Some of these mission-critical applications include the utilization of ground sensor, robot and UAV networks, which are the confluence point where the traditional fields of wireless communications, robotics and control theory meet. Autonomous cooperative systems, made of intelligent devices (such as robots and UAVs), may deploy, repair and relocate sensors to improve coverage, build routes and fix network partition to ensure data communication, change network topology to shape routing patterns and balance energy consumption, and respond to reported events in a timely and effective manner. The benefits are limited only by imagination. As an emerging field, the 5G architecture foresees explicitly the usage of these specialized systems and offer new networking techniques, by which they can fully exploit their particularities and potentials. Starting from the tradition of MiSeNet and WiSARN workshops, IEEE MiSARN 2018 will aim to provide a forum for participants from academia and industry to discuss topics in mission-oriented WSNs, cyber-physical systems and UAV/Robot networking, combining both research and practice. IEEE MiSARN 2018 will serve as incubator for scientific communities that share a particular research agenda in the area of the workshops topics. IEEE MiSARN 2018 will provide its participants with opportunities to understand the major technical and application challenges of mission-oriented WSNs, cyber-physical systems and UAV/Robot networking as well as exchange and discuss scientific and engineering ideas related to their architecture, protocol, algorithm, and application design, in particular at a stage before they have matured to warrant conference/journal publications. IEEE MiSARN 2018 will seek papers that present novel theoretical and practical ideas as well as work in-progress, which will lead to the development of solid foundations for the design, analysis, and implementation of energy-efficient, reliable, and secure mission-oriented WSN applications and cyber-physical systems. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ TOPICS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Theoretical foundations, modeling and analysis of mission-oriented WSNs - System design, implementation, and evaluation of mission-oriented WSNs - Medium access control and scheduling in mission-oriented WSNs - Software architectures for mission-oriented WSNs - Self-organization, self-configuration, and energy efficiency in mission-oriented WSNs - Topology control, coverage and connectivity issues in mission-oriented WSNs - Routing and data dissemination in mission-oriented WSNs - In-network data storage and processing in mission-oriented WSNs - Sensor database management in mission-oriented WSNs - Localization, detection and tracking in mission-oriented WSNs - Cryptography, privacy, robustness, security aspects of mission-oriented WSNs - Internet and cloud computing, cloud of Things in mission-oriented WSNs - Sensor-enabled robots and drones in mission-oriented WSNs - Wearable computing and human centricity in mission-oriented WSNs - Cyber-physical systems in mission-oriented WSNs - Theoretical foundations of Cyber-Physical Systems - Signal Processing for Cyber-Physical Systems - Mechanism Design for Cyber-Physical Systems - Control and Optimization of Cyber-Physical Systems - Data Mining and Analytics Applied to Cyber-Physical Systems - Game Theory Applied to Cyber-Physical Systems - Mobile and Cloud Computing for Cyber-Physical Systems - Security of Cyber-Physical Systems - Model-Based Design and Verification of Cyber-Physical Systems - Testbed design and real-world applications of mission-oriented WSNs - Autonomous sensor networks - Emergent behavior in robotic systems - UAV-aided wireless sensor networks - Optimal control of networked robots - Robot advanced motion control - Modeling and control of fleet of UAVs - Autonomic and self-organizing coordination and communication in Robot and UAV networks - Sensor-robot and robot-robot coordination - Energy-efficient and real-time communication protocols in Robot and UAV networks - Distributed control and management for Robot and UAV network deployments - Communication protocols for swarms of mobile nodes - Map exploration and pattern formation of mobile robots - Robot task assignment - Biologically inspired communication systems for Robot and UAV networks - Software-Defined Aerial Networks - Endurance Management - Ground sensors to UAVs communication and data gathering - Context-awareness and decision making for UAV systems - Path planning, and target tracking in UAV networks ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ It is required that the manuscript follows the standard IEEE camera-ready format (double column, 10-pt font) and be submitted as PDF file (formatted for 8.5-11 inch paper) as well as the requirement set by the EDAS paper submission system.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CALL FOR PAPER and CALL FOR WORKSHOP AT SIGCOMM 2019
by Lars Wolf 10 Nov '18

10 Nov '18

