-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Kuvs-l] Call for NetSys 2021 PhD Forum & Early Work Track (March 8 - 11, Lübeck, Germany) Submission Deadline Early Work: October 16 PhD Forum Participation: December 18 Datum: Tue, 1 Sep 2020 21:30:41 +0200 Von: Oliver Hohlfeld <oliver.hohlfeld(a)b-tu.de> An: kuvs-l(a)lists.gi.de Call for NetSys 2021 PhD Forum March 8 till March 11, 2021 – Lübeck, Germany https://netsys2021.org/calls/cf-ewphd The PhD Forum at the Networked Systems 2021 follows the tradition and format of similar events at international conferences such as ICNP, PerCom, or UbiComp. The aim is twofold. First, it should provide PhD students in any phase of their career with an opportunity to discuss the hidden secrets behind doing a PhD and general career advice – topics that are rarely openly discussed (e.g., finding research problems, managing your supervisor, …) - during the PhD Forum on Monday. Second, it additionally provides PhD students the option to present their early work as poster and to discuss it with experts to gain general technical feedback during the Early Work Presentation taking place at the main conference. Beyond, attending 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?* *PhD Forum: The hidden secrets when doing your PhD* This is a dedicated meeting on Monday before the main conference, full of discussions and fun with your direct peers and us. The aim of the PhD Forum is the discussion of meta aspects and experiences regarding a PhD – the hidden secrets when doing your PhD and general career advice. Potential topics will be: - Deep PhD study in the time of digital distraction - Having a family + doing a PhD – are you crazy? - Continuously improving my skills: e.g., speed reading and ultra learning - Doctoral supervision: being supervised and being a supervisor - Best paper stories: targeting high and being rejected - Academic peer review: what are factors that determine paper acceptance / rejection and why are some of them random? - How dare you to steal my contributions?! Working in teams and writing a PhD thesis - Working internationally - Becoming a team leader and how to find good students - Hints on writing papers and making presentations – please don’t overload To tailor the discussion of meta aspects to your interest, attendance requires the submission of input in advance (e.g., questions on which we will organize the day) mentioned in the call below. As done at NetSys 2019, we will also invite keynote speakers who will report about their research journey from a PhD student to a leading expert. *Early Work Poster Presentation:* In addition to the PhD Forum, an early work poster presentation of selected participants will take place during a poster session at the main conference. A brief introduction of the topics (One-Minute-Madness) during the main conference program is used to attract attention of conference participants to this early work poster session. The PhD Forum + Early Work Poster Presentation are special opportunities to discuss research plans and results face-to-face with professors and senior researchers in individual groups outside the own lab. *What should I submit – One Forum but Two Calls!* *Call PhD Forum attendance (always required):* The first call concerns the participation at the PhD Forum on Monday that focuses on discussing meta aspects concerning the PhD process (e.g., research, publication strategies, time management, …). If you plan to attend on Monday, submit to this call (no poster abstract required). If you plan to also submit an Early Work Poster Presentation (see next call), you must also submit to this call in addition. *What to submit:* Prospective participants should prepare an application that includes the following information: - Curriculum Vitae: a brief CV that lists the education and research interests of the PhD student. - A motivational letter (~1 page): the motivational letter should discuss the following aspects in the following order: - Motivation: why do do want to attend the PhD Forum and what do you expect from it? (1 paragraph) - Your research area and the specific problem that you would think to work on. (1 paragraph) - Questions you would like to discuss at the PhD Forum (e.g., how to find a good research problem, how to manage time, how to manage your supervisor, …). We will structure the PhD Forum on Monday around discussing your questions (>3 questions) Submission should be done electronically as PDF, via https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=netsys2021 *Call Early Work Poster Presentation (optional, but expected for more experienced (> 1 year) PhD students):* For more experienced PhD students (> 1 year of their PhD) that want to present their preliminary work during our poster and madness session during the main conference. Note, however, also fresh PhD students can submit an early work proposal. *Student research competition:* We will award the best early work poster presentation (i.e., madness presentation and poster). The early work submissions will be peer reviewed by experts from the main conference. Submission implies that the PhD student registered for the PhD forum. That is, when submitting an early work poster, you must additionally have submitted to the PhD Forum call for attendance before (see above). Submission should be done electronically as PDF, via https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=netsys2021 *Submission Guidelines for Early Work Poster Presentation* All early work poster presentation submissions must be original, unpublished, and not considered elsewhere for publication. Early work submissions are limited to 4 pages including figures and tables (at least 10pt font, one-column format) plus 1 page for references. LaTeX and Microsoft Word templates, as well as formatting instructions, are available online here. Accepted and presented extended abstracts will be published in the conference proceeding. Submission implies that at least one author will register and attend the conference to present the poster. *Important Dates:* *Call Early Work Poster submissions* - Registration & submission: Friday, October 16, 2020 - Notification of acceptance: Monday, November 30, 2020 *Call PhD Forum submissions:* - Registration & submission: Friday, December 18, 2020 - Notification of acceptance: Friday, January 15, 2021 - PhD Forum: Monday, March 3, 2020 *PhD Forum Chairs* - Andreas Blenk – Technical University of Munich, Germany/University of Vienna, Faculty of Computer Science, Austria - Oliver Hohlfeld – Brandenburg University of Technology (BTU), Germany _______________________________________________ KUVS-L mailing list -- kuvs-l(a)lists.gi.de To unsubscribe send an email to kuvs-l-leave(a)lists.gi.de

