The aim is twofold. First, it should provide PhD students in any phase of their career with an opportunity to discuss their topics with experts and gain general feedback as well as specific comments on their proposal. Second, the PhD Forum is an excellent opportunity for young researchers to start a personal network with other PhD students as well as with already established experts. What can I expect? A full-day event of discussions and fun with your direct peers, and visibility at the main conference. The aim of the PhD Forum is to discuss research topics and PhD projects at different stages (early to senior). The PhD forum involves the discussion of meta aspects and experiences in course of a PhD. To tailor the discussion of meta aspects, we will request input from the participants in advance of the PhD Forum. In contrast to previous years, we will also have two keynote speakers who will report about their research journey from a PhD student to a leading expert. Dr. Johann Schlamp (Leitwert) will talk about building an Internet-scale measurement infrastructure and Dr. Heiko Will (Safety io) will talk about innovation and development of advanced solutions from a software perspective. In addition to the PhD Forum, a presentation of all participants will take place during a poster session at the main conference. A brief introduction of the topics (One-Minute-Madness) is used to attract attention of conference participants to this poster seesion. The PhD Forum is a special opportunity to discuss research plans and results face-to-face with professors and senior researchers in individual groups outside of the own lab. What should I submit? Prospective participants should prepare an application that includes the following information: - Research Statement: a two-page abstract (IEEE, at least 10pt font, 2-column format) that sketches the research proposal of the PhD student, the contribution to knowledge, and how the research will advance the state of the art. The research proposal will not appear in the official conference proceedings but is planned to be published on the conference web page. - Curriculum Vitae: a brief CV that lists the education and research interests of the PhD student. Please provide us with a single PDF document. Upload your application via https://phdforum.netsys2019.org. In addition, a poster has to be presented at the main conference in a special PhD poster session.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE INFOCOM 2019 Workshop on Ultra-Low Latency in Wireless Networks (ULLWN) Datum: Mon, 7 Jan 2019 14:02:42 +0000 Von: Nikolaos Pappas <nikolaos.pappas(a)LIU.SE> Antwort an: Nikolaos Pappas <nikolaos.pappas(a)LIU.SE> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear Colleagues, We are very pleased to announce that the 2019 IEEE INFOCOM Workshop on Ultra-Low Latency in Wireless Networks (ULLWN 2019) will be held on April 29, 2019, in conjunction with IEEE INFOCOM 2019. --------------------------------------------------- Scope and Topics of Interest --------------------------------------------------- In order to handle the ever-increasing traffic load, existing wireless networks have typically been designed and planned with a focus on improving throughput and increasing coverage. Achieving ultra-low latencies - often together with unprecedented levels of reliability, has not been in the mainstream in most wireless networks, due to the focus on human-centric communications and delay-tolerant content. However, a plethora of socially useful applications and new uses of wireless communication are envisioned in areas such as augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR), industrial control, automated driving or flying, mission-critical IoT, remote robotics, smart grid and tactile Internet. In response, new releases of mobile cellular networks (mainly focusing on 5G new radio and beyond) are envisaged to support scenarios with extremely strict requirements in terms of latency (ranging from 1 ms and below to few milliseconds end-to-end latency depending on the use cases). Low latency communication poses significant theoretical and practical challenges, requiring a departure from throughput-oriented system design towards a holistic view (network architecture, control, and data) for guaranteed and reliable end-to-end latency. Cooperative networking can maintain the robustness of network connectivity, since in cooperation, wireless nodes assist each other for improved connectivity and increased diversity. Most present systems employ centralized resource allocation, which is inappropriate for such applications though, as it relies on a significant control-layer overhead and incurs severe latency. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Low latency communication in mission-critical and emergency applications - Cooperative networks for achieving ultra-low latencies - Buffer-aided cooperative networks with stringent delay constraints - Fundamental limits, performance analysis, network theoretic approaches (e.g. stochastic network calculus, timely throughput) - Anticipatory network models for low-latency networking - Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence for achieving ultra-low latencies - Edge caching and content replication for low latency - Network slicing and network function virtualization - Applications: Factory automation and industrial control, Tactile Internet, Industry 4.0, Intelligent transportation, V2X communications, Remote robotics, Smart grid, eHealth, Mobile edge cloud computing, Safety-critical avionics. --------------------------------------------------- Submission Instructions --------------------------------------------------- The ULLWN Workshop calls for original and unpublished papers no longer than 6 pages. The review process is single blind. The