-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Limei Peng <aurora.plm1(a)GMAIL.COM> Gesendet: 22. Juni 2020 01:03:47 MESZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: Special issue on "Advanced Networking Technologies in the Battle Against the Outbreak of Epidemic Diseases" [Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP] ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Call for papers IEEE Transaction on Network Science and Engineering, Special Issue on "Advanced Networking Technologies in the Battle Against the Outbreak of Epidemic Diseases". Deadline: 1 August 2020 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ At present, COVID-19 is a major global public health challenge. Worse, this epidemic could last for 2 years, according to US experts. To address it, scientific research institutions attempt to actively leveraged networking technologies to fight the epidemic disease, which have effectively improved the efficiency of epidemic monitoring, virus tracking, prevention, control and treatment, and resource allocation. For example, in order to make full use of the resources of medical experts, the remote consultation system, supporting live-streaming video and telemedicine by 5G, cloud computing, blockchain and other networking-related technologies, has been quickly implemented in many hospitals all over the word. Although networking technologies have played an important role in the epidemic prevention and control, new challenges arise when billions of people around the world have been ordered to stay at home to help curb the epidemic disease. As the virus spread, the networking demand for HD video conferencing and online teaching has skyrocketed. Moreover, many streaming services — like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and YouTube, have reduced the quality of their streams to reduce strain on the Internet. Therefore, more advanced networking technologies should be deeply investigated and implemented to help us with fighting COVID-19. This special issue aims to explore recent advances and disseminate state-of-the-art research on advanced networking technologies for epidemic monitoring, virus tracking, prevention, control and treatment, and resource allocation. The topics of interest for this special issue include, but are not limited to: - Advanced networking technologies in public health management - Advanced networking technologies for telemedicine, remote diagnosis and treatment - Cloud-based/Edge-based networking services for online working and learning - Stable heterogeneous networking access for medical information transmission - Edge/mobile computing for detecting and tracking infections - Mobility-aware networking services and applications for epidemic monitoring, prevention and control - Crowdsourcing-based approaches for virus testing and research - Soft caching, proactive caching and other approaches for content-orient networking services - Privacy and security of the medical information transmission The papers for rigorous and well-coordinated peer-review process will be collected through the Manuscript Central System <https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tnse-cs> for *IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering*. *Submission Guidelines* Prospective authors are invited to submit their manuscripts electronically, adhering to the *IEEE Transactions on Network Science and Engineering* guidelines <https://www.comsoc.org/publications/journals/ieee-tnse/ieee-transactions-ne…>.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE GLOBECOM 2020 Workshop on V2X Technologies and Advanced Security/Privacy (V2X&ASP), Taipei, Taiwan, December 2020

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Al-Sakib Khan Pathan <sakib.pathan(a)GMAIL.COM> Gesendet: 20. Juni 2020 18:03:12 MESZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE GLOBECOM 2020 Workshop on V2X Technologies and Advanced Security/Privacy (V2X&ASP), Taipei, Taiwan, December 2020 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ *Call For Papers* IEEE GLOBECOM 2020 Workshop on V2X Technologies and Advanced Security/Privacy (V2X&ASP) 7-11 December 2020 // Taipei, Taiwan URL: https://globecom2020.ieee-globecom.org/workshop/ws-14-workshop-v2x-technolo… Unlike existing driving and transportation frameworks, new paradigm shifts and vertical technological revolution in vehicular services have emerged toward unmanned driving, automated transportation, and connected and autonomous vehicles (CAV). In addition to equipping with advanced environmental sensing/reasoning apparatuses (e.g., high definition (HD) cameras, three-divisional (3D) panorama videos, point-cloud scanners, or light detection and ranging (LiDAR) scanners) to facilitate autonomous driving, the next-generation driving vehicles may also rely on mobile network infrastructures to achieve ubiquitous and prompt information exchanges. For example, all-optical indicators (such as turn signals and brake light on a vehicle, and traffic lights on intersections) may be replaced by wireless signals through device-to-device (D2D) transmissions. Vehicles may