-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] Special Issue: Collaborative Sensing, Mapping and Driving, IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology Datum: Thu, 10 Feb 2022 12:46:27 -0800 Von: Hongsheng Lu <hlu(a)US.TOYOTA-ITC.COM> Antwort an: Hongsheng Lu <hlu(a)US.TOYOTA-ITC.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear All, We sincerely invite you to submit work to IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology special issue on Collaborative Sensing, Mapping and Driving. Manuscript submission: 1 March 2022 First review notifications: 15 April 2022 Revised manuscript due: 15 May 2022 Final editorial decisions: 1 June 2022 Final manuscript due: 15 June 2022 Publication date: 3rd Quarter 2022 Call for Papers: *Scope* Connected vehicles and automated vehicles represent different approaches to improve vehicle safety on the road. The former leverages wireless communication technologies to enhance mutual awareness among traffic participants. The latter ramps up individual vehicles’ capability of perception and control to achieve better decision making in the complex driving environment. On the surface, the two technologies seem complementary. Information shared by different traffic entities can be added to a vehicle’s dynamic map, extending its perception horizon, and uncovering None-Line-Of-Sight situations which otherwise would not be available via its own onboard sensors. In return, the vehicle can send what it observes through onboard sensors, which might help recipients avoid previously unaware safety hazard. Furthermore, as reported in the state-of-art research, individual vehicles may navigate themselves more efficiently with global information gathered from others on the same road, generating improved driving safety and efficiency. However, the aforementioned complementary natures of vehicle connectivity and automation do not assure the completed integration of these technologies into vehicles and their interactions. There are questions about the cost, benefits, timeline, performance, hardware/software requirement and interface design of such an integrated system. Many of these questions are nontrivial to answer as it needs joint efforts from numerous technology areas. Fortunately, many scholars and research groups have started to explore these questions, paving the road for a cohesive integration of vehicle connectivity with vehicle automation system. This special issue focuses on the most recent advancements in modeling, wireless communications, vehicle perception, mapping and localization technologies, which can improve the collaboration among individual automated, human-driven, or autonomous vehicles and enable novel vehicular cooperative applications. The goal is to bring together state-of-art efforts in this interdisciplinary domain that analyzes and addresses the challenges in enabling *C*ollaborative *S*ensing, *M*apping and *D*riving (CSMD). *Topics of Interests* 1) V2X (e.g., DSRC, LTE V2X, 5G NR V2X), V2N and V2C protocol design, optimization, testing and evaluation for CSMD 2) Standards related to CSMD, including V2X, V2N and V2C communication, semantics & ontologies, and IoT. 3) Wireless infrastructure (e.g, Edge Computing) development for CSMD 4) Innovative incentives for fair, safe & secure collaborative strategies for CSMD 5) Infrastructure development 6) Data-driven and AI-enabled mechanisms for CSMD 7) CSMD modeling, simulation/validation platform & data sets 8) CSMD oriented use cases development, including report on international and trans-border initiatives for CSMD. 9) High-fidelity connected vehicle collaboration in perception, localization/mapping, tele-monitoring/operation and driving assistance 10) Real-time collaborative ADAS system modeling and implementation 11) Field deployment of CSMD 12) V2X, V2N and V2C enabled collaborative mobility services *Manuscript Submission Guidelines* Manuscripts must follow the author instructions available at: https://vtsociety.org/ojvt-author-instructions/.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] JNSM: Call for Papers: Special Issue on High-Precision, Predictable and Low-Latency Networking
by Lars Wolf 10 Feb '22

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] JNSM: Call for Papers: Special Issue on High-Precision, Predictable and Low-Latency Networking Datum: Thu, 10 Feb 2022 14:20:39 +0100 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 Journal of Network and Systems Management Call for Papers: Special Issue on High-Precision, Predictable and Low-Latency Networking 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. Many of the dates indicated below are therefore stated relative to the date the submission was initially received. • Call closes: February 28, 2022 • Revision notification: 2 months after submission • Revised paper due: 1.5 months after the revision notification • Final notification: 1.5 months after the revised paper notification • Expected publication of the special issue: third quarter of 2022 (early accepted papers will be accessible online before the deadline) Submission Format and Review Guidelines Submitted manuscripts must be written in English and must not exceed 30 pages in Springer LNCS format.

