-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] 3rd International Workshop on Very Large Internet of Things (VLIoT 2019) Datum: Thu, 4 Apr 2019 06:51:59 -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 International Workshop on Very Large Internet of Things (VLIoT 2019) In conjunction with VLDB 2019 August 30, 2019, Los Angeles, USA Submission deadline (extended!): May 2, 2019 Web: http://www.ifis.uni-luebeck.de/~groppe/vliot ******************************************************************** ** Aims of the Workshop ** An increasing number of real-world objects are becoming accessible and manageable through the Internet. According to CISCO, the number of these devices will reach 50 billion by 2020, forming a very large Internet of Things (VLIoT). This massive number of "smart" objects will cooperate with each other, have their own metadata, and may continuously produce new data (in form of events, sensor data, or actuator states). Data management will be a major challenge in the very large Internet of Things. Hence, efficient IoT infrastructure and technologies must be developed to handle masses of IoT data with high performance. This will include: new techniques to filter and store relevant data; efficient replication approaches for objects with constrained resources in order to increase availability and durability; new protocols for voting about decisions among objects; and smooth integration of heterogeneous objects. The goal of this workshop is to bring together academic researchers and industry practitioners working in the field of IoT and to allow them to report and exchange their findings addressing these challenges. This workshop also intends to discuss other closely-related technologies such as Nanotechnology, Fog-, Edge-, and Dew-Computing for IoT. The ideas of Fog, Edge and Dew Computing may indeed solve or attenuate the problems of a very large Internet of Things (w.r.t. performance, energy-efficiency, as well as security and privacy aspects). ** Types of Papers ** The workshop welcomes contributions describing original ideas, promising new concepts, and practical experience. In particular, we solicit papers of different types: - Research Papers proposing new approaches, theories or techniques related to the Internet of Things, including new data structures, algorithms, whole systems, and frameworks. They should make substantial theoretical and empirical contributions to the research field. - Experiments and Analysis Papers focusing on the experimental evaluation of existing approaches including data structures and algorithms for Internet of Things and bring new insights through the analysis of these experiments. Results of experiments and analysis papers can be, for example, showing benefits of well-known approaches in new settings and environments, opening new research problems by demonstrating unexpected behavior or phenomena, or comparing a set of traditional approaches in an experimental survey. - Application Papers reporting practical experiences on Internet of Things applications. Application papers might describe specific application domains in the IoT such as smart homes/offices/cities, continuous health care, waste management, emergency response, intelligent response, and Industry 4.0. - Vision Papers identifying emerging or future research issues and directions, and describing new research visions in the IoT area that may have a great impact on our society. ** Topics of Interest ** We welcome papers on the following and other relevant topics: - Semantic IoT - Privacy-by-design and security-by-design in IoT - System architectures for IoT, e.g. - things-centric, - data-centric, - event-centric, and - service-centric. - IoT applications including: - smart homes/offices/cities, - waste management, - health care, - emergency response, and - intelligent shopping. - Nano Technology including: - Nano Networks, - Nano communication, - Nano applications, - Nano computing, and - Internet of Nano Things. - IoT programming toolkits and frameworks - IoT prototypes and evaluation test-beds - IoT data mining and analytics - IoT management and interoperability - Management of IoT streams - Enabling technologies and standards for the IoT - Spatial and temporal reasoning for IoT - Sustainability of IoT platforms, e.g. business models for deployment and maintenance - Societal challenges and IoT, e.g. urban planning and decision-making tools - Ownership of data in IoT scenarios - Fog, Edge and Dew Computing for IoT - IoT benchmarks and performance measurement - Indexing and search in IoT environments - IoT transactions, concurrency control and recovery - Hardware accelerators and energy savers for IoT applications and core infrastructure - IoT discovery of devices, services and data ** Workshop Chairs ** - Sven Groppe, University of Luebeck, Germany - Markus Endler, PUC Rio, Brasil ** Program Committee ** - Lorena Etcheverry, Universidad de la Republica, Uruguay - Mirian Halfeld Ferrari, Universite d' Orleans, France - Hemant Purohit, George Mason University, USA - Jonathan Fuerst, NEC Labs Europe, Heidelberg, Germany - Abdessamad Imine, INRIA-LORIA Nancy Grand-Est, France - Peiquan Jin, University of Science and Technology of China, China - Verena Kantere, University of Ottawa - Abdelmajid Khelil, Landshut University of Applied Sciences, Germany - Jan Lindstroem, MariaDB Corporation, Finland - Uden Lorna, Staffordshire University, UK - Riccardo Martoglia, University di Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy - Luis Munoz, University of Cantabria, Spain - Elaheh Pourabbas, National Research Council of Italy, Italy - Francisco Jose da Silva e Silva, Federal University of MaranhĂ£o (UFMA), Brazil - Mu-Chun Su, National Central University, Taiwan - Marco Vieira, University of Coimbra, Portugal - Yingwei Wang, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada ** Important Dates ** Submission (extended): May 2, 2019 Notification: May 31, 2019 Workshop: August 30, 2019 ** Submission ** Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that are not being considered for publication in any other forum.

