IEEE Transactions on Intelligent Transportation Systems Special Issue on Intent-based Networking for 5G-Envisioned Internet of Connected Vehicles Link: https://static.wixstatic.com/ugd/3a8387_f232b36e50c449aa9f05797a278990c4.pdf Submission Deadline: October 1, 2019 Overview: With the recent advances in wireless communications, the automotive industry is leading to evolution. To succeed in this emerging era of technology, the Internet of Connected Vehicles (IoCV) has emerged as one of the potential applications of the Internet of Things (IoT). It refers to the dynamic mobile communication systems that communicate between vehicles and public networks to enhance the connectivity between cars via technology. By offering a wide variety of infotainment services, fleet operations, and in-vehicle applications, IoCV has gained the tremendous capacity to provide a safer and sustainable transportation system to the society. According to Gartner Inc., “the connected car is already a reality, and in-vehicle wireless connectivity is expanding rapidly”. As a result, the evolution of cars into the IoT will keep on accelerating the global market which is expected to grow by 270 percent by 2022. Further, the increasing deployment of sensors and ever-evolving cognitive technology open up new opportunities for IoCV. Due to these significant developments, connected vehicles are receiving widespread attention from the major automotive giants such as Tesla, BMW, Waymo (Google), Uber, Volvo, etc. Despite all the opportunities offered by the IoCV, their highly dynamic topology and the increasing number of vehicles pose challenges regarding delivering low-latency vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications. The fifth generation (5G) wireless networks emerge as a critical provider to handle the stringent connectivity requirements of IoCV. Moreover, with the development of massive multiple-input- multiple-output (MIMO), non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), terahertz (THz) frequencies, millimetre-wave (mmWave), and heterogeneous networks (HetNets), 5G intends to guarantee new capabilities related to connectivity, data rates, transmission delay, throughput and moreover quality of experience (QoE). Thus, integrating 5G cellular systems into IoCV is a promising technology to achieve the goal! s mentioned above. However, as we are moving towards the 5G communication era, the data generated by connected vehicles is expected to grow exponentially; which in turn brings significant challenges to 5G. Therefore, to promote productivity, improve efficiency, and ensure the efficient handling of continuous growing data, it requires the support of high computing paradigm that can process the data with minimum delays. To accomplish these objectives, a programmable and scalable network paradigm is the need of the hour that can provide a variety of services to 5G-envisioned IoCV in diversified scenarios. In this direction, software-defined networking (SDN) and network function virtualization (NFV) have gained much attention from the research fraternity. They rely more on network programmability to realize efficient network services. However, this traditional device-to-device management paradigm falls short while dealing with 5G mobile networks as it is characterized by a humongous cycle of connected devices. To overcome these problems, intent-based networking (IBN) has evolved as one of the paradigm shifts which combines automation with intelligence. Typically, IBN is composed of four essential elements namely, translation and validation, automated implementation, awareness of network state, and assurance and dynamic optimization/remediation; which takes the networking strategy to a higher level. Due to these fundamental elements, IBN holds excellent potential for reliable network support with quick turnaround and scalable services. Additionally, it also facilitates simplified network operations with seamless integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning. This, in turn, provides more opportunities to build more robust and efficient network designs for 5G-envisioned IoCV. Thus, this special issue intends to offer an opportunity for researchers (both from industry and academia) to present the dedicated efforts on the key theories, innovative schemes, and significant applications for realizing QoS in 5G-envisioned IoCV communication. This special issue mainly focuses on collecting the original contributions related to IBN-IoCV amalgamation in 5G wireless networks, which aims to provide high-performance scalable computing to connected vehicles while advancing the V2X communication infrastructure. Topics of interest to this special issue include, but are not limited to: -New opportunities/challenges/ use cases for IBN in 5G enabled IoCV -Machine learning and optimisation-based algorithms, tools and solutions -Distributed mobility management and network intelligence -New architecture and communication protocols -Innovative applications and services -MIMO/massive MIMO/millimeter wave technologies -Big data analytics and Industrial IoT Applications -Role of cloud, edge and fog computing -Secure, dependable and trustable cyber-physical systems -Privacy protection and trust management -Energy-efficient and green communication solutions -Reliability, dependability, and fault tolerance support for IBN PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: Paper submission should conform to the information for authors available at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/t-its.

The new deadline is 15th July 2019. Regards, Virginia Workshop Co-Chair **************************************************************************************************** *Call for Papers* Workshop on Smart Building and Internet of Things to be held in conjunction with the 4th IEEE International Conference on Computing, Communication & Security (ICCCS-2019 - http://www.icccs-conf.in/index.html) October 10 - October 12, 2019, Rome, Italy *Important Dates* Submission Deadline 15 July 2019 Notification of Acceptance 31 July 2019 Camera-Ready Paper Submission 20 August 2019 Date of Conference 10-12 October 2019 *Workshop Description:* Internet of Things (IoT) enables network objects of the most diverse types to dynamically cooperate and make their resources available in order to reach a common goal. Such a paradigm is currently revolutionizing a variety of fields, facilitating and improving human life and work. Among them are Smart Buildings, which are characterized by the presence of smart devices, which give the opportunity to monitor and to remotely control key equipment within buildings. In such an intelligent environment, major goals are to improve the comfort and quality of life of people and to provide decision-support tools in order to aid users in making cost-effective decisions when utilizing electrical energy. Smart Buildings integrate autonomy and adaptive control and are considered as the next generation of buildings that must be allocated in Smart Cities. Smart Building links automation, sustainable development, information technology, security, industrial controllers and communications (among other systems) to achieve an optimal level of comfort and energy consumption. As for now, the research on this topic has a sufficient degree of advancement, however several issues still remain open. Indeed, this scenario is lacking people-centric applications, where the presence of intelligent tools can augment the capabilities of the objects in constructing a relationship with the users and exploit the user profile to construct personalized services; moreover, it is important to define methodologies and algorithms to analyze and exploit the context in which the user lives and works. Based on these considerations, the objective of this workshop is to highlight recent research, development, and evaluation of novel systems in Smart Building scenarios. We are seeking for original, previously unpublished work, addressing key issues and challenges in this area. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: - Active and Collaborative Sensing in Smart Building - Behavioural and Energy Consumption Analytics - Implementation of Social IoT for Smart Building - IoT applications, systems, and testbeds for Smart Building - Models of context and context awareness - IoT for Smart Building devices and accessibility - New design paradigms in human-machine interaction for Smart Building - Cloud and mobile cloud architectures supporting Smart Building through IoT - Privacy-preserving data processing techniques - Big data, analytics, and signal processing for Smart Building enabled by an IoT approach - People-centric applications in Smart Building - Algorithms, architectures and platforms for Active and Assisted Living - Safety and Security preservation in Smart Building - Indoor location and guidance applications *Workshop Chairs* Michele Nitti, University of Cagliari, Italy Virginia Pilloni, University of Cagliari, Italy *Submission Guidelines* The submission guidelines valid for the workshop are the same as for the ICCCS conference. They can be found at http://www.icccs-conf.in/paperSubmission.html. -- ----------------------------------------- Virginia Pilloni, Ph.D DIEE, Dept. of Electrical and Electronic Engineering University of Cagliari Piazza d'Armi, 09123, Cagliari, Italy E-mail: virginia.pilloni(a)diee.unica.it Phone: +39 070 675 5762 ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
