-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE Trans. on Sustainable Computing Special Issue on Energy-Efficient Edge Computing Datum: Sun, 15 Mar 2020 22:38:36 +0000 Von: Daniel Grosu <dgrosu(a)WAYNE.EDU> Antwort an: Daniel Grosu <dgrosu(a)WAYNE.EDU> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS =============== ================================================ IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Computing Special Issue on Energy-Efficient Edge Computing ================================================ Submission deadline (EXTENDED): April 15, 2020 The future increase in the amount of data and workloads generated by Internet of Things (IoT) devices and connected sensors will lead to the necessity to move computational nodes from the cloud data centers closer to the data source, i.e., at the edge of the cloud, for reduced latency. An edge system is composed of any computing and networking resources along the path between data sources and cloud data centers. Depending on the specific computing needs, edge computing devices can use either a wireless or a wired connection to exchange messages with the data sources. IoT devices and sensors can then exploit the hierarchical structure of the edge and cloud system to analyze the collected data and provide useful information to users in a timely manner. For example, wearable sensors could use the computing resources of the user’s smartphone, laptop, or even smart vehicle to analyze the collected data. Because a large majority of edge devices are battery operated and have limited connectivity, the energy efficiency of computation becomes critical. To this end, it is important to minimize the energy consumption of all the components of an edge system, including sensors, IoT devices, edge nodes, and network devices while guaranteeing the desired performance. For this special issue we solicit original experimental, conceptual, and theoretical contributions on the following topics related to energy-efficient edge computing: - energy-aware application placement and offloading - energy-aware resource management - energy-aware data management - energy-aware edge2cloud coordination - energy-aware sensing for edge computing systems - energy-efficient hardware architectures for edge computing and devices - energy-efficient edge computing for AI applications - energy-efficient edge computing applications - edge computing powered by distributed renewable energy resources - energy-efficient vehicular edge computing - energy-efficient edge computing for autonomous robots - energy-efficient networks for edge computing Submission Guidelines: ---------------------- Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts via the online system (https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/tsusc-cs). The manuscript must follow the IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Computing author guidelines (https://www.computer.org/web/tsusc/author). When submitting the manuscript please select the special issue on Energy-Efficient Edge Computing. The submission should be original work by the authors, not be published or currently submitted for publication elsewhere. Important Dates: ---------------- Submission deadline (EXTENDED): April 15, 2020 Preliminary notification: July 15, 2020 Revision deadline: August 15, 2020 Final notification: September 15, 2020 Publication: April - June 2021 (subject to editorial calendar) Guest Co-Editors: ----------------- Daniel Grosu, Wayne State University, USA. <dgrosu(a)wayne.edu> Jiannong Cao, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong <csjcao(a)comp.polyu.edu.hk> ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] 3rd Workshop on Benchmarking Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet of Things (CPS-IoTBench) Datum: Mon, 16 Mar 2020 05:38:01 -0400 Von: Carlo Alberto Boano <cboano(a)TUGRAZ.AT> Antwort an: Carlo Alberto Boano <cboano(a)TUGRAZ.AT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers 3rd Workshop on Benchmarking Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet of Things (CPS-IoTBench'20) in conjunction with ACM MobiCom 2020 September 21-25, 2020 - London, UK https://cpsbench20.ethz.ch/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Over the last decade, research on Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT) has led to smart systems at different scales and environments, from smart homes to smart cities and smart factories. Despite many successes, it is difficult to measure and compare the utility of these results due to a lack of standard evaluation criteria and methodologies. This problem inhibits evaluation against the state-of-the-art, the comparability of different integrated designs (e.g., control and networking), and the applicability of tested scenarios to present and future real-world cyber-physical applications and deployments. This state of affairs is alarming, it significantly hinders further progress in CPS and IoT systems