ICNP 2022 will be held in Lexington, KY, USA from October 30 to November 2, 2022. Scope The conference is soliciting paper submissions with significant research contributions to the field of network protocol research. Both experimental studies as well as formal investigations are equally welcome. Topics traditionally of interest include, but are not limited to: * All aspects of network protocol research including design, specification, verification, implementation, measurement, testing, and analysis. * Protocols for cellular networks, data center networks, Internet of Things, sensor networks, social networks, software-defined networks, vehicular networks, wide area networks, and wireless networks. * Domain-specific solutions, including protocols for network security, routing, user privacy, and network management. * Network protocols meet AI/ML, e.g., application of AI/Machine Learning to improve network protocols and operations; networking and protocols for improving the performance of AI/Machine Learning systems. * Contributions to network architecture, e.g., algorithms and protocols for network virtualization or future Internet architectures. * Contributions to other areas of data communications to the extent that they articulate a strong connection to network protocols, for example by discussing potential implications on the design or performance of certain types of network protocols (e.g., those for supporting large-scale networked scientific computation applications). Authors who are unsure whether or not their submissions might fit the scope of the conference are welcome to contact the Program Committee Co-Chairs. Paper Formatting Paper submissions should adhere to the IEEE Conference formatting requirements using the templates available here<https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html>, and should not exceed 10 pages excluding references. It is the authors' responsibility to produce readable submissions that comply with the formatting constraints. Violating the formatting requirements to squeeze in additional materials will result in a submission being returned without being reviewed. Submission and Anonymity Policy Papers submitted to the conference will be reviewed through a double-blind review process, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers (and that of the reviewers from the authors). Achieving this goal requires some care to, on the one hand, preserve the anonymity of your submission, and on the other hand ensuring proper coverage of related past work, including your own. While this requirement may seem challenging, the few basic steps listed below will go a long way towards achieving the desired outcome: Remove all authors' identifiers, e.g., names, emails, and affiliations, from the title page. Remove acknowledgments of and identifiers of funding sources. Use anonymous names for your files, as source file names are often embedded in the final output you generate, and therefore accessible as comments. When referring to your own related work, refer to it in the third person as you would with any other related work by another author. Besides anonymizing your submission, double-blind reviewing also imposes additional requirements on both authors and reviewers. Specifically, while it is permissible for authors to give local talks on their work and release their paper on a non-peer-reviewed location, e.g., an institutional repository or even arXiv, care should be exercised to limit public exposure as much as possible. This requirement includes refraining from advertising the work on mailing lists and public forums, and in general limiting as much as possible the odds that program committee members be exposed to the work and the authors' identity. Conversely, program committee members will be advised to neither actively seek to "reverse engineer" the acquired. All questions authors' identity, nor to directly share with other program committee members any such information they may have regarding possible breaches of the anonymity covenant that underlies the double-blind review process will be adjudicated by the Program Committee Co-Chairs. All papers will be provisionally accepted and the final acceptance of any paper may be subject to shepherding by a member of the program committee. Submission and Plagiarism Policy Papers must present original contributions and can neither be previously published nor under review by another conference or journal. Papers containing plagiarized materials will be subject to the IEEE plagiarism policy and possible penalties and will be rejected without being reviewed. Best Paper Award and Fast-Track Journal Publication One of the accepted papers will be selected for the Best Paper award, and will be fast tracked to the IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking, with a streamlined journal review process. Presentation and Registration Requirements IEEE ICNP