also exchange their perception data or maneuver plans with other vehicles, or acquire information (such as 3D scenes at interactions) from remote cloud servers or road-site units (RSUs) though mobile networks. To align with this trend, 3GPP has released the service requirements to sustain the next-generation vehicle-to-everything (V2X) applications in June 2018, which include 28 use cases to involve advanced driving, remote control, vehicle platooning and extended sensors. To support all these use cases, the service requirements of V2X may include extremely high throughput (for 3D panorama videos or point-cloud data), low latency (maneuver data for platooning), high reliability (control signals for remote driving), aperiodic transmissions (for emergency trajectory alignment), and high connection density. Since August 2018, 3GPP has launched the normative works of New Radio (NR) V2X and enhanced ultra-reliable and low latency communication (eURLLC) in 3GPP Release 16. To satisfy these unprecedented V2X requirements, several new features will be introduced in both academic research and industrial practice, including new system architecture of V2X (e.g., mobile edge computing, cloud/fog networks, 3GPP local area data network, network slicing, software-defined network, etc.), new radio access schemes (e.g., millimeter-wave access, sidelink transmissions, URLLC, massive connections), harmonization among various technologies (e.g., point-cloud compression, multi-view video, 3D vision, environmental perception/cognition, machine learning and artificial intelligent), and new designs for security. The Internet of Things evolution has given birth to several new groundbreaking applications, such as the Internet of Vehicles (IoV), smart cities, and cyber-physical systems (CPS). The proliferation of IoV-based applications magnifies the importance and irreplaceability of IoV. Considering the dynamic nature of entities in the IoV, there are a series of challenges including security, privacy, decentralization, trust management, and so on. For efficient decision making, in IoVs, we use Vehicle to Vehicle/Others (V2V/V2X) communication to complement on-board sensor inputs and provide better services. A key concern when relying on sensor data is vulnerable to data. Malicious actors tend to inject false data or alter communication among normal vehicles. The objective of this workshop is to bring together state-of-the-art innovations, research activities (both in academia and industry), and the corresponding standardization impacts of V2X for the next generation driving paradigm, to understand the inspirations, requirements, and the promising technical options to boost and enrich activities in the area of V2X. This workshop will also provide a forum for exchanging ideas and networking experts/researchers/engineers/students involved in the emerging field of V2X. We want to collate and publish consolidated research results focusing on analyzing security and privacy threats, applying cutting-edge technologies to provide secure and privacy-preserving communications in the relevant fields. Papers may present advances in the theory, design, implementation, analysis, verification, or empirical evaluation and measurement of the area. Topics of interest (include but not limited to) - Machine learning, artificial intelligence, cognition, and optimization technologies for V2X and CAV - Security issues and designs for V2X and CAV - Mobile edge computing (MEC), cloud/fog networks, 3GPP local area data network (LADN), network slicing, software-defined network (SDN) for V2X and CAV - New waveforms, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), sidelink/D2D transmissions, massive/dense connections, full-duplex radios for V2X and CAV - URLLC, machine-type communications (MTC), tactile Internet, and advanced caching for V2X and CAV - Signal processing for V2X and CAV - Point-cloud compression, multi-view video, and 3D panorama enabled technologies for V2X and CAV - Standardizations, field-trials, prototypes, deployment and performance evaluation of V2X and CAV - Secure end-to-end communication protocols in IoVs - Blockchain enabled-security solutions for IoV - Efficient secure data dissemination mechanisms for IoV - Intrusion detection technologies for IoV - New Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and services based on IoV - Optimization techniques for sustainable security solutions - Privacy-preserving data aggregation for IoV - Security in cloud-based IoV - Sustainable security solutions for electric/hybrid vehicles - Trust and reputation in IoV - SDN/NFV based security solutions for IoV Workshop Organizers: + Shih-Chun Lin, North Carolina State University, USA, slin23(a)ncsu.edu + Shao-Yu Lien, National Chung Cheng University, Taiwan, sylien(a)ccu.edu.tw + Igor Alvarado, National Instruments, USA, igor.alvarado(a)ni.com + Uttam Ghosh, Vanderbilt University, USA, ghosh.uttam(a)ieee.org + Ali Kashif Bashir, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK, dr.alikashif.b(a)ieee.org + Zhaolong Ning, Dalian University of Technology, China, zhaolongning(a)dlut.edu.cn + Joel J.