manuscripts should be formatted in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font) and be submitted as PDF files (formatted for 8.5x11 inch paper). Manuscripts should be submitted as PDF files through the EDAS website: http://edas.info/N25584 --------------------------------------------------- Important Dates --------------------------------------------------- Submission: January 18th, 2019 Decisions: February 22nd, 2019 Camera ready: March 10th, 2019 --------------------------------------------------- Workshop Organizers --------------------------------------------------- Prof. Nikolaos Pappas (Linkoping University, Sweden) Prof. Themistoklis Charalambous (Aalto University, Finland) Dr. Marios Kountouris (Huawei Technologies, France) --------------------------------------------------- Workshop Steering Committee --------------------------------------------------- Prof. Gustavo de Veciana (The University of Texas at Austin, USA) Prof. I-Hong Hou (Texas A&M University, USA) Prof. Thrasyvoulos Spyropoulos (EURECOM, France) Best regards, The ULLWN 2019 Organizers ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] Special Section on Network Resource Management in Flying Ad Hoc Networks: Challenges, Potentials, Future Applications, and Wayforward -- IEEE Access (Impact Factor = 3.55) Datum: Thu, 3 Jan 2019 12:26:52 -0500 Von: Mubashir Rehmani <mshrehmani(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Mubashir Rehmani <mshrehmani(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear All, Please find below a call for papers for Special Section in IEEE Access Journal. Link: http://ieeeaccess.ieee.org/special-sections/network-resource-management-in-… Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. Call for Paper -------------------- Submission Deadline: 01 April, 2019 IEEE Access invites manuscript submissions in the area of Network Resource Management in Flying Ad Hoc Networks: Challenges, Potentials, Future Applications, and Wayforward. INTRODUCTION/OVERVIEW ------------------------------------------- With the rapid development in the fields of wireless ad hoc networks that do not rely on any pre-existing infrastructure, Flying Ad hoc networks (FANETs) have recently captured the attention of vendors and investors due to the flying nature of entities in the network. FANET is composed of nodes that fly at high altitude platforms such as balloons, unmanned aerial vehicles or drones, which have the ability to fly without a human pilot aboard. The network of nodes that fly at high altitude has gained commercial and industrial popularity because of its applications in surveillance, agriculture, photography, etc. For instance, the new applications that are being developed for FANET bring up the new challenges such as multipath propagation, severe shadowing, traffic load balancing, mobility, congestion, high error rates, etc., that usually results in the performance degradation of the network. However, the applications developed and used in FANET may also result in collision with the commercial flights due to the above challenges. The Federal Aviation Administration has been reported about the tremendous increase of more than 50% in the air traffic specifically the unmanned vehicles in 2017. However, such an increase in the UAVs results in an increase in the network traffic of FANET that may lead to an unbalanced traffic distribution, resulting in an increase in packet loss due to collision. Furthermore, the high data traffic generated by the number of nodes in FANET is one of the leading causes of accidents with the commercial flights. In order to cope with such kind of challenges, the network traffic of FANET must be distributed in such a way that it should neither disturb the commercial flights nor the communication among the nodes that fly at high altitudes in a network. This Special Issue therefore solicits original research work, novel protocols, methodologies and survey papers addressing the future challenges and solutions that embark on network resource management in FANETs. The topics of Special Issue include, but are not limited to: - Efficient deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) at high altitude platforms (HAPs) for congestion avoidance and control - Dynamic traffic load balancing for congestion avoidance through routing in Flying Ad hoc Networks - Performance investigation of 5G systems with flying ad hoc networks (FANETs) - An optimal data collection and dissemination technique for balanced traffic utilization in FANETs - Distributed congestion-aware position oriented MAC/Routing protocols for FANETs - Performance evaluation of layered protocols of TCP/IP for multimedia traffic in flying ad hoc networks (FANETs) at different altitude platforms - Analysis of Reactive, proactive, and hybrid routing protocols for flying Ad Hoc networks - Opportunistic routing for distributed video traffic dissemination over flying ad hoc networks - A cross layer design for distributed information dissemination over flying ad hoc networks - Agricultural environment monitoring system based on UAV in FANETs - Congestion avoidance, detection, and mitigation in Flying Ad-Hoc Network for efficient utilization of network resources - Distributed clustering approach for FANETs - Enhanced connectivity for robust multimedia transmission in UAV networks - Active Queue Management for resource sharing in Flying Ad hoc Networks - Bio-inspired routing protocols for FANET routing - Multi-hop and relay-based communications for distributed traffic load balancing - Smart solutions to reduce congestion in FANETs - Interaction of FANET with IoT - Distributed Emergency Message Dissemination in FANET Associate Editor: Omer Chughtai, COMSATS University Islamabad, Wah Campus, Wah Cantt, Pakistan.