requires that at least one of the authors of any accepted paper must register for the conference at the full rate and be available to present the paper at the conference. While we anticipate ICNP 2022 will be held physically in-person in Lexington, KY, USA, in the unlikely event that the conference is held virtually or partially virtually due to health considerations, we will accommodate requests by authors to present papers remotely, without physical attendance, and subsequently to include the paper in the conference proceedings and in IEEE Xplore. However, any paper that is not presented by an author of the paper, either in-person or remotely, will be withdrawn from the proceedings and thus from IEEE Xplore. At least one author from each accepted paper will be expected to register at the full rate whether presenting remotely or in person.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP - IEEE TII] Special Section on Digital Twin for Industrial Internet of Things, IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics Datum: Mon, 7 Feb 2022 06:56:58 +0100 Von: alcaraz <alcaraz(a)LCC.UMA.ES> Antwort an: alcaraz <alcaraz(a)LCC.UMA.ES> An: tccc-announce(a)comsoc.org *** CALL FOR PAPERS *** [Apologies for cross-posting] * IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics * * Special Section on Digital Twin for Industrial Internet of Things * Dear Colleagues, I would like to invite you to submit your latest research results to our Special Section on Digital Twin for Industrial Internet of Things at IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics. Link: http://www.ieee-ies.org/images/files/tii/ss/2022/Digital_Twin_for_Industria… Industrial IoT can revolutionize industrial operation by interconnecting numerous machines, analytics sectors, and people at work. Through a deep cooperation of these components, industrial IoT brings new business opportunities and incredible productivity to applications such as smart robotics, future factories, and automotive manufacturing. The success of industrial IoT relies on the dynamic perception and intelligent decision-making, which is difficult to conceive due to the heterogeneous industrial devices, the complex industrial environment, and the sophisticated business operation strategy. Digital twin, as an emerging digitalization technology, provides a feasible solution to capture the complex industrial environment and make predictive strategies. It builds a virtual representation of industrial entities and manufacturing process, updated with the physical entities at a specified fidelity and frequency. For example, for industrial manufacturers, digital twins can create digital models of substantial machines, to help us make holistic understanding of how these machines work, make possible modification or predictive maintenance, and take effective actions before devoting much resources and expenditure. The integration of digital twins and the industrial IoT enables a digital revolution of industrial automation. Researchers from industry and academia have focused on the virtualization and digitalization of industrial objects, while there are yet a number of challenges like high-fidelity modularity of digital twins, synchronization between digital and physical objects, interaction and networking among digital twins, scalable and resilient design of digital twin for industrial IoT. To fill the gap, this special section solicits high quality and unpublished work on recent advances in Digital Twins for Industrial IoT. - New computing architecture for digital twin in industrial IoT - New communication mechanisms for digital twin in industrial IoT - New scalable and resilient digital twin for industrial IoT - Advanced AI/ML models for digital twins in industrial IoT - Advanced data mapping-communication-computation architecture for digital twins empowered industrial IoT - Advanced softwarization and virtualization technologies for digital twin in industrial IoT - Advanced networking among digital twins for industrial IoT - Fault tolerance for digital twin in industrial IoT - Cross layer design for digital twin in industrial IoT - QoS/QoE improvement for digital twins empowered industrial IoT - Performance analysis of digital twins for industrial IoT - Resource allocation/management for digital twins empowered industrial IoT - Applications and testbeds of digital twin for industrial IoT Timeline: Manuscript Submission: May 30, 2022 Expected Publication Date: October 2022 Guest Editors: • Prof. Yan Zhang, University of Oslo, Norway, yanzhang(a)ieee.org • Prof. Wen Sun, Northwestern Polytechnical University, China, sunwen(a)nwpu.edu.cn • Prof. Cristina Alcaraz, University of Malaga, Spain, alcaraz(a)uma.e Manuscript Preparation and Submission: Follow the guidelines in “Information for Authors” in the IEEE Transaction on Industrial Informatics http://www.ieee-ies.org/pubs/transactions-on-industrial-informatics.