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Vincenzo Sciancalepore <vincenzo.sciancalepore(a)NECLAB.EU> Gesendet: 2. April 2019 17:21:48 MESZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] iFIRE - ACM MobiHoc 2019 - Deadline approaching soon Dear all, I trust this email finds you well. Please consider submitting your original research papers to iFIRE---an ACM workshop co-located with ACM MobiHoc 2019---in the wonderful city of Catania (Italy). Hereafter you can find more details. Deadline: April, 7 2019!! Vincenzo iFIRE - ACM Workshop on innovative aerial communication solutions for FIrst REsponders network in emergency scenarios Co-located with ACM MobiHoc 2019 July 2, 2019, Catania, Italy http://ifire.neclab.eu <http://ifire.neclab.eu/> Call for Papers ===================== The public safety is a timely topic that has showed its paramount importance after the major human-driven and natural disasters witnessed during the last few years. According to the American Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, the majority of the victims in many different scenarios are untrained rescuers and even professional first responders. Accurate information gathered from sensors may allow first-responders and volunteers to make better and faster decisions, understand the situation, identify the rescue actions with higher success probability, correctly allocate resources such as number of ambulances, and prevent or mitigate personal risks. Today, even commonly available technologies, such as cellular phones, could save many lives if properly adopted. There is a compelling need of exploring the feasibility of new technologies, explicitly designed for working in emergency scenarios. Recently in this wide context, the aerial communication has significantly progressed due to longer battery life-time, new international law regulations and microelectronics evolution with lower prices and higher performance. In particular, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) can easily and quickly reach far-away locations, scan carefully the area looking for injured people and autonomously create a communication bridge between first responder networks and victims. However, there are several unaddressed challenges on both communication and computational means that might further improve the reactiveness and efficiency of the first response after a natural disaster or human-driven threat. The workshop is focused on main upcoming activities about the involvement of UAVs as emergency communication means during emergency situations. It is open to both scientific and industrial communities, and will disclose the latest research achievements in the research field of fine-grained localization, advanced communication between moving objects and optimal UAV-cell coverage. The main motivation is to gather people involved in public safety innovative actions, encompassing both the mathematical frameworks and realistic solutions to bring intelligence and efficiency on board of UAVs. The scope of the workshop includes (but is not limited to) the following topics: - Integration of aerial recovery networks in 5G New Radio (5G-NR) - Design and Implementation of self-organized aerial networks for disaster recovery - Mobility and traffic predictions for Disaster recovery networks - Edge and Fog computing for the Disaster recovery aerial networks - Energy management strategies for public safety networks - Trajectory planning and handover management for public safety aerial networks - Network slicing for aerial public safety networks to support low-latency response - Advanced localization technique using UAVs - Age-of-Information aware scheduling for public safety networks - Dynamic spectrum allocation and overlay network formation for public safety networks - Mobility diversity enhancement mechanisms for UAV networks - Experimental case-studies and simulation frameworks for public safety networks - Performance characterization for aerial public safety networks.

