Mai 2019 04:23:43 MESZ An: tciin(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: HiPNet 2019 – Submission deadline July 15, 2019 ======================= Call for Papers ======================= 2nd International Workshop on HIGH-PRECISION NETWORKS OPERATIONS AND CONTROL (HIPNET 2019) 25 October 2019, Halifax, Canada http://www.cnsm-conf.org/2019/hipnet2019.html Co-located with the 15th International Conference on Network and Service Management (CNSM) =============================================================== --- SCOPE --- New waves of networked applications continue to push the limits of what is possible with networks today. Augmented Reality and Tactile Internet require ultra-low latency measured in single- digit milliseconds. Requirements of Industrial Internet appli- cations that involve real-time industrial control are even more stringent and tolerate no jitter at all. Compounding this situation is the fact that many of those applications are mission-critical and cannot afford any loss in connectivity or even single p ackets. Collectively, these applications require High-Precision Networks that are characterized by stringent service level boundaries and associated guarantees that border on determinism. This requires a rethinking of many of the principles underlying existing "Best Effort" internetworking technology. Several approaches trying to tackle those challenges are emerging. Data centers with fixed topologies and a constant number of hops rapidly replace conventional routing and more general Internet topologies. Networks are becoming more programmable to allow to custom-tailor and optimize treatment of packets and flows. Related technologies range from Service Function Chaining to Network Slicing to SDN. One overarching question concerns how these technologies can be harnessed and what additional approaches are needed to be able to actually deliver High-Precision Networking. This will involve advances over a wide range of areas, such as programming and processing of packets in the data plane, high-precision measurements and telemetry with nanosecond accuracy at scale, control interfaces and ultra-low latency control loops to optimize service levels, as well as advances in the related platforms and algorithms that allow for their management and control. The workshop aims to provide a forum for researchers, students and professionals from industry and academia to discuss challenges and present work-in-progress and solution approaches to deliver on High-Precision Networks and their management and control. --- TOPICS OF INTEREST --- Topics of Interest to the workshop include but are not limited to the following: - Platforms to manage and operate high-precision networks and services, e.g., Industrial Networks, Tactile Networks, Virtual/Augmented Reality (VR/AR) - Proof/validation of high-precision service level guarantees - High-precision measurement techniques for ultra-low latency and jitter - Service assurance for micro services and service function chains - Applications for Inband Network Telemetry and iOAM - High-precision networking using service function chaining - In-network service level tuning and optimization - Novel network programming models with applications in high- precision Networking - Applications of Artificial Intelligence for high-precision networking - Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) interconnect, wide-area TSN, IP and TSN convergence - SDN applications for high-precision and high-performance networking - High-precision networking over 5G - High-Precision networking services using Fog and Edge Computing - Deployment/operational experiences with Industrial Internet, Tactile Internet, networked AR --- SUBMISSION OF PAPERS --- Authors are invited to submit original unpublished papers that are not already under review elsewhere. Submissions will be subjected to a peer-review process. Papers should be prepared in IEEE 2-column format and must not exceed 6 pages. Short papers are accepted as well and must not exceed 4 pages.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Transactions on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies (ETT): Special Issue on Future Internet of Vehicles
by Lars Wolf 24 May '19

24 May '19

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Transactions on Emerging Telecommunications Technologies (ETT): Special Issue on Future Internet of Vehicles Datum: Fri, 24 May 2019 12:30:20 +0200 Von: chaker abdelaziz kerrache <ch.kerrache(a)LAGH-UNIV.DZ> Antwort an: chaker abdelaziz kerrache <ch.kerrache(a)LAGH-UNIV.DZ> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG *Aims and Scope* Thanks to the recent advancements in the fields of Internet of Things (IoT), fog computing and wireless technologies, Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are evolving towards a new environment called the Internet of Vehicle (IoV). In addition to vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-roadside (V2R) interactions, as foreseen in traditional VANETs, IoV focuses on the smart integration between humans, vehicles and things to provide not only conventional safety and infotainment applications but also advanced transportation-related services, including autonomous and green driving. Vehicles, equipped with powerful sensors platforms, multiple wireless access technologies, storage and processing resources, become smart self-organizing and cooperative entities that produce and consume data, while also participating to fog computing services. The potential of IoV has been acknowledged by the industrial and academic communities and many specifications targeting vehicular-to-everything (V2X) communications have been carried out by standard development organizations (SDO) such as IEEE, 3GPP and ETSI. However, several open challenges still hinder its actual deployment. First, IoV requires robust networking solutions able to work in stable and intermittent connectivity conditions, while also supporting ad hoc opportunistic interactions, in-network