Fwd: CPS-IoTBench 2022: [EXTENDED] Call for Papers and for Reproducibility Studies
by Lars Wolf 01 Feb '22

01 Feb '22

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: CPS-IoTBench 2022: [EXTENDED] Call for Papers and for Reproducibility Studies Datum: Tue, 1 Feb 2022 17:24:59 +0400 Von: Michael Baddeley <michael(a)ssrc.tii.ae> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The 5th Workshop on Benchmarking Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet of Things (CPS-IoTBench 2022) -- https://www.iotbench.ethz.ch/cps-iotbench-2022 <https://www.iotbench.ethz.ch/cps-iotbench-2022> Hybrid event co-located with CPS-IoT Week -- May 3, 2022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Research on Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and the Internet of Things (IoT) has bloomed over the last decade. This research has led to the development of smart systems at different scales and environments, from smart homes and cities to smart grids and factories. Significant progress has been made through contributions in areas as diverse as control, embedded and real-time systems, wireless communication, and networking. Despite these advances, a lack of standard evaluation criteria and methodologies makes it difficult to measure and compare the utility of this progress. This problem concerns the evaluation against the state of the art in an individual area, the comparability of different integrated designs that span multiple areas (e.g., control and networking), and the applicability of tested scenarios to present and future real-world CPS/IoT applications and deployments. This state of affairs is alarming, as it significantly hinders further progress in CPS and IoT research. The Workshop on Benchmarking Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet of Things (CPS-IoTBench) has been a forum to bring together researchers from different communities since 2018, to engage in a lively debate on all facets of rigorously evaluating and comparing CPS and IoT solutions. This year, we will have a special session on the benchmarking and reproducibility of AI and machine learning techniques in CPS and IoT systems. CPS-IoTBench provides a venue for learning about each other’s challenges and evaluation methodologies and for debating future research agendas to jointly define the performance metrics and benchmarking scenarios that matter from an overall system perspective. *** Call for Papers and for Reproducibility Studies *** For the workshop's 5th edition, which will take place in a virtual form within CPS-IoT Week, we invite researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to submit papers that focus on one of the following: - Presenting exemplary benchmarking systems and approaches from any of the relevant communities (e.g., embedded systems, real-time systems, networking, wireless communication and control, robotics, machine learning). - Exposing key issues (or support current practice!) on the application and reproducibility of AI and machine learning techniques in CPS and IoT systems. - Identifying fundamental challenges and open questions in rigorous benchmarking and evaluation of CPS and IoT solutions. - Offering a constructive critique on the current practices and state of experimental comparisons. - Designing and evaluating benchmarking methodologies, infrastructures, or tools for cyber-physical and IoT systems. - Benchmarking industrial standardized solutions against each other and against academic solutions. - Presenting novel performance comparisons in the context of cyber-physical and IoT systems. - Reporting on success stories or failures when using standard evaluation criteria. - Describing techniques for improving the reproducibility of real-world testing of wireless systems. - Proposing new research directions, methodologies, or tools to increase the level of reproducibility and comparability of evaluation results. Well-reasoned arguments or preliminary evaluations are sufficient to support a paper’s claims. Unique to this year's workshop edition, we also seek contributions describing the reproduction of experimental results from published work within any of the relevant communities. Examples of this include: - Papers that repeat prior experiments (ideally using the original source code) to show how, why, and when the methods work (or not). - Papers that repeat prior experiments in new contexts (e.g., different application domains or using different evaluation methodologies and metrics) to further generalize and validate (or not) previous work. - Reproducibility studies of a given scientific work for which some key aspect(s) in the experimental setup was unspecified, showing the different spectrum of solutions as a function of such aspect(s). - Evaluations carried out by undergraduate and graduate students, experienced researchers, or industry practitioners looking to validate another piece of work before comparing their own to it. Reports should carefully describe the experimental setup as well as how the authors made sure to carefully reproduce conditions similar to those of the original study. If there are ambiguous conditions not specified in the original study which may affect the outcome (e.g. it is not specified whether the environment is an empty room or full of people), authors are encouraged to highlight, discuss, and empirically explore the impact of changing such a condition. Regardless of the study results, the tone of the report must be constructive and not offensive to the original authors. Prospective authors are invited to contact the original authors of the examined study and let them provide a short discussion paragraph that can be included in the final section within the report. Submissions from the same authors of the reproduced experiments will not be accepted. *** Submission Instructions *** Submitted papers must contain at most 6 pages (US letter, 9pt font size, double-column format, following the IEEE conference proceedings 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://cps-iotbench2022.hotcrp.com/ <https://cps-iotbench2022.hotcrp.com/>. Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE as part of the CPS-IoT Week 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: (extended) February 10, 2022 (1159 AoE) Notification of acceptance: February 25, 2022 Camera-ready: March 7, 2022 Workshop date: May 3, 2022 *** Workshop Organizers *** - Michael Baddeley (Technology Innovation Institute, UAE) - Michael Breza (Imperial College London, United Kingdom) - Romain Jacob (ETH Zurich, Switzerland) - Ramona Marfievici (Digital Catapult, United Kingdom) - Pat Pannuto (University of California, San Diego, USA) - Olga Saukh (Graz University of Technology, Austria) - Ambuj Varshney (University of California Berkeley, USA) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of the call ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- TII logo.png *Dr. Michael Baddeley* Lead Researcher Secure Systems Research Centre P.O.