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: csdwang <csdwang(a)COMP.POLYU.EDU.HK> Gesendet: 10. November 2018 14:43:48 MEZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CALL FOR PAPER and CALL FOR WORKSHOP AT SIGCOMM 2019 CALL FOR PAPER and CALL FOR WORKSHOP AT SIGCOMM 2019 -------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPER AT SIGCOMM 2019 The ACM SIGCOMM 2019 conference seeks papers making significant research contributions to the field of data communication networks and networked systems. The conference takes a broad view of networking research, which includes new ideas relating (but not limited) to: . Different network types, layers, and devices: o Wide-area, data-center, home, enterprise o Sensors and Internet of Things o Network access in remote or under-served areas o Wireless and mobility o Routers, middleboxes, network functions, end-host network stacks o Link and transport layers o Applications, including distributed systems and social networks o Virtual networks and SDNs o Future network architectures: clean slate and evolution . Aspects and properties of networks: o Correctness and performance o Security and privacy o Fault tolerance o Energy consumption o Usability o Emergent properties o Management o Resource allocation, provisioning and planning o Economics o Topology . Different evaluation methods: o Theory o Experiments o Measurement o Deployment and experience We expect submissions to be daring and emphasize novelty and creativity. We recognize that more novel concepts can be harder to fully develop and evaluate, and the review process will take this into account. We encourage authors to discuss the limitations of their ideas in addition to the benefits. Unlike some previous years, SIGCOMM 2019 will not have a separate experience track. However, we do encourage the submission of experience papers, particularly from industry, that provide detailed technical insight into real-world deployments of novel networking technologies and systems. In addition to the main conference, SIGCOMM 2019 will have a series of co-located workshops, tutorials, poster and demo sessions, a travel grant program, and conference best paper and SIGCOMM awards. For more information about SIGCOMM 2019, please see https://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2019/. Submissions Submissions should report novel results that are supported by experimentation, deployment, simulation, or analysis. Submissions must be in 2-column, 10-point format and can be up to 12 pages long, with as many additional pages as necessary for references. New in 2019: Submissions and final papers may include appendices (following references, also not counting against the 12 pages). Appendices will not be considered in reviews, so we caution authors to ensure that the core paper is complete and self-contained. (For example, if the appendix provides details of a proof or experiment, the body should summarize the key result.) For accepted papers, the shepherd will review appendices and must approve their need. Appendices may also include non-traditional material, such as videos, datasets, code, etc. Detailed submission instructions can be found https://conferences.sigcomm.org/sigcomm/2019/submission.html. Ethical Concerns New in 2019: All papers must include, in the main body of the paper, a statement about ethical issues. This could be simply the sentence "This work does not raise any ethical issues." If the work involves human subjects or any potentially sensitive data (e.g., user traffic or social network information, evaluation of censorship, etc), the paper should clearly discuss these issues, perhaps in a separate subsection. Papers must follow basic precepts of ethical research and subscribe to community norms. These include: respect for privacy, secure storage of sensitive data, voluntary and informed consent if users are placed at risk, avoiding deceptive practices when not essential, beneficence (maximizing the benefits to an individual or to society while minimizing potential harms to an individual), and risk mitigation. Authors may want to consult the Menlo Report for further information on ethical principles, and they may find the Allman/Paxson paper in IMC 2007 helpful for a perspective on ethical data sharing. Many organizations have an ethics review process (sometimes called an Institutional Research Board, IRB). In some cases, research work may clearly have no human subjects, and formal institutional review may not be required. (However, a sentence in the paper stating this evaluation is still required.) In many cases, IRB involvement is appropriate. IRB approval of research is an important factor (and should be mentioned), but the TPC will still evaluate ethical soundness of the work, just as they evaluate technical soundness. If there are questions about the ethics process, please contact the program committee co-chairs. The PC takes a broad view of what constitutes an ethical concern, and the TPC chairs may reach out to authors during the review process if questions arise. Research Reproducibility ACM is promoting research reproducibility by encouraging papers to document the artifacts needed for others to reproduce their work. ACM has details at https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/artifact-review-badging. They will award accepted papers a â€œreproducibility badgeâ€ if the paper provides pointers to public code and other information as described at the above link. Authors who wish to participate in this process should document such information in an appendix to the paper. Information about reproducibility is not required at paper submission, but is required at camera ready. As an appendix, it will need to be provided to the shepherd with adequate time for review. While we encourage authors to participate, formal participation is not a factor in SIGCOMM reviewing. Important dates January 24, 2019, Abstract submission deadline January 31, 2019, Paper submission deadline May 10, 2019, Reviews returned to authors June 20, 2019, Camera-ready papers due August 19, 2019, Conference -------------------------------------- CALL FOR WORKSHOP AT SIGCOMM 2019 SIGCOMM 2019 plans to hold multiple one-day workshops in conjunction with the conference, to be held in Beijing, China, August 19-23, 2019. Workshops will take place on Monday, August 19 and Friday, August 23.

