unconventional" means also to discuss inspiring methods from information theory and complex systems and the far-reaching question of how embedded wireless systems affect compliance with the UN SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals). The impact on climate change, cheap technology for developing societies, beneficial to health and overall development can be supported by responsible and inclusive embedded wireless systems to embrace all people irrespective of race, gender, disability, medical or other need. It is about giving equal access and opportunities and getting rid of discrimination and removal of barriers with different disabilities. *** Submission Instructions *** Submissions to EWSN'22 must be original (i.e., not previously published) and not currently under review by any other conference or journal. EWSN 2022 will adopt a double-blind review process.

Cities can be viewed as a microcosm of "objects" with which citizens interact daily: street furniture, public buildings, transportation, monuments, public lighting and much more. Moreover, a continuous monitoring of a city's status occurs through sensors and processors applied within the real-world infrastructure. The Internet of Things (IoT) concept imagines all these objects being "smart", connected to the Internet, and able to communicate with each other and with the external environment, interacting and sharing data and information. Each object in the IoT can be both the collector and distributor of information regarding mobility, energy consumption, air pollution as well as potentially offering cultural and tourist information. As a consequence, cyber and real worlds are strongly linked in a smart city. New services can be deployed when needed and evaluation mechanisms will be set up to assess the health and success of a smart city. The aim of this workshop is to bring together innovative developments in areas related to sensors and smart cities, including but not limited to: * computing and sensing infrastructures * cost (of node, energy, development, deployment, maintenance) * communication (security, resilience, low energy) * adaptability (to environment, energy, faults) * data processing (on nodes, distributed, aggregation, discovery, big data) * self-learning (pattern discovery, prediction, auto-configuration) * deployment (cost, error prevention, localization) * maintenance (troubleshooting, recurrent costs) * applications (both new and enjoying new life) * smart users experience * trust and privacy * crowdsourcing, crowdsensing, participatory sensing * cognition and awareness * cyber-physical systems * smart tourism Both review articles and original research papers relating to sensors and smart cities are solicited. There is particular interest for papers with advances towards practical experiences and services overcoming the adoption barriers for sensors and smart cities. Submission Guidelines Paper submissions should be no longer than 6 pages with a font size of 10 using the IEEE conference template (https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html). Papers must be submitted electronically as PDF files. All submitted papers will be subject to single blind peer reviews by Technical Program Committee members and other experts in the field. All presented papers in the conference will be published in the proceedings of the conference and submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Authors are requested to first register their submissions and submit their manuscripts in PDF format via EDAS (https://www.edas.info/newPaper.php?c=29353).

In all these applications, UAVs may coexist with ground Internet of Things (IoT) devices. For example, UAVs autonomously perform remote sensing relaying the collected data by the sensors. Moreover, single or multiple UAVs can cooperatively collaborate providing services that require efficient protocols where multiple objectives and constraints should be accounted for. For this workshop, we seek papers that combine the design of algorithms and testbed implementations to develop the theoretical foundations for UAVs as well as the synergies with IoT devices. The numerous emergent applications raised by IoT may require an interdisciplinary approach, involving techniques from algorithm foundations and different areas, such as computer networks, artificial intelligence, concurrent, parallel and distributed computing, security, digital signal, image and sound processing. Topics of Interest - Autonomous sensing via UAVs - Topology monitoring with UAVs - Remote sensing networks via UAVs - Communication protocols of UAVs over IoT - Modeling and analysis of UAVs over IoT - Precision agriculture and UAVs - Crops monitoring in agriculture - Bugs monitoring in agriculture - UAVs for environmental monitoring - Autopilot and UAS autonomy - UAVs path planning and scheduling - Parcel delivery using UAVs - Cellular networks and UAVs - Constrained and multi-objectives problems - Sensors localization with UAVs - UAVs tracking techniques - Cooperative control of multiple UAVs - Cyber-security communications and UAVs - Optimal UAV deployment strategies - Test-beds and experimental results for UAVs - Single UAV applications - Multi-UAV applications - Energy-efficient UAV communications - Machine learning for UAV communications Submission Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on distributed sensor systems related to WiDroIt topics of interest. Please use the US letter size (8.5 x 11 in) standard IEEE conference LaTeX format or Microsoft Word template available on the link below: http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html All submissions should be written in English and submitted as a full paper. Full papers should have a maximum of eight (8) printed pages including figures and references. Full papers are expected to describe fully developed ideas with a thorough evaluation. Note that Wi-DroIT does not follow the double-blind review policy. The names and affiliations of all the authors must be present in the submitted manuscript. -- Francesco Betti Sorbelli ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Unconventional Security for Wireless Communications (USWC 2022): Call for Papers Datum: Mon, 28 Mar 2022 14:27:26 +0400 Von: Martin Andreoni <martinandreoni(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Martin Andreoni <martinandreoni(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Unconventional Security for Wireless Communications (USWC 2022): Call for Papers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The 1st Workshop on Unconventional Security for Wireless Communications (UWSC 2022) -- https://www.tii.ae/workshop/uswc Co-located with EWSN 2022 -- October 3, 2022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Recent advances in wireless communications have supported an increasingly interconnected world: from ultra high-throughput and scalable 5G Massive MIMO systems, to batteryless embedded sensor devices capable of running for years on limited or scavenged power. Behind these networks, the revolution in cloud computing has enabled softwarization of services and unprecedented global access to data. Governments and companies are leveraging these technologies in ways that ensure modern wireless communication networks increasingly permeate all aspects of our everyday lives: from managing power grids, to delivering your pizza. Unfortunately, despite several recent high-profile cases of industrial espionage and embarrassing public data leaks, security is still often considered as an afterthought, even as everything from car journeys, to infrastructure monitoring, to delivering your pizza is increasingly automated. Even when security is prioritized, the pace of technological change and inherent novelty of use cases can expose unforeseen weaknesses – sometimes to dire consequences. The Workshop on Unconventional Security in Wireless Communications (USWC) aims to bring together researchers from fields such as Networking, AI, ML, Telecoms, and Digital Security, and invites them to “think outside the box”. Not only on how wireless communications and networks should, and could, be secured, but how unconventional attacks may circumvent established security dogma. We welcome submissions with unusual takes on existing techniques, proposals for novel security solutions, exposure of atypical weaknesses, and the application of unconventional approaches to solve next-generation wireless security challenges. UWSC provides a venue for researchers from diverse backgrounds to apply novel technologies and techniques in unusual and surprising ways – whether to solve current challenges, or expose inherent weaknesses. Above all, UWSC aims to be a forum for lively discussion and engaged debate on past, present, and future of communication security in an interconnected world. *** Call for Papers *** We invite researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to submit papers (up to 6 pages, double-column) focusing on topics such as: - Wireless security for cyber-physical systems (e.g., factory automation). - Wireless security for critical infrastructures (e.g., healthcare, smartgrid). - AI / Machine Learning for malware and attack detection at the network layer. - AI / Machine Learning assisted security and privacy, at the physical, MAC, or networking layers. - Security protocols for wireless communications and networking. - RF Jamming attacks and defenses for wireless networks. - Localization and positioning privacy (GPS, UWB, BLE 5.2, etc.). - Physical tracking security and privacy. - Ultra low-power security for RF backscatter. - Side-channel and fault attacks on multi-radio devices (e.g., LTE/Wi-Fi/BLE chipsets). - Side-channel attacks on IoT devices (e.g., Dolphin Attack). - Security and possible weaknesses in 6G cellular networks (3GPP, ETSI, IEEE, etc.). - Reverse engineering of and tampering with wireless communications. - Testbed and experimental platforms for wireless security. - Resilience and dependability for wireless networks. - Vehicular networks security (e.g., drones, automotive, avionics, autonomous driving). - Security for UAV swarms (i.e., distributed, highly-mobile systems). - Key management (agreement or distribution) for highly-mobile networks. - Wireless network security in satellite systems. - NFC and smart payment applications. - Cryptography primitives and lightweight protocols for embedded IoT devices. - Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS). - Physical Layer Security based secret key generation schemes. - Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs). - Theoretical and formal approaches for wireless security. - Internet of the Things (IoT) security. - Mobile Security. - Cellular communication security. - Adversarial Machine Learning and Unlearning for wireless communication. - Smart Contracts and Blockchain for wireless communication. In following with the theme of this workshop, we especially encourage submissions which aim to broaden the discussion outside of traditional security challenges and approaches. Examples could include, but are not limited to: - Bio-inspired security solutions. - Visual/movement-based security solutions. - Security techniques based on multi-modal sensor fusion. - Underwater communications security. - Visual Light Communication (VLC)-based security. - Quantum-based security. Well reasoned arguments or preliminary evaluations are sufficient for this workshop. *** Submission Instructions *** Submitted papers must contain at most 6 pages (US letter, 9pt font size, double-column format, following the ACM master article template), including all figures, tables, and references. All submissions must be written in English and should contain the authors' names, affiliations, and contact information. The submission website is available at https://uswc2022.hotcrp.com/. Accepted papers will be published in ACM as part of the EWSN 2022 proceedings. Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their work in a plenary session as part of the main workshop program. *** Important Dates *** Paper submission: June 1, 2022 Notification of acceptance: July 1, 2022 Camera-ready: August 8, 2022 Workshop day: October 3, 2022 *** Workshop Organizers *** - Michael Baddeley (Technology Innovation Institute, UAE) - Carol Fung (Concordia University, Canada) - Aisha Kanwal Junejo (Imperial College London, UK) - Martin Andreoni Lopez (Technology Innovation Institute, UAE) - Willian Tessaro Lunardi (Technology Innovation Institute, UAE) - Diogo Menezes Ferrazani Mattos (Fluminense Federal University, Brazil) ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