In such environment, attributing the power consumed by the hardware to specific VEs becomes much more difficult than in networking architectures where the same functionalities are performed by dedicated equipment (e.g., routers or L2 switches). The strong integration between the mobile and fixed network segment, already present in 5G and further strengthened in 6G is going to increase the volume of traffic and applications’ heterogeneity, along with the number of users, making network energy efficiency a full-fledged Key Performance Indicator (KPI) to be coped with. The aim of the Workshop is to explore some of the issues that this evolution poses on finding suitable traffic and power models, as well as management and control strategies, along with Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to be used for the lifecycle management and optimization of Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) and the creation and dynamic reconfiguration of network slices, to match as closely as possible the desired balance between sustainability in terms of energy efficiency and performance. We solicit original papers on the following (and related) topics Analytical models of network power consumption Traffic modelling for performance and power representation Management and control mechanisms for the dynamic optimization of the trade-off between power and performance AI/ML techniques for power and performance management in virtualized environments AI/ML in network softwarization for slicing energy efficiency, fog/cloud MEC virtualization, self-x technologies, adaptation, automation, and zero-touch APIs for power management interfaces Architectural solutions toward network sustainability Power-aware network slicing Wired and wireless energy efficiency Energy-saving internet protocols Energy efficiency in the fog/MEC/cloud continuum Energy efficient internetworking of mobile backhaul/core and remote data centers Energy efficient 3D networks Authors are invited to submit original contributions (written in English) in PDF format.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] Special Issue: Collaborative Sensing, Mapping and Driving, IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology Datum: Mon, 24 Jan 2022 18:07:17 -0800 Von: Hongsheng Lu <hlu(a)US.TOYOTA-ITC.COM> Antwort an: Hongsheng Lu <hlu(a)US.TOYOTA-ITC.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear All, We sincerely invite you to submit work to IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology special issue on Collaborative Sensing, Mapping and Driving. Manuscript submission: 1 March 2022 First review notifications: 15 April 2022 Revised manuscript due: 15 May 2022 Final editorial decisions: 1 June 2022 Final manuscript due: 15 June 2022 Publication date: 3rd Quarter 2022 Call for Papers: *Scope* Connected vehicles and automated vehicles represent different approaches to improve vehicle safety on the road. The former leverages wireless communication technologies to enhance mutual awareness among traffic participants. The latter ramps up individual vehicles’ capability of perception and control to achieve better decision making in the complex driving environment. On the surface, the two technologies seem complementary. Information shared by different traffic entities can be added to a vehicle’s dynamic map, extending its perception horizon, and uncovering None-Line-Of-Sight situations which otherwise would not be available via its own onboard sensors. In return, the vehicle can send what it observes through onboard sensors, which might help recipients avoid previously unaware safety hazard. Furthermore, as reported in the state-of-art research, individual vehicles may navigate themselves more efficiently with global information gathered from others on the same road, generating improved driving safety and efficiency. However, the aforementioned complementary natures of vehicle connectivity and automation do not assure the completed integration of these technologies into vehicles and their interactions. There are questions about the cost, benefits, timeline, performance, hardware/software requirement and interface design of such an integrated system. Many of these questions are nontrivial to answer as it needs joint efforts from numerous technology areas. Fortunately, many scholars and research groups have started to explore these questions, paving the road for a cohesive integration of vehicle connectivity with vehicle automation system. This special issue focuses on the most recent advancements in modeling, wireless communications, vehicle perception, mapping and localization technologies, which can improve the collaboration among individual automated, human-driven, or autonomous vehicles and enable novel vehicular cooperative applications. The goal is to bring together state-of-art efforts in this interdisciplinary domain that analyzes and addresses the challenges in enabling *C*ollaborative *S*ensing, *M*apping and *D*riving (CSMD). *Topics of Interests* 1) V2X (e.g., DSRC, LTE V2X, 5G NR V2X), V2N and V2C protocol design, optimization, testing and evaluation for CSMD 2) Standards related to CSMD, including V2X, V2N and V2C communication, semantics & ontologies, and IoT. 3) Wireless infrastructure (e.g, Edge Computing) development for CSMD 4) Innovative incentives for fair, safe & secure collaborative strategies for CSMD 5) Infrastructure development 6) Data-driven and AI-enabled mechanisms for CSMD 7) CSMD modeling, simulation/validation platform & data sets 8) CSMD oriented use cases development, including report on international and trans-border initiatives for CSMD. 9) High-fidelity connected vehicle collaboration in perception, localization/mapping, tele-monitoring/operation and driving assistance 10) Real-time collaborative ADAS system modeling and implementation 11) Field deployment of CSMD 12) V2X, V2N and V2C enabled collaborative mobility services *Manuscript Submission Guidelines* Manuscripts must follow the author instructions available at: https://vtsociety.org/ojvt-author-instructions/.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Deadline approaching: IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics -- Special Section on Cyber-Physical Threats and Solutions for Autonomous Transportation Systems
by Lars Wolf 21 Jan '22

21 Jan '22

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Alessandro Brighente <brighent(a)DEI.UNIPD.IT> Gesendet: 21. Januar 2022 10:57:53 MEZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Deadline approaching: IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics -- Special Section on Cyber-Physical Threats and Solutions for Autonomous Transportation Systems (Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message) *Call for papers: IEEE Transactions on Industrial Informatics* *Special Section on Cyber-Physical Threats and Solutions for Autonomous Transportation Systems* Theme: The rapid evolution of technology has radically changed our everyday lives from multiple points of view. Among the others, transportation systems are nowadays populated by smart and interconnected vehicles that need to communicate with each other and with critical infrastructures to orchestrate traffic and mobility. Transportation systems are hence operated through multiple technologies that need to cooperate to provide efficient delivery of goods and human mobility, as well as to provide security in the overall networks. The latter task is complicated by the fact that vehicles autonomously drive and cooperate in the network without human intervention. The overall transportation network can be therefore represented by a cyber-physical system, where a large number of sensors, actuators, and multiple technologies are connected and exchange information. To guarantee the overall network security, attack detection and the design of suitable countermeasures play a fundamental role. The security of cyber-physical systems has been widely studied in literature. However, most of the proposed solutions target either the cyber or the physical threats, without providing a unified view able to detect and mitigate more complicated attacks. The purpose of this special issue is therefore to collect the latest research achievements in the cyber-physical threats and countermeasures in autonomous transportation systems. This special section will focus on (but not limited to) the following topics: - Methods for detection of cyber-physical attacks in transportation systems - Design of countermeasures for cyber-physical attacks in transportation systems - Hardware solutions for mitigating the attacks on controller area networks of automotive - Protocol and semantics agnostic security solutions to automotive CPS - Formal modeling of cyber-physical attacks in transportation systems - Privacy preserving solutions for cyber-physical transportation systems - Cyber-physical threats in platoons/swarms - Scalability of the security solutions in autonomous transportation systems - Blockchain solutions against cyber-physical threats in autonomous transportation systems - Security testing of vulnerabilities in automotive CPS *Manuscript Preparation and Submission* Follow the guidelines in “Information for Authors” in the IEEE Transaction on Industrial Informatics http://www.ieeeies.org/pubs/transactions-on-industrial-informatics <https://apc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ieeeie…> . Please submit your manuscript in electronic form through ManuscriptCentral web site: https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tii <https://apc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmc.manusc…> . On the submitting page #1 in popup menu of manuscript type, select: SS on Cyber-Physical Threats and Solutions for Autonomous Transportation Systems Submissions to this Special Section must represent original material that has been neither submitted to, nor published in, any other journal.

