Mai 2019 04:23:43 MESZ An: tciin(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: HiPNet 2019 – Submission deadline July 15, 2019 ======================= Call for Papers ======================= 2nd International Workshop on HIGH-PRECISION NETWORKS OPERATIONS AND CONTROL (HIPNET 2019) 25 October 2019, Halifax, Canada http://www.cnsm-conf.org/2019/hipnet2019.html Co-located with the 15th International Conference on Network and Service Management (CNSM) =============================================================== --- SCOPE --- New waves of networked applications continue to push the limits of what is possible with networks today. Augmented Reality and Tactile Internet require ultra-low latency measured in single- digit milliseconds. Requirements of Industrial Internet appli- cations that involve real-time industrial control are even more stringent and tolerate no jitter at all. Compounding this situation is the fact that many of those applications are mission-critical and cannot afford any loss in connectivity or even single p ackets. Collectively, these applications require High-Precision Networks that are characterized by stringent service level boundaries and associated guarantees that border on determinism. This requires a rethinking of many of the principles underlying existing "Best Effort" internetworking technology. Several approaches trying to tackle those challenges are emerging. Data centers with fixed topologies and a constant number of hops rapidly replace conventional routing and more general Internet topologies. Networks are becoming more programmable to allow to custom-tailor and optimize treatment of packets and flows. Related technologies range from Service Function Chaining to Network Slicing to SDN. One overarching question concerns how these technologies can be harnessed and what additional approaches are needed to be able to actually deliver High-Precision Networking. This will involve advances over a wide range of areas, such as programming and processing of packets in the data plane, high-precision measurements and telemetry with nanosecond accuracy at scale, control interfaces and ultra-low latency control loops to optimize service levels, as well as advances in the related platforms and algorithms that allow for their management and control. The workshop aims to provide a forum for researchers, students and professionals from industry and academia to discuss challenges and present work-in-progress and solution approaches to deliver on High-Precision Networks and their management and control. --- TOPICS OF INTEREST --- Topics of Interest to the workshop include but are not limited to the following: - Platforms to manage and operate high-precision networks and services, e.g., Industrial Networks, Tactile Networks, Virtual/Augmented Reality (VR/AR) - Proof/validation of high-precision service level guarantees - High-precision measurement techniques for ultra-low latency and jitter - Service assurance for micro services and service function chains - Applications for Inband Network Telemetry and iOAM - High-precision networking using service function chaining - In-network service level tuning and optimization - Novel network programming models with applications in high- precision Networking - Applications of Artificial Intelligence for high-precision networking - Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) interconnect, wide-area TSN, IP and TSN convergence - SDN applications for high-precision and high-performance networking - High-precision networking over 5G - High-Precision networking services using Fog and Edge Computing - Deployment/operational experiences with Industrial Internet, Tactile Internet, networked AR --- SUBMISSION OF PAPERS --- Authors are invited to submit original unpublished papers that are not already under review elsewhere. Submissions will be subjected to a peer-review process. Papers should be prepared in IEEE 2-column format and must not exceed 6 pages. Short papers are accepted as well and must not exceed 4 pages.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Transactions on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies (ETT): Special Issue on Future Internet of Vehicles

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

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

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

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

Fwd: [Call for Papers] HotNets 2019: Eighteenth ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in Networks