The Future Internet paradigm, the proliferation of emerging networks and architectures, wireless access technologies and multi-homing smart devices are evolving towards a competitive environment, where users and devices have access to various resources, while their behaviors become strongly interdependent. This fact demands and motivates the development of user-centric resource management and optimization frameworks, which enable user's self-optimization and autonomy. This vision is further motivated and supported by the convergence of various emerging technologies enabling Cyber-Physical Systems operation, including 5G/B5G/6G technologies, Internet of Things (IoT), Mobile Edge Computing and Software Defined Networking, all targeting flexibility and efficiency. To deal with the involved complexity, and driven by the requirements of autonomy and scalability, distributed resource orchestration approaches appear as a necessity rather than a desire. The REFRESH Workshop aims at to stimulate research on the most novel topics of real-life modeling in 5G/6G networks and beyond. This year's edition encourages submission of theoretical and experimental work (including studies of real deployment), with a primary interest in new directions of wireless networking in concrete application scenarios and demonstrators in areas such as, but not limited to: mobile edge computing, Internet of Things, cyber-physical systems, unmanned aerial vehicles, public safety networks, dynamic spectrum utilization, smart grid communications, wireless power communication, green wireless networks, information-centric wireless networks. The workshop seeks original work presented in the form of research papers describing new research and development approaches and results, as well as work-in-progress papers. Highly disruptive work-in-progress and position papers are also welcome, provided they focus on particularly innovative solutions or applications for 5G/6G networks and beyond.

IoT produces and communicates massive amounts of data that need to be filtered, analyzed, and processed. In industrial environments (i.e., Industry 4.0 and 5.0) as well as in smart cities, communication between connected devices requires high reliability, low latency, and sufficient scalability. Several technologies such as BLE, Zigbee, Wireless HART, IEEE Std 802.15.4 TSCH, 6TiSCH, LPWAN (LoRa, Sigfox, NB-IoT, LTE-M, etc.), and RAW have been proposed to tackle these communication requirements. The 5G network provides not only increased data rates but also ultra-low data latency communication for critical IoT applications that require extreme reliability. 5G enables Machine Type Communication (MTC), which is used by mobile network operators, equipment vendors, MTCspecialist companies, and research bodies. The high-traffic demand, low-latency, and deterministic delivery requirements stemming from IoT and machine-to-machine (M2M) communications can be met only with radical changes to current communication and networking architectures. Recently, Fog and Edge computing has been proposed to mitigate the heavy burden on the network due to the centralized processing and storing of the massive IoT data. Fog/Edge-enabled IoT architectures ensure closer processing in proximity to the things, which results in small, deterministic latency that enables real-time applications and enforced security. *Topics of Interest* - Blockchain technology for IoTs - Federated Learning for IoT networks - B5G Networks and IoT - IoT Security, Trust, and trustworthy - Secure and privacy-preserving IoT communications - IoT and Personal Data Protection - Artificial Intelligence and IoT - IoT Large Scale Pilots and Portability - IoT Interoperability and Multi-Platform Integration - SDN, NFV and IoT - Intelligent sensor and actuator networks - Emerging IoT Protocols and Standards - Ultra-low-power IoT Technologies and Embedded Systems Architectures - Wearables, Body Sensor Networks, Smart Portable Edge Devices - Design Space Exploration Techniques for IoT Devices and Systems - Heterogeneous Networks, Web of Things, Web of Everything - Named Data Networking for IoT - Internet of Nano Things - IoT Data Management, Mining and Analytics - Distributed IoT Storage and management - Routing and Control Protocols - Resource Management, Resource Allocation, - Medium Access Control - Mobility, Localization and Management Aspects - Identity Management and Object Recognition - Localization Technologies - Edge Computing, Fog Computing and IoT - Fog/Edge Caching techniques for IoT - Machine to Machine (M2M)/Devices-to-Devices communications and IoT - Industrial IoT and Factory of Things and IoTs - Emerging Technologies for the Industrial IoT - Application of Fog/Edge computing to IoT: architectures and implementations - Autonomic Computing for IoTs - Connected Car, Automotive, Intelligent Transport - Cooperative Computing for IoTs - Cooperative IoT and Sensor Systems - Design principles and best practices for IoT application development - Dynamic scheduling, power control, interference management, and QoS - Standards-based IoT large scale pilots/demonstrators - Interoperability methodologies for heterogeneous IoT - IoT big data management and predictive analysis - IoT for smart manufacturing (industry 5.0) and smart spaces - IoT standards platforms interworking - Horizontal application development for IoT - IoT Networks crowdsensing - Mobility, Localization and context-adaptive IoT *How to Submit* All papers for technical symposia should be submitted via EDAS: https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=28485.