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP – Wi-DroIT 2019 – 1st International Workshop on Wireless Drones over Internet of Things Datum: Thu, 3 Jan 2019 15:46:47 +0000 Von: Francesco Betti Sorbelli <francesco.bettisorbelli(a)UNIPG.IT> Antwort an: Francesco Betti Sorbelli <francesco.bettisorbelli(a)UNIPG.IT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Wi-DroIT 2019 1st International Workshop on Wireless Drones over Internet of Things in conjunction with the 15th International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (DCOSS 2019) Santorini Island, Greece May 29 - 31, 2019 --------- Conference website: https://widroit2019.loria.fr/ Submission link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=widroit2019 Contact: enrico.natalizio(a)loria.fr<mailto:enrico.natalizio@loria.fr> | cristina.pinotti(a)unipg.it<mailto:cristina.pinotti@unipg.it> --------- Aim and Scope In the last few years, the Drones, and more generally Unmanned Autonomous Vehicles (UAVs), have developed rapidly and have been used for emergent applications that range from inspection, surveillance, agriculture, cargo delivery, and communications. The symbiosis between Drones and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) started quite naturally as more and more networks of wireless sensors are scattered to detect special events and the areas that need to be monitored increase. In WSNs, Drones can act as a mobile sensor node that carry the data collected by the WSN towards the external world saving extra sensors to guarantee the full connectivity of the WSN and the full coverage of the deployment area. However, flying over the deployment area, a single small drone can also act as a collector or replace several anchors, i.e., special sensors equipped with GPS module, for localizing all the network sensors, saving the cost of the anchor nodes and the cost of their deployment. Thus, in WSN scenario, the drone can be regarded as the light infrastructure that closes the loop towards the autonomous WSNs or the mobile carrier that virtually replicate sensing equipment. Evolving WSNs in Internet of Things (IoT), the drones may become terminal devices at the edge of the ubiquitous IoT network. Having the ability to sense/measure just about anything and anywhere, drones may act as wireless sensor network deployed, at need, in remote locations, with the extra capability of carrying flexible payloads and the strong ability to be re-programmable during missions. Drones can play the role of quickly distributing critical information at the edge of the network, quickly checking status (detecting anomalies) of durable goods connected to IoT network. Drones and UAVs can become the backbone of the communication infrastructure for the Long-Term Evolution (LTE) networks in an emergency. For this reason, Drones/UAVs have also been included in 4G and 5G research and development activities. Connected to the IoT, Drones can be part of autonomous delivery on-demand systems and instead of operating individually (navigating in the line-of-sight controlled by a ground station) they operate in fleets that communicate, and navigate in real-time, beyond the line-of-sight. Single or multiple Drones/UAVs can cooperatively provide services that require efficient protocols where multiple objectives and constraints should be accounted. With this in mind, Drones and UAVs will grow in the future and they will become ever-more numerous in our skies. For this workshop, we search for papers that combine design of algorithms, optimization, and test-bed to develop the theoretical foundations for the drone systems operating in symbiosis with WSN in IoT applications. The numerous emergent applications nurtured by IoT may require an interdisciplinary approach, involving techniques from algorithm foundations as well as different areas, like robotics, artificial intelligence, mathematical modelling. Applications in complex domains lead to situations where multiple optimization objectives should be accounted in the proposed solutions. Decentralized and distributed, robust and secure algorithms are searched for drones systems that operate in rapidly-changing, uncertain, and potentially adversarial environments. Topics (Not limited to) * Autonomous WSN via Drones * Topology monitoring of WSN with Drones * Build Remote Sensing Networks in emergency context via Drones * Communication architectures and protocols of Drones over IoT * Modelling and analysis of Drone systems over IoT * Theoretical foundations for communication routing beyond line-of-sight of Drones * Communication and networking aspects of cyber-physical systems * Theoretical foundations for parcel delivery using Drones * Drones/UAVS for monitoring network properties (coverage, connectivity) in emergency * Drones for detecting or discovering events * Facility location problem and Resource Management for Drone systems * 4G-5G networks and UAVs * UAV assisted networks * Drones for environment (crop/forest) monitoring * Constraints and multiobjective optimization problems in UAVs * Localization, navigation, and dynamic path planning of UAVs over IoT * Ground Localization with Drones * Cooperative control of multiple UAVs * UAV secure communication techniques * Optimal UAV deployment strategies * High-accuracy navigation techniques * Real-time surveillance techniques * Performance, scalability, energy, and reliability in Drones’ systems * Anomaly detection, network monitoring and forecasting * Trust, security, and privacy * Experimental results, simulators and test beds for drone networks * Cooperative Rendezvous for secure drone to drone communications * Secure communication between the drone and the ground networks Program Chairs Enrico Natalizio, University of Lorraine/LORIA, France; enrico.natalizio(a)loria.fr<mailto:enrico.natalizio@loria.fr> Cristina M.