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] ACM HotMobile 2021 CFP: The 22nd Annual International Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications, Cyberspace, February 24-26,2021 Datum: Mon, 31 Aug 2020 00:16:40 -0400 Von: Yufei Sun <yufeisun369(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Yufei Sun <yufeisun369(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG [Apologies if you got multiple copies of this invitation] The 22nd Annual International Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications (ACM HotMobile 2021) *https://hotmobile.org/2021/ <https://hotmobile.org/2021/>* Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE February 24-26, 2021 Cyberspace *Call for Papers* ACM HotMobile 2021, the Twenty-second International Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications continues the series of highly selective, interactive workshops focused on mobile applications, systems, and environments, as well as their underlying state-of-the-art technologies. HotMobile's small workshop format makes it ideal for presenting and discussing new directions or controversial approaches. We solicit submissions of papers that (1) focus primarily on systems and applications and (2) propose new directions of research, advocate non-traditional approaches to old (or new) ideas, or generate controversy and discussion. We especially encourage papers that identify fundamental open questions, advocate a new approach, offer a constructive critique of the state-of-the-art, debunk existing assumptions, report unexpected early results, 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 suffice. The program committee will explicitly favor early work and papers likely to stimulate reflection and discussion over a “6-pages conference paper.” We take a broad view of Mobile Systems research. This includes: · Novel applications, environments, and devices supporting mobility. · Operating system and distributed system support for mobile computing. · Wearable computing, internet of things, edge computing, sensing, and context-awareness. · HCI issues related to mobile computing. · Security and privacy of mobile computing. · Management, configuration, and deployment of systems supporting mobility. · Wireless technology, as it pertains to mobile systems and applications. *·* *Mobile and wireless technologies on lessening or resolving various issues related to COVID-19 and future similar epidemics/pandemics.* Important dates : · Deadline for submissions *October 30, 2020, 11:59pm EDT* · Acceptance notification *December** 23, 2020* Presenting at HotMobile is a good way to get early feedback on research ideas at least one year away from a full-fledged conference submission to ACM MobiSys or other high-quality conferences. A full-length paper on the same topic submitted to a conference in less than a year is unlikely to include sufficient new material and mature ideas to warrant publication. As is customary, papers must not have been published elsewhere and may not be simultaneously under submission at another venue. Papers accompanied by nondisclosure agreement forms are not acceptable and will be returned to the author(s) unread. As customary with the scientific peer review process, submissions will be handled as confidential material during the review. Submissions should contain 6 or fewer U.S. letter pages in PDF format, including all references, figures and tables. The submissions should not be anonymous. The submissions must meet the following formatting requirements: · Font size no smaller than 10pt. · Font size of the bibliography no smaller than 9pt. · Double column format with each column having dimensions 9.25 inches x 3.33 inches, a space of 0.33 inches between the two columns, and with no more than 55 lines of text per column. · Fit properly on US letter-sized paper (8.5 inches x 11 inches). We recommend the use of the "sigconf" ACM proceedings template, available at: http://www.acm.org/, with the font size of the main body amended to 10pt. An example Tex document can be found here. For more submission guidelines, please visit the conference website. Please note that it is the responsibility of the authors to ensure that the submissions are meeting all formatting requirements. The papers accepted to HotMobile 2021 will be publicly available from the workshop's website for a limited time window, as per ACM's Digital Library's Policy. --- HotMobile in the Time of COVID-19--- We have been closely monitoring the progress of COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on conferences and travel restrictions. As much as we prefer to hold in-person conferences, the safety and well-being of the community is our top priority. Therefore, we would like to announce that ACM HotMobile 2021 has been decided to be taking place entirely virtual. With the change, we will also be able to offer a very low registration fee while you worry less about travel restrictions/costs. Please do not hesitate to contribute your latest research result to the workshop! Stay safe, and we look forward to receiving your submissions.