research. ******** TOPICS ******** The Workshop on Benchmarking Cyber-Physical Systems and Internet of Things (CPS-IoTBench) brings together researchers from the different sub-communities to engage in a lively debate on all facets of rigorously evaluating and comparing cyber-physical networks and systems. Unique to this workshop, we seek reports describing the reproduction of experimental results reported in published papers. Examples of this include researchers looking to validate another piece of work before comparing their own to it, or industrial organizations evaluating a new technology or demonstrating the robustness of their technology before customer delivery. We invite researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to submit papers focusing on one of the following topics: - describe an attempt to reproduce experimental results from published work; - identify fundamental challenges and open questions in rigorous benchmarking and evaluation of cyber-physical networks and systems; - report on success stories/failures with using standard evaluation criteria; - present example benchmark systems and approaches from any relevant community (embedded systems, networking, control, robotics, machine learning); - propose new research directions, methodologies, or tools to increase the level of reproducibility and comparability of evaluation results; - report on examples of best practices in different CPS sub-communities towards achieving the repeatability of results; - present models to capture & compare the properties of algorithms & systems; Well-reasoned arguments or preliminary evaluations are sufficient to support a paper's claims. Submitted papers must be written in English and may contain up to 6 pages, including references, figures, and tables. We will follow a double-blind reviewing process, therefore authors must anonymize their submissions. References to the authors' own previous work must not be omitted, but referred to in third person. Accepted papers will be published either on OpenReview.net or on the ACM Digital Library. ******** IMPORTANT DATES ******** - Paper submission deadline: May 15, 2020 (11:59:59PM EST) - Notification of acceptance: July 1, 2020 - Camera-ready versions: July 31, 2020 - Workshop date: September 21 or 25, 2020 ******** ORGANIZERS ******** Workshop co-organizers: - Carlo Alberto Boano (Graz University of Technology, Austria) - Michael Breza (Imperial College London, United Kingdom) - Romain Jacob (ETH Zurich, Switzerland) - Ramona Marfievici (Digital Catapult, United Kingdom) - Marco Zimmerling (TU Dresden, Germany) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of the call --------------------------------------------------------------------- ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Task offloading technology can break through the resource limitations of IoT devices, reduce the computing load and improve the task processing efficiency. Optimizing DNNs through task offloading has become a new direction in edge intelligence research. Deep learning driven approaches can facilitate offloading decision making, dynamic resource allocation and content caching, benefit in coping with the growth in volumes of communication and computation for emerging IoT applications. However, how to customize deep learning techniques for task offloading in IoTs is still under discussion. Learning algorithms in edge computing are still immature and inefficient. The goal of the IOIoT Workshop is devoted to the most recent developments of intelligent offloading technologies for IoT and and edge computing. Industry experience reports and empirical studies are also welcome. We aim to bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss the latest advancements and identify further challenges for task offloading in IoTs that must be overcome. The topics of the workshop include but not limited to: Computing Paradigm Frontiers: Edge Computing, Fog Computing, Cloud Computing that assisted with AI Theories, Scenarios and Applications: Learning-based approaches for Learning-based approaches: Intelligent decision making for task offloading, resource allocation, profiling, modelling, content caching, cyber-security, and privacy in IoTs Design, Development and Architecture: New AI-based theories, scenarios and applications for application placement, computation offloading or data offloading in IoTs Performance Modelling and Evaluation: Deep learning driven latency and energy consumption model of task offloading; Joint communication and computation optimization for emerging IoT applications Optimization Algorithms: Joint communication and computation optimization for emerging IoT applications Sustainable and Green Computing: Intelligent resource management and scheduling; DNN-based applications partitioning in IoTs Submission Submitted manuscripts must be formatted in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font) and as PDF files (formatted for 8.5x11-inch paper).