Call for Papers Cloud computing has been widely adopted to enable convenient access to a shared pool of computing resources. Nevertheless, as the distance between the cloud and the edge device is usually large, cloud computing services may not provide guarantees to low latency applications, and transmitting a large amount of data (e.g., in big data analytics) from the device to the cloud may not be feasible or economical. To address these issues, edge (fog) computing has been proposed to deploy computing resources closer to end users. Edge computing allows edge devices to perform computation offloading to offload their computational tasks to the edge server, which executes the computational tasks on behalf of the edge devices. Another new technology called information-centric networking (ICN) has been extensively studied in recent years. In-network caching is used in ICN to reduce the duplicate content transmission in networks. ICN-based caching has been recognized as one of the promising techniques for future wireless/wired networks. Recently, there is a phenomenal burst of research activities in integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading in next generation networks. From the perspective of applications (e.g., video), network, cache and compute are underlying resources enabling these applications. How to manage, control and optimize these resources can have significant impacts on the performance of applications. The Workshop on "Integrating Edge Computing, Caching, and Offloading in Next Generation Networks" provides a forum that brings together industry and academia, engineers and researchers to discuss up-to-date developments in integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading in next generation networks. The workshop invites submissions of unpublished works on (but not limited to) the following topics: Trends and challenges of integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Low-latency offload infrastructure Micro data cells/centers for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Cloudlets for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading networks Supporting real-time multimedia services over edge computing, caching, and offloading networks Edge computing networks for wireless big data applications Machine learning based edge computing, caching, and offloading wireless networks Artificial Intelligence (AI), data mining and big data analytics in the edge of wireless network AI and machine learning for multimedia services Energy and spectrum efficient wireless network operations and wireless resource allocations via AI and machine learning algorithms Caching, and edge computing using software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization (NFV) Architectures and protocols for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Designs and optimizations for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Information-centric and content-centric networks Information theory for caching and offloading Cache-enabled networks Computation offloading in networks Networks for cloud computing Networks for edge/fog computing Integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading in 5G cellular networks Energy efficient hardware, software, networks and services QoS provisioning and resource management in integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Modeling and performance evaluation of integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Performance/complexity/cost tradeoff Pricing and billing for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Security and privacy for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Green and sustainable edge computing, caching, and offloading Big data for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Signal processing for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Information theory for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Interdisciplinary research for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading Studies for integrating D2D/M2M and IoT with edge computing, caching, and offloading Implementations and trails for edge computing, caching, and offloading Standards, policies, and regulations for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading 2.

Some of these mission-critical applications include the utilization of ground sensor, robot and UAV networks, which are the confluence point where the traditional fields of wireless communications, robotics and control theory meet. Autonomous cooperative systems, made of intelligent devices (such as robots and UAVs), may deploy, repair and relocate sensors to improve coverage, build routes and fix network partition to ensure data communication, change network topology to shape routing patterns and balance energy consumption, and respond to reported events in a timely and effective manner. The benefits are limited only by imagination. As an emerging field, the 5G architecture foresees explicitly the usage of these specialized systems and offer new networking techniques, by which they can fully exploit their particularities and potentials. Starting from the tradition of MiSeNet and WiSARN workshops, IEEE MiSARN 2018 will aim to provide a forum for participants from academia and industry to discuss topics in mission-oriented WSNs, cyber-physical systems and UAV/Robot networking, combining both research and practice. IEEE MiSARN 2018 will serve as incubator for scientific communities that share a particular research agenda in the area of the workshops topics.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE INFOCOM 2019 Workshop on Ultra-Low Latency in Wireless Networks (ULLWN)

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Nikolaos Pappas <nikolaos.pappas(a)LIU.SE> Gesendet: 20. Dezember 2018 23:44:14 MEZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE INFOCOM 2019 Workshop on Ultra-Low Latency in Wireless Networks (ULLWN) Dear Colleagues, We are very pleased to announce that the 2019 IEEE INFOCOM Workshop on Ultra-Low Latency in Wireless Networks (ULLWN 2019) will be held on April 29, 2019, in conjunction with IEEE INFOCOM 2019. --------------------------------------------------- Scope and Topics of Interest --------------------------------------------------- In order to handle the ever-increasing traffic load, existing wireless networks have typically been designed and planned with a focus on improving throughput and increasing coverage. Achieving ultra-low latencies â€“ often together with unprecedented levels of reliability, has not been in the mainstream in most wireless networks, due to the focus on human-centric communications and delay-tolerant content. However, a plethora of socially useful applications and new uses of wireless communication are envisioned in areas such as augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR), industrial control, automated driving or flying, mission-critical IoT, remote robotics, smart grid and tactile Internet. In response, new releases of mobile cellular networks (mainly focusing on 5G new radio and beyond) are envisaged to support scenarios with extremely strict requirements in terms of latency (ranging from 1 ms and below to few milliseconds end-to-end latency depending on the use cases). Low latency communication poses significant theoretical and practical challenges, requiring a departure from throughput-oriented system design towards a holistic view (network architecture, control, and data) for guaranteed and reliable end-to-end latency. Cooperative networking can maintain the robustness of network connectivity, since in cooperation, wireless nodes assist each other for improved connectivity and increased diversity. Most present systems employ centralized resource allocation, which is inappropriate for such applications though, as it relies on a significant control-layer overhead and incurs severe latency. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Low latency communication in mission-critical and emergency applications - Cooperative networks for achieving ultra-low latencies - Buffer-aided cooperative networks with stringent delay constraints - Fundamental limits, performance analysis, network theoretic approaches (e.g. stochastic network calculus, timely throughput) - Anticipatory network models for low-latency networking - Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence for achieving ultra-low latencies - Edge caching and content replication for low latency - Network slicing and network function virtualization - Applications: Factory automation and industrial control, Tactile Internet, Industry 4.0, Intelligent transportation, V2X communications, Remote robotics, Smart grid, eHealth, Mobile edge cloud computing, Safety-critical avionics. --------------------------------------------------- Submission Instructions --------------------------------------------------- The ULLWN Workshop calls for original and unpublished papers no longer than 6 pages. The review process is single blind. The manuscripts should be formatted in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font) and be submitted as PDF files (formatted for 8.5x11 inch paper).

Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue in Wiley ETT (IF = 1.61) Special Issue on Context-Aware Mobility in Internet of Things: Enabling Technologies, Applications and Challenges Submission Deadline: January 31, 2019 This CFP can be seen at the website of IJDSN at *https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/pb-assets/assets/21613915/ETT%20-%20Proposed%20Special%20Issue%20(Context-aware%20mobility%20in%20IoT)%20-%20Final%20-%20CFP%20171218.pdf <https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/pb-assets/assets/21613915/ETT%20-%20Propose…>* Internet of Things (IoT) is a revolutionary paradigm for connected objects that enables diverse communication between heterogeneous devices. Continuous connectivity empowers these devices to socialize with each other by sharing information from distinct sources. IoT has played a profound role in diverse domains of life ranging from healthcare to agriculture, education to enterprise and transportation to engineering and many more. A progressive embracement of IoT by industry and individuals has enabled the realization of concepts such as Smart Cities and Smart Industries that were considered a mere dream decade ago. Further, mobility in IoT brings a lot of challenges when it comes to providing generic frameworks, protocols, applications and services such as uncertainty, dynamicity, disruptions, scalability and reliability etc. Highly mobile objects have tendency to change their context at a rapid pace that brings the challenge of realizing the applications that require contextual information for their operations and functionality. Generating context information requires extensive data analysis, high energy consumption, intelligent sensing and large storages to ensure appropriate information dissemination entities involved in the system. Context-aware mobility has gained tremendous attention with the advent of new generation of portal devices, e.g., smart phones, smart watches, tablets, fitness bands and smart cars etc. Change in the context can significantly transform the overall outcome of the system based on the devices, users, applications and environmental parameters. Recent advancements in IoT are still in their fancy and require standardization, benchmarking, architectural designs, models, guidelines, policies and measurement criteria for development and deployment of context-aware applications and services. This special issue is expected to provide a platform for academics and industry researchers to identify and debate enabling technologies, technical and non-technical challenges and recent accomplishments associated with contextaware mobility in IoT. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: • Architectural Design for Context-Aware Mobile IoT systems • Data Processing and Analytics for Mobile Contextualization • Context-aware mobility in IoT using Fog Computing • Security, Privacy and Trust Management in Context-aware Mobility • Social and Ethical implications of Context-aware Mobility in IoT Devices • Applications and Use Case Scenarios of Context-aware Mobile IoT Systems • Communication Technologies for Mobile IoT based on Context Intelligence • Context-Aware Mobility in Transportation • Context-Aware Mobility in Healthcare • Context-aware Mobility based Business Models for IoT applications • Wearable IoT based applications for context intelligence The submitted manuscripts for this special collection will be peer-reviewed before publication.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CPS-IoTBench 2019] Call for Papers Datum: Mon, 17 Dec 2018 11:16:06 +0000 Von: Ramona Marfievici <Ramona.Marfievici(a)CIT.IE> Antwort an: Ramona Marfievici <Ramona.Marfievici(a)CIT.IE> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers 2nd Workshop on Benchmarking Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet of Things (CPS-IoTBench - co-located with CPS-IoT Week) April 15, 2019 - Montreal, Canada https://cps-iotbench2019.ethz.ch/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- AIMS AND SCOPE Over the last decade, research on cyber-physical systems (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT) has led to smart systems at different scales and environments, from smart homes to smart cities and smart 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, it is difficult to measure and compare the utility of these results due to a lack of standard evaluation criteria and methodologies. 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 the present and future real-world CPS and IoT applications and deployments. This state of affairs is alarming as it may significantly hinder further progress in CPS and IoT research. The 2nd Workshop on Benchmarking Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet of Things (CPS-IoTBench) brings together researchers from the different sub-communities to engage in a lively debate on all facets of rigorously evaluating and comparing CPS and IoT solutions. 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’s perspective. We invite researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to submit short papers. We particularly encourage submissions that focus on one of the following: - identify fundamental challenges and open questions in rigorous benchmarking and evaluation of CPS and IoT solutions; - offer a constructive critique on the current practice and state of experimental comparison; - report on success stories or failures with using standard evaluation criteria; - describe efforts to replicate or reproduce experimental results from published research; - present example benchmark systems and approaches from any of the relevant communities (embedded systems, real-time systems, networking, wireless communication and control, etc.); - benchmark industrial standardized solutions against each other and against academic solutions, and discuss their strengths and weakness for different application use-cases and industry verticals; - propose 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. Accepted papers will be published in both IEEE Xplore and the ACM Digital Library as part of the CPS-IoT Week proceedings. Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their work at the workshop. SUBMISSION AND FORMATTING 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.

