Starting as a niche application over Wi-Fi, they can now be found in mainstream technologies like Bluetooth LE, LTE Direct and Wireless LANs, and have become the cornerstone of upcoming networking paradigms including mesh and sensor networks, cloud networks, vehicular networks, disruption tolerant and opportunistic networks, and in-body networks. The challenges of this exciting research field are numerous. Examples include how to make smart use of these novel technologies when multiple technologies or a mix of permanent services and on-demand networking opportunities are available to a network node, how to provide robust services in highly dynamic environments, how to efficiently employ and operate heavily resource-constrained devices, and how to develop robust and lightweight algorithms for self-organization and adaptation. Finally, there are many application-specific challenges. WONS, now in its sixteenth edition, is a high-quality forum to address these challenges. WONS aims to provide a global platform for rich interactions between experts in their fields, discussing innovative contributions in a stimulating environment. This announcement solicits original contributions of high-quality research providing novel insights on all aspects of wireless on-demand networks and systems; from protocol and network design, modeling, performance evaluation, energy efficiency, models and mechanisms, practical implementations, service level aspects, application use-cases, to the integration of multiple wireless network technologies.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP-IEEE Wireless Communications Special Issue on Aerial Computing: Drones for Multi-Access Edge Computing
by Lars Wolf 17 Dec '20

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP-IEEE Wireless Communications Special Issue on Aerial Computing: Drones for Multi-Access Edge Computing Datum: Thu, 17 Dec 2020 14:43:51 +0800 Von: Jianchao Zheng <longxingren.zjc.s(a)163.COM> Antwort an: Jianchao Zheng <longxingren.zjc.s(a)163.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG [Apologies, if you receive multiple copies of this CFP]Dear colleagues, You are cordially invited to submit your latest research results to the IEEE Wireless Communications Special Issue on Aerial Computing: Drones for Multi-Access Edge Computing Call for Papers With the explosive development of the Internet of Things (IoT) and 5G communications, multi-access edge computing (MEC) has emerged as an effective solution to help mobile devices deal with computation-intensive and delay-sensitive applications. However, computing servers are usually embedded in fixed access points (APs) or base stations (BSs), and thus pose many disadvantages. Recently, a new paradigm of drone-enabled aerial computing has drawn extensive attention due to drones’ mobility, flexibility, and maneuverability. When the computing servers embedded in APs/BSs are overloaded or unavailable, drones can be quickly deployed to designated areas to meet temporary and/or unexpected demands. Moreover, benefiting from line-of-sight properties of air-ground links, aerial computing can effectively reduce task delay and transmission energy consumption as compared to terrestrial computing. In particular, aerial computing can play an important role in disaster areas, emergency relief and battlefields, which are lacking available terrestrial infrastructures. Despite its many advantages, aerial computing also presents some challenges. For instance, due to the high mobility of drones, aerial computing is significantly different from terrestrial computing. Specifically, wireless links to/from a drone vary significantly over time, thus requiring elaborate design of the drone’s trajectory, task allocation and resource management. Meanwhile, in order to ensure low transmission energy consumption and task delay, computing and communication resources also need to be precisely allocated over time. The energy efficient trajectory plan of a drone is very important to extend its service time. In addition, due to the limited computing ability of a single drone, multiple drones are worth considering to simultaneously provide computing service, wherein the movement control, cooperation, and the resource allocation of multiple drones all require elaborate design. This Special Issue (SI) brings together the latest research and innovation on aerial computing. All submissions should neither have been published previously nor be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. This special issue covers research, development, application, and all other aspects of this field. Authors are invited to submit manuscripts on topics including, but not limited to, the following: New architectures, frameworks, and protocols for aerial computing Computation offloading, trajectory design and resource allocation for aerial computing Spectrum management and multiple access schemes for aerial computing Energy efficiency, energy harvesting, and green operation for aerial computing Joint optimization of computing, communication, caching, and control for aerial computing Cooperative design and resource allocation for multiple drones Machine learning and artificial intelligence for aerial computing Aerial computing for edge intelligence in large-scale sensor networks Security and privacy-preserving approaches for aerial computing Design and optimization for aerial-ground cooperative computing Aerial computing for industrial IoT applications Edge caching and computing for mobile AR/VR and tactile Internet Submission Guidelines Manuscripts should conform to the standard format as indicated in the Information for Authors section of the Paper Submission Guidelines. All manuscripts to be considered for publication must be submitted by the deadline through Manuscript Central. Select “October 2021/Aerial Computing: Drones for Multi-Access Edge Computing” from the drop-down menu of topics. Important Dates Manuscript Submission Deadline: 15 January 2021 Initial Decision Date: 1 April 2021 Revised Manuscript Due: 1 May 2021 Final Decision Date: 1 June 2021 Final Manuscript Due: 15 August 2021 Publication Date: October 2021 Guest Editors Jianchao Zheng National Innovation Institute of Defense Technology, China Alagan Anpalagan Ryerson University, Canada Mohsen Guizani Qatar University, Qatar Yuan Wu University of Macau, China Ning Zhang Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, USA Xianfu Chen VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, Finland F.