The focus of IMC 2022 will be on research that improves the practice of network measurement, illuminates some facet of an operational network, or both. We encourage authors to discuss the implications of their results on future research and/or operations. We encourage authors to discuss representativeness and limitations of their work due to coverage of their measurements across space and time. Finally, we encourage authors to validate inferences using ground truth. IMC takes a broad view of contributions that are considered in scope for improving the practice of network measurement, including, but not limited to: * collection and analysis of data that yield new insights about network structure and network performance (e.g., traffic, topology, routing, energy utilization, performance) * collection and analysis of data that yield new insights about application and end-user behavior (e.g., economics, privacy, security, application interaction with protocols) * measurement-based modeling (e.g., workloads, scaling behavior, assessment of performance bottlenecks, causality) * methods and tools to monitor and visualize network-based phenomena systems and algorithms that build on measurement-based findings * Novel methods for data collection, analysis, and storage (e.g., anonymization, querying, sharing) * reappraisal of previous empirical network measurements and measurement-based conclusions * descriptions of challenges and future directions the measurement community should pursue Networks of interest include: * Internet transit networks * edge networks, including home networks, broadband access networks (e.g., cable, fiber), and cellular networks * data center networks and cloud computing infrastructure * peer-to-peer, overlay, and content distribution networks * software-defined networks * online social networks * online services, platforms, and content providers * experimental networks, prototype networks, and future internetworks Authors unsure about topical fit are welcome to contact the program committee co-chairs at imc2022pcchairs(a)acm.org. *Review process and criteria* IMC 2022 invites two forms of submissions: - *Full papers* (up to 13 pages for text and figures + unlimited pages for references and appendix) that describe original research, with succinctness appropriate to the topics and themes they discuss. - *Short papers* (up to 6 pages for text and figures + unlimited pages for references and appendix) that convey work that is less mature but shows exciting promise, OR offer results that do not merit a full submission. Short papers could articulate a high-level vision and describe challenging future directions that the authors believe the community should tackle; validate, verify, or update important results; or present new ideas that challenge existing assumptions. Any submission exceeding the short paper page-length limit will be evaluated as a full paper. Authors should submit only original work that has not been published before and is not under submission to any other venue. We will consider full paper submissions that extend previously published short, preliminary papers (including IMC short papers), in accordance with the SIGCOMM policy and the ACM Plagiarism Policy. The ACM policy on simultaneous submissions does not consider technical reports (including arXiv) to be concurrent publication or submission. IMC 2022 will bestow two awards on paper submissions, (1) a Best Paper award; and (2) a Community Contribution award. The best paper award will recognize the outstanding paper at the conference, and all accepted papers are eligible for it. The community contribution award will recognize a paper with an outstanding contribution to the community in the form of a new dataset, source code distribution, open platform, or other noteworthy service to the community. To be eligible for the community award, the authors must make data or source code publicly available or have a software artifact that is accessible and usable by the public at the time of the camera-ready deadline. The authors indicate their eligibility on the submission form and are also encouraged to include a link to the contribution in the submitted paper. There will be an opt-in shadow TPC for IMC 2022, to provide additional researchers (primarily junior ones) an opportunity to gain experience with reviewing and discussing paper submissions. The shadow TPC members will be bound to the same strict confidentiality rules that apply to the IMC 2022 TPC. Authors may opt into this shadow PC by unchecking a box on the submission form. Doing so will not adversely affect your submission in any way. Reviews from the shadow PC will be returned to authors, providing the incentive of additional feedback from the community. As an experiment this year, the shadow PC will rank the top three papers in their set of submissions. A (non-shadow) TPC member will convey shadow TPC feedback about those top three papers at the IMC TPC meeting. The shadow PC will also select a best paper from the set of papers accepted by the (non-shadow) IMC TPC. A few accepted papers may be forwarded for fast-track submission to IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking. *Early Rejection* The review process will have several reviewing rounds. To allow authors time to improve their work and submit to other venues, authors of submissions for which there is a consensus on rejection will be notified early. *Anonymity Guidelines* Authors are expected to make a good-faith effort to anonymize