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Call for Papers] HotNets 2019: Eighteenth ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in Networks Datum: Thu, 9 May 2019 09:43:13 -0400 Von: Anduo Wang <adw(a)temple.edu> Antwort an: adw(a)temple.edu An: SIGCOMM-MEMBERS(a)LISTSERV.ACM.ORG [on behalf of Rodrigo Fonseca and Sylvia Ratnasamy] HotNets 2019: Eighteenth ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in Networks November 13-15, 2019 — Princeton, New Jersey, USA See the official Call for Papers -- https://conferences.sigcomm.org/hotnets/2019/cfp.html-- for details The 18th ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in Networks (HotNets 2019) will bring together researchers in computer networks and systems to engage in a lively debate on the theory and practice of computer networking. HotNets provides a venue for discussing innovative ideas and for debating future research agendas in networking. We invite researchers and practitioners to submit short position papers. We encourage papers that identify fundamental open questions, advocate a new approach, offer a constructive critique of the state of networking research, re-frame or debunk existing work, report unexpected early results from a deployment, report on promising but unproven ideas, or propose new evaluation methods. Novel ideas need not be supported by full evaluations; well-reasoned arguments or preliminary evaluations can support the possibility of the paper’s claims. We seek early-stage work, where the authors can benefit from community feedback. An ideal submission has the potential to open a line of inquiry for the community that results in multiple conference papers in related venues (SIGCOMM, SOSP, OSDI, NSDI, MobiCom, MobiSys, CoNEXT, etc.), rather than a single follow-on conference paper. The program committee will explicitly favor early work and papers likely to stimulate reflection and discussion over “conference papers in miniature”. Finished work that fits in a short paper is likely a better fit with the short-paper tracks at either CoNEXT or IMC, for example. HotNets takes a broad view of networking research. This includes new ideas relating to (but not limited to) mobile, wide-area, data-center, home, and enterprise networks using a variety of link technologies (wired, wireless, visual, and acoustic), as well as social networks and network architecture. It encompasses all aspects of networks, including (but not limited to) packet-processing hardware and software, virtualization, mobility, provisioning and resource management, performance, energy consumption, topology, robustness and security, measurement, diagnosis, verification, privacy, economics and evolution, interactions with applications, and usability of underlying networking technologies. Position papers will be selected based on originality, likelihood of stimulating insightful discussion at the workshop, and technical merit. Accepted papers will be posted online prior to the workshop and will be published in the ACM Digital Library to facilitate wide dissemination of the ideas discussed at the workshop. Important Dates Abstract registration deadline: June 24, 2019 (7:59pm EST) Paper submission deadline: June 28, 2019 (7:59pm EST) Acceptance/rejection notification to authors: September 17, 2019 Reviews to authors: September 24, 2019 Camera-ready submission deadline: coming soon Workshop: November 13-15, 2019 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ You can unsubscribe for this list at any time through this link: Unsubscribe <https://optout.acm.org/unsubscribe.cfm?rl=SIGCOMM-MEMBERS&RE=WOLF@IBR.CS.TU…>

Highlights of the conference will include a high quality single-track technical program, invited speakers, an industrial track, panel discussions involving academic and industry leaders, poster and demonstration presentations, a doctoral symposium, tutorials and workshops. Original submissions of research papers on a diversity of topics are sought, particularly those identifying new research directions. The topics of the conference include, but are not limited to: * Cloud and data centers * Virtualization, auto-scaling, provisioning, and scheduling * Data-intensive computing (big data) and data analytics * Stream Processing * Machine learning * Mobile and pervasive systems and services * Internet-of-Things, smart cities * Fog, Edge computing * Cyber-physical and Real-time systems * Energy and power-aware techniques * Event-based, publish/subscribe, and peer-to-peer solutions * Networking, network function virtualization, software-defined networking * Multimedia Systems * Fault tolerance and Consistency * Blockchains * Security and privacy * Monitoring, resource management and analysis * Middleware Design principles * Programming abstractions and paradigms for middleware * Reconfigurable, adaptable, and reflective approaches * Reviews of middleware paradigms, e.g., object models, aspect orientation, etc. * Methodologies and tools for design, implementation, verification, and evaluation Original papers of three types are sought: * Research Papers: These papers report original research on the above topics, and will be evaluated on significance of the problem, novelty of the solution, advancement beyond prior work, sufficient supporting evidence and clarity of the presentation. * Experimentation and Deployment Papers: These papers describe complete systems, platforms, and/or comprehensive experimental evaluations of alternative designs and solutions to well-known problems. The emphasis during the evaluation of these papers will be less on the novelty and more on the demonstrated usefulness and potential impact of the contributions, the extensive experimentation involved, and the quality and weight of the lessons learned. * Big Ideas Papers: These are papers that have the potential for opening up new research directions. For such papers, the potential to motivate new research is more important than full experimental evaluation, though some preliminary evidence of the effectiveness of the approach or idea is important. Confirmed keynote speakers: Brian Cooper - Google Monica Lam - Stanford University Ion Stoica - Berkeley Submission Guidelines Submitted papers must have at most 12 pages of technical content, including text, figures, and appendices, but excluding any number of additional pages for bibliographic references. Note that submissions must be double-blind: authors' names must not appear, and authors must make a good faith attempt to anonymize their submissions. Submitted papers must adhere to the formatting instructions of the ACM SIGPLAN style, which can found on the ACM template page. Please note that it is preferable, although not mandatory, to use a 10pt font instead of 9pt one. The Middleware 2019 conference proceedings will be published in the ACM Digital Library.