Fwd: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE INFOCOM 2019 Workshop on Ultra-Low Latency in Wireless Networks (ULLWN)

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP: IEEE INFOCOM 2019 Workshop on Ultra-Low Latency in Wireless Networks (ULLWN) Datum: Mon, 5 Nov 2018 14:48:11 +0000 Von: Nikolaos Pappas <nikolaos.pappas(a)LIU.SE> Antwort an: Nikolaos Pappas <nikolaos.pappas(a)LIU.SE> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Call for Papers IEEE INFOCOM 2019 Workshop on Ultra-Low Latency in Wireless Networks (ULLWN) Paris, France April 29, 2019 In order to handle the ever-increasing traffic load, existing wireless networks have typically been designed and planned with a focus on improving throughput and increasing coverage. Achieving ultra-low latencies – often together with unprecedented levels of reliability, has not been in the mainstream in most wireless networks, due to the focus on human-centric communications and delay-tolerant content. However, a plethora of socially useful applications and new uses of wireless communication are envisioned in areas such as augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR), industrial control, automated driving or flying, mission-critical IoT, remote robotics, smart grid and tactile Internet. In response, new releases of mobile cellular networks (mainly focusing on 5G new radio and beyond) are envisaged to support scenarios with extremely strict requirements in terms of latency (ranging from 1 ms and below to few milliseconds end-to-end latency depending on the use cases). Low latency communication poses significant theoretical and practical challenges, requiring a departure from throughput-oriented system design towards a holistic view (network architecture, control, and data) for guaranteed and reliable end-to-end latency. Cooperative networking can maintain the robustness of network connectivity, since in cooperation, wireless nodes assist each other for improved connectivity and increased diversity. Most present systems employ centralized resource allocation, which is inappropriate for such applications though, as it relies on a significant control-layer overhead and incurs severe latency. The ULWWN workshop will be held in Paris on April 29, 2019, in conjunction with IEEE INFOCOM 2019. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: * Low latency communication in mission-critical and emergency applications * Cooperative networks for achieving ultra-low latencies * Buffer-aided cooperative networks with stringent delay constraints * Fundamental limits, performance analysis, network theoretic approaches (e.g. stochastic network calculus, timely throughput) * Anticipatory network models for low-latency networking * Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence for achieving ultra-low latencies * Edge caching and content replication for low latency * Network slicing and network function virtualization * Applications * Factory automation and industrial control * Tactile Internet * Industry 4.0 * Intelligent transportation * V2X communications * Remote robotics * Smart grid * eHealth * Mobile edge cloud computing * Safety-critical avionics The proposed workshop will provide a forum where researchers, technical experts, and practitioners could share the latest results and insights on how to achieve ultra-low latencies in wireless networks. In addition to presenting key and emerging results, the workshop (through its keynote, panel and regular sessions) is expected to identify new challenges and opportunities in this area. Submission Guidelines The ULLWN Workshop calls for original and unpublished papers no longer than 6 pages. The review process is single blind. The manuscripts should be formatted in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font) and be submitted as PDF files (formatted for 8.5x11 inch paper). Manuscripts should be submitted as PDF files through the EDAS website. Important dates Submission: December 30th, 2018 Decisions: February 22nd, 2019 Camera ready: March 10th, 2019 Workshop Organizers Prof. Nikolaos Pappas (Linkoping University, Sweden) Prof. Themistoklis Charalambous (Aalto University, Finland) Dr. Marios Kountouris (Huawei Technologies, France) ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Objects need to be smart, with enough intelligence to perform required operations. On the one hand, the objects should be able to deal with the possibly unpredictable and intense mobility and can wirelessly communicate with each other in a reliable and secure way. On the other hand, these objects must be socially aware, as we have witnessed a big growth in provisioning social network services including messaging, gaming, advertising, recommending, commercing, and content sharing on mobile objects. The HotSALSA workshop focuses on experiences with the design, implementation, deployment, operation, and evaluation of novel systems for smart objects and the social aspects of these systems in the emerging cooperative environments. We are seeking for original, previously unpublished work, addressing key issues and challenges in the social and mobile connected smart objects arena. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - App concepts and algorithm design for mobile social applications and systems - Drone coordination and aerial communication - Interaction between mobile devices and cars - Location- and tracking-based mobile services and social networking - Measurement of social aspects in mobile systems and applications - Mobile centric social networking - Mobile edge/fog computing and networking - Mobile online advertising and payment - Pervasive and ubiquitous mobile social services - Playful social interaction: game, entertainment, and multimedia in mobile applications - Reputation, incentives, and economics in mobile systems - Security and privacy in mobility-aware mobile social networks - Sensors and data collection for social networking applications - Smart cities and urban applications - Social aspects of Mobile AR/VR - User behavior analysis in mobile applications - Wearable devices and computing Authors are encouraged to submit papers describing original and unpublished research, not currently under review in other venues, addressing state-of-the-art research and development in all aspects of mobile computing, social networks, or the intersection of both. In particular, innovative, early-stage ideas and preliminary results are welcome. The length of the paper must be no more than 6 pages in the IEEE double-column format, including references. The first page must contain an abstract, the name(s) and affiliation(s) of the author(s). Each submission will receive at least three independent, single-blind peer reviews from the program committee. At least one of the authors of every accepted paper must register and present the paper at the workshop. The program committee will select one paper for the Best Paper Award.