papers. As an author, you should not identify yourself in the paper either explicitly or by implication (e.g., through the references). Anonymization of important details are not required, if they are critical for the evaluation of the paper. For example, system names may be left de-anonymized, if the system name is important for a reviewer to be able to evaluate the work, and the paper may point to existing public datasets and artifacts that highlight or underscore the contributions outlined in the paper. Please follow the following guidelines: - Author names and affiliations must not appear on any submission. - Identifying information such as grant numbers must not be included on submissions. - The text of the submission must refer to the authors’ own previous work in the third person, unless the previous work provides important context for evaluation of the existing contribution (e.g., the paper describes an implementation or deployment of a method previously developed by the same authors). Authors are explicitly allowed to post their submissions on Arxiv or other public websites, and reviewers will be discouraged from searching for such listings while a submission is under review. However, authors are strongly discouraged from engaging in publicity for their papers while they are under review, unless doing so is in the public interest (e.g., responsible disclosure). Authors who are unsure of whether they are allowed to publicize their double-blind submissions should contact the program committee co-chairs at imc2022pcchairs(a)acm.org. Additional details on paper anonymity are available here <https://conferences.sigcomm.org/imc/2022/anon/> and in the statement released by the IMC Steering Committee here <https://www.sigcomm.org/content/imc-statement-double-blind-reviewing>. *Ethics* The program committee may raise concerns around the ethics of the work, even if it does not involve human subjects. *All papers must include, in a clearly marked appendix section with the heading “Ethics”, a statement about ethical issues; papers that do not include such a statement may be rejected.* This could be, if appropriate for the paper, simply the sentence “This work does not raise any ethical issues.”. If the work involves human subjects or potentially sensitive data (e.g., user traffic or social network information, evaluation of censorship, etc.), the paper should clearly discuss these issues, perhaps in a separate subsection. Research that entails experiments involving human subjects or user data (e.g., network traffic, passwords, social network information) should adhere to community norms. Any work that raises potential ethics considerations should indicate this on the submission form. The basic principles of ethical research are outlined in the Belmont Report <https://www.hhs.gov/ohrp/regulations-and-policy/belmont-report/read-the-bel…>: (1) respect for persons (which may involve obtaining consent); (2) beneficence (a careful consideration of risks and benefits); and (3) justice (ensuring that parts of the population that bear the risks of the research also are poised to obtain some benefit from it). Authors should further consult the ACM policy on research involving human subjects <https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/research-involving-human-particip…> for further information on ethical principles that apply to this conference. Research involving human subjects must be approved by the researchers’ respective Institutional Review Boards before the research takes place. Authors should indicate on the submission form whether the work involves human subjects, and, if so, if an IRB protocol has been approved for the research. We also expect that any research follows the practices and procedures of the institution(s) where the work is being carried out; for example, some universities require separate approval for the use of campus data. We expect researchers to abide by these protocols. We recognize that different IRBs follow different procedures for determining the status of human subject research, and approval or exempt status from a single institution may not align with community norms. To help the Ethics Committee review cases of concern, there is a need for more information about the research protocol. To this end, if the work involves human subjects, the authors must include with their submission a copy of the form that was used to determine IRB status (approved or exempt), sufficiently anonymized to preserve double-blind review. If the submission describes research involving human subjects and none of the authors are at an institution with an IRB (or equivalent), the authors are nonetheless expected to follow a research protocol that adheres to ethical principles, as stated in the ACM policy on research involving human subjects. In such cases, the authors must use the Ethics section of their appendix to explain how their research protocol satisfies the principles of ethical research. Some research does not involve human subjects yet nonetheless raises questions of ethics, which may be wide-ranging and not necessarily limited to direct effects. We encourage authors to be mindful of the ethics of the research that they undertake; these considerations are often not clear-cut, but often warrant thoughtful consideration. The program committee may raise concerns around the ethics of the work, and so we ask authors to outline these considerations explicitly in a separate appendix section (clearly marked with an appendix section