The competition is aimed at bringing together the academic and industrial research communities for evaluating different approaches and envisioning new research opportunities for the indoor localization area, where no generally accepted standards exist yet. IPIN 2019 Indoor Localization Competition will consist of several tracks, including on-site and off-site contests. Results will be presented during dedicated sessions of the IPIN conference and prizes will be awarded to the winners. The competition builds on the experience of previous competitions and is based on the EvAAL framework, ensuring experience, solidity and a well-founded scientific method. In 2019 the competition hosts five different tracks: Track 1: Smartphone-based Track 2: Video-based Track 3: Smartphone-based (off-site) Track 4: Foot-mounted IMU based (off-site) Track 5: xDR in industrial scenarios (off-site) The winner of each track will be awarded a prize of 1500 €. ON-SITE TRACKS The competition will take place in the CNR Area of Pisa (IT). An actor carries the competing system by walking in and between multi-floor buildings. Position estimates are provided in real time. Data processing is local, without using any external aid. Survey of the area and system calibration is restricted to a single day. Track 1 - Smartphone-based: The actor carries a smartphone which runs the competing system, using the sensors available on the smartphones to identify the user's position. Track 2 - Video based: The actor carries video equipment on the upper part of the body (no Depth, no Lidar), processing is done using smartphone, tablet or laptop carried by the actor. OFF-SITE TRACKS Competitors calibrate their algorithms in advance using a ground truth reference database, and compete using new unreferenced data. Track 3 - Smartphone based: A pedestrian walking under realistic conditions in multi-floor buildings using data provided by a conventional smartphone. Track 4 - Foot-mounted IMU-based: A pedestrian carries PERSY (PEdestrian Reference SYstem) a state-of-the-art Inertial Navigation System producing IMU data, MAG data & GNSS data. Maps are not provided. Track 5 - xDR in industrial scenarios: Practical performance of xDR methods in industrial scenarios: sensor data are measured in actual operations in a restaurant and a factory by Android devices. Technical competition details The evaluation criteria for the competition, restrictions on the accepted technologies, technical rules to follow and a description of the benchmarks are detailed in the technical annexes to this call. Announcements and possible refinements of the annexes, also based on candidate competitors' comments, will be timely distributed on the competition discussion mailing list contest(a)evaal.aaloa.org and will appear on the IPIN web site. All the data gathered by the competition committee during the competition, including data produced by competing systems, will be published after the competition for the purpose of research and comparison. Winners of the competition will be announced during the conference. COMPETITOR ADMISSION PROCESS A competitor can be any individual or group of individuals working as a single team, associated to a single or a number of organizations, who wants to participate in one or several tracks. Only one team from the same organisation (laboratory) is allowed to compete. Competitors apply for admission to the competition tracks by providing a short (2 to 4 pages) technical description of their localization system (in PDF, using this template), which includes a description of the algorithms and protocols used. The technical description must be sent by e-mail to the chairs of the intended track, which is indicated in the relative annex. Track chairs will accept or refuse the application in a short time, based on technical feasibility and logistic constraints. After acceptance of the competitor's technical description, one member of the competing team is required to register to the IPIN conference, specifying that the registration is linked to a competition track. Full registration to the conference covers participation in the competition process (allotted time, support and space) and the submission of one paper describing the system. Note: subscriptions related to competion allow for a single paper to be submitted, rather than the two papers mentioned in the instructions for authors. Competitors who are authors of an accepted paper will be allowed some time after the conference for updating it before publication. Competitors wish to test their system, but do not want to be included in the public rankings and compared with other competitors, may ask for that special condition in advance to the chairs of the relevant track, who can accept or refuse the application depending on their organisational constraints. Competitors wishing to test their on-site system which does not fit any of the on-site tracks may ask chairs of Track 1 to be admitted off-track, which will be granted depending on organisational contraints. Committees Subscribe to the contest mailing list to get updated on the competition: http://evaal.aaloa.org/mailman/listinfo/contest IMPORTANT DATES ---------------------------------------------------- Technical description: 15 July Notification of admission: 1 week after Result submission (off-site tracks): 14 September Survey and setup (on-site tracks): 28 September Competition (on-site tracks): 29 September ---------------------------------------------------- ORGANIZING COMMITTEE Competition chairs Francesco Potortì - ISTI-CNR (IT) Sangjoon Park - ETRI (KR) Track 1 Antonino Crivello - ISTI-CNR (IT) Filippo Palumbo - ISTI-CNR (IT) Track 2 Soyeon Lee - ETRI (KR) Track 3 Joaquín Torres-Sospedra - University Jaume I (ES) Track 4 Miguel Ortiz - GEOLOC Team, Ifsttar (FR) Track 5 Ryosuke Ichikari - AIST and University of Tsukuba (JP) Ryo Shimomura - AIST and University of Tsukuba (JP) Software Michele Girolami - ISTI-CNR (IT) -- IPIN'19 http://ipin2019.isti.cnr.it Voice: +39.050.621.3058 Francesco Potortì (ricercatore) Mobile: +39.348.8283.107 ISTI - Area della ricerca CNR Skype: wnlabisti via G.