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Nicholas Kolokotronis <nkolok(a)UOP.GR> Gesendet: 31. März 2019 15:11:51 MESZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] 2019 IEEE SERVICES Workshop on Cyber Security and Resilience in the Internet of Things (Deadline Approaching) Dear colleagues, please accept our apologies for cross-postings. =================================================================================== C a l l F o r P a p e r s IEEE SERVICES Workshop on Cyber Security and Resilience in the Internet of Things Milan, Italy, July 8-13, 2019 http://conferences.computer.org/services/2019/workshops/cybersecurity_works… =================================================================================== DESCRIPTION & SCOPE ------------------- The technological and industrial revolution brought by the Internet of Things (IoT) comes with new forms of threats and attacks that exploit the inherent complexity and heterogeneity of IoT networks. There are many recent examples of attacks that exploit IoT devices to perform large-scale distributed denial of service attacks, to spy on people, and to hijack communication links, therefore delivering full control of anything that is remotely accessible to an attacker. Those attacks deeply affect the operation of a number of services that are vital for the society functioning as energy, transport, communications, and so on. Moreover, IoT is largely used in monitoring activities of complex systems as smart city, industrial plant, health systems, bridges, and so forth. Because of that, if an IoT system experiences an attack, it should still exhibit resilience in the form of grateful degradation and/or survival and fast recovery (bounce-back/bounce-forward) of the functionality from the eventual failure or misbehavior. IoT resilience is here to understand the strategies and methods for a cyber-attack absorption and infrastructure operational recovery and needs to be considered as an integral part of the IOT Cyber Security landscape. The workshop focuses on both the theoretical & practical aspects of the security, privacy, trust and resilience of IoT networks, devices, applications, and services as well as novel ways of dealing with their vulnerabilities and mitigating sophisticated cyber-attacks.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: SPECTS 2019 - IEEE ComSoc Sponsored - July 22-24, 2019, Berlin, Germany. Deadline Approaching Datum: Fri, 29 Mar 2019 13:51:33 +0200 Von: George T. Karetsos <karetsos(a)cs.ntua.gr> Antwort an: George T. Karetsos <karetsos(a)cs.ntua.gr> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG 2019 International Symposium on Performance Evaluation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems http://atc.udg.edu/SPECTS2019/ The goal of this annual conference is to provide a forum for professionals and researchers to discuss and disseminate the most promising contributions on performance evaluation of computer and telecommunication systems. Papers describing results of theoretic and/or practical significance are solicited. Experimental, modeling, analysis, and simulation studies as well as testbed deployment, field trials and experiences gained are all in the scope of the conference. Work presenting novel performance evaluation methods or providing insights on design and runtime tradeoffs are particularly encouraged. Papers and tutorials are solicited in (but not limited to) the following subjects of interest: Networking Technologies and Telecommunication Systems Future Internet and next Generation Networking 5G & Beyond Hyperdense networks Massive MIMO mm Wave communications Multiple access, multiplexing, modulation and coding techniques Cooperative communications and networking Cognitive radio and networking Autonomic Networks Software Defined Networking Network Function Virtualization Cloud Radio Access Networks Radio over Fiber Flexible optical networks Optical-Wireless communication and systems Visible light communications Internet of Things and enabling technologies Machine to Machine systems Device to Device communications Cyber Physical Systems Wireless ad-hoc Networks Wireless Sensor Networks Delay Tolerant Networks Opportunistic Networks Vehicular ad-hoc networks / connected vehicles Nanonetworks Satellite and Space communications and networking Network design, optimization, management and performance evaluation Traffic engineering, network reliability, Quality of Service / Experience Computer Systems Parallel and Distributed Computing Service Oriented Architectures and Microservices Cloud and Edge Computing High Performance Computing Distributed and Mobile Middleware Computer Architectures Microprocessors Multi-core processors Memory systems High performance I/O Big Data Analytics, Artificial Intelligence Applications and Machine Learning Software Engineering, Performance, Evaluation and Testing Verification and Validation Programming Languages Parallel Algorithms Data Storage Systems Fault tolerance, signal processing, and coding techniques Tools & Methodologies Modeling and Analysis