It is predicted that the number of mobile-connected devices will exceed 11.5 billion by 2019 (nearly 1.5 mobile devices per capita), which poses a huge traffic demand for ubiquitous communications. Data rates are projected to increase by a factor of ten every five years, and with the emerging Internet of Things (IoT) predicted to wirelessly connect trillions of devices across the globe. It is anticipated that we will witness an up to 10000- fold growth in wireless data traffic by the year 2030. Predictions evidently indicates that the growth in data traffic will cater unprecedented services and applications for machine type communication such as driverless vehicles and drone-based deliveries, smart cities and factories, remote medical diagnosis and surgery, and artificial intelligence- based personalized assistants along with traditional human-centric communications. Coexistence of human-centric and machine-type services as well as hybrids of these will make next generation wireless networks more diverse and complex. Current wireless radio access techniques are not capable of delivering these new applications and services as they are way different from traditional human-centric communications in terms of reliability, latency, energy efficiency, security, flexibility, and connection density. Without novel approaches, future wireless mobile networks (5G and beyond) will grind to a halt unless more capacity is created, on the other hand, to cope with the challenges due to new service categories, a new look on the wireless networks is required to meet performance requirements such as massive connectivity, lower latency, higher reliability, better energy efficiency and security. *** Topics *** To overcome the aforementioned challenges of emerging wireless communications and networks for 5G and Beyond, this special issue focuses on (but are not restricted to) the following topics: - Ultra-reliable and low latency communication (URLLC) - Massive machine-type communication (mMTC) - New air interface design for 5G (New Radio (NR)) - QoS/QoE mechanisms for wireless communications and networks - 5G wireless heterogeneous networks: design and optimization - Sensing technologies and applications for 5G - 5G wireless communications and networks for surveillance and management - 5G Cognitive networks and IoT - Experimental results, prototypes, and testbeds of 5G wireless communications and networks - Integration and co-existence of 5G wireless communication and network technologies - Energy efficiency (harvesting and saving) wireless protocols and algorithms for 5G - Security and privacy concerns in 5G wireless communications - NOMA, full-duplex, massive MIMO - Green 5G multimedia wireless networks - AI techniques for Wireless Communication and security - mmWave Massive MIMO - Hardware impairments affecting wireless communications *** Important Dates *** Manuscript submission deadline: 31st December 2018 Notification of acceptance: 1st March 2019 Submission of final revised paper: 1st May 2019 Publication of special issue (tentative): August 2019 *** Guest Editors *** Dr. Trung Q. Duong, Queen’s University Belfast, UK Dr. Chinmoy Kundu, University of Texas at Dallas, USA Dr. Antonino Masaracchia, University of Palermo, Italy Dr. Van-Dinh Nguyen, Soongsil University, Korea *** Instructions for submission *** This MONET Half Special Issue will publish six selected high-quality extended papers from 14th EAI International Conference on Heterogeneous Networking for Quality, Reliability, Security and Robustness (QShine 2018) http://www.qshine.org and from the open call-for-papers.

