As a recent and relevant example, deployments of 5G communication networks will soon enter their second phase, during which the network infrastructure will require upgrades to support new Ultra-Reliable services with availabilities of up to 6 nines. Similarly, disaster resiliency in communication networks is now attracting the attention of media, government and industry as never before (consider, e.g., the worldwide network traffic deluge to support remote working during the current Coronavirus pandemic!). Luckily, several new technical directions can be leveraged to provide new solutions for network reliability as (just to name a few): increased network reconfigurability enabled by Software Defined Networking (SDN); integration/convergence of multiple technologies (optical, wireless satellite, datacenter networks); enhanced forms of data/service replication, supported by, e.g., edge computing; network slicing, used to carve highly-reliable logical partitions of network, computing and storage resources. These, and many others, technological transformations can be leveraged to enable next-generation high-reliability networks. Given the strong interest in both industry and academia towards reliability of telecom networks and cloud-computing infrastructures, we organize an IEEE TNSM special issue that aims at timely publication of recent and innovative research results on this important topic. This special issue is organized in collaboration with the International Conference on the Design of Reliable Communication Networks (DRCN), held in Milan in March this year. DRCN is a well-established forum for scientists from both industry and academy who have interest in reliability and availability of communication networks. As such, this special issue will also invite top-scored DRCN papers to share excellent results and new challenges in the field of reliable communication networks and services. We welcome submissions addressing important challenges (see the non-exhaustive list of topics below) and presenting novel research or experimentation results. Survey papers that offer a perspective on related work and identify key challenges for future research will be considered as well. We look forward to your submissions! About the special issue Topics of interest for this special issue, include, but are not limited to the following: * Resilience in 5G networks and services * Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) * Design of resilient and reliable IoT systems * Resilience in Software-Defined Networking (SDN) * Secure and reliable quantum communication * Resilient communication networks for the smart grid * Resilience in satellite communication networks * High-availability for Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) infrastructures * Dependability and reliability of cloud/wireless/cellular/mobile/datacenter networks * Resilience in FSO/VLC communications * Survivability and traffic engineering for optical, IP and multi-layer/multi-domain networks * Survivability in grid and distributed computing * Recovery of overlay and peer-to-peer networks * Risk and reliability in the Internet and enterprise networks * Communication reliability for smart city applications and intelligent transport systems * Methods for survivable network and systems design, analysis and operation * Planning and optimization of reliable networks, systems, and services * Machine learning for reliable design of communication networks * Reliable Federated Learning * AI empowered reliable autonomous driving and intelligent transportation * Security of cyber physical and networked control systems * Reliable design of networked control systems * Highly available softwarized infrastructure * Reliable communications in the era of beyond 5G/6G systems * Failure management based on AI/Machine Learning techniques * Data analytics and Machine Learning for fault diagnosis * Network coding techniques to improve resilience * Quality of Experience (QoE) and network service availability assessments * Reliability requirements and metrics for users, businesses, and the society * Resilience of networked critical infrastructures * Network robustness to natural disasters * Robust network design for hostile environments * Security issues in networks and their relation to survivability * Network dependability and energy consumption trade-offs * Network resilience combined with economics and commercial issues * Public policy issues for survivability and resilience Submission format Papers will be evaluated based on their originality, presentation, relevance and contribution to the field of design and management of reliable communication networks, as well as their overall quality and suitability for the special issue.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] ACM HotMobile 2021 Final CFP: February 24-26, 2021, Cyberspace Datum: Thu, 29 Oct 2020 13:10:56 -0400 Von: Yufei Sun <yufeisun369(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Yufei Sun <yufeisun369(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG The 22nd Annual International Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications (ACM HotMobile 2021) https://hotmobile.org/2021/ <https://hotmobile.org/2020/> 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. The deadline for submissions is November 6, 2020, 11:59pm EDT. Acceptance notifications will be sent by 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.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [cfp] IEEE Consumer Electronics Magazine: Special Issue on Consumer, Commercial, and Industrial IoT Security and Resilience Datum: Sun, 25 Oct 2020 10:36:49 -0400 Von: Harrys Konstantinou <char.konstantinou(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Harrys Konstantinou <char.konstantinou(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear colleagues and members, This is a CFP announcement for the IEEE Consumer Electronics Magazine on a Special Issue on Consumer, Commercial, and Industrial IoT Security and Resilience. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The Internet-of-Things (IoT) paradigm includes the interconnection of sensing, communication, and computing embedded systems. Such technologies are able to collect and analyze data as well as interact over a network towards more efficient and reliable applications and services in the areas like smart grids, smart cities, healthcare systems, and smart homes, while considering the resource-constraint devices in terms of energy, bandwidth and memory that drive the IoT infrastructure. Due to the large number of heterogeneous IoT systems interacting and working under cyberphysical environments, the IoT ecosystem covers the subset of consumer, commercial, and industrial IoT domains. Although these sectors and technologies of IoT solutions share common technologies (e.g., cloud computing, sensing, analytics), they have certain differences in terms of their service model, criticality level, connectivity, impact, data volume, etc. Among such parameters, security and resilience of consumer, commercial, and industrial IoT solutions are critical considering the needs of the domain they are deployed. Driven by the growing number of cybersecurity threats that threaten IoT technologies including devices, protocols, and their interfaces as well as the requirement of developing IoT solutions able to be operate resiliently in the event of adverse events, the purpose of this special issue is to provide the academic and industrial communities a venue covering all aspects of state-of-the-art approaches, methods, and systems at the crossing of consumer, commercial, and industrial IoT and security/resilience, to advance their joint applications. Topics of interest for this Special Section include but are not limited to the following: Artificial Intelligence in IoT security/resilience Secure, reliable, resilient, and interoperable IoT Cross-domain trust, privacy, and management methods IoT in modeling, simulation, assessment platforms, and cyberphysical systems Economic analysis of IoT security/resilience Theoretical and innovative security techniques Intelligent control strategies for attack detection and prevention Access control and anomaly detection Secure networking, protocol, and computing architectures Data analytics and efficient data sharing Submission Procedure: All original manuscripts or revisions to the IEEE Consumer Electronics Magazine must be submitted electronically through IEEE Manuscript Central, https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cemag.