Performance Optimization, Bounds and Models Stochastic Models Queuing Systems and Networks Neural Networks and Fuzzy Logic Applications Integrated Modeling and Measurement Mathematical Aspects and Integrated Design of Performance Verification and Validation On-Line Performance Adaptation and Tuning Parallel and Distributed Simulation Case studies, Testbed deployments, field trials and experiences Scalability Studies Special Tracks and Areas of Interest Security and Performance in Computer and Telecommunication Systems Chairs: Jean-Pierre Seifert, Altaf Shaik, Robert Buhren Data security is vital to ensure protection against cyber threats that continue to raise and diversify at a rapid speed. But often, while deploying security mechanisms, the performance of the system is affected in adverse ways. A key challenge in the design of computer and telecommunication systems is to identify a neutral ground between security and performance. Whilst the widespread of devices spanning into networks and generating countless amounts of data absolutely require high performance systems. This makes us to rethink our security systems that can guarantee a high level of performance and also an acceptable level of security. In this respect, we invite researchers and security enthusiasts to submit papers that study and analyze various issues but not limited to such as tradeoff between security and performance, new security protocols in secure communication systems. Edge Computing and Edge-enabled AI for Network Management Chairs: Paolo Bellavista, Luca Foschini, Carlo Giannelli Edge computing is rapidly emerging as the most relevant architectural approach to manage some hard and open technical challenges associated with wide-scale and quality-sensitive Internet of Things (IoT) applications, which typically exploit the elastic availability of cloud resources on the server side. EAINM specifically focuses on network quality configuration, optimization, configuration, control, and management enabled by edge computing in three-layer deployment environments (device, edge, cloud). In particular, EAINM considers as central all methodological, design, implementation, and deployment experiences that investigate digital twin creation at the cloud layer and distributed enforcement of twin control actions also at the edge, typically with complex machine learning processing at the cloud side and more lightweight digital twin execution and refinement at edge nodes. Contributions about enabling AI techniques for these architectures and practical application prototyping/deployment experiences (e.g., for manufacturing production quality control and optimized management of distributed caching) are strongly welcome. Aspects and trends of software evaluation Chairs: George Tsihrintzis, Maria Virvou Software applications are evolving rapidly and are expanding their use to all the areas of human activity by the means of all sorts of hardware, including computers, handheld devices, smart things, digital signage etc. The vast use of software in many contexts imposes the need for the development of new evaluation methodologies, frameworks and processes to address software quality characteristics that include reliability, reusability, effectiveness, correctness, accuracy and also security and privacy that conform to new law regulations. Moreover, the important software quality characteristics of usability, user friendliness and utility have to be ensured for end users of a vast range of disciplines and backgrounds. Thus, measuring and evaluating the quality of software applications has become of critical importance and should attract a lot of research energy. The aim of ASE is to address current aspects and trends of software evaluation. Modeling and Evaluation of Wireless Body Area Networks Chair: Yahya Osais Wireless Body Area Not (WBAN) are networks of medical sensors which are attached or implanted into the body of a human being or animal to monitor and control biological processes. Their performance is limited by their constrained resources and side effects such as heat. Before the full potential of WBANs can be realized, many fundamental issues must be studied using performance evaluation tools and measurements. The aim of MEWBAN is to provide the necessary insights to make the needed progress. Social Network Analysis and Performance Aspects of Socially-Aware Networking Chairs: Magdalini Eirinaki, Iraklis Varlamis, Malamati Louta The rapid development of wireless communications and the rise of social networks established a new research field that stands between telecommunications and social network theory. Smart and wearable mobile devices act as alternative gateways for participation in social networks and introduced “mobility” as a new aspect of social networking and applications. The aim of SANet is to provide a forum where researchers from the fields of Social Network Analysis and Telecommunication Systems Performance will come together, exchange ideas and generate new collaborations that bring us a step closer to Socially-Aware Networking.