In addition to the traditional ACM WiSec topics of physical, link, and network layer security, we welcome papers focusing on the increasingly diverse range of mobile or wireless applications such as Internet of Things, and Cyber-Physical Systems, as well as the security and privacy of mobile software platforms, usable security and privacy, biometrics, and cryptography. The conference welcomes both theoretical as well as systems contributions. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Security protocols for wireless networking * Security & privacy for smart devices (e.g., smartphones) * Security of mobile applications for smartphones and wearables * Wireless and mobile privacy and anonymity * Secure localization and location privacy * Cellular network fraud and security * Jamming attacks and defenses * Key management (agreement or distribution) for wireless or mobile systems * Theoretical and formal approaches for wireless and mobile security * Physical layer and Information-theoretic security schemes for wireless systems * Cryptographic primitives for wireless and mobile security * NFC and smart payment applications * Security and privacy for mobile sensing systems * Wireless or mobile security for Cyber-Physical Systems (e.g, healthcare, smart grid, or IoT applications) * Vehicular networks security (e.g., drones, automotive, avionics, autonomous driving) * Physical tracking security and privacy * Usable mobile security and privacy * Economics of mobile security and privacy * Mobile malware and platform security * Security for cognitive radio and dynamic spectrum access systems The proceedings of ACM WiSec, sponsored by SIGSAC, will be published by the ACM. Full and short papers ===================== Full paper submissions to ACM WiSec 2019 can be up to 10 pages in the ACM conference style excluding the bibliography and well marked appendices, and up to 12 pages in total. ACM WiSec also encourages the submission of short papers with a length of up to 6 pages, which describe mature work of a more succinct nature. All papers must be thoroughly anonymized for double-blind reviewing. Detailed submission instructions will appear on the conference website. Opinion papers ============== ACM WiSec 2019 invites papers (ACM conference style, up to 3 pages excluding references) that present personal perspectives on all aspects of security and privacy in wireless and mobile networks. Opinion papers could also criticize previous research or research directions, as well as highlight possible promising research directions. The opinions expressed in these papers are expected to be anyway corroborated by theoretical foundations, experiments, or experiences. Like the regular papers, the opinion papers will be reviewed by the WiSec Technical Program Committee. The selected opinion papers will be a part of the WiSec technical program and will be published in the conference proceedings. Opinion papers should be submitted using the same submission procedure adopted for the full papers. The title of these papers must have the prefix "Opinion:". Replicability label =================== The goal of the replicability label is to support replicability in mobile and wireless security experimental research process and to increase the impact of mobile and wireless research, enable dissemination of research results, sharing of code and experiments setups, and to enable the research community to build on prior experimental results. WiSec will follow the ACM policy on artifact review and badging. Towards this goal, the WiSec replicability label recognizes papers whose results were replicated by an independent group of researchers. Authors of accepted papers can participate in this voluntary process by submitting their experiments according to the replicability evaluation instructions. Authors are encouraged to plan ahead when running their experiments to minimize the overhead of applying for this label. Posters and Demos ================= WiSec also solicits submission of posters and demos. The instructions to submit posters/demos will be made available later on WiSec 2019 website. Double submissions ================== It is a policy of the ACM to disallow double submissions, where the same (or substantially similar) paper is concurrently submitted to multiple conferences/journals. Any double submissions detected will be immediately rejected from all conferences/journals involved. Organisation Committee ====================== General Chair: * Selcuk Uluagac, Florida International University PC co-Chairs: * Yingying (Jennifer) Chen, Rutgers University * Aurélien Francillon, EURECOM ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

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

In 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, ZWave). An appealing alternative that have gained momentum in the IoT landscape is to equip the nodes with long-range radio modules. As a result, long-range radio communication technologies (e.g., SigFox, LoRa, 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 1st Workshop on Emerging Technologies and Trends in Engineering Low-Power Networks (NewNets) brings 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. We invite researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to submit papers. We particularly encourage submissions that focus on one of the following: - protocol design; - hardware platform design; - modelling 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); - radio resource management; - 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 AND FORMATTING 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. Authors should indicate their names and affiliations on the first page of the paper. All submissions must be in PDF format and render without error using standard viewers (e.g., Acrobat Reader). Submitted papers must differ significantly in content from previously published papers and must not be currently under review for any other publication. Paper submission deadline: Thursday, January 17, 2019 (11:59:59PM EST) Notification to authors: Sunday, February 17, 2019 Camera-ready submission deadline: Wednesday, February 27, 2019 ORGANIZERS TPC Co-chairs: Oana Iova (INSA Lyon, France) Ramona Marfievici (Nimbus Research Center, Ireland) Usman Raza (Toshiba Research Europe Limited, UK) TPC MEMBERS Matteo Ceriotti (University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany) Victor Cionca (Cork Institute of Technology, Ireland) Evgeny Khorov (IITP RAS and NRU HSE, Russia) Gaia Maselli (University of Rome La Sapienza, Italy) Konstantin Mikhaylov (University of Oulu, Finland) Georgios Papadopoulus (IMT Atlantique, France) Rajeev Pyiare (Fondazione Bruno Kessler, Italy) Vijay Rao (Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands) Felix Sutton (ABB Corporate Research, Switzerland) Eirini Eleni Tsiropoulou (University of New Mexico, USA) Ambuj Varshney (Uppsala University, Sweden) ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Some of these mission-critical applications include the utilization of ground sensor, robot and UAV networks, which are the confluence point where the traditional fields of wireless