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [ACM SIGCOMM 2021 - Virtual] CFP: ACM SIGCOMM 2021 - paper registration/submission January 20/27, 2021 Datum: Wed, 16 Dec 2020 13:46:27 +0000 Von: Casas Pedro <Pedro.Casas(a)AIT.AC.AT> Antwort an: Casas Pedro <Pedro.Casas(a)AIT.AC.AT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG ACM SIGCOMM 2021 August 23-27, 2021 Virtual Event http://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2021/ ***Important dates*** * Jan 20, 2021, 16:59 EST -- Abstract registration deadline * Jan 27, 2021, 16:59 EST -- Paper submission deadline * May 3, 2021 (tentative) -- Notification date ***Call for Papers*** The ACM SIGCOMM 2021 conference seeks papers describing significant research contributions to the field of communication networks and networked systems. SIGCOMM takes a broad view of networking research, which includes (but is not limited to) the following topics: * All types of computer networks such as mobile, wide-area, data-center, embedded, home, and enterprise networks. * All types of wired and wireless technologies, including optics, and acoustic and visible light-based communication. * All aspects of networks and networked systems such as architecture, packet-processing hardware and software, virtualization, mobility, resource management, performance, energy consumption, topology, robustness, security, diagnosis, verification, privacy, economics and evolution, and interactions with applications. * All types of computer network design, analysis, and experimental approaches such as theory, measurements, and machine learning-based techniques. We want each SIGCOMM paper to significantly advance the state-of-the-art in networking by, for instance, proposing and developing novel ideas or rigorously (re-)evaluating existing ideas. The review process will take the nature of the contribution into account. We strongly encourage authors to discuss not only the benefits but also the limitations of their work. SIGCOMM 2021 will accept submissions to the ***experience track*** in addition to the regular research track. Submissions to the experience track describe the design, analysis, and evaluation of techniques in commercial or otherwise widely-used deployment. Experience track submissions need not describe new ideas, but are strongly encouraged to elucidate key insights and takeaways gathered from design, deployment, or operational experience. The PC will evaluate experience-track submissions with the understanding that the primary contributions may be in extending the SIGCOMM community's knowledge of how known techniques fare when adapted to real-world settings, and particularly in settings that most in the community cannot duplicate, for reasons of scale or otherwise. At paper registration time, authors must explicitly indicate both in their paper title and submission form if their paper is to be considered for the experience or regular research track. Submissions to the experience track should also be double-blind. However, given the nature of these papers, it is OK to reveal company or system name but NOT author names. Each submission will only be considered for one track - either the experience or the research track, but not both - in accordance with the authors' preference expressed at submission time. The final conference program will not preserve the distinction between the two tracks. In addition to the main conference, SIGCOMM 2021 will have a series of co-located workshops, tutorials, poster and demo sessions, and conference best paper and SIGCOMM awards. ***Submissions*** Papers submitted to SIGCOMM typically report novel results firmly substantiated by experimentation, deployment, simulation, or analysis. The program committee will judge submissions based upon novelty, significance, correctness, clarity of presentation, and relevance to the SIGCOMM community. All accepted papers will be shepherded by a member of the program committee. Submissions should be in two-column, 10-point format, and can be up to 12 pages in length with as many additional pages as necessary for references and optional appendices. Submissions and final papers may include appendices (following references, not counting against the 12 pages). Reviewers are not required to read appendices or consider them in their review. Authors should thus ensure that the core paper is complete and self-contained. For example, if the appendix provides details of a proof or experiment, the body should summarize the key result. For accepted papers, the shepherd will review appendices and must approve their need. Appendices may also include non-traditional material, such as videos, datasets, and code, all appropriately anonymized. NOTE: For accepted papers, the official publication date is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. (For those rare conferences whose proceedings are published in the ACM Digital Library after the conference is over, the official publication