In order for these technologies to be accepted by laypersons, they must be user-friendly. This is made possible by increasingly sophisticated human-machine interfaces of today's information and communication (ICT) systems. Such systems, on the one hand, communicate with humans, on the other hand they require external services which they obtain from a globally networked environment. Therefore, "communication" in such settings refers to both the communication between technical systems as well as the communication between ICT systems and humans. While the reliance on external services offers great opportunities for the development and deployment of adaptive algorithms, it also comes with risks, both for security and safety. The challenges inherent in this research area cover various disciplines of computer science ranging from embedded systems, systems engineering, telecommunication, mobile computing, computational theory, cryptography, computer graphics and computer vision to artificial intelligence. The SENSYBLE workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners from various disciplines of computer science who work in the area of enhancing living environments with information and communication technologies. It is organized by the SENSYBLE doctoral college, a joint research initiative by the Computer Science and Mathematics department of the Goethe-University / Frankfurt am Main and the department of Design, Computer Science, Media (DCSM) of the RheinMain University of Applied Sciences / Wiesbaden. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following topics: * Self-X properties (self-organization, self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing, self-protection, self-integration) * Cryptography for authenticity, integrity and anonymity * Safe and secure embedded systems * Multi-modal data analytics * Multisensor and evolutionary user interfaces and embodied interaction * Visualization and usability aspects of self-organizing systems * Internet of Things and Middleware for context-sensitive, adaptive services * Engineering of distributed smart systems * Software engineering and business aspects of smart system development * Applications, e.g. intelligent assistive systems for health care Submissions that focus on a holistic view and vertical integration aspects of smart systems for better living environments are particularly welcome. Visit for further details. <http://www.cs.hs-rm.de/~kaiser/events/sensyble20/> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Co-Located with INFORMATIK 2020* SENSYBLE 2020 is a workshop held at the 50th Informatiktagung 2020, the annual conference and the most important meeting point of the Gesellschaft fuer Informatik (GI) e.V., the largest computer science association in the German-speaking world.

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Ramona Marfievici <ramona.marfievici(a)ALUMNI.UNITN.IT> Gesendet: 9. März 2020 17:28:34 MEZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [NewNets 2020] Call for Papers Call for Papers 2nd Workshop on Emerging Technologies and Trends in Engineering Low-Power Networks (NewNets - co-located with WoWMoM) June 15-18, 2020 - Cork, Ireland https://newnets2020.github.io/ AIMS AND SCOPE A founding pillar of the IoT concept is the availability of low-cost low-power devices with wireless technologies providing sensing, communication, and actuation. In the past decade, the research community have produced proven solutions to build low-power mesh networks. Traditionally, the focus has been on short-range radio communication (e.g., ZigBee, Bluetooth, and ZWave.). An appealing alternative that have gained momentum in the IoT landscape, is to equip the nodes with long-range low power radio modules. As a result, long-range radio communication technologies (e.g., SigFox, LoRa, NB-IoT, and 802.15.4g) are considered as candidate technologies for many low-power wide area network (LPWAN) applications, especially those that require extended coverage such as citywide sensing, environmental monitoring, or remote infrastructure monitoring. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the field of IoT from both academia and industry, to discuss and explore short- and long-range solutions, the tradeoffs between these two paradigms, as well as how they can be used in synergy. In order to push the state of the art, several points need to be addressed: new features for the long-range technologies (i.e., over-the-air updates, roaming), radio resource management, regulations and policies on spectrum usage and sharing, business case analysis that are more well suited for certain vertical markets. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - protocol design - hardware platform design - modeling and analysis of low-power short or/and long-range communication - reliability, adaptability, and dependability of short and long-range communication solutions - new features for the long-range technologies (i.e., over-the-air updates, roaming) - wake-up radios for short- or/and long-range technologies - radio resource management - applications domains (e.g., smart cities, smart health, smart buildings, smart transportation) - deployment experiences, case studies, and lessons learned - evaluation and testbeds - regulations and policies on spectrum usage and sharing - business case analysis that are more well suited for certain vertical markets. SUBMISSION AND FORMATTING Submitted papers must contain between 4 and 6 single spaced U.S. letter pages, including all figures, tables, and references. All submissions must be written in English.