communications, robotics and control theory meet. Autonomous cooperative systems, made of intelligent devices (such as robots and UAVs), may deploy, repair and relocate sensors to improve coverage, build routes and fix network partition to ensure data communication, change network topology to shape routing patterns and balance energy consumption, and respond to reported events in a timely and effective manner. The benefits are limited only by imagination. As an emerging field, the 5G architecture foresees explicitly the usage of these specialized systems and offer new networking techniques, by which they can fully exploit their particularities and potentials. Starting from the tradition of MiSeNet and WiSARN workshops, IEEE MiSARN 2018 will aim to provide a forum for participants from academia and industry to discuss topics in mission-oriented WSNs, cyber-physical systems and UAV/Robot networking, combining both research and practice. IEEE MiSARN 2018 will serve as incubator for scientific communities that share a particular research agenda in the area of the workshopos topics. IEEE MiSARN 2018 will provide its participants with opportunities to understand the major technical and application challenges of mission-oriented WSNs, cyber-physical systems and UAV/Robot networking as well as exchange and discuss scientific and engineering ideas related to their architecture, protocol, algorithm, and application design, in particular at a stage before they have matured to warrant conference/journal publications. IEEE MiSARN 2018 will seek papers that present novel theoretical and practical ideas as well as work in-progress, which will lead to the development of solid foundations for the design, analysis, and implementation of energy-efficient, reliable, and secure mission-oriented WSN applications and cyber-physical systems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ TOPICS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Theoretical foundations, modeling and analysis of mission-oriented WSNs - System design, implementation, and evaluation of mission-oriented WSNs - Medium access control and scheduling in mission-oriented WSNs - Software architectures for mission-oriented WSNs - Self-organization, self-configuration, and energy efficiency in mission-oriented WSNs - Topology control, coverage and connectivity issues in mission-oriented WSNs - Routing and data dissemination in mission-oriented WSNs - In-network data storage and processing in mission-oriented WSNs - Sensor database management in mission-oriented WSNs - Localization, detection and tracking in mission-oriented WSNs - Cryptography, privacy, robustness, security aspects of mission-oriented WSNs - Internet and cloud computing, cloud of Things in mission-oriented WSNs - Sensor-enabled robots and drones in mission-oriented WSNs - Wearable computing and human centricity in mission-oriented WSNs - Cyber-physical systems in mission-oriented WSNs - Theoretical foundations of Cyber-Physical Systems - Signal Processing for Cyber-Physical Systems - Mechanism Design for Cyber-Physical Systems - Control and Optimization of Cyber-Physical Systems - Data Mining and Analytics Applied to Cyber-Physical Systems - Game Theory Applied to Cyber-Physical Systems - Mobile and Cloud Computing for Cyber-Physical Systems - Security of Cyber-Physical Systems - Model-Based Design and Verification of Cyber-Physical Systems - Testbed design and real-world applications of mission-oriented WSNs - Autonomous sensor networks - Emergent behavior in robotic systems - UAV-aided wireless sensor networks - Optimal control of networked robots - Robot advanced motion control - Modeling and control of fleet of UAVs - Autonomic and self-organizing coordination and communication in Robot and UAV networks - Sensor-robot and robot-robot coordination - Energy-efficient and real-time communication protocols in Robot and UAV networks - Distributed control and management for Robot and UAV network deployments - Communication protocols for swarms of mobile nodes - Map exploration and pattern formation of mobile robots - Robot task assignment - Biologically inspired communication systems for Robot and UAV networks - Software-Defined Aerial Networks - Endurance Management - Ground sensors to UAVs communication and data gathering - Context-awareness and decision making for UAV systems - Path planning, and target tracking in UAV networks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It is required that the manuscript follows the standard IEEE camera-ready format (double column, 10-pt font) and be submitted as PDF file (formatted for 8.5-11 inch paper) as well as the requirement set by the EDAS paper submission system.

June 10-13, 2019 *http://emergingtechnet.org/FMEC2019/index.php <http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Femergingtechnet.org%2FFMEC2019%2Fi…>* (Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE Italy Section) *FMEC CFP* Cloud computing provides large range of services and virtually unlimited available resources for users. New applications, such as virtual reality and smart building control, have emerged due to the large number of resources and services brought by cloud computing. However, the delay-sensitive applications face the problem of large latency, especially when several smart devices and objects are getting involved in human’s life such as the case of smart cities or Internet of Things. Therefore, cloud computing is unable to meet the requirements of low latency, location awareness, and mobility support. To solve this problem, researchers have introduced a trusted and dependable solution through the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC) to put the services and resources of the cloud closer to users, which facilitates the leveraging of available services and resources in the edge networks. By this, we are moving from the core (cloud data centers) to the edge of the network closer to the users. FMEC dependability is based on providing user centric service. The purpose of Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing is to run the heavy real-time applications at the network edge directly using the billions of connected mobile devices. Several features enable the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing to be a perfect paradigm to the aforementioned purpose, which are the dense geographical deployment of servers, supporting mobility and the closeness to users. As in every new technology, some challenges face the vision of the Fog and the Mobile Edge Computing, which are the administrative policies and security concerns (i.e. secure data storage, secure computation, network security, data privacy, usage privacy, location privacy, etc). FMEC 2019 conference aims to investigate the opportunities and requirements for Mobile Edge Computing dominance. In addition, it seeks for novel contributions that help mitigating Mobile Edge Computing challenges. That is, the objective of FMEC 2019 is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers, and researchers to discuss and exchange new ideas, novel results and experience on all aspects of Fog and Mobile Edge Computing (FMEC).