Call for Papers The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is an ecosystem of connected sensors, wearable devices, medical devices, and clinical systems. It enables various healthcare applications to reduce healthcare costs, provide timely medical responses, and increase the quality of medical treatment. Driven largely by advances in wireless communications, sensor networks, mobile devices, big data analysis, and cloud computing, IoMT is transforming the healthcare industry by delivering targeted and personalized medicine and by enabling seamless communication of medical data. While these increasingly ubiquitous medical devices offer several benefits, they also raise serious security and privacy concerns. Healthcare systems collect and process sensitive and often life-critical medical information and make critical decisions based on this information. Cybercriminals targeting the vulnerabilities in these IoMT devices can not only gain potential entry into the hospital network but also obtain unauthorized access to sensitive personal and healthcare information. Attacks on these connected devices can also cause significant physical harm and life-threatening damage to the patients. The goal of this special issue is to highlight state-of-the-art security research in the field of IoMT. Contributions from both academia and industry describing novel security and privacy solutions that address the unique needs of healthcare systems are welcomed. Papers presenting lightweight security solutions for resource constrained medical devices are highly encouraged. Potential topics include but are not limited to the following: * Threats and attack models in IoMT * Security risk analysis in IoMT * Wearable and implantable medical device security * Lightweight security solutions in IoMT * Intrusion detection in IoMT * Machine learning based security in IoMT * Privacy-preserving technology in IoMT * Blockchain for healthcare security in IoMT * Authentication and access control in IoMT Authors can submit their manuscripts through the Manuscript Tracking System at https://mts.hindawi.com/submit/journals/scn/spimt/. Submission Deadline: Friday, 24 May 2019 Publication Date: October 2019 Papers are published upon acceptance, regardless of the Special Issue publication date.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can play an important role in smart agriculture by collecting environmental data. Their ability to carry different type of payloads such as sensors, high definition cameras, antennas, or even sprayers make it a great ally for agriculturalists. In large-scale applications, e.g., wide area farms, forests or even sea farms, a cluster or a network of UAVs is adopted by opening new paths of research and development in a field which is called Flying Ad hoc Network (FANET). FANETs incorporate UAVs and Internet of Things (IoT) as communicating entities for realizing more demanding and large-scale applications. There is no doubt that with the proper collaboration and coordination of multiple UAVs, in a form of FANET, the emerged system would exceed by far the capabilities of a single UAV system. Single UAV systems usually utilize heavier, larger and more expensive UAVs which in case of a fall could pose great danger to human life and property. Using a single UAV, the amount of coverage is limited, while with multi-UAVs the scalability of the operation can be easily extended. Moreover, a failure in singe UAV system means that the whole mission has failed, on the contrary, multiple UAVs can share tasks among themselves, thus the fault tolerant of the system increases significantly. Since the number of applications a single UAV can serve are