heading “Ethics”), and when appropriate for context, in the body of the paper. The submission form will include a way to alert reviewers of this additional material. Additionally, the program committee reserves the right to conduct additional evaluations and reviews of research ethics and reserves the right to independent judgment concerning the ethics of the conducted research. Contact the program committee co-chairs at imc2022pcchairs(a)acm.org if you have any questions. *Submission guidelines* See https://conferences.sigcomm.org/imc/2022/cfp/ for further information. -- Prof. Oliver Hohlfeld Chair of Computer Networks Brandenburg University of Technology Cottbus-Senftenberg https://www.b-tu.de/en/fg-rechnernetze twitter.com/ohohlfeld www.ohohlfeld.com ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference and attend it. Remote presentation of a paper may exceptionally be allowed in special cases (travel bans, medical issues) when physical participation is not possible. Every paper accepted for DCOSS 2022 (presented in person or virtually) will be published in the IEEE proceedings. Aims and Scope Recently, the rapid development of Unmanned Autonomous Vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, has highlighted a plethora of emergent applications such as infrastructure inspection and surveillance, smart agriculture, seek and rescue, parcel delivery, communications, and post-disaster recovery. In all these applications, UAVs may coexist with ground Internet of Things (IoT) devices. For example, UAVs autonomously perform remote sensing relaying the collected data by the sensors. Moreover, single or multiple UAVs can cooperatively collaborate providing services that require efficient protocols where multiple objectives and constraints should be accounted for. For this workshop, we seek papers that combine the design of algorithms and testbed implementations to develop the theoretical foundations for UAVs as well as the synergies with IoT devices. The numerous emergent applications raised by IoT may require an interdisciplinary approach, involving techniques from algorithm foundations and different areas, such as computer networks, artificial intelligence, concurrent, parallel and distributed computing, security, digital signal, image and sound processing. Topics of Interest - Autonomous sensing via UAVs - Topology monitoring with UAVs - Remote sensing networks via UAVs - Communication protocols of UAVs over IoT - Modeling and analysis of UAVs over IoT - Precision agriculture and UAVs - Crops monitoring in agriculture - Bugs monitoring in agriculture - UAVs for environmental monitoring - Autopilot and UAS autonomy - UAVs path planning and scheduling - Parcel delivery using UAVs - Cellular networks and UAVs - Constrained and multi-objectives problems - Sensors localization with UAVs - UAVs tracking techniques - Cooperative control of multiple UAVs - Cyber-security communications and UAVs - Optimal UAV deployment strategies - Test-beds and experimental results for UAVs - Single UAV applications - Multi-UAV applications - Energy-efficient UAV communications - Machine learning for UAV communications Important dates - Abstract Submission: March 8, 2022 - Paper Submission: March 15, 2022 - Acceptance Notification: April 15, 2022 - Camera Ready: April 22, 2022 Submission Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on distributed sensor systems related to WiDroIt topics of interest.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Sustainable and Resilient Industrial Communication Networks: Publish in IEEE ICDCS 2022 [A Ranked Conference] Datum: Wed, 2 Mar 2022 10:41:28 +0000 Von: Kapal Dev <kapal.dev(a)IEEE.ORG> Antwort an: Kapal Dev <kapal.dev(a)IEEE.ORG> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear All, We are pleased to invite you to submit original contributions to our workshop, IEEE ICNet-2022 In Conjunction with ICDCS 2022- 42nd IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems *IEEE ICNet-2022* *2nd Workshop on Sustainable and Resilient Industrial Communication Networks* *July 10 - July 13, 2022, Bologna, Italy* *In Conjunction with ICDCS 2022- 42nd IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing Systems* Traditional communication network facilitates the data communication between multiple devices and peripherals. With the evolution of devices and systems such as Internet of Things (IoT) and cyberphysical system (CPS), the characteristics of a network has undergone great changes. In order to accommodate IoT and CPS, Industrial Communication Network (I-I-COMNET) was introduced that could handle data integrity and real-time control for large installations in harsh environments. The examples of ICNet include ControlNet, Modbus, DeviceNet, Ethernet, Profinet and so on. The ICNet enables the communication between the devices and elements in an effective way. It forms a communication path among PCs, controllers, and field devices which was difficult to do with traditional communication networks. To achieve complete transparency between the enterprise networks and industrial plant as well as within the industrial plant, industrial Ethernet is used extensively which is part of industrial automation. In this regard, ICNet and industrial automation needs to go hand-in-hand for meeting the real-time operational needs. This is only possible if the information is handled in a redundant and deterministic way. The networks should be able to handle massive number of devices with the support for wide range of