date remains the first day of the conference.) Detailed submission instructions can be found here -- http://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2021/submission.html Submission site: https://sigcomm2021.hotcrp.com ***Artifact Evaluation for Accepted Papers*** The authors of accepted SIGCOMM 2021 papers will be invited to submit supporting materials to the Artifact Evaluation process. Artifact Evaluation is run by a separate committee that will assess how well the submitted artifacts support the work described in the accepted papers. Participation in Artifact Evaluation is voluntary but strongly encouraged and it has no influence on the final decision regarding the papers. Papers that go through the Artifact Evaluation process successfully will receive badges printed on the papers themselves. Additional details on the Artifact Evaluation process can be found here -- https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/artifact-review-badging ***Public Summaries for Accepted Papers*** The SIGCOMM 2021 program will feature public summaries accompanying each accepted paper. In most cases, the summary will be written by the paper's shepherd and will provide an overview of the problem addressed in the paper and its solution, and highlight interesting future questions that arise. The summary may additionally explain aspects of the paper the reviewers particularly liked. Summaries will be published along with the papers in the ACM Digital Library. ***Ethical Concerns*** All papers must include, in the main body of the paper, a statement about ethical issues; papers that don't include such a statement may be rejected. This could be, if appropriate for the paper, simply the sentence "This work does not raise any ethical issues." If the work involves human subjects or potentially sensitive data (e.g., user traffic or social network information, evaluation of censorship, etc.), the paper should clearly discuss these issues, perhaps in a separate subsection. Papers must follow basic precepts of ethical research and subscribe to community norms. These include respect for privacy, secure storage of sensitive data, voluntary and informed consent if human subjects are involved or other people are placed at risk, avoiding deceptive practices when not essential, beneficence (maximizing the benefits to an individual or to society while minimizing potential harm to an individual), and risk mitigation. Authors may want to consult the Menlo Report (https://www.caida.org/publications/papers/2012/menlo_report_actual_formatte…) and the ACM ethics policy (https://www.acm.org/code-of-ethics) for further information on ethical principles, and they may find the Allman/Paxson paper in IMC 2007 (http://conferences.sigcomm.org/imc/2007/papers/imc80.pdf) helpful for a perspective on ethical data sharing. Many organizations have an ethics review process (sometimes called an Institutional Review Board, IRB). In some cases, research work may clearly have no human subjects, and formal institutional review may not be required. (However, a sentence in the paper stating this evaluation is still required.) In many cases, IRB involvement is appropriate. IRB approval of research is an important factor (and should be mentioned), but the program committee will independently evaluate the ethical soundness of the work just as they evaluate its technical soundness. The PC takes a broad view of what constitutes an ethical concern, and the PC chairs may reach out to authors during the review process if questions arise. You can contact the PC chairs at akella(a)cs.wisc.edu<mailto:akella@cs.wisc.edu> and nanditad(a)google.com<mailto:nanditad@google.com> ***Organizing Committee*** General Chairs * Fernando Kuipers, Delft University of Technology * Matthew Caesar, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Program Committee Chairs * Aditya Akella, University of Wisconsin-Madison * Nandita Dukkipati, Google Regards, Pedro Casas and Roland van Rijswijk-Deij SIGCOMM 2021 Publicity Chairs PEDRO CASAS Senior Scientist Data Science & Artificial Intelligence Center for Digital Safety & Security AIT Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH Giefinggasse 4 | 1210 Vienna | Austria T +43 50550-4104 | M +43 664 88256097 | F +43 50550-2813 pedro.casas(a)ait.ac.at<mailto:pedro.casas@ait.ac.at> | www.ait.ac.at<http://www.ait.ac.at/> FN: 115980 i HG Wien | UID: ATU14703506 www.ait.ac.at/Email-Disclaimer<http://www.ait.ac.at/Email-Disclaimer> ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Wireless networking technologies are continuously evolving and have become a critical part of modern life, be it for communication services, media distribution or sensing and actuation services within the Internet of things context. To provide users with high quality of experience in multimedia communication and distribution, especially under moderate to high utilization, appropriate resource management and architectural networking paradigms are necessary. Edge computing and data-driven artificial intelligence (AI) techniques are becoming essential tools to cope with the increasing diversity of connected devices, and the plethora of new data-intensive and latency-sensitive applications requested by end-users. At the same time, Internet of Things environments, wearable computing and sensors, support a diverse range of application domains and services, providing rich sets of measurements for characterizing, detecting, and understanding complex behaviors and systems and enabling feedback mechanisms that allow them to control such systems. IEEE WoWMoM 2021 takes a broad view and seeks papers describing innovative research contributions to the field of mobile and wireless networking and applications.