Smartphones and IoT devices are widespread in our cities, creating a hyper-connected society. Groups of autonomous vehicles, even flying ones, can perform actions and provide services and applications in several application fields, such as environment, agriculture, disaster management and recovery, smart cities, smart transportation and entertainment. Intelligent vehicles provide new smart environments (cities, harbours, factories, offices, homes, etc.) with the additional features given by their actuation capabilities, which aim at improving, at the same time, the performance of a specific mission as well as the performance of the underlying communication network. The three different contexts: land, water and sky, as well as the integrated contexts, have already gained momentum showing the opportunities to provide benefits to our whole society. However, to fully exploit this potential, we first have to address numerous research issues, to design and develop reliable, green, affordable and efficient networking and applications. This track focuses on the open research challenges and their practical solutions, as well as on the standardization activities and the applications and products already existing.

High mobility results in rapidly time-varying channels, which pose significant challenges in the design of practical systems, including channel modeling, fast handover, location management, synchronization, estimation and equalization, anti-Doppler spread techniques, coding and network capacity, capacity-approaching techniques, dedicated network architectures, distributed antenna techniques etc. In addition, with the development of vehicular networks, more rigorous performance requirements (e.g., ultra-low latency and ultra-high reliability) are also required for advanced driving applications such as platooning, full automated driving, collective perception of environment and so on, which makes the research and development of wireless systems more challenging. Accordingly, the 11th international workshop on High Mobility Wireless Communications (HMWC) aims at fostering fruitful interactions among interested communication engineers, information theorists and system designers from all over the world, building successful collaborations and bridging the gap between theory and practice. Its topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Theoretical performance (e.g., data rate, delay, reliability, etc.) limits for HMWC systems Rapidly time-varying channel modeling, estimation and equalization Fast synchronization Doppler shift estimation & compensation Doppler diversity and anti-Doppler techniques Efficient modulation and detection techniques employed in high speed vehicles Fast power control Fast handover and group handover Fast location update Highly dynamic radio resource optimization Coding and network capacity for HMWC systems Interference utilization and capacity approaching techniques Multiple access schemes and ultra-low latency protocols for HMWC systems Ultra-high reliability routing protocols for HMWC systems Relay, distributive multi-antenna and cooperative techniques for HMWC systems High-speed vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) radio systems Communication, Caching and Computation convergence for HMWC systems Ultra-reliable and low-latency network architectures for high speed environments 5G-based solutions for HMWC systems Machine learning for HMWC systems Big data based analysis and optimization for HMWC systems Channel measurement based performance evaluation Technical Program Committee: Giuseppe Araniti, University Mediterranea of Reggio Calabria, Italy Baoming Bai, Xidian University, China Wen Chen, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China Massimo Condoluci, Ericsson Research, Sweden Benot Denis, CEA, France Pingyi Fan, Tsinghua University, China Shibo He, Zhejiang University, China Jinling Hu, China Information Communication Technologies Group Corporation (CICT), China, Adlen Ksentini, EURECOM, France Chengchao Liang, Carleton University, Canada Hongbin Liang, Southwest Jiaotong University, China Gang Liu, Southwest Jiaotong University, China Xiao Ma, Sun Yatsun University, China Zhijin Qin, Queen Mary University of London (QMUL), UK Christian Schneider, TU Ilmenau, Germany Yan Shi, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, China Daxin Tian, Beihang University, China Wei Wang, Zhejiang University, C! hina Henk Wymeersch, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden Bo Yang, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China Lei Yang, The University of Nevada, Reno, USA Zhaoyang Zhang, Zhejiang University, China Zhengquan Zhang, Southwest Jiaotong University, China Kan Zheng, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, China Important Dates: Workshop paper submission: 22 February 2022 Acceptance notification: 17 April 2022 Final paper submission: 1 May 2022 Paper Submission： All manuscripts should be converted to PDF format and uploaded to the Trackchair system before submission deadline via: https://vtc2022s-rr-wks.trackchair.com/track/2049.