standards. Furthermore, the factory system should offer solutions with greater reliability, better efficiency, and faster response times. These benefits could be achieved by designing multi-protocol environment, opting for best communication technology, and urge industries to take initiative for developing interoperable protocols for a sustainable solution. Among the several challenges such as analyzing the data and monitor the activities remotely from home, thus, realizing the smart manufacturing process in the true sense, Low power requirements, smooth communication, integration of next generation networks (NGNs), realizing the communication between cobots will benefit range of applications such as Private 5G, Network Slicing, Automotive industries, and industrial robotics etc. Therefore, this workshop will seek technical, empirical, and conceptual papers that could offer practical and novel solutions concerning the following topics, but not strictly limited to: - AI/ML/DL/FL/TL for Sustainable and Resilient Industrial Communication Networks - Virtualization techniques (Metaverse and Digital Twin) for ICNet - MEC framework for ICNet - Heterogeneous OpenRAN for Industrial communication networks - Security and Privacy for ICNet - Congestion control techniques in improving user experience in Internet of Things (IoT), Cloud, Edge Computing Networks - Quality of Service (QoS) issues such as Dynamic Resource Allocation, Spectrum Allocation, Energy Efficiency - Futuristic paradigms for advanced use cases; adopting blockchain, quantum communication etc. - Parameters like Interoperability, heterogeneity, and bandwidth in congested networks - Sustainable and Resilient Zero Touch Networks for Industrial applications - Network management using Network Slicing, SDN and NFV - Computation offloading with advance AI frameworks - Authentication, auditing and accountability in ICNet - Privacy-Enhancing Cryptographic algorithms for ICNet Secure Federation and Orchestration of Edge Devices for Industrial applications - Human centric Industrial communication Networks - Knowledge transfer from humans to CoBots - Integration of emerging technologies for Sustainable and Resilient Industrial Communication Networks *ICNet-2022 - Submission Guidelines* - Submit your paper using this *EasyChair link <https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Feasychair.org%2Fmy%2Fconference%…>* - Papers should follow the formatting indications of the main conference (*https://icdcs2022.icdcs.org/cfp/ <https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Ficdcs2022.icdcs.org%2Fcfp%2F&sa=…>*) - Remote participation to the workshop is fine in case there are pandemic-related or other exceptional issues related to travel (which may apply e.g. only to some remote geographical locations).

Please feel free do redistribute among your colleagues and friends. Apologies for possible duplicates. Best regards, João Leitão =========== CFP DINPS 2022 =========== Workshop on Decentralized Internet, Networks, Protocols, and Systems (DINPS) Co-located with IEEE ICDCS 2022, Bologna, Italy (remote-friendly) 10th-13th July 2022 https://research.protocol.ai/sites/dinps/ Submission site: https://dinps22.hotcrp.com/ IMPORTANT DATES Submission Deadline: 12 March 2022 (EXTENDED) Acceptance Notification: 5 April 2022 Camera-ready Deadline: 21st April 2022 CALL FOR PAPERS With the emergence of the Web3.0 paradigm as well as the increasing exploration of naturally decentralized computation paradigms as in edge computing, decentralized systems are becoming increasingly relevant. This field is thriving thanks to recent technological advances demonstrating the feasibility of decentralized systems at scale. Existing approaches include blockchain-based systems as well as systems like the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), a peer-to-peer, content-addressable hypermedia protocol that seeks to connect all computing devices within a single distributed system of files. IPFS is additionally complemented by Filecoin, a token-based protocol that supports an incentivized, decentralized storage and delivery network, among others. These projects are open-source and community-driven with reference implementations in multiple languages and a global community of millions of users. This workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners in the fields of decentralized systems, peer-to-peer networks, and edge computing. Now is the time to leverage our expertise and discoveries in this area to define the future of the decentralized Internet: this includes work on underlying technologies and protocols, emerging standards, tools and abstractions (such as the ones provided by IPFS, libp2p and Filecoin), and also emerging applications and use-cases. The workshop will consist of a number of different sessions and session styles that go beyond the traditional presentation-centric workshop. We seek to foster interaction between participants with hands-on sessions that will give them first-hand knowledge of how to use IPFS and Filecoin and interact with these technologies, as well as ecosystem project platforms. A capstone competition will give attendees the chance to develop open-source applications and win prizes. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Architectural proposals for the advancement of the state of decentralized Internet services. - Decentralized and peer-to-peer protocols and applications - Edge computing — with emphasis on decentralized solutions for the far edge and their integration with current Internet architectures - Design, implementation, and evaluation of decentralized, networked systems and CDNs - Socio-economic, legal, and/or regulatory aspects of content-addressable, permissionless, P2P networks - Privacy and security of decentralized storage and delivery systems - Applications that build on top of decentralized network storage and retrieval protocols - Measurement studies on decentralized and edge computing infrastructures - Improvements to the IPFS protocol stack, libp2p, or the Filecoin storage and (especially) retrieval protocol from a performance, privacy, or security perspective - Cross-layer optimization between network- and decentralized service/application-layer protocols (e.g., consensus, pubsub, etc) - Pubsub protocol performance and security improvements for decentralized, blockchain-based systems (e.g., Gossipsub) The workshop welcomes contributions in the following forms: - *Work-in-progress papers* (limited to 6 pages) presenting early findings and visionary protocol development directions. - *Demos* (limited to 2 pages) showcasing a proof-of-concept prototype. - *Tutorials* (up to 2 pages description) which will be part of the hands-on session to demonstrate emerging technologies or applications to build and deploy decentralized systems. Tutorials are expected to last up to 45 min. - *Competition project ideas* (limited to 1 page) to be included in the 3-week post-workshop competition.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE WFCS 2022, Pavia, Italy - WiP paper submission Datum: Tue, 22 Feb 2022 07:57:18 +0000 Von: Gidlund, Mikael <mikael.gidlund(a)MIUN.SE> Antwort an: Gidlund, Mikael <mikael.gidlund(a)MIUN.SE> An: tccc-announce(a)comsoc.org ******Call for Papers - WFCS 2022 ****** 18th IEEE International Conference on Factory Communication Systems (WFCS) 27-29 April 2022, Pavia, Italy (on-line) wfcs22.unipv.it<http://wfcs22.unipv.it/> General Co‐Chairs: Tullio Facchinetti (University of Pavia, Italy) Lukasz Wisniewski (inIT / TH‐OWL, Germany) Work in Progress Co‐Chairs: Mikael Gidlund (Mid Sweden University, Sweden) Henning Trsek (inIT / TH OWL, Germany) DESCRIPTION The Factory Communication research area is becoming increasingly relevant in last years, with communication playing a fundamental role in many automation systems. New generation technologies, such as 5G/6G, WiFi6/WiFi7, TSN, or OPC UA, open the door to a variety of application possibilities, from general automation to IIoT. On the other hand, due to the high variety of available communication solutions, and the fact that different technologies have usually to be combined together in order to satisfy application requirements, industrial communication systems become highly complex and heterogenous. This condition creates several new challenges that need to be tackled to fully exploit the potential of available communication solutions (including subjects related to network management, traffic optimization, virtualization, energy efficiency, and many others). The 18th edition of WFCS will focus on all forms of communication supporting automation within factories and in other contexts, especially considering recent developments. WFCS is the largest IEEE conference that is especially dedicated to communication for (industrial) automation systems and aims to provide a forum for researchers, developers and practitioners to review and discuss recent trends in the area and share innovative research directions. The conference, supported by the IEEE Industrial Electronics Society (IES) and led by the Technical Committee on Factory Automation (TCFA), will be hosted by the University of Pavia (Italy) in collaboration with the Institute on Industrial IT (inIT) of the Technische Hochschule OWL in Lemgo, Germany. Pavia is located in south‐western Lombardy (northern Italy, 35 kilometers ‐ 22 miles ‐ south of Milan). The University of Pavia is one of the world’s oldest academic institutions, with its foundations existing as early as the 9th Century. FOCUS The conference mainly focuses on: Communication Systems and Technologies; Protocols and Standards for Networked Embedded and Cyber‐Physical Systems; Real‐time, Safety, Security and Maintenance of Automation Systems and Networks; applying Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to enhance and Communication Technologies for Industry 4.0; Low‐power and Green Communication in Industry; recent advances in research domains with similar communication requirements. PAPER SUBMISSION Work‐in‐Progress (WiP) Papers: up to 4 double‐column pages, following the IEEE conferences template. Accepted WiP papers will be published in the conference proceedings. IMPORTANT DATES WiP submissions: Deadline: March 10th, 2022 Notifications: March 25th, 2022 Final versions: April 4th, 2022 Work in progress papers Exchange your ideas at an early stage of the work and discuss recent results in the community through the work in progress track. These sessions are intended for presentation of recent ideas and on-going works up to 4 double-column pages, describing research that has not yet produced the results required for a regular paper, but that due to its novelty and potential impact deserves to be shared with the community at an early stage. WIP submissions should be prepared according to the same guidelines as regular papers, and should be submitted through the appropriate track in the electronic submission system. Accepted WIP papers will be published in the conference proceedings.