proportionate to the systems that are installed on its board, it is quite clear that FANETs can server different application in parallel thus reducing significantly the execution time of a mission. It is quite obvious that FANETs can enhance smart farming management process significantly. Prerequisite for their deployment is a network that will guarantee the proper communication between UAVs in order to ensure their efficient collaboration and coordination. FANETs take on the communication among UAV nodes as well as the rest of the nodes (ground sensors, base stations and gateways). Although there are various advantages of FANETs, when compared to single-UAV systems, several challenges are emerged when implementing FANETs in smart farming systems such as the efficient communication and the coordination among the various flying UAVs and among the UAVs and the ground sensors, base stations and gateways. This Special Issue seeks to make an in-depth, critical contribution to this evolving field of FANET in conjunction with smart farming and smart agriculture applications and systems. In the context of this special issue, we intend to bring together the state-of-the-art research contributions towards providing new insights in the FANET applications and benefits of the emerging methods and technologies in the IoT-enabled agriculture sector. The topics that can be addressed include (but are not limited to) the following ones. =Topics= - Real deployments and case studies of FANETs in smart farming. - Regulations and recommendations for FANETs in smart farming applications. - Management of heterogeneous UAVs in FANETs. - Crop models and decision support systems in FANETSs. - Routing models and protocols of FANETs in smart agriculture. - Quality of Service (QoS) in FANET applications. - FANETs-based edge and Fog computing in smart farming. - Coordination of multiple UAVs in smart farming applications and systems. - Communication methods and protocols of FANET UAVs in agricultural domain. - Human-FANETs interaction for smart farming. - Farmers' acceptance and intention to use FANETs. - Big data in agricultural domain using UAVs. - Big data innovation in sustainable agriculture using UAVs. - Energy efficiency and management of FANETs in smart farming. - FANET-driven frameworks towards improving the resilience of farming systems. - FANET application in mixed farming systems. - Embedding sensors and actuators on UAVs for smart farming. - UAVs in precise farming in combination with the related climate change mitigation potential. - IoT tools and techniques for sustainable agriculture using UAVs. - Big data analysis tools and machine learning techniques in decision-making frameworks for FANETs. - Modern Geographic Information System (GIS) and remote sensing techniques in agriculture for FANETs. - Security issues regarding FANETs in smart farming. - Privacy issues regarding FANETs in smart farming. - Cloud-enabled techniques and in-the-field integration for sustainable agriculture using UAVs. - Schemes and algorithms that enable the participative design of mixed farming and agroforestry systems through UAVs or/and FANETs. - Cloud-enabled techniques and in-the-field integration for sustainable agriculture using UAVs. - FANET applications to increase synergies between crops and livestock. - Smart bandwidth utilization by FANETs in smart farming. - Models and tools adapted to real farm management to grasp the inherent complexity of mixed farming and agroforestry systems using UAVs. *Guest Editors* Panagiotis Sarigiannidis University of Western Macedonia, Greece Email: psarigiannidis(a)uowm.gr Anastasios A.

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