Spaceborne (i.e., GEO, MEO, and LEO satellites) or airborne (i.e., Unmanned Aircraft Systems or UASs and High Altitude Platforms or HAPs) vehicles constituting the NTN may act either as a relay node or as a base station and can be leveraged to complement TNs. Compared to terrestrial wireless networks, NTNs have many distinctive features, such as specific channel models, highly dynamic network topologies, and weakly connected communication links. As a consequence, solutions tailored to terrestrial networks cannot be directly applied to NTNs. Hence, new techniques suitable for NTNs need to be developed. Furthermore, various satellite systems on different orbits remain isolated ‘islands’, and they are also disconnected from the ground networks. Therefore, integrating all existing networks in air, space, and on ground into a unified system will be essential for 6G. The purpose of the NTN-6G Workshop is to provide a platform for the discussion of the major research challenges, latest developments and recent advances in Non-Terrestrial Networks in 6G Wireless Networks. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following: - Smart Radio Resource Management Techniques for Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Integration of Terrestrial and Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Broadcast/Multicast services over Non-Terrestrial Networks; - SDN and NFV solutions for Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Device and network virtualization in Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Edge, Fog, and Cloud computing architectures for Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Security, privacy, and trust management in Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Artificial intelligence and Machine Learning-based approaches in Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Above 6 GHz: millimeter-wave, Terahertz-band, optical wireless communication for Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Interference issues in Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Channel models for Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Multi-antennas technologies for Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Network Management & Control Issues for Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Standardization and evolution of Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Novel IoT application and use-cases enabled by Non-Terrestrial Networks; - Experimental testbeds and measurements of Non-Terrestrial Networks. ****************************************************************************************************************** IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission deadline: March 1, 2022 Author Notification: April 10, 2022 Camera-ready submission: April 21, 2022 Workshop date: June 14, 2022 ****************************************************************************************************************** MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION INFORMATION Submissions may be up to 6 pages in length (including figures and references), formatted in two-column IEEE conference style with font size 10 point or greater.

In the past decade, the research community have produced proven solutions to build low-power mesh networks. Traditionally, the focus has been on short-range radio communication (e.g., ZigBee, Bluetooth, and ZWave). An appealing alternative that have gained momentum in the IoT landscape, is to equip the nodes with long-range low power radio modules. As a result, long-range radio communication technologies (e.g., SigFox, LoRa, NB-IoT, and 802.15.4g) are considered as candidate technologies for many low power wide area network (LPWAN) applications, especially those that require extended coverage such as citywide sensing, environmental monitoring, or remote infrastructure monitoring. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the field of IoT from both academia and industry, to discuss and explore short- and long-range solutions, the tradeoffs between these two paradigms, as well as how they can be used in synergy. In order to push the state of the art, several points need to be addressed: new features for the long-range technologies (i.e., over-the-air updates, roaming), radio resource management, regulations and policies on spectrum usage and sharing, business case analysis that are more well suited for certain vertical markets. *** Call for Papers *** The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - protocol design - hardware platform design - modeling and analysis of low-power short or/and long-range communication - reliability, adaptability, and dependability of short and long-range communication solutions - new features for the long-range technologies (i.e., over-the-air updates, roaming) - wake-up radios for short- or/and long-range technologies - radio resource management - satellite IoT solutions - applications domains (e.g., smart cities, smart health, smart buildings, smart transportation) - anomaly detection - security solutions - deployment experiences, case studies, and lessons learned - evaluation and testbeds - regulations and policies on spectrum usage and sharing - business case analysis that are more well suited for certain vertical markets. *** Submission Instructions *** Submitted papers must contain between 4 and 6 single spaced U.S. letter pages, including all figures, tables, and references. All submissions must be written in English. Submissions should be formatted using the standard IEEE template for Microsoft Word or LaTeX. The submission Website is available at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=newnets2022. Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE as part of the CPS-IoT Week 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: February 7, 2022 (AoE) Notification of acceptance: February 28, 2022 Camera-ready: March 7, 2022 Workshop date: May 3, 2022 *** Workshop Organizers *** - Anca Hangan, (Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania) - Oana Iova (INSA, Lyon, France) - Ramona Marfievici (Digital Catapult,UK) ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
