In 2021, IoTDI will be held for the sixth time, and will be part of CPS-IoT WEEK 2021 being organized in Nashville, Tennessee, USA. A confluence of technological advances marks the advent of a new era. World data volume is growing at an unprecedented pace, much of it from embedded devices. Smart cities are expected to grow, fed by millions of data points from multitudes of human and physical sources. Cyber-attacks grow more nefarious, bringing down physical systems. Social networks are becoming ubiquitous, offering information on physical things. The separation between cyber, physical, and social systems is blurring. Collectively, these developments lead to the emergence of a new field, where the networking and physical realms meet. It is the field of the Internet of Things (IoT). This conference is an interdisciplinary forum to discuss challenges, technologies, and emerging directions in system design and implementation that pertain to IoT. This conference invites researchers and practitioners from academia, industry and government, and accepts original, previously unpublished work on a range of topics related to IoT. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Analytic foundations and theory of IoT * Reliability, security, timeliness, and robustness in IoT systems * Novel protocols and network abstractions * Data streaming architectures and machine learning analytics for IoT * IoT-motivated cyber-physical and Industrial IoT (IIoT) systems * Novel quality requirements and their enforcement mechanisms * Cloud back-ends and resource management for IoT applications * Edge and fog computing * Personal, wearable, and other embedded networked front-ends * Social computing and human-in-the-loop issues * Applications domains (e.g., smart cities, smart health, smart buildings, smart transportation) * Deployment experiences, case studies & lessons learned * Evaluation and testbeds * AI/ML for IoT & Embedded Systems * Energy/Power Management & Harvesting for IoT Platforms Accepted papers of particular merit will be invited to submit an extended version to the IEEE IoT Journal (IoT-J).

-------- 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, 19 Oct 2020 09:02:27 -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.

Abowd, Yoshihiro Kawahara, Lucy Dunne Title and abstracts due: 17 November 2020 (email pvc3-2021(a)computer.org) Full manuscripts due: 1 December 2020 (via mc.manuscriptcentral.com/pc- Publication: July-September 2021 Mark Weiser’s initial inspirational words about computing technologies of the 21st century were that “they weave themselves into the fabric of everyday life until they are indistinguishable from it.’’ This was meant metaphorically, but 30 years removed from the early days of ubiquitous computing, we see that our technological advances have enabled the development of computational artifacts that address three major challenges: power, manufacturing cost, and physical form factor. Gregory D. Abowd recently referred to the possibility of an Internet of Materials based on computational materials. This special issue seeks articles that address this general vision, with potential areas of focus including: • Self-sustainable computing and interaction technologies • eTextiles • On the body • Tangible computing artifacts • Alternative manufacturing of computing via additive techniques or nano-manufacturing • Conformable electronics • Printed electronics • Organic electronics • Mechanical meta-materials • Power-savvy computational architectures • Energy-harvesting techniques Submission Guidelines Articles submitted to IEEE Pervasive Computing should not exceed 6,000 words, including all text, abstract, keywords, bibliography, biographies, and table text. The word count must include 250 words for each table and figure. References should be limited to at most 20 citations (40 for survey papers). Authors are encouraged, but not required, to use a template for submission (accepted articles will ultimately be typeset by magazine staff for publication). View the Author Information page.

Recent works have demonstrated the challenges of coordinating multiple robots in order to deploy robot networks with self-configuration and self-healing capabilities to guarantee service continuity, also in case of failures. Starting from the unique requirements of a multi robot system, Swarm Robotics is a complex approach that requires an understanding of how to define distributed systems to define self-organization behaviors. Swarm Robotics studies how to make robots collaborate and collectively solve a task where every robot contributes to the general task sharing the same higher-level objectives. To this end, communication wireless networks must be specifically designed in order to support the cooperation and collaboration inside the swarm. This workshop invites original research articles and review articles that focus on communication networking problems in swarm robotics. =========================== TOPICS =========================== - Communication Models and Protocols for Swarm Robotics - Delay-Tolerant Applications for Swarm Robotics - Fog and Edge Computing in Swarm Robotics - 5G Integration with Swarm Robotics - Integration of Unmanned Aerial, Ground, and Underwater Vehicles in Swarm Robotics - Localization, Navigation, and Dynamic Path Planning in Swarm Robotics - Cooperative Control of Multiple Robots - Security and Privacy in Swarm Robotics - The Internet of Things (IoT) in Swarm Robotics - Swarm Intelligence and Nature-Inspired Algorithm in Swarm Robotics - Artificial Intelligence Applications in Swarm Robotics - Continual Learning and Adaptation for Swarm Robotics =========================== IMPORTANT DATES =========================== - Submission extended deadline: November 6th, 2020 - Notification: November 23rd, 2020 - Camera ready: December 14th, 2020 - Workshop Day: January 9th, 2021 =========================== FEATURES =========================== - Best Paper Award (BPA) sponsored by the Technology Innovation Institute (TII) with a cash prize of 1,000 Euro - Best-selected papers related to mobile fog and edge computing applied to drone swarm will be invited to submit an extended paper to the Special Issue on “Mobile Fog and Edge Computing in Drone Swarms”, MDPI Drones journal - Best-selected papers related to swarm robotics will be invited to submit an extended paper to the Special Issue on “Recent Advances in Swarm Robotics”, MDPI Applied Sciences journal =========================== ORGANIZING COMMITTEE =========================== General Chairs: - Angelo Trotta, University of Bologna, Italy - Gökhan Seçinti, Istanbul Technical University, Turkey - Nicola Roberto Zema, University of Paris-Saclay, France - Zhangyu Guan, University at Buffalo, USA Technical Program Committee - Atakan Aral, Vienna University of Technology, Austria - Berk Canberk, Istanbul Technical University, Turkey - Brian M.