caching and data-centric applications. Revolutionary approaches, such as Information Centric Networking (ICN), could be highly beneficial, but their applicability in IoV scenarios have been only partially investigated so far. Also, the emerging Software Defined Networking (SDN) paradigm, originally designed for wired environments, could be extended to turn the IoV into a flexible and programmable network with optimized resources management. Second, it is expected that each autonomous vehicle will produce one gigabyte of data per second, including information about mobility and operation conditions and multimedia contents about the surrounding environments, e.g., from on-board safety cameras. To support big data processing, analysis and time-sensitive control mechanisms, efficient fog architectures are required. Machine learning and swarm intelligence algorithms can be integrated in the vehicular fog to further improve the service provisioning. Moreover, with the introduction of multiple access edge computing (MEC), more MEC-oriented applications are expected to work in the V2X network. To support the seamless mobility management of those MEC-enabled applications, more effective research is needed including both architectures and mechanisms. Third, IoV raises new security challenges, including the support of trustworthy and privacy preserving communications in presence of distributed and mobile entities, which could also have limited processing resources. In this context, blockchain mechanisms, which leverage a distributed ledger to allow transactions between peers in a network, without the need for a third-party or central trust medium, seem an attractive solution, but further feasibility and evaluation studies are needed in the context of IoV. This special issue solicits original technical papers addressing the main research challenges in the IoV research arena. *Topics of Interest* Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Networking solutions for V2X communications - Cloud and Edge/Fog computing for IoV - Social networks for IoV - Opportunistic IoV - Heterogeneous V2X technologies - Modeling and Simulation frameworks for IoV - Vehicular Named Data Networking (VNDN) - Big data and data analytics for V2X - MEC application-centric mobility management design in IoV - Software-Defined Intelligent Transportation Systems - Security, privacy, and trust in IoV - 5G-IoV integration - Multimedia communications in IoV over NDN and SDN - Performance, scalability, reliability and efficiency of IoV communications over NDN and SDN - NDN-based IoV clouds - Machine learning and swarm intelligence approaches for IoV - Testbeds and validation This Special Issue encourages the submission of original, high-quality papers that are not yet published or that are not currently under review by other journals or peer-reviewed conferences.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] Elsevier IoT Journal - Special Issue on Exploring the Socializing Aspect of Wearable Internet of Things (WIoT): Challenges and Trends Datum: Wed, 22 May 2019 12:00:32 +0400 Von: Dr. Razi Iqbal <razi.iqbal(a)IEEE.ORG> Antwort an: Dr. Razi Iqbal <razi.iqbal(a)IEEE.ORG> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Dear All, Please find below a call for papers for a special issue in Elsevier Internet of Things (IoT) Journal. Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS *Special Issue in Elsevier IoT* Special Issue on Exploring the Socializing Aspect of Wearable Internet of Things (WIoT): Challenges and Trends Submission Deadline: * July 31, 2019* This CFP can be seen at the website of Elsevier IoT at https://www.journals.elsevier.com/internet-of-things/call-for-papers/social… Wearable Internet of Things (WIoT) has a broader spectrum that holds all the wearable devices that are capable of communicating with each other or at least with the coordinator or sink device (these days referred to as cloud or server). The technology industry recently has a paradigm shift towards smart wearable devices that are capable of socializing with each other without explicit input from humans. These devices can be a smart wrist band that might be able to monitor the health of a person and can communicate with the physician in case of an emergency or a tracker embedded into child’s clothes that might be able to alarm parents if child leaves the house. Such socializing of these smart WIoT devices has a huge potential in various industries like HealthCare, Special Education, Engineering and Enterprise. Socializing in WIoTs are still in conceptualizing phase and require standardization, benchmarking, architectural designs, models, guidelines, policies and measurement criteria for development and deployment of applications and services. Due to wearable and mobile nature of entities in WIoT, it offers diverse set of challenges when it comes to socializing, including, but not limited to, decentralization, anonymity, security, privacy, trust management, reputation management, uncertainty and pervasiveness. Besides these challenges, several issues like scalability, reliability, adaptability and validity of available solutions are still unexplored. This special issue is expected to provide a platform for academicians and industry researchers to identify and debate technical and non-technical challenges and recent accomplishments associated with dynamic socializing of WIoT. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: · Social WIoT Architecture and Enabling Technologies · Integration, Wearability and User-acceptance of WIoT for socializing · Data Processing and Analytics for WIoT · Enabling Edge Computing in WIoT · Security, Privacy and Trust Management in Social WIoT · Social and Ethical implications of WIoT · Social Media Integration of WIoT · Social WIoT Applications and Use Case Scenarios · Communication Technologies for Socializing in WIoT · Smart Wearable IoT Devices The submitted manuscripts for this special issue will be peer-reviewed before publication.
